3. Event Identification: identifying internal and external event that affect the entity.
4. Risk Assessment: analyzing risk, the potential impact.
5. Risk Response: responding risk and identified events.
6. Control Activities: policies and procedures effect risk responses.
7. Information and Communication: flow infomation to support the other 7 components.
8. Monitoring
Control and Exposures: exposure consist of the potential financial effect of an event
multiplied by its probability occurance. Control tend to reduce exposures, but controls rarely
affect the causes of exposures.
Common exposure:
a. Excessive cost: reduce the profits and every exp is potentially excessive.
b. Deficient Revenue
c. Loss of asset: may be lost due to theft, act of violents or natural disasters.
d. Inaccurate accounting: may be cause of error
e. Business interruption: may result from excessive operating exposure.
f. Statutory Sanctions: include any penalties that arise from judicial or regulatory
authorities.
g. Competitive Disadvatages: inability to remain viable in the marketplace.
h. Fraud and Embezzlement: may be from outsider or insider. The other common
exposure may all result from fraud and embezzlement.

card fraud, false invoice, theft, AR manipulation, false financial statements, diversion
of service, phantom vendors, purchase of personal use diversion of sales, unnecessary
purchase, vandalism and sabotage.
Computer Processing and Exposure: ability to iincrease an organizations exposure, the
aspects like mechanical processing data, mechanical data storage.
Control Objectives and Transaction Cycles: common cycle of businnes actity are, revenue
cycle, expenditure cycle, production cycle, amd finance cycle. Management should develop
detailed control objectives for each transaction cycle.
THE COMPONENTS OF INTERNAL CONTROL PROCESS

The objectives of internal control: (1) reliability of financial reporting (2) effectiveness and
efficiency (3) compliance with applicable laws and regulations. External influences

d. Organizational Structure: patterns of authority and responsibility that exist within
the organization.
e. Functions of the board of directors and its committees: stockholeders exercise
control over management through the functions of the board of directors and its
committees. The audit committee should be independent of an organization’s
management composed primarily of outside members of the board directors.Audit
committee should be charged with reviewing management’s reaction to public
accountants report on the organization’s internal control process.
f. Manner of assigning authority and responsibility: indicating from formal

obbjectives. Identifying internal and exterbal changes related the entity.
3. Control Activities: policies and procedures established to help ensure that
management directive are carried out. The specific control activities are:
a. Segregation of Duties: reducing opportunities to allow any person to be in position
to both perpetrate and conceal errors or irregularities in the normal course of his or
her duties.
b. Adequate documents and records: helpin ensure proper recording of transactions
and events. Items should be prenumbered in sequential order to facilitate
accountability.
c. Restricted access to assets: permitted only in accordance with management
authoritization.
d. Independent accountability checks and reviews of perfomance: the recorded
accountability for assets should be compared with the existing assets at reasonable
intervals and appropriate action taken with respect to any difference.
e. Information processing controls: ensuring proper authorization, accuracy and
completeness of individual transactions.
4. Information and Communication: consists methods and record established to identify,

assemble, analyze, classify, record and report the organization. Information system

actions when necessary to ensure the control remain effective. Guidance of
monitoring internal control systems:
- Establish foudation for monitoring
- Design and excute monitoring procedures that are based on risk
- Assess and report the results.
TRANSACTION PROCESSING CONTROL, are procedures designed to ensure the

elements of an organizations internal control process are implemented in the spesific
applications system contained within each of an organization transaction cycle.
General Control, comprise the following:
- The plan of data processing organization
- General operating procedures
- Equipment control features
- Equipment and data acsess control
Application Controls are specific to individual applications. Application control are
categorized into input, processing and output controls.
Preventative, Detective, and Corrective Controls:
- Preventative act to prevent errors and fraud before they happen
- Detective act to uncover errors and fraud after they have occured
- Corrective act to correct errors.
ANALYSIS OF INTERNAL CONTROL PROCESS, requiring an understanding of the
process both as it is designed and as it actually operates.
The internal questionnare is a common analytic techniques used in internal control analysis.
Analytic flowchart might be used in internal control analysi, particularly if the analysis
involves a computer system application. A matrix can be used systematically evaluate an
analysis or the other type of flowchart by listing sequence of operations.
Internal Control and Compliance in Small Business and Small Public Companies
The small business has no independent IT or internal audit department, and in many cases is
run by managers with no accounting educations or financial expertise. Further, the small
member of employee typically makes traditional segregation of duties. The COSO give
suggestion to small business in cases:
a. Leadership Involvement: a leader can actively oversee and be involved in all
operations and the financial reporting process.
b. Effective Board of Directors
c. Limited Segregation of Duties and Increased Focus on Monitoring: this can be
accomplished by management’s focusing more observing employee, reviewing
reports, investigating unsual transaction and so on.
