D. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT OBSERVATIONS AND
RECOMMENDATIONS
For the exception cited, we recommended that Management instruct the Inventory
Committee to include all properties in physical count and submit an updated and properly
accomplished RPCPPE with all the needed information. Also, direct the Municipal
Accountant to maintain complete and updated PPE ledger cards to support GL account
balances and the GSO to keep corresponding property cards for each category of PPE for
control purposes. These records should contain adequate details/description of the
properties such as model, serial number, location, cost and other information necessary to
facilitate identification. Moreover, require both the Accounting Division and Property
Section to exert all efforts to reconcile their records on a regular basis so that
discrepancies thereon are immediately corrected.
The Audit Team has communicated the observations and recommendations with
the Management through the issuance of Audit Observation Memorandum (AOM) and
discussed them with the concerned officials and employees during the exit conference
conducted on April 15, 2019 in which the latter’s comments were incorporated in the
report, where appropriate. The following are the significant observations together with
the corresponding recommendations:
We recommended that Management ensure that in all other projects and activities
to be pursued by the LGU, the law and rules on procurement be strictly observed.
2. The Municipality was not able to fully implement 4 projects budgeted at ₱24.407
million representing 80 per cent of the total number of priority development
projects under the 20% Development Fund (DF) for CY 2018. Also, expenditure
amounting to ₱554,270.79 charged against 20% DF was not among the items
included in the Appropriation Ordinance for Fiscal Year 2018, thus, the
transaction is deemed unauthorized.
iv
despite its completion of the project thereby, overstating the liability account’s
balance by the same amount.
We recommended that Management: (a) fully utilize the funds granted by the
national agencies to effectively and timely extend to the constituents the benefits
of the agency’s projects; and (b) ensure that the specific terms and conditions of
the Memorandum of Agreements are strictly adhered to particularly the agreed
duration of projects.
Out of the seven audit recommendations embodied in the previous Annual Audit
Report, one was fully implemented, five were partially implemented and one was not
implemented as of December 31, 2018.
