A&V Safety, Inc. (Manual and Standalone Computer Processing)

(Prepared by Adam Johnson and Aneesh Varma, Lehigh University)

A&V Safety, Inc., is a growing company specializing in the sales of safety equipment to commercial entities. It currently employs 200 full-time employees all of whom work out of its headquarters in San Diego, California. During the summer, the company expands to include about ten summer interns who are delegated smaller jobs and other errands. A&V currently competes with Office Safety, Inc., and X-Safe, who leads the industry. Suppliers for A&V include Halotron Extinguishers, Kadelite, and Exit Signs, Inc. A&V attempts to maintain inventory levels sufficient to service two weeks of sales. This level has shown to avoid stockouts, and the excess inventory is held in a warehouse in a suburb of San Diego.
A&V has a legacy accounting system that employs a combination of manual procedures supported by standalone PCs in the various departments. Recently it has experienced business inefficiencies that have been linked to its antiquated accounting system. You have been retained by A&V management to review its procedures for compliance with the SarbanesOxley Act and to provide recommendations for improvement. The A&V expenditure cycle is presented in the following paragraphs.

Expenditure Cycle

The company purchases safety devices such as fire extinguishers, exit signs, and sensors from many different suppliers. When the quantity-on-hand of a particular product falls to a low level, the warehouse clerk selects a vendor and manually prepares three hard copies of a purchase order. The clerk sends one copy of the purchase order to the vendor, one copy to the general ledger department, and the third to the receiving department to be used to verify the goods when they arrive. When the goods arrive from the vendor, they first go to the receiving department. The receiving clerk matches the packing slip in the shipment to the purchase order that the warehouse clerk had previously sent. After comparing the quantities and products on the packing slip to those specified on the purchase order, the receiving clerk signs the purchase order and sends it to the accounting department. The receiving clerk then manually prepares a hard-copy receiving report, which he sends with the goods to the warehouse. From his department PC, the warehouse clerk uses the receiving report to update the inventory subsidiary ledger to reflect the receipt of the goods.
Subsequently, the accounting department’s AP clerk receives the supplier’s invoice, which she matches and reconciles to the previously received purchase order from the receiving clerk. From her department PC, the AP clerk then updates the digital accounts payable subsidiary ledger to reflect the new liability and records the event in the digital purchases journal.

Cash Disbursements Procedures

The AP clerk in the accounting department reviews the liabilities that are due by searching the AP subsidiary ledger from the department PC. The clerk then prints out a hard-copy cash disbursement voucher for each item due for payment. The clerk then sends cash disbursements voucher to the cash disbursements department for payment. At the end of the day, the clerk prints a hard-copy AP summary from the department PC and sends it to the general ledger department.
From his department PC, the cash disbursement clerk uses the cash disbursement voucher to record the payment in the digital check register and then pints a three-part check. The clerk signs the negotiable portion of the check and sends it to the vendor. One check copy is filed in the department and the clerk sends the second check copy, along with the original cash disbursement voucher, to the accounting department AP clerk. At the end of the day, the clerk prints a hard-copy summary of the check register and sends it to the general ledger department.
From the accounting department PC, the AP clerk uses the check copy and cash disbursement voucher to record the payment in the digital check register and to close out the liability in the digital AP subsidiary ledger. The clerk then files the hard-copy cash disbursement voucher and check copy in the department.
From the department PC, the general ledger clerk posts the summaries received from the accounting and cash disbursement departments to the appropriate general ledger accounts. The clerk files the hard copy summaries in the general ledger department.
