Finding Text

Criteria: Bank reconciliations are important to the Organization’s internal control and are used to ensure all cash transactions are recorded and to help identify errors. Condition: Bank reconciliations were not performed for any of the Organization’s bank accounts during the year ended June 30, 2025. Cause: The Organization did not allocate adequate resources of qualified accounting personnel to the task of completing and reconciling bank accounts of the Organization to its QuickBooks financial records. Effect: The auditors identified several misstatements in the initial financial records, which necessitated adjusting journal entries to ensure the accuracy of the financial statements. Recommendation: Additional resources should be allocated to accounting so that the bank reconciliations are completed for all accounts every month in a timely manner.

Corrective Action Plan

The Organization will begin performing bank reconciliations for all accounts held by the Organization to ensure accuracy between bank statement balances and amounts recorded in QuickBooks. The Organization will also look into hiring an independent accountant to assist with financial statement preparation.
