    1) What would a credit manager do if a sales order received caused a customer to exceed its credit limit?

     The sale should be canceled /rejected. The credit manager must immediately reject the sales order since
    the clients are past due on their payments and are unable to bear the burden.

    for shipment are consistent with the sales order?\

     The goods are shipped, an invoice is created and mailed, the sales and general ledger records are
    updated, and a month-end statement is created and mailed to the customer. The item is sent to the carrier
    together with the packing slip and bill of lading, allowing the cargo to be monitored and a legal contract
    to be supported. The Billing Department, on the other hand, will get duplicate copies of the packing list
    and bill of lading in order to inform the client of the amount owed and where to make payment.
    IV.
    Required:
    Describe at leats four internal control weaknesses at Marikit Mail Order Co.

    1. The warehouse's inventory is being removed.

    Without permission from inventory control, the shipping department removed merchandise.
    Additionally, the receptionist creates sales return paperwork without the credit manager's
    express permission.

    2. There is no sales order, and credit must be confirmed before the items are dispatched.

    Numerous segregation of responsibilities violations have been made by the corporation, such
    as the cashier updating the accounts receivable subsidiary ledger while similarly recording all
    cash receipts.

    3. The bills should be mailed before the items are shipped; only one person should open the mail.

    Because of the company's lax access controls, the shipping department has direct access to the
    custody of merchandise.

    4. Custody and record-keeping obligations are not separated, and sales return forms are not permitted.

    In order for the receptionist to collect cash receipts, manage customer complaints, and
    complete sales returns simultaneously, the corporation does not have oversight over the
    receptionist or the mail room.
