What Happened?

Category: Financial ManagementIssue: Non-compliance

The agency's recorded cash balances did not match the actual cash in bank because some checks were not recorded, petty cash was not properly replenished, and stale checks were not returned to the cash account. This caused cash and cash equivalents to be understated by about 2.47 million pesos.
