Material Audit Adjustments Condition: The audit firm proposed, and the Organization approved corrections of certain misstatements. Criteria The Organization should have controls in place to prevent and detect a material misstatement in the financial statements in a timely manner. Management is responsible for the accuracy and completeness of all financial records and related information. Their responsibility includes adjusting the financial statements to correct material misstatements. Cause: The Organization has not established controls to ensure that all accounts are adjusted to their appropriate year-end balances in accordance with GAAP. Effect: The design of internal control over completeness and accuracy of financial records could adversely affect the Organization’s ability to detect misstatements in amounts that would be material in relation to the financial statements in a timely period by employees in the normal course of performing their assigned functions. Recommendation: The Organization should continue to evaluate its internal controls processes to determine if additional internal control procedures should be implemented to ensure that accounts are adjusted to their appropriate year end balances in accordance with GAAP.
