a Cash cannot be combined with cash equivalents b Restricted cash fund may be combined with Cash c Cash is listed first in the current assets section d Restricted cash funds cannot be reported as a current asset 7-65 LO Key Points 7-66  The fraud triangle discussed in this chapter is applicable to all international companies Some of the major frauds on an international basis are Parmalat (Italy), Royal Ahold (the Netherlands), and Satyam Computer Services (India)  Rising economic crime poses a growing threat to companies, with 34% of all organizations worldwide being victims of fraud in a recent 12month period The survey data shows that the incidence of economic crime varies by industry sector, some (notably insurance, governmental, hospitality and leisure, and financial services) reporting higher levels of fraud than others; and by size and type of organization LO Compare the accounting procedures for fraud, internal control, and cash under GAAP and IFRS Key Points 7-67  Accounting scandals both in the United States and internationally have re-ignited the debate over the relative merits of GAAP, which takes a “rules-based” approach to accounting, versus IFRS, which takes a “principles-based” approach The FASB announced that it intends to introduce more principles-based standards  Internal controls are a system of checks and balances designed to prevent and detect fraud and errors While most companies have these systems in place, many have never completely documented them, nor had an independent auditor attest to their effectiveness Both of these actions are required under SOX LO Key Points 7-68  Companies find that internal control review is a costly process but badly needed One study estimates the cost of SOX compliance for U.S companies at over $35 billion, with audit fees doubling in the first year of compliance At the same time, examination of internal controls indicates lingering problems in the way companies operate One study of first compliance with the internal control testing provisions documented material weaknesses for about 13% of companies reporting in a twoyear period (PricewaterhouseCoopers’ Global Economic Crime Survey, 2005)  The SOX internal control standards apply only to companies listed on U.S exchanges There is continuing debate over whether foreign issuers should have to comply with this extra layer of regulation LO Key Points 7-69  The accounting and internal control procedures related to cash are essentially the same under both IFRS and this textbook In addition, the definition used for cash equivalents is the same  Most companies report cash and cash equivalents together under IFRS, as shown in this textbook In addition, IFRS follows the same accounting policies related to the reporting of restricted cash  IFRS defines cash and cash equivalents as follows ► Cash is comprised of cash on hand and demand deposits ► Cash equivalents are short-term, highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value LO Looking to the Future Different cultures have different perspectives on bribery and other questionable activities, and consequently penalties for engaging in such activities vary considerably across countries High-quality international accounting requires both high-quality accounting standards and high-quality auditing Similar to the convergence of GAAP and IFRS, there is movement to improve international auditing standards The International Auditing and Assurance Standards Board (IAASB) functions as an independent standard-setting body It works to establish high-quality auditing and assurance and quality-control standards throughout the world Whether the IAASB adopts internal control provisions similar to those in SOX remains to be seen Under proposed new standards for financial statements, companies would not be allowed to combine cash equivalents with cash 7-70 LO IFRS Self-Test Questions Non-U.S companies that follow IFRS: a not normally use the principles of internal control activities described in this textbook b often offset cash with accounts payable on the balance sheet c are not required to follow SOX d None of the above 7-71 LO IFRS Self-Test Questions Which of the following is the correct accounting under IFRS for cash? a Cash cannot be combined with cash equivalents b Restricted cash funds may be reported as a current or noncurrent asset depending on the circumstances c Restricted cash funds cannot be reported as a current asset d Cash on hand is not reported on the balance sheet as Cash 7-72 LO IFRS Self-Test Questions Sarbanes-Oxley Act applies to: a all U.S companies listed on U.S exchanges b all companies that list stock on any stock exchange in any country c all European companies listed on European exchanges d Both (a) and (c) 7-73 LO Copyright “Copyright © 2014 John Wiley & Sons, Inc All rights reserved Reproduction or translation of this work beyond that permitted in Section 117 of the 1976 United States Copyright Act without the express written permission of the copyright owner is unlawful Request for further information should be addressed to the Permissions Department, John Wiley & Sons, Inc The purchaser may make back-up copies for his/her own use only and not for distribution or resale The Publisher assumes no responsibility for errors, omissions, or damages, caused by the use of these programs or from the use of the information contained herein.” 7-74 ...Preview of Chapter Financial Accounting Ninth Edition Weygandt Kimmel Kieso 7-2 Fraud, Internal Control, and Cash Learning Objectives After studying this chapter, you should be able...
