...Ch 7 control and accounting information system Explain how the principle of separation of duties is violated in each of the following situations. Also, suggest one or more procedures to reduce the risk and exposure highlighted in each example. a. A payroll clerk recorded a 40-hour workweek for an employee who had quit the previous week. He then prepared a paycheck for this employee, forged her signature, and cashed the check. PROBLEM: Segregation of duties is violated here because the payroll clerk had the ability to record time worked and to prepare the payroll check (custody). This allowed the payroll clerk to both commit and conceal the fraud. The payroll clerk ignored the authorization process or had the authority to authorize the payment. SOLUTION: These three functions should be segregated. One person should authorize payments, another should record the payments, a third should prepare the check, and a fourth should sign it. b. While opening the mail, a cashier set aside, and subsequently cashed, two checks payable to the company on account. PROBLEM: The cashier who opened the mail had custody of the cash. The cashier opening the mail can pocket the checks and forge a signature, never giving the authorized endorser a chance to be involved. For this reason, many companies have the mail opened by two people or have...

...Running head: PROBLEM SOLUTION: COASTAL COUNTY CLERK OF COURT. Problem Solution: Coastal County Clerk of Court University of Phoenix Problem Solution: Coastal County Clerk of Court A competitive situation within Coastal County Clerk of Court’s offices has created animosity and distrust between employees and new Clerk Stan Accord. The organization has the opportunity to make the changes necessary to meet the desired end-state goals through mediation, scheduling changes, and outsourcing of computer data and storage. The organization can realize these changes with minimal emotional response by employees and management through careful meditation of the situation that has not occurred to this point. County residents will find the new organization provides more services than before in a more flexible format. Describe the Situation Issue and Opportunity Identification Throughout the scenario the idea of discrimination comes into play with multiple parties. Discrimination is perceived between Stan and Dennis, Stan and Dan, as well as perceptions of female employees. The next issue is Dennis taking a competitive stance against Stan believing he can perform the functions with a better understanding of the needs of the community. The final issue at hand deals with the lack of mediation or arbitration used between the parties. Instead the parties decided to handle issues publicly and with high emotional tolls on both sides.

...When reviewing the information provided by both employees and supervisors, a team composed of the HR Manager, the Director of Administration, and an outside consultant noted that several duties associated with maintaining customer service records were divided among three employees. This often led to delays in recording customer payments and scheduling repair services. The team regrouped the various customer service duties so that two of the employees performed complete but different functions. Filing activities were concentrated with the third employee, who also served as backup for the other two. Recruiting and Selection Equal employment opportunity guidelines clearly require a sound and comprehensive job analysis to validate recruiting and selection criteria. Without a systematic investigation of a job, an employer may be using requirements that are not specifically job related. For example, if a medical clinic requires a high school diploma for a medical records clerk job, the firm must be able to justify how such an educational requirement matches up to the tasks, duties, and responsibilities of that job. It must be able to show that the knowledge, skills, and abilities needed by the medical records clerk could be obtained only through formal education. rganizations use job analysis to identify job specifications in order to plan how and where to obtain employees for anticipated job openings, whether recruited internally or externally. For example, a job analysis for...

...convenience store chain with more than 53,500 stores in 16 countries, of which close to 10,400 are in North America” (7 Eleven, 2014, para. 1). As the world’s leading convenience store, 7 Eleven needs to provide accessible goods to customers and a strong level of customer service. The episode of Undercover Boss detailing the 7 Eleven franchises demonstrated that there are multiple positions necessitated to keep stores running efficiently. The first position detailed was a store clerk. The next position that was explored was the delivery truck driver. Although these positions differ, both are necessitated in order to maintain the world’s largest convenient store. The role of the store clerk and the role of the delivery truck driver will be compared to determine what similarities exist. A job description will then be created in order to recruit new employees. Finally, the position of store clerk will be explored to demonstrate how this position adheres to federal laws. Comparison of Positions The episode detailed two main positions. The first position was the store clerk. The clerk was required to stock shelves, make coffee, ring up customers and ensure that customers could find everything they were looking for (YouTube, n.d.). In addition, the store clerk worked closely with the store manager to address things that may go wrong in the store. The second position that was detailed in the episode was driving the delivery truck. The delivery truck driver was responsible for making...

Lori Cook, manager of the Winter Park Hotel, is considering how to restructure the front desk to reach an optimum level of staff efficiency and guest service. At present, the hotel has five clerks on duty, each with a separate waiting line, during peak check-in time of 3:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m. Observation of arrivals during this period shows that an average of 90 guests arrive each hour (although there is no upward limit on the number that could arrive at any given time). It takes an average of 3 minutes for the front-desk to register each guest. Ms. Cook is considering three plans for improving guest service by reducing the length of time that guests spend waiting in line. The first proposal would designate one employee as a quick-service clerk for guests registering under corporate accounts, a market segment that fills about 30% of all occupied rooms. Because corporate guests are preregistered, their registration takes just 2 minutes. With these guests separated...
