Category: Financial ManagementIssue: Non-compliance

The amount of property and equipment recorded in NHA's books does not match what was actually found during physical counting. The difference was about P132 million in 2024 and P49.5 million in 2023, meaning the records are inaccurate and need to be reconciled.

Why It Matters

Recommended Actions

  • Perform regular and timely reconciliation between the accounting records and Reports on Physical Count of Property, Plant and Equipment/Inventory and Inspection Report of Unserviceable Properties (RPCPPE/IIRUP) in accordance with the relevant COA Circular to promptly address any discrepancies
