CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION
Organisation info
Working in heavy work load with great support of seniors and friendly
environment. Learnt about accounting, tally, Ms-office, rectification, handling.
One should have to be punctual and arrive on time. One can leave on time after
completing the work which has allotted to him. If anyone has to work for some
extra time then he/she can work, there are no restrictions. Working with perfect
coordination with seniors and learning something new was a great opportunity.
It’s a great value addition and good place to learn team spirit and time
management. It has homely environment. There was not much more salary but
was lot to learn in the firm. The surrounding was great and helpful. Well
maintain behaviour, nice and friendly atmosphere. Boss was not rude speaking
was like friendly in nature and treated like a family member. The management
of the firm was very particular. Co-workers are always cooperative. Hardest
part was to maintain discipline and to do accurate work.
WHY IT IS SELECTED
I was intern in ca firm to understand the structure of taxation. I also learn how
the data entry made. I also want to learn how the gist filling are done.
The fact you’re doing an internship is like those ‘L’ learner plates that
trainee drivers have on their cars. Your colleagues are aware that you are not
an expert yet and so adjust their expectations accordingly, this can reduce the
pressure on the intern greatly and allow you to learn at your own pace. While
you’re on the internship it’s a fantastic opportunity to develop skills, things
you could never do before. Until I did my internship in renewable energy I
had only ever given presentations to classmates and was so nervous
beforehand that I dreaded it. However, after the experience of writing out the
company business plan and presenting it to would be investors, I now feel
extremely confident in my ability knowing that if I have a good grasp of the
material, there is nothing to be concerned about as I can present in an
informative manner and comfortably answer questions.
The intern chose JVJ & Associates for my internship programme because he
wanted to have general ideas on audit firms and their activities. The intern
joined JVJ & Associates to get exposed to the real world of accounting and to
have first-hand experience on the same since. The intern is a student of
Management faculty. The intern wanted to know how business firms
do accounting and what role does it play in the growth and development of
business activities. JVJ & Associates is a partnership firm established in 1994
A.D. The firm provides auditing, due diligence, account outsourcing, project
management and consulting services. The firm specializes in consulting services
in areas of: Country Strategic Papers, Restructuring policies and Internal
Control System Development Mergers/Demergers, Financial Controller/ Due
Diligence Review/Special Review of various Infrastructure projects on behalf
of commercial banks; Forensic Audits, etc.
Mission- JVJ & Associates exists to provide complete, reliable and high quality
auditing and consulting services to individuals and institutions, be it
manufacturing, trading, tourism, financial, governmental, non- governmental
medical, hydro power, hotels, and any other sectors.
Vision- The firm's vision is to be the premier auditing, accounting, tax and
business consulting firm by every measure that matters.
Values
Valuing People
We believe that our success depends first and foremost on people. By
respecting people in everything we do, we will develop and maintain high
quality, mutually beneficial relationships with our clients, professional
colleagues, referral sources, vendors, community members and each other.
Keys to Success
The keys to success for JVJ & Associates are Developing visibility to generate
new business leads. Relationships with clients (developing loyal, respectful, and
intensive contact with both clients and potential clients). Marketing/strategy and
networking with other professionals. Responsiveness to clients (fast response
time for special problems). Quality (especially in reporting information).
Excellence in fulfilling the promise. Openness: languages and willpower for
creating interregional and international contacts.
Work culture
It’s a firm which promotes team work. As team work enhance the potentiality of
the employees and gives effective outcome by using individual skills. It
promotes the team work due to following advantages; -
Teamwork in general produces better end results, as well as bringing out better
quality performances from individual members of the team.
Workers are more emotionally positive and are better at sharing knowledge,
learning and responsibilities when they experience the personal security of
being part of an effective team.
Individuals are more likely to take risks when they experience the security of
being part of an effective team, as they receive the support and reassurance of
being part of a group.
A group can sometimes deal with complicated, difficult, deep, and involved
problems more effectively than individuals can.
Last but not least, effective teamwork is fun for the people involved and this
raises motivation and morale.
TYPES OF ORGANISATION
Usually, there are two types of organisation i.e. FORMAL and INFORMAL.
Formal organisation
Informal organisation
WEAKNESSES
OPPORTUNITIES
THREATS
Significant external threats exist in the tax and book-keeping industry. Easy
internet-based programs simplify the process for the user and remove the need
for many people to seek out specialized tax or book-keeping services. In
addition, the larger industry giants represent significant competition, providing
incentives that smaller companies simply do not have the means to offer, such
as advance refunds. Brand recognition is also a threat to the small tax or book-
keeping business. Because customers must trust the company with their most
important financial information, failing to recognize the company name or
associate the brand as a trusted provider that will safeguard the information can
mean the loss of potential business.
Organizational Structure
Partners
Directors
Senior Managers
Managers
Supervisors
Senior Trainee Students
Junior Trainees
Partners are often the founders of the firms. Most of the firms’ names are
associated with the names of partners. They are basically the main parties who
issue and sign any report (specifically audit report) on behalf of the firm.
Partners mostly communicate with the Senior Managers. In other words, the
progress of any report and any inquiry is made from the Senior Managers and
hierarchal structure is strictly followed to avoid any disruption.
Managers are inquired of by Senior Managers and mostly manager manage
audit field works etc. and after field work managers with cooperation of senior
managers makes and finalize any audit report to be issued. Senior Manager is a
qualified Chartered accountant having more than 10 year working experience.
All the offices constitute different number of departments who basically handle
their respective functions. The major departments include:
In Prakash Baka & Associate same staff is handling with tax matters as well as
corporate sector. While in corporate firm provides different kinds of services
relating to corporate sector from incorporation to winding up of a Company.
The hierarchy adopted by Prakash Baka & Associate is in accordance with the
legal structure a CA firm shall have. Although the ICAI rules permit of not
having the supervisors and does not make it mandatory having senior manager
and manager, yet this goes as additional benefit for the firm of having such an
extensive hierarchy.
Salary.
Interest and dividends.
Winnings from the lottery.
Insurance commission.
Rent.
Fees from professional and technical services.
Payments to contractors and subcontractors.
The withholding amounts for TDS can be deducted from an invoice submitted
by a supplier or from the payment that is issued to the recipient or supplier.
Examples of recipients and suppliers include contractors, providers of
professional services, employees, and real estate landlords. Companies submit a
TDS certificate to each supplier on a monthly or yearly basis. The certificate
includes the payments, as well as information about the company and supplier.
Companies must also submit an annual return to the government for each
recipient or supplier for the financial year. TDS certificate can be either Form
16 (R75I10A) or Form 26Q-P2P-IND (R75I122EQ). Form 16 is the TDS
certificate which an individual submits and Form 26Q is the TDS certificate
which a company submits to the tax authorities. TDS must also be deducted
from payments issued to third parties by both corporate and no corporate
entities. The entity must deposit the amount owed for withholding at any of the
designated branches of banks that are authorized to collect taxes on behalf of
the government of India. The entity must also submit the TDS returns, which
contain details about the payments and the challan for the tax deposited to the
Income Tax Department (ITD). For electronic TDS, companies must generate
the Form 26Q for each financial quarter. This is a statutory requirement for the
ITD.

Proper recording
Financial structure:
Since JVJ & Associates is a private partnership company, all the financial
information and reports are kept strictly confidential and handled by the
partners only. So, financial structure of the organization could not be identified
since the organization denied providing any sorts of financial information.
Organization Performance:
From my viewpoint, to the best of my knowledge and ability, I found the
overall performance of the organization above satisfactory level measured on
following criteria.
Financial
: Since, the financial data and information were not accessible; I am unable
to measure the actual financial performance of the organization. However,
looking at the rush of work and the nature of the services all-round the year and
throughout the country, there is no doubt that the organization has sound
financial performance. Moreover, the firm is the auditing and consulting firm
run/managed by the chartered accountants who are experts in the field
of finance. Hence, there is very less chance of the firm incurring losses.
or shamed to learn new things that they were previously unaware of. There is
great opportunity in growth and promotion of employees. As soon as they
complete their final year and become qualified CAs and ACCAs, they get
promoted in their job as well as their remunerations. Employees are not so
highly satisfied with their jobs but they are not dissatisfied as well. I found high
employee turnover ratio in the organization because most of the Article ships
and trainees tend to opt for other alternatives after they become qualified
chartered accountants (CAs).
Customer
: Wherever I was assigned to work, I found the customers there; mostly give
priority tithe quick delivery of the required services and reporting rather than
the quality of work and reports. I must say that the delivery performance of the
organization is better as they do not cross the estimated time period and most
often the necessary work and reporting is completed before the prescheduled
deadline. I feel that the quality of the work is good from the perspective of
number of times the report gets checked and verified before the final report is
handed over to the customer. Or
ever, the quality of work not only depends upon the employees’ work
performance but also depends upon the role played by the customers. Because
of the quality of the work, delivery process and period, and the degree of
customization provided as per the need of the customers, I found high degree of
customer retention. Based on the customer retention rate and the delivery
performance, I came to conclusion that the customers are fairly satisfied with
the services they acquire.
’
work performance but also depends upon the role played by the customers.
Since there are no different departments, there is no duplication of activities
across departments and there arises no questioning on process alignment
Audit
Financial Audits
: In a financial audit, the assertions about which the auditor seeks objective
evidence relate to the reliability and integrity of financial and occasionally,
operating information.
This type of audit usually covers the basic set of financial statements (Balance
Sheet, Income Statement, Statement of Cash flows, Statement of Changes in
Equity and notes to the financial statements)
Statutory Audit:
A legally required review of the accuracy of a company's or
governments’
financial records are what termed as Statutory Audit. The purpose of a statutory
audit is same as the purpose of any other audit - to determine whether an
organization is providing a fair and accurate representation of its
financial position by examining information such as bank balances,
bookkeeping records and financial transactions.
Internal Audit:
Compliance Audit:
Account Outsourcing:
Company Establishment:
The firm also extends its services towards establishment of organizations and
corporation. The firm helps in registration in company registrar office as per the
company act 2063, acquiring of certificate of commencement of business, etc.
Tax Management:
The firm also helps in tax management for organizations. Organizations can
acquire services like calculation of income tax, management of Value Added
Tax (VAT), Tax Deducted at Source, timely filing and payment of tax to Inland
Revenue Department, etc.
The firm also offers advising and counselling services on matters relating to
accounting system, tax procedures, company establishment, and numerous
other financial matters. The firm provides consultancy services in areas of
Country Strategic Papers, Restructuring policies and Internal Control System
Development, Mergers/Demergers, Financial Controller/ Due Diligence

Learning Objectives
Each and every transaction is checked and ratified on the basis of support
document. So, we can easily know the truth of account.
Each and every transaction is checked and ratified on the basis of document.
Vouching helps to find out the unrecorded or missing transactions. If any
voucher is found unrecorded, auditor can suggest to record such transactions.
I choose to work with JVJ & Associates. During this internship I have learnt
many new skills. Before internship I have only theoretical knowledge about
work in organisation but now, I have practical some practical experience of
working in organisation.
Now I have knowledge about the organisation’s working environment and how
organisations work and achieve their goals and objectives. This internship has to

thinking, planning and implementation, and how these things are applied in a
real world organisation environment. Following are the objectives that I have in
my mind before working as an internee.

Overview
One or more receipt records might correspond to an invoice. For example, if the
billing amount on an invoice is 100.00, it might correspond to one receipt
record for 100.00 worth of items, or two receipt records for 50.00 worth of
items. If multiple receipt records correspond to an invoice, you can review a
summary of all corresponding receipt records.
You might receive an invoice adjustment after you create a voucher. The
adjustment might reflect cost changes to a specific item or an error on the initial
invoice. In this situation, you can create a voucher for an invoice adjustment.
Navigation
From Stock Based Procurement (G43A), choose Receipts Matching and Posting
To create a voucher from an invoice, you must locate the receipt records that
correspond to the invoice and match them to the invoice. For example, if a
supplier has sent you an invoice for 100.00, you must locate and match the
receipt records for the 100.00 worth of items that correspond to the invoice.
The total amount of the receipt records you match to an invoice must equal the
amount on the invoice. For example, if two receipt records correspond to an
invoice and each receipt record is for 200.00, the invoice amount must equal
400.00 to perform a match.
If an invoice reflects a partial order, you can change the quantity or amount of a
receipt record to match the invoice. The system leaves the remaining balance of
the receipt record open. For example, if a receipt record reflects 100 items, but
the invoice amount reflects 50 items, you can change the receipt record quantity
to 50. You can create a voucher for the remaining 50 items at a later time.
The system creates a voucher interactively when you match receipt records to
an invoice.
If you do not record receipt information, you must match purchase order detail
lines to invoices to create vouchers (two-way voucher match). For example, if a
supplier sends you an invoice for 100.00, you must locate and match the
purchase order detail lines that contain the corresponding 100.00 worth of
items.
To prevent employees from changing the Supplier, set the Protect the Supplier
field processing option to 1.
2. To locate receipt records or purchase order detail lines for a specific purchase
order, complete the P.O. Number field and press Enter.
3. To locate receipt records or purchase order detail lines for a specific supplier,
complete the Supplier field and press Enter.
You can have the system enter the amount, tax, and taxable amount based on
the receipt records you choose to match to the invoice.
If you are working with receipt records, you cannot increase the quantity to
reflect an invoice. You must first receive the additional quantity from the Enter
Receipts program. If you increase the amount for a receipt record, the system
creates journal entries to account for the variance.

To create vouchers from invoices, you must locate the receipt records that
correspond to an invoice and match them to the invoice. This can be a time
consuming task if a large number of receipt records correspond to an invoice.
You can summarize receipt records to match them to an invoice. For example,
you receive an invoice for all calendars you have ordered from AAA Office
Supply Company in the last month. You can summarize all receipts records for
the calendars into a single line and match the line to the invoice to create a
voucher. You can summarize records by item, company, currency code, and
cost rule.
o Receipt Date
4. To match summary lines to the invoice, complete the following field and
press Enter: o (Option Exit)
If you type 1 in the Option Exit field, the system uses a batch process to create a
single voucher.
If you type 2 in the Option Exit field, the system accesses the Voucher Match
program, from which you must manually match to the invoice each receipt
record that makes up the summary line
Recording Invoice Adjustments
Navigation
From Stock Based Procurement (G43A), choose Receipts Matching and Posting
You might receive an invoice adjustment that reflects a price change to an item
or an error to a previous invoice. For example, you receive an invoice for 100
items at 10.00 each and later you receive another invoice that adjusts the cost of
the items to 9.00 each. You can create a new voucher that reflects an adjustment
to the previous voucher.
You might have an agreement with certain suppliers that your receipt records
are sufficient for creating vouchers. When such an agreement exists, the
supplier does not need to send you an invoice, and you can avoid manually
matching receipt records to invoices to create vouchers.
Navigation
From Stock Based Procurement (G43A), choose Receipts Matching and Posting
You can run the Evaluated Receipt Settlement (P43800) procedure to create
vouchers from receipt records in batch mode. You indicate the receipts for
which the system
You can run Evaluated Receipt Settlement in proof mode to review the receipts
for which the system will create vouch correct them. After you have corrected
any errors, you can run the program in final mode to create vouchers.
After the system creates the vouchers, you work with them as you would with
any standard voucher.
When you run Evaluated Receipt Settlement, the system generates two reports.
If you run the program in proof mode, the first report contains all receipts for
which the system will create vouchers. If you run the program in final mode, the
report contains the voucher number, voucher amount, and so forth, for each
receipt.
The system creates accounts payable offsetting entries when you post the
voucher journal entries to the general ledger. You can set processing option 35
behind the Voucher Match program to automatically submit the post program
(P09800) after you perform a match.
For example, if you create a voucher for 100.00 worth of items that you
formally received, the system creates the following journal entries:
If you create a voucher for 100.00 worth of items that you did not formally
receive, the system creates the following journal entries.
If you create a voucher for 100.00 worth of items that you did not formally
receive, the system creates the following journal entries:
You can review the journal entries that the system creates for a voucher on
Voucher Journal Review. You can review the amount of each entry and the
account to which each amount is debited or credited.
When you create or reverse vouchers, the system displays a voucher number
and batch number on the Voucher Match screen (P4314). You might want to
note these numbers so that you can locate journal entries by batch and document
numbers.
You can distribute a single expense to multiple accounts. For example, you can
purchase 100 reams of paper and distribute the expense of the paper to several
different departments. You can distribute the expense at purchase order entry or
when you create the voucher.
If you distribute an expense at purchase order entry, the system generates the
following journal entries when you create the voucher, based on the accounts to
which you distributed the expense:
Debits the received not vouchered account for each of the distribution
accounts (if you performed a formal receipt)
Debits each of the distribution accounts (if you did not perform a formal
receipt)
For example, you enter a purchase order detail line for 90.00 worth of office
supplies. You distribute the expense equally to three departments (A, B, and C)
at purchase order entry. When the supplier delivers the office supplies, you
enter a formal receipt. The system generates the following entries when you
create the voucher:
4 Equal Expense Distribution Journal Entries
If you did not enter a formal receipt for the office supplies, the system generates
the following entries when you create the voucher:
5 Equal Expense Distribution (No Formal Receipts) Journal Entries
The system credits the Accounts Payable Trade account for 90.00 when you
post the entries described above to the general ledger.
You can distribute or redistribute an expense when you create a voucher. To do
this, you must specify each account that the system is to debit and credit and the
amount of each debit or credit.
For example, you order 90.00 worth of office supplies that you charge to the
office supplies expense account at purchase order entry. At voucher entry, you
want to redistribute the expense equally to three departments (A, B, and C). To
do this, you must specify the debit and credit side of each entry, as follows:
(90.00) Office supplies expense account
30.00 Department A expense account
30.00 Department B expense account
30.00 Department C expense account
[45]
Notice that you must remove the expense from the account on the detail line to
distribute the expense to the three departments.
Based on this example, if you entered a formal receipt for the office supplies,
the system generates the following journal entries when you create the voucher:
6 Specified Accounts Formal Receipts
If you did not enter a formal receipt for the office supplies, the system generates
the following entries when you create the voucher:

Conclusion
Chartered Accountancy is one of the most prestigious profession in all over the
world. This profession requires to maintain standards and procedures in
conducting audit consultancy, taxation etc. works. International standards on
auditing provides basic guidelines that chartered accountants need to adopt.
Apart from auditing procedures provided by International standards on auditing
(ISAs) every Chartered Accountant firm has some discretion in their audit
procedures depending upon the situation of the respective country and nature of
clients.
In this report, I tried to the best of my knowledge to present the audit procedures
followed by JVJ & Associate. In conducting their audit works. Mainly, JVJ &
Associate. follows the audit procedures set by ICAB in most cases except for
area that requires professional judgment. From my working experiences in JVJ
& Associate. it has been found that in some respects JVJ & Associate. does not
strictly follow the standard of audit procedures.
From the formation of JVJ & Associate. contributes to a great extent in ensuring
the transparency in the presentation of financial statements of various entities of
various of Bangladesh. Proper adoption of standard audit procedures will lead
JVJ & Associate.
