Questions Requiring Analysis 12-21<br />

Nolan Manufacturing Company retains you on April 1 to perform an<br />

audit for the fiscal year ending June 30. During the month of May, you<br />

make extensive studies of internal control over inventories.<br />

All goods purchased pass through a receiving department under the<br />

direction of the chief purchasing agent. The duties of the receiving<br />

department are to unpack, count, and inspect the goods. The quantity<br />

received is compared with the quantity shown on the receiving<br />

department’s copy of the purchase order. If there is no discrepancy, the<br />

purchase order is stamped “OK—Receiving Dept.” and forwarded to the<br />

accounts payable section of the accounting department. Any<br />

discrepancies in quantity or variations from specifications are called to<br />

the attention of the buyer by returning the purchase order to him with<br />

an explanation of the circumstances. No records are maintained in the<br />

receiving department, and no reports originate there.


As soon as goods have been inspected and counted in the<br />

receiving department, they are sent to the factory production area and<br />

stored alongside the machines in which they are to be processed.<br />

Finished goods are moved from the assembly line to a storeroom in the<br />

custody of a stock clerk, who maintains a perpetual inventory record in<br />

terms of physical units, but not in dollars.<br />

What weaknesses, if any, do you see in the internal control over<br />

inventories?<br />

Problem 12-35<br />

Described below are potential financial statement misstatements that<br />

are encountered by auditors.<br />

Inventory is understated because warehouse personnel overlooked<br />

several racks of parts in taking the physical inventory.<br />

Inventory is overstated because warehouse personnel included<br />

inventory items received subsequent to year-end while recording the<br />

purchase in the subsequent year to hide inventory shortages.<br />

Inventory is overstated because management instructed computer<br />

personnel to make changes in the file used to price inventories.<br />

Questions Requiring Analysis 13-31<br />

You are part of the audit team that is auditing Happy Chicken, Inc., a<br />

company that franchises Happy Chicken family restaurants. During the<br />

current year, management of Happy Chicken purchased for $2 million<br />

one of its franchised locations, a store that was having financial<br />

difficulties. In performing its analysis for impairment of assets at yearend,<br />

management of Happy Chicken determined that the carrying value


of the asset may not be recoverable. As a result, management<br />

developed an estimate of the fair value of the location using a<br />

discounted cash flow model. The estimated fair value of the location<br />

was determined to be $1.5 million, which resulted in an impairment<br />

loss of about $500,000. The undiscounted future cash flows are equal<br />

to $1.7 million.<br />

Problem 13-34<br />

The following are typical questions that might appear on an internal<br />

control questionnaire relating to plant and equipment:<br />

Are subsidiary ledgers for plant and equipment regularly reconciled<br />

with general ledger controlling accounts?<br />

State the purpose of each of the above controls.<br />

Describe the manner in which each of the above procedures might be<br />

tested.<br />

Assuming that the operating effectiveness of each of the above<br />

procedures is found to be inadequate, describe how the auditors might<br />

alter their substantive procedures to compensate for the increased<br />

level of risks of material misstatements.
