You have obtained the following extract of the flow for the revenue and receivables business process for your audit client, King Pharmaceutical Company, a drug manufacturer:

1. An incoming customer purchase order is received in the order department by a clerk who prepares a prenumbered sales order form. The sales order form includes the pertinent information, such as the customers name, address, quantity and items ordered. After the sales order form has been prepared, the customer purchase order is attached to it.

2. The sales order form is then passed to the credit department for credit approval. Rough estimates of the values of the orders are made in the credit department for those accounts on which credit limits are imposed. After investigation, approval of credit is noted on the form.

3. Next, the sales order form is passed to the billing department, where a clerk uses a computer to generate the customers invoice. It automatically multiplies the number of items and the unit price and adds the extended amounts for the total value of the invoice. The billing clerk determines the unit price for the item from a list of billing prices. The invoice has multiple copies which are designated as follows:

a. Customers copy

b. Sales department copy, for information purposes

c. File copy

d. Shipping department copy, which serves as a shipping order.

Bills of lading are also prepared as carbon copies of the invoicing procedure.

4. The shipping department copy of the invoice and the bills of lading are then sent to the shipping department. After the order has been shipped, copies of the bill of lading are returned to the billing department. The shipping department copy of the invoice is filed in the shipping department.

5. In the billing department, one copy of the bill of lading is attached to the customers copy of the invoice and both are mailed to the customer. The other copy of the bill of lading, together with the sales order form, is then attached to the invoice File copy and filed in invoice numerical order.

6. As the computer generates invoices, it also stores the transaction in an electronic file that is used to update the accounting records daily. A summary report is generated, and all journals and ledgers are printed for a hard copy of the records.

7. Periodically, an internal auditor traces a sample of orders all the way through the system to the journals and ledgers, testing both the procedures and dollar amounts. The procedures include comparing control totals with output, recalculating invoices and re- footing journals, and tracing totals to the subledger and general ledger.

8. The CFO reviews the financial statements to ensure sales are appropriately aggregated and the disclosure notes related to sales are complete and accurate.
