I have a basic understanding of the types of transaction cycles and how they relate to the control activities within internal control (SCARE). However, I suck at transaction cycle MCQs. I struggle to correlate what connections would cause a certain event of a lapse in judgment. Any tips or pointers on sucking less?
Example:
Which of the following would most likely be the result of ineffective internal control policies and procedures in the revenue cycle?
A. Final authorization of credit memos by personnel in the sales department could permit an employee defalcation scheme.
B. Fictitious transactions could be recorded, causing an understatement of revenues and an overstatement of receivables.
C. Irregularities in recording transactions in the subsidiary accounts could result in a delay in goods shipped.
D. Omission of shipping documents could go undetected, causing an understatement of inventory.I struggle to follow the different answer choices and what effects they have.
