RE: Evaluation of internal control over cash receipts from
customers
By opening the mail, the accountant has direct access to cash. This
creates an internal control weakness because the accountant also posts
credits to customer accounts. She can steal a cash receipt from a
customer and write off the customer account as uncollectible. The theft
is hard to detect because the customer’s account gets zeroed out, and
the company does not pursue collection.
