Prior to beginning work on this discussion forum, visit the The Sarbanes-Oxley Act 2002 (Links to an external site.) Search the Internet and locate an annual financial report for a public U.S. company. Read the Notes to the Financial Statements to determine the criteria for cash equivalent and how cash and cash equivalents are handled.

In your initial post, you will discuss your findings. Find information about the internal control policy of the company and summarize this policy in your post. Is it in compliance with SOX? What are some references to SOX mentioned in the annual report? Your answer should demonstrate understanding of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, and be a minimum of 200 to 200 words in length.
