Unreliable Property, Plant and Equipment account balances and non-compliance with property rules

The municipality cannot verify its reported property and equipment balance of about ₱419 million because it did not conduct timely physical counts, update property ledgers, or register vehicles, and it improperly capitalized some low-value items. Many required fixes have not been done.

Unreliable inventory accounts due to non-application of Perpetual Inventory Method

Understated Cash in Local Treasury due to unrecorded returned cash advance

Over and under Pag-IBIG remittances caused by delayed payroll documents

Over and under remittances to GSIS and unsubstantiated year-end balance

Severity: HighRecommendation: Implemented

The municipality still had incorrect GSIS remittances, and its year-end Due to GSIS balance did not match the next month's remittance, so the reported liability could not be verified.
