17 The auditor should also perform procedures to detect fraud related to cash receipts:
Determine whether cash received was recorded.

18 ? Prepare a proof of cash receipts.

21 Lapping is a fraud scheme that occurs because of inadequate segregation of duties related to mail, cash receipts, and accounting.

22 a lapping example On Monday, a check is received from
A/R Able $1000 Baker $1000 Cain $1000 On Monday, a check is received from Able Co. in payment of their a/r. The check is stolen by the bookkeeper! No entry is made and all evidence of the payment receipt is destroyed.

23 a lapping example On Tuesday, a check is received from
A/R Able $1000 -1000 A/R Baker $1000 A/R Cain $1000 On Tuesday, a check is received from Baker Co. in payment of their a/r. The payment, however, is credited to Able’s account.

24 a lapping example On Wednesday, a check is received from
A/R Able $1000 -1000 A/R Baker $1000 A/R Cain $1000 -1000 On Wednesday, a check is received from Cain Co. in payment of their a/r. The pay- ment, however, is credited to Baker’s account.

25 What audit procedures may detect lapping?
- a/r confirmations (disputed balances, disputed timing of payments) client 32 client’s a/r customer

28 Confirmation Sequence
obtain a/r aging select specific a/r for confirma- tion print confirmations and mail them analyze results, investigate disputed amounts statistically and/or judgmentally determine whether the extent of exceptions will affect internal control evaluation and acceptability of a/r balance

29 Receivables Audit Procedures
