(a) Auditors have a responsibility under ISA 265 Communicating Deficiencies in Internal Co

(a) Auditors have a responsibility under ISA 265 Communicating Deficiencies in Internal Control to those Charged with Governance and Management, to communicate deficiencies in internal controls. In particular SIGNIFICANT deficiencies in internal controls must be communicated in writing to those charged with governance.

Required:

Explain examples of matters the auditor should consider in determining whether a deficiency in internal controls is significant. (5 marks)

Greystone Co is a retailer of ladies clothing and accessories. It operates in many countries around the world and has expanded steadily from its base in Europe. Its main market is aimed at 15 to 35 year olds and its prices are mid to low range. The company’s year end was 30 September 2010.

In the past the company has bulk ordered its clothing and accessories twice a year. However, if their goods failed to meet the key fashion trends then this resulted in significant inventory write downs. As a result of this the company has recently introduced a just in time ordering system. The fashion buyers make an assessment nine months in advance as to what the key trends are likely to be, these goods are sourced from their suppliers but only limited numbers are initially ordered.

Greystone Co has an internal audit department but at present their only role is to perform. regular inventory counts at the stores.

Ordering process

Each country has a purchasing manager who decides on the initial inventory levels for each store, this is not done in conjunction with store or sales managers. These quantities are communicated to the central buying department at the head office in Europe. An ordering clerk amalgamates all country orders by specified regions of countries, such as Central Europe and North America, and passes them to the purchasing director to review and authorise.

As the goods are sold, it is the store manager’s responsibility to re-order the goods through the purchasing manager; they are prompted weekly to review inventory levels as although the goods are just in time, it can still take up to four weeks for goods to be received in store.

It is not possible to order goods from other branches of stores as all ordering must be undertaken through the purchasing manager. If a customer requests an item of clothing, which is unavailable in a particular store, then the customer is provided with other branch telephone numbers or recommended to try the company website.

Goods received and Invoicing

To speed up the ordering to receipt of goods cycle, the goods are delivered directly from the suppliers to the individual stores. On receipt of goods the quantities received are checked by a sales assistant against the supplier’s delivery note, and then the assistant produces a goods received note (GRN). This is done at quiet times of the day so as to maximise sales. The checked GRNs are sent to head office for matching with purchase invoices.

As purchase invoices are received they are manually matched to GRNs from the stores, this can be a very time consuming process as some suppliers may have delivered to over 500 stores. Once the invoice has been agreed then it is sent to the purchasing director for authorisation. It is at this stage that the invoice is entered onto the purchase ledger.

Required:

(b) As the external auditors of Greystone Co, write a report to management in respect of the purchasing system which:

(i) Identifies and explains FOUR deficiencies in that system;

(ii) Explains the possible implication of each deficiency;

(iii) Provides a recommendation to address each deficiency.

A covering letter is required.

Note: Up to two marks will be awarded within this requirement for presentation. (14 marks)

(c) Describe substantive procedures the auditor should perform. on the year-end trade payables of Greystone Co. (5 marks)

(d) Describe additional assignments that the internal audit department of Greystone Co could be asked to perform. by those charged with governance. (6 marks)

Notes

1 The fabric is regularly used by HL Co. There are currently 300 m2 in inventory, which cost $17 per m2. The current purchase price of the fabric is $17·50 per m2.

2 This type of wood is regularly used by HL Co and usually costs $8·20 per m2. However, the company’s current supplier’s earliest delivery time for the wood is in three weeks’ time. An alternative supplier could deliver immediately but they would charge $8·50 per m2. HL Co already has 500 m2 in inventory but 480 m2 of this is needed to complete other existing orders in the next two weeks. The remaining 20 m2 is not going to be needed until four weeks’ time.

3 The skilled labour force is employed under permanent contracts of employment under which they must be paid for 40 hours’ per week’s labour, even if their time is idle due to absence of orders. Their rate of pay is $16 per hour, although any overtime is paid at time and a half. In the next two weeks, there is spare capacity of 150 labour hours.

4 There is no spare capacity for semi-skilled workers. They are currently paid $12 per hour or time and a half for overtime. However, a local agency can provide additional semi-skilled workers for $14 per hour.

5 The $3 absorption rate is HL Co’s standard factory overhead absorption rate; $1·50 per hour reflects the cost of the factory supervisor’s salary and the other $1·50 per hour reflects general factory costs. The supervisor is paid an annual salary and is also paid $15 per hour for any overtime he works. He will need to work 20 hours’ overtime if this order is accepted.

6 This is an apportionment of the general administration overheads incurred by HL Co. Required: Prepare, on a relevant cost basis, the lowest cost estimate which could be used as the basis for the quotation. Explain briefly your reasons for including or excluding each of the costs in your estimate.
