4. On public safety, the PNP implemented community and safety protection
programs as part of its law enforcement functions such as:

and 47,071 operations on special events were conducted;
D. Scope of Audit
The audit covered the operations and financial transactions of the PNP National
Headquarters and the 17 Police Regional Offices (PROs) nationwide for calendar year
2014.
V
E. Auditor’s Report
1. The balance of various cash accounts in the National Headquarters and Police
Regional Offices (PROs) was incorrect due to the inclusion of checks issued
totaling P2,005,031.61 which remained outstanding for more than six months to
over eight years. Furthermore, the reliability of their balance could not be
ascertained because of delayed preparation and submission of Bank
Reconciliation Statements; and failure of the Accounting Division to update the
subsidiary ledgers (SLs) for the Cash accounts, required under Sections 2 and 3 of
COA Circular Nos. 92-125A dated March 4, 1992 and Section 74 of P.D. 1445.
(Observation No. 1)
2. In PRO 13. the balance of the Inventory accounts as of December 31, 2014 was
unreliable due to unreconciled difference of P7,087,974.81 between the recorded
balance of the Accounting of P28,132,661.75 and Report of Physical Count of
P21,044,686.94. In other PNP Regional Offices, the Supplies Ledger Cards and
Stock Cards of inventory were not maintained by the Regional Accounting Unit
and the Supply Accountable Officer (SAO) and no physical count of inventories
was conducted and the Reports on the Physical Count of Inventories (RPCI) was
not submitted. (Observation No. 6)
VI
regularly to assure correctness and reliability of the Inventory accounts as
presented in the financial statements.
We also recommended that management take immediate action for the disposal
of the unserviceable properties that no longer provide economic benefits to the
agency in accordance with Section 79 of PD 1445, to avoid further deterioration
and generate additional income from sale.
4. Provision of depreciation for IT Software was subsequently treated with the same
for IT equipment without considering the impairment loss of the item contrary to
the provisions of PPSAS 31, re: Intangibles Assets. Moreover, some software
with small value like antivirus is being amortized for a period of 5 years. This
software has a useful life of one year only and expires after a year. (Observation
No. 13)
VII
We recommended that management require the accountant to (a) review the
items in the subsidiary ledger of IT Equipment and Software and consider the
proper amortization of the items by amortizing in accordance with its useful life;
(b) drop from the books the items that are no longer functional by debiting the
depreciation expense of the book value of the software and the total accumulated
depreciation and crediting the acquisition cost of the software; and (c) software
with small value and with a useful life of one year be charged as an outright
expense.
5. Cash advances granted to the disbursing officer for intelligence activities and
service pay and allowances were transferred to various Budget Finance Officers
of the different offices/units of the PNP who are not bonded, contrary to COA
Circular Nos. 97-002 and 2012-001 dated February 10, 1997 and June 14, 2012,
respectively. (Observation No. 2)
We recommended that management (a) strictly adhere to the rules and regulations
on the grant of cash advances prohibiting the transfer of cash advances from one
accountable officer to another and grant cash advances intended to address the
requirements of different offices/units to their respective Budget/Finance Officers
to easily pinpoint accountability; and (b) require all Finance PNCOs and AO in
PRO 9 to be properly bonded in accordance with law.
VIII
We recommended that Management require the Accountable Officer (a) in PRO I,
IVA, IVB and 13, to submit to the COA Chairman, the liquidation documents for
the cash advances granted in December 2014 and assure compliance with
regulations relative to the grant and liquidation of cash advances; (b) in PRO 2
and 12, to adhere strictly with the guidelines on the liquidation of cash advances
to forestall the refund of any unexpended balance at the end of the year. If
possible, a notice to each of the payees to claim their benefits be sent as early as
possible; (c) in PRO 3, to liquidate their cash advances and strictly comply with
COA Circular 97-002 dated February 10, 1997 which requires that all cash
advances should be fully liquidated at the end of the year.
10. The failure to strictly implement PNP Memorandum Circular No. 2011-002 and
monitor the monthly remittance of PCSO-STL to PNP resulted in the unrecorded
and undeposited collections for PRO 4A, PRO 4B and PRO 6 in the total amount
of P82,881,463.03. (Observation No. 9)
11. Collateral/additional allowances and other benefits of PROs for CY 2014 were
paid through cash advances inconsistent with PNP Memorandum Circular No.
2014-004 which prescribes the adoption of the Automated Teller Machine (ATM)
Payroll System in the payment thereof, and exposes huge amounts of cash to risk
of loss or misuse, thereby, indicating weak internal controls on safeguarding of
funds and compliance with rules and policies, contrary to Sections 32 and 35.b of
the Government Accounting and Auditing Manual, Volume III. (Observation No.
10)
12. Deliveries of supplies and materials, repairs of equipment and rental of motor
vehicle totaling P43,732,623.22 cannot be established/accounted upon ocular
inspection or through verification from records due to the delay in the submission
of copies of Purchase Orders, Work Orders and Contracts and late notification on
the date and time of the scheduled deliveries of goods; hence, hindered the timely
inspection of the items delivered, contrary to Section 2 of PD 1445; thereby,
casting doubt on its existence. Likewise, the requesting offices failed to comply
with COA Circular No. 96-010 and COA Memorandum No. 2005-027 dated
August 15, 1996 and February 28, 2005. (Observation No. 11)
We recommended management to (a) strictly comply with COA Circular No. 96-
010 dated August 15, 1996 on the submission of Purchase Orders, Work Orders
and Contracts within five (5) days from issuance and in notifying the Auditor of
deliveries within twenty-four (24) hours from acceptance; (b) require the
accountable officers (SAO and RSPNCO) to: (i) submit complete set supporting
documents on the deliveries requested for inspection. Make sure that items
delivered are still intact before making a request; (ii) maintain stock cards and
property cards to record receipt and issuance of supplies and materials and
equipment; and (iii) issue the RIS and ARE for issuances of supplies and
equipment; (c) specify in the work orders the equipment to be repaired, the serial
numbers or property tag numbers and other references to facilitate proper
X
identification. Likewise, the scope of work/repair to be performed be included in
the repair history for each equipment with pre and post repair inspection by a
designated personnel with technical knowledge on the equipment to be repaired;
and (d) document the use of rented motor vehicles with approved office orders
delineating the activity/operation to be conducted, assigned personnel, location of
operation and assigning the use of rented vehicles and other relative documents,
for purposes of verification.
14. Interests Income earned from deposits in CY 2013 and CY 2014 amounting to
P3,723,482.46 and P2,878,936.61, respectively, totaling P6,602,419.07, net of
taxes, were not remitted to the Bureau of Treasury in violation of Section 44,
Book VI of EO 292, series of 1987 and Section 65 of PD 1445, thus, depriving
the national government of the use of said funds. (Observation No. 14)
15. Weak control on the handling of issued firearms to 72 police personnel resulted in
the loss of 90 service firearms valued at P3,258,730.00. Moreover, out of the 80
police personnel who were granted relief by the agency’s respective Board of
Survey, only 5 have submitted their notification of loss to the Commission on
Audit which is in violation of Section 73 of PD 1445 and Section 102 of the
Government Accounting and Auditing Manual (GAAM), Volume 1. (Observation
No. 15)
16. In PRO COR, the non-compliance with the provision of NAPOLCOM Resolution
No. 93-08 dated April 6, 1993 to provide 100% short firearm to every policeman
may compromise the efficiency in the discharge of their duties and functions.
(Observation No. 16)
We recommended that Management require the: (a) SDO to stamp “PAID” all the
disbursement vouchers and its supporting documents after payment in order to
avoid re-submission and/or re-use of the same documents for other similar
transactions/disbursements; and (b) Accountant to ensure that the DVs are
properly accomplished and filled-up and the supporting documents are complete
before payment and prior to submission to the Auditor for audit.
18. Financial and mandatory reports were not submitted within the prescribed period
contrary to Sections 34 and 37 of the Manual on NGAS; COA Circular Nos.
2009-006 dated September 15, 2009; and Section 122 of PD 1445; thus,
hampering the early detection of lapses and deficiencies in the operations, as well
as in the review and verification on the propriety and validity of transactions
recorded in the books. (Observation No. 20)
19. Procurement of patrol vehicles and shirts thru PS-DBM funded under the
Disbursement Acceleration Program (DAP) in the amount of P79,699,250.00,
only P6,196,320.00 was delivered leaving a balance of P73,502,930.00 as of
December 31, 2014, defeating the purpose of the Program to fast-track public
spending and push economic growth; thereby, depriving the agency of the much
needed police supplies and vehicles that should have been used in attaining their
mission/vision. (Observation No. 22)
