AI Summary

  • Answer: There is a lack of proper segregation of duties, allowing one employee to control multiple incompatible functions.
  • Trend: This issue could lead to increased risk of errors or fraud in handling cash, receipts, payroll, and journal entries.
  • List: Recommend reviewing and redistributing responsibilities to ensure no single employee has control over conflicting duties.

Finding Text

One important aspect of the internal control structure is the segregation of duties among employees to prevent an individual employee from handling duties which are incompatible. We noted one individual has control over portions of one or more of the following areas for the District relating to major federal programs; cash, receipts, payroll and journal entries. See finding II-A-22.
