QUESTION 1 45 MARKS
Part A
You are a junior internal auditor at Caterers Limited. The company’s financial year-
end is 31 July 2020. In late June you are informed by your internal audit manager,
that you will be part of the audit team attending the inventory count and that you will
assist with certain other aspects of the inventory audit.
The internal audit team has gathered the following information:
a) The company’s head office is located on the West Rand, but the inventory outlet is
a single, very large “warehouse-type” space in a shopping centre on the East Rand.
The space consists of a showroom and an adjoining warehouse. The internal
control process is sound.
b) The company sells a large range of general catering equipment and kitchen
appliances. Large quantities of inventory are held.
c) A well-designed computerised perpetual inventory system is maintained and
physical control over the inventory is efficient, the only weakness being, in the
internal audit team’s opinion, that cycle counts are not conducted. Other than
fridges, stoves, etc on the shop floor, inventory is kept in its original packaging.
The warehouse is well laid out, with different appliances being kept in designated
areas and stacked by make and model. Despite the sound controls, inventory does
get damaged and dented and there are always items which do not sell as well as
expected.
d) The year-end inventory count is planned for the close of business (4.00 pm) on
31 July 2020.
e) The directors are anxious that the financial situation of the company be presented
as favourably as possible.
f) The company holds an extensive line of expensive cooking pots on consignment
for Modernpots CC. It does not sell any other cooking pots.
g) The method for counting inventory will be as follows:
• Sequenced inventory count sheets will be printed from the inventory Masterfile,
but will reveal only the inventory item number, description and location of the
inventory. The theoretical quantity on hand will not be shown
• The warehouse will be divided into 10 designated areas, with 10 teams of two
people performing the count per area.
• As each item is counted, the first person will attach a bright pink label to it and
the second person will record the quantity of the items counted on the inventory
sheet.
