Answer to Question 2

A very important aspect of any financial accounting system, either for an individual or for a business enterprise, is the accurate and efficient management of assets. The handling of assets in a manner that will prevent employees from stealing cash funds is known as internal control. Internal control is the system of policies and procedures that is designed to protect assets against fraud and waste, provide for accurate accounting data, promote efficient operation, and encourage adherence to management polices.
