...controls that are executed by an independent, supervisory-level employee who does not have custody, record-keeping, authorization or reconciliation responsibilities for the process. In the checklist below, we have provided examples of several such compensating controls. Ideally, no individual employee should handle more than one of the above-noted functions in a process. When an organization separates these functions among its employees, it has implemented a strong internal control, which may deter and prevent employee fraud. Segregation of duties is one of the key concepts of internal controls. It is also one of the most effective internal controls in combating employee fraud. Segregation of duties contributes to an organization’s system of checks and balances. The concept of segregation of duties is to separate the following responsibilities in each business process: • Custody of assets • Record keeping • Authorization • Reconciliation Glenn Pomerantz Partner BDO Consulting gpomerantz@bdo.com 212-885-8379 Nidhi Rao Director BDO Consulting nrao@bdo.com 212-885-8008 The checklist is intended solely for illustrative purposes and is not intended to constitute professional advice for any particular...

...according to the style of service they offer. The service style determines the layout, menu, inventory, food prices and décor of the restaurant. They could be classified as fast food, fast casual, fine dining and casual dining (Johnson, 2014). This study focuses on the fast casual type of restaurants which are locally established in General Santos City. By definition a fast casual restaurant offers the ease and convenience of fast food, but with a more inviting sit-down atmosphere. The menu consists of better quality ingredients than can be found at most fast food establishments (Mealey, 2013). Inventory signifies all food, beverages, serving supplies and cleaning supplies. Every piece of inventory should be counted at least once every week so that menu items could be prepared for the customers and to stay in control of the goods on hand (Parpal, 2007). Inventory control, also known as inventory management, refers to the systems and strategies businesses use to ensure that they have adequate inventory. According to Parpal (2007), the main purpose of conducting inventory count is to measure the amount of food, supplies and other products used over time. This usage can be converted to cost, which is then compared to total sales for a given period. This way, the management can get a feel for how much profit the business makes from the product sold. Another reason is that taking inventory affects ordering processes. It shows how much an establishment have as well as how fast it...
