In response to the audit findings, it is hereby resolved as follows:

1. Regarding Revenue and Receivables Discrepancies

It is hereby resolved that a more stringent sales return verification process be implemented immediately to address the identified discrepancies totaling $[Amount] in sales returns. Furthermore, an enhanced follow-up procedure for receivables, particularly those outstanding for more than [00] days, will be instituted to improve cash flow and reduce bad debt exposure. A target recovery of at least [00]% of the outstanding $[Amount] in receivables is set for the next quarter.

2. On the Misclassification of Expenses

It is hereby resolved that the misclassification of $[Amount] in expenses be corrected forthwith.

3. Regarding Inventory Management Discrepancies

It is hereby resolved that immediate steps be taken to enhance the physical inventory control processes and the inventory recording system. These steps include periodic inventory counts to be conducted quarterly and the adoption of a more sophisticated inventory management software. These actions aim to significantly reduce the $[Amount] inventory discrepancies identified and ensure accurate inventory valuation.

4. On the Understatement of Depreciation Expense for Fixed Assets

It is hereby resolved that the depreciation calculations for the assets acquired mid-year that led to a $[Amount] understatement in depreciation expense be adjusted retroactively. Going forward, the finance team will employ a revised depreciation calculation method to ensure accuracy. This adjustment will ensure that our financial statements accurately reflect the value of our fixed assets and comply with accounting standards.

Implementation and Monitoring

Each resolution will be assigned to a specific team within the finance and accounting department for implementation. Progress will be monitored on a monthly basis by the Internal Audit Department, with a comprehensive review scheduled for the next quarter to assess the effectiveness of these resolutions and to make further recommendations as necessary.
