I. INTRODUCTION

INTRODUCTION
1.1 Legal Bases
The Commission on Audit (COA) is mandated under Section 4, Article IX-D of
the Philippine Constitution to submit to the President and Congress the Annual
Financial Report (AFR) of the National Government. On the other hand, Section 41 of
Presidential Decree No. 1445, otherwise known as the Auditing Code of the
Philippines, requires that an annual report on the financial condition and results of
operation of all agencies of the government, which shall include recommendations of
measures necessary to improve their effectiveness and efficiency shall be submitted not
later than September 30 of each year.
In conformity with this mandated function, the COA, through the Government
Accountancy Sector (GAS) submits to the President and the Congress the Annual
Financial Report (AFR) of the National Government (NG) for calendar year (CY) 2011.
1.2 Objectives
The AFR aims to provide information on the total approved budget/authorized
appropriations, releases of allotments, utilization/obligations incurred and Notice of
Cash Allocations (NCA) received by national government agencies (NGAs), cash
inflows and outflows and the financial condition and results of operations as shown in
the consolidated financial statements of the NGAs. The budget data serve as useful
tools for the Congress in the enactment of appropriations and other laws, while the other
information presented in the AFR aspires to guide the President, legislators, economic
planners and other government executives in the formulation of economic policies, in
the development of budget plans, and in aid of legislation.
1.3 Contents/Features
The AFR presents the main financial statements, namely: Balance Sheet (BS),
Statement of Income and Expenses (SIE), Statement of Government Equity (SGE) and
Statement of Cash Flows (SCF), in condensed and detailed form with comparative
figures for CYs 2010 and 2011. It also features the appropriations, allotments,
obligations and balances by department/agency and by source, and the common and
significant audit observations and recommendations.
The report comprises of the following:
Volume I-A

Contains the Report Highlights, Condensed Financial


Statements, and Financial Analyses, and write-ups on the
Appropriations, Allotments, Obligations and Balances, NG
Debt, Special Accounts in the General Fund, and
Comprehensive Agrarian Reform Program

Volume I- B Includes the Detailed Financial Statements by Department/


Office, Schedules and Annexes

1.4 Methodologies
1.4.1

Appropriations, Allotments, Obligations and Balances


The budget data shown in this report include the total current years
appropriations, prior years appropriation balances or continuing appropriations
set by law to be available until the end of the year and automatic appropriations
which do not require periodic action by Congress. The total allotments released
by the Department of Budget and Management (DBM) during the year are
monitored and recorded in the Registry of Appropriations and Allotments
(RAPAL) maintained by COA-GAS. These information are summarized
together with the obligations incurred based on the Statement of Allotments,
Obligations and Balances submitted by NGAs.
The appropriations and allotments were reconciled with the records of the
DBM and the NGAs and necessary corrections and adjustments were
communicated and effected accordingly. Similarly, obligations incurred by
agencies were verified to ascertain that such commitments were duly covered by
allotments and overdraft in allotments, if any, was properly coordinated with the
concerned agency.

1.4.2 Financial Statements


The 2011 financial reports of the NG were prepared by agency accountants
in accordance with the rules and regulations under the New Government
Accounting System (NGAS). The accounts in the advance copies of trial
balances submitted by NGAs were uploaded into the AFR System from which
the individual agency BS, SIE as well as the SGE were generated and compared
with the audited FS submitted by the COA audit sector. The system also
generated the overall consolidated FS by department/office.
The elimination of inter-agency and intra-agency accounts was based on the
overall BS. The inter-agency receivables were eliminated with the inter-agency
payables to reflect the amount of cash expected to be realized from the
receivables and the actual payables subsisting between NGAs, LGUs and
GOCCs. On the other hand, the intra-agency receivables were also eliminated
with intra-agency payables to reflect the balances of reciprocal accounts
subsisting between the Central Offices (COs), the Regional Offices (ROs)/Staff
Bureaus, and the Operating Units (OUs). After the elimination, however, the
inter-agency and intra-agency accounts still have balances since these are not
reconciled at the agency level.
The total income of the NG was based on the consolidated SIE generated
from the system presented by Regular Agency (RA) Book and National
Government (NG) Book. The breakdown of the total income presented in this
report was based on the consolidated Report of Income (ROI) submitted by the
NGAs, since under the NG Book maintained by the Bureau of the Treasury
(BTr.), the various tax revenue accounts are categorized as Other National Taxes
while the non-tax revenue accounts are lumped in Other Service Income.
2

The SCF submitted by NGAs were analyzed and converted into the
prescribed format to facilitate inputting and processing of data into the AFR
system. Due to lack of a module to offset collections of income/revenue against
remittances to the National Treasury, manual computation was done. The
offsetting, however, was done on the overall SCF due to lack of information as
to the nature of remittances made. The intra-agency and inter-agency transfers
were also not eliminated in the absence of data as to the transferor/donor and
transferee/recipient. The system generated the overall consolidated SCF by
book, by department/office and by agency.
1.4.3

National Government Debt


The data on NG debt were based on the 2011 advance copy of the FS,
Actual Debt Service Expenditures provided by the BTr, Department of Finance.
Budget information were sourced from the 2012 Budget of Expenditures and
Sources of Financing (BESF) and the 2011 General Appropriations Act (GAA),
R.A. No. 10147, furnished by the Department of Budget and Management
(DBM). The National Government Debt Accounting Division (NGDAD), BTr
submits to COA-GAS the analyses of loans and bonds payable, both foreign and
domestic. Based on the analyses, the data on beginning balances of outstanding
NG debt are reconciled with the ending balances reflected in the 2010 report. The
availments and repayments during the year were also based on the NGDAD
analyses. The ending balance of NG debt is reconciled with the Loans and Bonds
Payable, foreign and domestic, appearing in the BS of the BTr - NG Book.
Appropriations for foreign assisted projects by department/agency were taken
from the 2011 GAA, while releases of allotments were based on the Agency
Budget Matrices (ABMs) and individual Special Allotment Release Orders
(SAROs) of the particular agencies. Comparative data between programmed and
actual budget for NG debt were based on the BESF and the COR.

1.4.4 Special Account in the General Fund (SAGF)


The financial information for SAGF as of December 31, 2011 were obtained
after the consolidation of the trial balances submitted by national government
agencies except the CARP (Fund 158) which is presented in Part VIII of this
report. Transactions pertaining to SAGF, which were integrated in the General
Fund 101 of the departments/agencies since no separate books were maintained,
were not included herein. However, the income collected by various NGAs and
remitted to the National Treasury was included based on the actual income
recorded in the books of the BTr either as Grants and Donations or Other Service
Income. The utilization of the amount is subject to the approval of special budget
released through SAROs and issuance of NCAs.
1.4.5 Comprehensive Agrarian Reform Fund (CARP)
The data on budget/appropriations, allotments and obligations presented in
this portion were gathered from the materials submitted by the Presidential
Agrarian Reform Council (PARC) and from the DAR auditing unit in-charge of
the consolidation of the CARP.
3

The 2011 data on appropriations, allotments and obligations submitted by the


seven (7) implementing agencies (IA) to PARC were compared with that of the
SAOB submitted by the IAs to COA-GAS to reconcile the figures. However,
discrepancies were noted, thus for purposes of this report, the data gathered by
the COA-GAS for fiscal year 2011 are presented.
Consolidation of fiscal year 2011 Balance Sheet and Statement of Income
and Expenses of all implementing agencies pertaining to CARP (Fund 158) and
the accounts of CARP-Land Bank of the Philippines (LBP) was done in order to
come up with the consolidated data on assets, liabilities, equity, income and
expenses.
1.5

Coverage
This years financial data were obtained from the audited and advance copies of
financial statements (FS)/reports of 329 agencies. Of the total number of NGAs, only
five have not submitted their financial reports namely, Eastern Visayas State
University, Iloilo State College of Fisheries, National Climate Change Commission,
Cultural Center of the Philippines and Fiber Industry Development Authority
(National Government Book only). Of the 494 targeted number of FS/Preliminary
Trial Balances (PTBs) to be included in the AFR, 224 or 45.34 percent are based on
the audited FS while the 270 or 54.66 percent are from the advance copies of FS
submitted by the NGAs accounting units. The unsubmitted audited FS of other
departments/offices were received by GAS after the cut-off date.

III. APPROPRIATIONS,
ALLOTMENTS,
OBLIGATIONS AND
BALANCES

APPROPRIATIONS, ALLOTMENTS, OBLIGATIONS AND BALANCES

3.1 Overview
In his Budget Message, President Benigno S. Aquino III called the 2011 budget, the
first financial blueprint of his Administration, a Reform Budget, which promises to make
real the changes needed to revitalize the economy while leaving no sector behind. The
President stated that the 2011 budget was crafted with bias for the poor and vulnerable and
stressed that transparency and accountability are important thrusts of this years budget which
shall be used as strategies to combat corruption and as tools to achieve better public financial
management.
In fulfillment of the Presidents Social Contract with the Filipino People, the Aquino
Administration took steps in reducing poverty and providing sustainable development by
increasing the appropriations of the DSWD by 142.66 percent, an indication of the
Administrations sincerity in alleviating the conditions and protecting the interests of the poor
and marginalized sectors. For the year, the appropriations of the DSWD included the second
phase implementation of the KALAHI-CIDSS Project in various LGUs, conditional cash
transfers (CCT) to 2.3 million households, rice subsidy, and pension for indigent senior
citizens.
During the year, the government undertook a painstaking-yet-necessary review and
reform of cost assumptions, quality standards and procurement processes that caused delay in
the implementation of planned infrastructure projects which resulted to government under
spending, and was blamed for the lackluster economic growth in the first three quarters of
2011.
To address this, President Aquino approved the Disbursement Acceleration Program
(DAP) on October 12, 2011. The P72.11 billion funds for the DAP were taken out of savings
from completed or discontinued projects and its release to agencies and GOCCs was fast
tracked as 2011 drew to a close. As reported in the Official Gazette, the DAP contributed
immensely to the governments increased spending in the last months of the year, allowing
agencies to quickly implement programs and projects aligned with the Presidents Social
Contract with the Filipino People.
Aside from the initial P72.11 billion, additional amount of P13.4 billion was
authorized by the President to further boost government spending and strengthen the national
economy for fiscal year 2012. The additional funds will also provide for deficiencies under
the Special Purpose Funds, including the Calamity Fund and Contingent Fund, and augment
the much reduced internal revenue allocations for LGUs.
The projects funded by the additional P13.40 billion include the P1.60 billion
nationwide Disaster Risk, Exposure, Assessment and Mitigation (DREAM) program of the
Department of Science and Technology (DOST); the P4.28 billion additional budget for State
Universities and Colleges (SUCs) under the Commission on Higher Education (CHED), the
P2.3 billion incentives of personnel affected by the Rationalization Program of the
Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH); and the P450 million Jalaur River
Multipurpose Project of the Department of Agriculture (DA).
18

Presented in Schedule 7, Volume I-B of this report are the details on allotment releases
for DAP and the corresponding obligations incurred during the year, by department/agency.
3.2 Appropriations, Allotments, Obligations and Balances
An appropriation is an authorization under past Acts of Congress, Presidential
Decrees or other legislative enactments, for payments to be made with funds of the
government under specified condition and/or for specified purpose.
In any given year, there are two budgets being executed namely: the GAA for the
current year which contains new appropriations intended to finance the programmed
activities of various agencies and the special projects and programs of the NG; and the
balances of prior years appropriations which are set by law to be available as continuing
appropriations until the end of the following year. In addition to these, automatic
appropriations provided by standing appropriation laws also form part of the total NG
budget for the year.
Table III-1 shows the summary of appropriations, allotments, obligations incurred
and balances for the year which are separately discussed in the succeeding pages of this
report. The details are presented by appropriation source in Schedules 1 and 2, and by
department/agency in Schedules 3 and 4, Volume I-B.

3.2.1.1 General Appropriations Act (R.A. No. 10147) P1 trillion


The GAA of 2011, R.A. No. 10147 was the first financial blueprint of the Aquino
Administration. In his budget message, the President emphasized that the 2011 budget
serves a tool for social reform, transparency and accountability. The GAA was signed on
December 27, 2010 and was published in the Official Gazette in the same year as required
under Section 2 of the New Civil Code of the Philippines. Section 101 of the General
Provisions of R.A. No. 10147 states that it shall take effect on January 1, 2011.

Regular Appropriations P765.41 billion


Originally, the regular appropriations for the year were approved at P755.72
billion. Of this amount, P4.04 billion was transferred to SPF particularly Budgetary
Support to GOCCs. During the year, transfer from Overall Savings of P13.72 billion
was made. Thus, the adjusted regular appropriations for the year aggregated at
P765.41 billion. The amount is lower by P96.19 billion or 14.37 percent than last
years P669.22 billion.
Over the years, the Education Department got the biggest chunk with P182.67
billion for 2011 or 23.87 percent of the total regular appropriations, followed by
DPWH with P114.63 billion or 14.98 percent, and DND with P104.22 or 13.62
percent of the total.

22

The DSWD got the highest increase of 142.66 percent or P21.85 billion from
last years P15.31 billion. The increase can be attributed to the inclusion of the
second phase implementation of the KALAHI-CIDSS Project in various LGUs,
conditional cash transfers (CCT) to 2.3 million households, rice subsidy, and pensions
for indigent senior citizens. The increase in regular appropriations for the Defense
Department of P46.54 billion or 80.68 percent is due to the integration of the AFP
Modernization Fund which was originally budgeted under the Special Purpose Funds.

Special Account in the General Fund P12.57 billion


For the year, the SAGF included in the total new appropriations amounted to
P12.57 billion broken down into PS P2.37 billion, MOOE P9.97 billion and CO
P0.22 billion. In the previous year, the data was presented under the automatic
appropriations.

Special Purpose Funds P229.21 billion


The SPFs are funds appropriated in pursuit of specific plans and activities of
the NG. Unlike other funds in the budget that are allocated for specific government
agencies which are expected to show clear accountability over their use, SPFs are not
under the accountability of any particular government agency/office or unit. Instead,
said funds form part of the national budget that the President allocates for special
programs and projects.
This years allocations for the SPF was approved at P232.50 billion
representing 23.24 percent of the total appropriations in the GAA. The amount was
reduced by P7.32 billion which was transferred to the Overall Savings for the DAP,
and was partially offset by a total of P4.04 billion transferred from the regular
appropriations for an adjusted balance of P229.21 billion.
The significant decrease of P370.19 billion or 61.76 percent in this years
SPFs was due mainly to the inclusion of the Debt Service Interest Payments of
P276.12 billion in last years SPF budget.
Presented in Table III-4 are the comparative appropriations for the SPFs.

Unprogrammed Fund P78.25 billion


Unprogrammed Fund is a standby appropriation for additional agency
expenditures for priority programs and projects on top of the original budget. Subject
to Presidential discretion, this fund shall be released only when the revenue
collections exceed the original revenue targets submitted by the President pursuant to
Section 22, Article VII of the 1987 Philippine Constitution, including savings
generated from programmed appropriations for the year.

percent from last years P118.91 billion. Support to Foreign-Assisted Projects
component went up by 441.73 percent or P8.81 billion which can be attributed to the
Administrations effort to attract foreign investors involvement in domestic projects.
The Support for Pre-School Education, a new component of the
Unprogrammed Fund with an appropriations of P902 million, was included in support
of the preschool education campaign of the Administration. Table III-5 shows the

Regular Appropriations and Overall Savings, lesser by P994.55 million or 4.84
percent. The decrease can be attributed to the policy of the present Administration
on self-sufficiency among government corporations. Among the GOCCs with
notable decrease in budgetary support are the National Food Authority P5.50
billion; Cagayan Economic Zone Authority P820.26 million; Aurora Pacific
Economic and Freeport Zone P663.70 million; National Home Mortgage Finance
Corporation P400.00 million; Philippine Heart Center P398.05 million; and
National Kidney and Transplant Institute P346.00 million. The Philippine
Institute for Development Studies exhibited a remarkable increase of P568.30
million from a mere P17.00 million budget in the previous year. The National
Electrification Administration and National Dairy Authority similarly increased by
P155.81 million and P242.82 million, respectively. Table III-6 presents the
comparative details of appropriations for BSGC.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


4.5 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies/Procedures
4.5.1 Funds and Books Maintained
The New Government Accounting System (NGAS) which took effect on
January 2002, authorized the national government agencies (NGAs) to maintain
two (2) sets of books of accounts, namely:

Regular Agency (RA) Books used to record the receipt and utilization of
Notice of Cash Allocation and other income/receipts which the agencies are
authorized to use and to deposit with the National Treasury and/or with the
Authorized Government Depository Banks (AGDB).

National Government (NG) Books used to record the income which the
agencies are not authorized to use and are required to be remitted to the
National Treasury.

The accounting system of the NG adopts the one fund concept in recording
the financial transactions and in the preparation of the financial statements.
However, separate fund accounting is done when specifically required by law, or
by a donor agency, or when necessitated by circumstances subject to prior
approval of the Commission on Audit.
4.5.2 Use of NGAS Chart of Accounts
The accounts used are in conformity with the NGAS Chart of Accounts
prescribed under COA Circular No. 2004-008 dated September 20, 2004, the
Updated Description of Accounts, and COA Accounting Circular No. 2006-001
dated November 6, 2006.
4.5.3 Control of Appropriations and Allotments and Monitoring of Obligations
Following the NGAS policy, separate registries are maintained by the COA
to record the appropriations and allotments, by agency/source/allotment class; and
by the NGAs to record the allotments and obligations by allotments class and by
program/project/activity.
4.5.4 Notice of Cash Allocation (NCA)
The receipt of NCA by the agency is recorded in the books as debit to
account Cash-National Treasury, Modified Disbursement System (NT, MDS)
and credit to account Subsidy Income from National Government (SING).
The unused/lapsed/expired cash balance under the Cash-NT, MDS is
reverted by debiting the account SING and crediting Cash-NT, MDS.
At the end of the year, an adjustment is prepared for the restoration of cash
equivalent to the unreleased checks and recognition of the appropriate

48

payable/liability accounts. On the first working day of January, a reversal journal


entry is made by the agencies by debiting the appropriate liability account and
crediting the Cash-National Treasury, MDS.

4.5.5 Maintenance of Petty Cash Fund and Payroll Fund


Petty Cash Fund is maintained under the Imprest System. All replenishments
are directly charged to the expense account.
Payroll Fund pertains to cash advances for salaries and wages and other
personnel benefits in accordance with COA Accounting Circular No. 2006-001
dated November 9, 2006.

4.5.6 Foreign-Assisted Projects


Government agencies implementing Foreign-Assisted Projects used the
following methods:

Working Fund/Imprest Account Availment, whereby the lending/donor


institution provides the implementing agency with seed money from the
loan/grant for the payment of eligible expenditures, subject to replenishment;
Direct Payment Scheme, where suppliers/contractors/consultants are paid
directly by the lending institution and borrowings are recorded based on the
withdrawal authorization/advice of payment or any proof of disbursements;
100% Cash Loan Financing Scheme, which requires 100% appropriation and
allotment cover and the loan proceeds will provide the cash requirement;
Grants in Cash and In Kind; and
Commodity Loan and Grant; among others.

4.5.7 Inventory Valuation


The perpetual inventory system is used to account for inventories where
regular purchases are recorded as inventory account and issuances from stock as
expenses. However, purchases out of Petty Cash Fund for immediate use are
charged outright to appropriate expense accounts.
The cost of ending inventory of office supplies and materials and other
inventory items is computed using the Moving Average Method.
Small tangible items with estimated useful life of more than one year are
recorded under the appropriate supplies inventory account upon acquisition and as
expense upon issuance as prescribed under COA Circular No. 2005-002 dated
April 14, 2005. Other tangible assets not included in the list of Annex A of the
said Circular are classified as Property, Plant and Equipment, subject to
depreciation.

49

4.5.8 Property, Plant and Equipment


Property, Plant and Equipment used in government operations are carried at
cost less accumulated depreciation.
For assets under construction, the
Construction Period Theory is adopted where billings for on-going projects are
recorded under the Construction in Progress account.
The Straight-Line Method of depreciation is used in depreciating the
Property, Plant and Equipment with estimated useful lives ranging from 5 to 40
years as set in COA Circular No. 2003-007 dated December 11, 2003. A residual
value computed at ten percent of the cost of the asset is set and depreciation starts
on the following month after the purchase.
4.5.9 Public Infrastructures and Reforestation Projects
Public Infrastructures such as roads, highways, bridges, public parks and
plazas, canals, irrigations, as well as those for environmental purposes like
reforestation projects, etc. are assets of the government for use by the general
public and not owned by the implementing agencies. During construction, these
are recorded as Construction in Progress, and upon completion, these are
reclassified to Public Infrastructures and Reforestation Projects. At the end of the
year, the completed Public Infrastructures and Reforestation Projects are
transferred to the Registry of Public Infrastructures and Registry of Reforestation
Projects maintained by the agency, respectively. The corresponding amounts are
shown as deductions in the Statement of Government Equity.
4.5.10 Recognition of Liabilities
Liabilities are recognized at the time goods
accepted/rendered and suppliers/creditors bills are received.

and

services

are

Commitments or obligations incurred by agencies which are not yet due and
demandable (services not rendered and/or goods not yet delivered) are recorded in
the registries, hence, not recognized as liability.
4.5.11 Revenue and Expense Recognition
The Modified accrual basis of accounting is used. Income is recorded upon
delivery of goods and services except for tax revenues, duties, fees, fines and
penalties, including user charges, which are recognized upon collection. Expenses
are recognized when incurred and reported in the financial statements in the
period to which they relate.
Collections of income due for remittance to the National Treasury are
recorded in the NG books of the NGAs as liability, Due to National Treasury
with subsidiary ledger of the specific income account. Upon receipt of the
remittance, these are recorded as income in the NG books of the Bureau of the
Treasury. The collections of income authorized to be used by the agencies are
recorded in the RA books and are likewise remitted to the National Treasury.
Upon receipt of the remittances by the National Treasury, these are recorded in the
BTr-NG books as liability, Due to Other NGAs.

50

4.5.12 Accounting for Discounts, Premiums and Interests on Borrowings


Premiums on NG Bond Sinking Fund and managed funds Investment in
Bonds are recorded as deferred charges while discounts are treated as other
deferred credits. These are being amortized over the life of the securities as
adjustment to interest income or Due to Other GOCCs in the case of managed
funds.
Interest expenses are recorded upon payment of domestic and foreign
liabilities. Bond discounts, premiums, and accrued interests on issuance of regular
domestic bonds are directly charged or adjusted to interest expense on transaction
dates. The recording of interests for domestic bond issuances is on cash basis as it
is impractical to accrue considering the difficulty in monitoring and manual
processing of voluminous transactions. However, bond discounts, premiums and
accrued interests on the issuance of domestic Zero-Coupon Treasury Bonds, Bond
exchanges and global or foreign bonds are accrued and taken up as Deferred
Charges, Other Deferred Credits and Interest Payable, respectively. Bond
discounts and premiums taken up as Deferred Charges and Other Deferred
Credits, respectively, are amortized over the life of the bonds.

4.5.13 Foreign Currency Translation


Transactions in foreign currencies are recorded in Philippine Peso based on
Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP) exchange rate prevailing at the date of the
transactions. At the end of the year, foreign currency denominated monetary
assets and liabilities at balance sheet date are restated based on BSP Weighted
Average Rate published on the 1st working day of the following month in the BSP
Reference Rate Bulletin. Any difference in the revaluation of assets and liabilities
are recognized as a gain or loss on foreign exchange.

4.5.14 Prior Years Adjustments Account


Fundamental errors on income and expenses of previous years were
corrected using the Prior Years Adjustments account. Errors affecting current
years operation were adjusted to the appropriate accounts.

The chart shows that total liabilities continued to grow, except in 2007 where there
was a slight decline brought about by the decrease in Long-term Liabilities. The decrease in
Long-term Liabilities and the increase in Current Liabilities in 2009 were due to the
reclassification of the current portion of the Loans Payable-Domestic from Long-term
Liabilities to Current Liabilities. For FY 2011, total liabilities increased due to the great
increment in Long-term Liabilities though there was a slight decrease in Current Liabilities.
The Deferred Credits, though forming part of the total liabilities, was not included in the
graphical presentation because of its insignificant amount.
5.1.2.1 Current Liabilities P710.19 billion
This years Current Liabilities posted a decrease of P102.83 billion or 12.65
percent from last years balance of P813.02 billion. This was due to the decline in
Loans Payable - Domestic, Current by P255.84 billion or 46.25 percent and Payable
Accounts by P8.00 billion or 6.54 percent. There were, however, increases in InterAgency Payables of P15.44 billion or 30.99 percent, Intra-Agency Payables of
P140.51 billion or 1,949.27 percent, and Other Liability Accounts of P5.06 billion or
6.30 percent. Table V.1-15 shows the components of Current Liabilities with

5.2 Statement of Income and Expenses


The commendable hard work of the major revenue collecting agencies of the
National Government and the clear policy directions set by the incumbent President of the
Republic turned to an impressive growth in government income and revenues of 12.49
percent compared to last years growth of 7.67 percent. Congruently, the effective but
prudent management of government resources displayed a slightly lower growth rate in
current operating expenses of 11.34 percent.
This years robust performance in revenue/income generation by the National
Government resulted to a total income/revenue of P1.399 trillion while total expenses
amounted to P1.384 trillion. The total Current Operating Expenses incurred for the year
of P709.72 billion brought about income from operations of P689.29 billion. On the
other hand, income after subsidies of P298.03 billion ensued after deducting the total
financial support to local government units, government owned and/or controlled
corporations and non-government/peoples organizations of P391.27 billion. The
deceleration in financial expenses from last years P304.52 billion to current years
P282.77 billion, contributed to the governments reduced net loss of P13.62 billion after
considering net subsidy to NGAs of P2.79 billion and negative net gains of P31.67
billion. The comparison of the 2011 revenue/income and expenses with 2010 data is

The total revenue/income of P1.399 trillion for the year increased by 12.49
percent compared to last years P1.244 trillion. The progress in the total revenue for the

percent, respectively. The composition of the total revenue/income is tax revenue
collections of P1.222 trillion or 87.34 percent and non-tax revenue of P177.07 billion or

The Bureau of Internal Revenue (BIR) and


the Bureau of Customs (BOC), the main tax
revenue
agencies,
contributed
to
the
improvement of total tax revenue collections by
12.01 percent. The tax revenue performance of
all tax collecting agencies of P1.222 trillion was
short by P51.30 billion or 4.03 percent of the
programmed total tax revenue of P1.273 trillion.
The projected level for non-tax revenue of
P138.06 billion in 2011 compared with the
actual non-tax revenue collections of P177.07
billion presents a surplus of P39.01 billion or
28.25 percent. Chart V.2-1 presents the actual
and projected revenue/income. (Source of data on
projected revenue/income: 2012 Budget of Expenditures
and Sources of Financing)

Of the total tax revenue, P923.82 billion or 75.60 percent was shared by the BIR
and P264.83 billion or 21.66 percent by the BOC including non-cash revenue from the
Tax Expenditure Fund (TEF) of P9.41 billion and the rest by other tax collecting
agencies, namely: the DOTC-LTO, Motor Vehicle Users Charge (MVUC); DILG-BFP,
Fire Code Tax; DOJ-BI, Immigration Tax; DENR-OSEC, Forest Charges; and OEOCHED & NCCA, Other Taxes. This year, tax revenue represents 87.34 percent of the
aggregate consisting of: Taxes on Goods and Services P528.70 billion or 43.27 percent;
Income Taxes P426.28 billion or 34.89 percent; Final Taxes P130.95 billion or 10.72
percent; Import Duties P48.80 billion or 3.99 percent; Property Taxes P8.95 billion or
0.73 percent; Other Taxes P65.27 billion or 5.34 percent; and Fines and Penalties
P12.98 billion or 1.06 percent.
Based on the financial reports submitted by the main tax revenue collecting
agencies, current years tax collections of the BIR exceeded last years collection of
P822.70 billion by P101.12 billion or 10.95 percent, while the BOC reported an increase
of P7.97 billion or 3.10 percent over last years collection of P256.86 billion.

Taxes on Net Income and Profits P557.23 billion

The total tax revenue collections pertaining to taxes on net income and profits
contributed the biggest share at P557.23 billion or 45.60 percent. The increase of P80.69
billion was mainly due to the increase of income tax on corporations and final tax of
P54.68 billion and P21.80 billion, respectively. Despite the total increase for the year
under this tax category, it was not sufficient for the tax collecting agencies to meet the set
target at P569.52 billion or a shortfall of P12.29 billion. (Source of set target: BESF for
FY 2012) Table V.2-2 shows the comparative Income Taxes for calendar years 2011 and

5.2.3.1.1 Subsidy from National Government Agencies P1.185 trillion


The main component of Subsidy from NG is the Subsidy Income from
National Government, which accounted for P1.164 trillion or 98.24 percent. This
account is credited for receipt of NCA, NCAA, Working Fund and constructive
receipt of CDC by Foreign Service Posts of the DFA. Likewise, it is also credited for
Tax Remittance Advices (TRAs) issued to BIR and for tax subsidies by the NG to the
GOCCs. On the other hand, it is debited for remittances to the National Treasury of
collections from refunds of current years excess of cash advances and working fund,
and refunds of current years overpayments of expenses and disallowances; reversion
of unused/lapsed NCAs; and closing of the account at year-end to Income and
Expense Summary account.

109

Compared to the P1.093 trillion in calendar year 2010, this years level
increased by P70.85 billion or 6.48 percent. As the administrator of funds for NGs
subsidies to LGUs, the DBM reported the highest amount of P319.69 billion,
accounting for 27.47 percent of the total. The DepEd, DND and DPWH followed
with P216.19 billion or 18.58 percent, P117.99 billion or 10.14 percent and P106.88
billion or 9.18 percent, respectively.
5.2.3.1.2

Subsidy to National Government Agencies P1.182 trillion

The main component of this category is the account Subsidy to NGAs as


reported in the DOF-BTr GOP Books totaling P1.16 trillion or accounting for 99.96
percent. This account is debited for replenishments to AGSBs for negotiated MDS
checks and other payments on accounts of NGAs; constructive issuance of NCAA for
advanced payments made by foreign creditors and donors; constructive issuance of
CDC to Foreign Service Posts based on their submitted Report of Income; Working
Fund deposited to the foreign currency accounts of implementing NGAs for FAPs;
TRAs issued to BIR; and for tax subsidies by NG to GOCCs. It is credited at year-end
for the closing of the account to the Income and Expense Summary account.

Net Gain/(Loss) (P31.67 billion)

From a Net Gain of P49.78 billion in the previous year, a significant Net Loss of
P31.67 billion was reported for the year ended 2011. This was caused mainly by the Net
Loss of P28.47 billion in foreign exchange during the year as compared to the FOREX
Gain of P54.21 billion in 2010. Other contributor is the Loss on Guaranty of P3.16
billion. The account Loss on Guaranty is used for the payment of foreign exchange risk
cover claims for NG guaranteed obligations of GFIs (LBP, DBP and SBGFC). Table V.230 shows the Comparative Details of Gains/(Losses) for calendar years 2011 and 2010.

VI. NATIONAL
GOVERNMENT DEBT

NATIONAL GOVERNMENT DEBT


6.1 Introduction
The National Government (NG) budget has been formulated to turn our vision for
social reform into a tangible reality. This requires the implementation of various
infrastructures, socio-economic and capital development projects to be financed by the
national revenues. To finance its budget deficit, or the gap between revenues and
spending, the NG resorted to borrowings. For CY 2011, the Bureau of the Treasury
(BTr) issued Benchmark Bonds, the largest domestic bond swap transaction of the NG.
The Bureau also raised funds for the government through the issuance of Retail
Treasury Bonds.
This section of the AFR gives us a view on the total indebtedness of the NG
including those relent to the Government-Owned and/or Controlled Corporations
(GOCCs). The debt is contracted either from local/internal sources or from
foreign/external sources for the implementation of capital development projects.

6.2 Legal Bases


The following constitutional authority and pertinent laws governed the incurrence
of public debt by the government:
a. 1987 Philippine Constitution, Section 20, Article 7 which provides:
The President may contract or guarantee foreign loans on behalf of the
Philippines with the prior concurrence of the Monetary Board, and
subject to such limitations as may be provided by law. The Monetary
board shall, within thirty days from the end of every quarter of every
calendar year, submit to the Congress a complete report of its decision on
applications for loans to be contracted or guaranteed by the Government
or government-owned and/or controlled corporations which would have
the effect of increasing the foreign debt, and containing other matters as
may be provided by law.

b. R.A. No. 4860 dated August 8, 1966 entitled:


An Act Authorizing the President to Obtain such Foreign Loans and
Credits or to incur such Foreign Indebtedness, as may be Necessary to

or Bonds Issued by Corporations Owned or Controlled by the Government
of the Philippines for Economic Development Purposes Including those
Incurred for Purposes of Re-lending to the Private Sector, Appropriating
the Necessary Funds Therefore, and for Other Purposes, as amended.

121

c. P.D. No. 139 issued on June 27, 1984 amended R.A. No. 4860, increasing
foreign debt limit to an amount not exceeding US$10 billion or its equivalent
in other foreign currencies at the exchange rate prevailing at the time the
loans, credits or indebtedness are incurred at terms of payment of not less than
ten (10) years except those contracted in the interest of national security and
rehabilitation resulting from natural calamities.

d. R.A. No. 8182 approved by Congress on June 11, 1996 entitled:


An Act Excluding the Official Development Assistance (ODA) from the
Foreign Debt Limit in order to facilitate the Absorption and Optimize the
Utilization of ODA Resources, Amending for the Purpose Paragraph 1,
Section 2 of R.A. No. 4860, as amended by R.A. No. 8555.

e. Presidential Proclamation No. 50 dated December 8, 1986 entitled:

The aggregate domestic debt increased by P156.02 billion or 5.77 percent


compared to last years P2.704 trillion. As shown in the table, the balance of
Treasury Bills and Notes of P297.38 billion comprising Loans Payable Domestic
decreased by P232.34 billion or 43.86 percent compared to last years P529.72
billion, which could be attributed to the decline in Treasury Bills issuance during the
year in favor of flotation of bonds.
On the other hand, the outstanding Bonds Payable of P2.563 trillion increased
by P388.36 billion or 17.86 percent. This is attributed to the increase in Benchmark
Bonds P118.76 billion or 13.62 percent, Fixed Rate Treasury Bonds P178.89
billion or 20.62 percent, and Retail Treasury Bonds P143.69 billion or 49.19
percent. The increase was partly offset by the decrease in Zero Coupon Treasury
Bonds P46.55 billion or 85.13 percent, Special Purpose Treasury Bonds
Comprehensive Agrarian Reform Program (CARP) P6.34 billion or 39.25 percent
and Multi-Currency Retail Treasury Bonds P0.09 billion or 0.41 percent.
The foreign debt of P2.080 trillion is higher by P83.25 billion or 4.17 percent.
This is brought about by the net increase in amount of loans contracted and flotation
of bonds worth P40.10 billion or 4.86 percent and P43.15 billion or 3.68 percent,
respectively.
Bonds Payable increased by P43.15 billion or 3.68 percent resulting from the
increase in issuance of US bonds of P67.91 billion or 6.40 percent and decrease in
the issuance of Japanese Yen bonds of P23.87 billion or 29.49 percent and Euro
bonds of P0.89 billion or 3.04 percent.

and in 2007 a negative amount of P99.39 billion or 2.56 percent was noted. This was
brought about by the decrease in foreign debt of P145.48 billion or 8.52 percent which
was partially offset by an increase in domestic debt of P46.09 billion or 2.12 percent. In
2008, NG debt grew by P356.52 billion or 9.43 percent and since then, the increases

Explanations

The amount of SARO releases is the


contribution to the sinking fund for the
year. The actual payment/redemption of
the government securities, which is
bigger than the released SAROs, came
from the sinking fund.
The payment made for the relent loans
were not included in the request for
SARO releases since these were
considered receivable of the national
government and payments are expected
for the amount advanced.

Non-cash transactions for the capitalized


interest and amortization of interest
expense for zero coupon bonds,
premium/discount for the global bonds
and bond exchange transactions.

VII. SPECIAL ACCOUNTS IN


THE GENERAL FUND

SPECIAL ACCOUNT IN THE GENERAL FUND

7.1 Introduction
The General Appropriations Act (GAA) includes general and specific provisions
on Special Account in the General Fund (SAGF) intended for various specific purposes
which are sourced from grants and donations, collections of specific fees, charges,
premiums, among others. Exempted from these are donations for specific purposes with
a term not exceeding one (1) year and which shall be treated as trust receipts pursuant to
Section 12 of R.A. 10147, the 2011 GAA.
7.1.1 Legal Basis/Purpose
Presidential Decree No. 1234 dated November 8, 1977 provides that the
establishment of Special and Fiduciary Funds has been authorized from time to
time in order to facilitate the funding of priority activities of Government
including those undertaken by GOCCs. This decree contains the following
provisions quoted as follows:
Section 1. All income and collections for Special or Fiduciary Funds
authorized by law shall be remitted to the Treasury and treated as SAGF xxx
corporations.
Section 2. The amounts collected and accruing to Special or Fiduciary Funds
shall be considered as being automatically appropriated for the purposes
authorized by law creating the said Funds, except as may be otherwise
provided in the General Appropriations decree.
Section 3. The amounts collected under Special or Fiduciary Funds shall be
released to the implementing agencies subject to the approval of the President
and to Special Budget under Section 40 of P.D. No. 1177: PROVIDED, That
funds needed for regular operations or other duly authorized purposes may be
automatically released under such conditions as may be approved by the
President.
Section 4. The funds once released shall be administered by the government
agency or corporations concerned and shall be utilized only for the purposes
authorized in the law creating the said Special or Fiduciary Funds.
7.1.2 Existing Accounting Procedures
The New Government Accounting System (NGAS) adopts the one fund
concept and provides that separate accounting shall be done only when
specifically required by law or by a donor agency or when otherwise necessitated
by circumstances subject to prior approval of the Commission.
PD No. 1234 authorized the creation of the SAGF, thus, departments and
agencies maintain separate books of accounts for these funds. However, upon
implementation of the NGAS, some departments/agencies integrated the SAGF

139

transactions with the General Fund 101. The list of departments/agencies with
SAGF is presented in Annex A of Volume I-B of this Report.
Income of government agencies which was constituted as SAGF was
remitted to the National Treasury and disbursed by means of separate MDS check
series and subject to the issuance of SAROs and NCAs by DBM, except those
authorized to maintain bank accounts with government depository banks and/or
exempted from the provisions of Executive Order No. 338.
7.2 Financial Data
The financial data contained in this report were derived from the consolidation
of the balances of the accounts reflected in 72 SAGF/Special Fund trial balances as of
December 31, 2011, which were submitted by 19 departments/agencies, while the
budgetary data were based on the consolidated statement of appropriations, allotments
and obligations prepared by this Sector. The data also includes income accruing to
SAGF which were collected by various NGAs and remitted to the National Treasury.
However, balances of accounts pertaining to CARP Fund 158 were excluded as these
are presented in a separate chapter of this report. Likewise, those accounts pertaining to
the receipt and utilization of the SAGF, for which no books of accounts were separately
maintained, were excluded but were instead integrated in the respective agencys
consolidated trial balances.
7.2.1 Appropriations, Allotments and Obligations
For the calendar year 2011, the total appropriations for SAGF, net of
CARP, totalled P37.13 billion, of which P37.12 billion was released, leaving a
balance of P0.01 billion. The total obligations incurred amounted to P13.36 billion
as shown in Table VII-1 below.

of income of various government agencies accruing to the SAGF, while the SAGF
assets of DND, OEO, DPWH, and DOE were mostly from the AFP
Modernization Trust Fund, CHED-HEDF, Road Board and Special Fund for
energy resource development and exploration programs and projects, respectively.

The departments with the biggest share in SAGF equity are the DOF-P33.37
billion, DND-P18.94 billion, OEO-P3.72 billion, DPWH-P2.49 billion and DAP1.43 billion. However, the DOE posted a negative equity which was mainly due
to the prior years adjustment relative to the loss on sale of the subrogated banked
gas under Service Contract No. 38 Malampaya Natural Gas Project amounting
to P13.82 billion; and direct payments relative to World Bank and ADB Foreign
Assisted Projects awaiting NCAA from the DBM.

VIII. COMPREHENSIVE
AGRARIAN REFORM
PROGRAM

COMPREHENSIVE AGRARIAN REFORM PROGRAM


8.1 Introduction
The Comprehensive Agrarian Reform Program (CARP) was created pursuant to
Article XIII of the 1987 Philippine Constitution. The Comprehensive Agrarian Reform
Law (CARL) or Republic Act (R.A.) No. 6657 was passed on June 15, 1988 to protect
the rights of farmers, farmworkers, and landowners, as well as cooperatives, and other
independent farmers. As one of the major social reform programs of the government, it
is now on its 23rd year of implementation, having it started upon signing of the CARL.
Though the implementation of the law was expected to last for ten years, extensions
were made due to the widespread and vast coverage of the program and voluminous
activities that has to be undertaken. The first extension was for a period of ten years
from June 1998 to December 2008 through the passage of R.A. No. 8532 in February
1998. The program was again extended for another five years from July 2009 to June
30, 2014 by virtue of R.A. No. 9700, the CARP Extension Law.
The Presidential Agrarian Reform Council (PARC) was created under Section
18 of Executive Order No. 229 and Section 41 of R.A. No. 6657 to guarantee the timely
and effective delivery of services to the beneficiaries and to manage and direct the
CARP at the national level. The Council is chaired by the President and ably assisted by
the Secretaries/Heads of implementing agencies. On the other hand, the organization,
harmonization of inter-agency linkages and evaluation of CARP projects are handled by
the PARC Secretariat pursuant to Section 43 of R.A. No. 6657. At the grassroots level,
the delivery of agrarian reform activities to the people is being coordinated by the
Provincial Reform Coordinating Committee.
8.2 Major Components of CARP and its Implementing Agencies
The CARP consists of three major components namely: 1) Land Tenure
Improvement (LTI) addresses the inequality of resources by providing access to
agricultural lands and security of tenure to the Agrarian Reform Beneficiaries (ARBs)
through the land acquisition and distribution activity; 2) Agrarian Justice Delivery
(AJD) aims to provide agrarian legal assistance and the adjudication of cases to
ensure appropriate and timely resolution of agrarian reform issues; and 3) Program
Beneficiaries Development (PBD) comprises the provision for trainings, credit access
and construction of infrastructure projects, specifically farm-to-market-roads and
communal irrigation projects. The PBD ensures that ARBs possesses the capability to
make their newly-awarded lands productive.
The implementation of the CARP is the primary responsibility of the
Department of Agrarian Reform (DAR). Other departments/agencies which act as
implementing agencies of the CARP, with their roles and responsibilities, are as
follows: a) Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR) in-charge of
land surveys and distribution of free patents and stewardship contracts to beneficiaries
of public and alienable and disposable lands suitable to agriculture and agro-forestry
areas; b) Department of Agriculture (DA) responsible for agricultural extension
services; c) Land Bank of the Philippines (LBP) land evaluation, collection of land
amortization from farmer-beneficiaries and provision of credit facilities and other
144

technical assistance to both farmer-beneficiaries and landowners; d) Land Registration


Authority (LRA) registration of land titles; e) National Irrigation Administration
(NIA) mobilization and development of vital farm-related infrastructures, such as
irrigation systems, small impounding dam, access trails, rural roads, ports and other
basic facilities; f) Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH) construction
of farm-related infrastructure facilities, including roads; g) Department of Trade and
Industry (DTI) rural industrialization; and h) Department of Labor and Employment
(DOLE) in-charge of farm workers organizations.
8.3 Funding Sources for CARP
Due to the passage of R.A. No. 9700, the NG has to appropriate funds yearly to
cover the cost of land acquisition and distribution, support services, agrarian justice
delivery and other funding requirements during the extension period. For fiscal year
2011, a total of P11.98 billion was appropriated in the General Appropriations Act,
R.A. No. 10147, broken down as follows: Personal Services P2.36 billion,
Maintenance and Other Operating Expenses P9.47 billion and Capital Outlays P150
million. Table VIII-1 shows the distribution of appropriations for CARP by IA.

IX. COMMON AND SIGNIFICANT


AUDIT OBSERVATIONS AND
RECOMMENDATIONS

COMMON AND SIGNIFICANT AUDIT OBSERVATIONS


AND RECOMMENDATIONS
9.1

Overview
Pursuant to Section 2, Article IX-D of the Philippine Constitution, the
Commission on Audit regularly conducts audit of accounts of all NGAs. The audit is
conducted in accordance with the generally accepted state auditing standards and the
results are communicated and discussed in the Annual Audit Reports (AARs) and in
the Management Letters (MLs) submitted to the audited agency, the Office of the
President, the Congress and other stakeholders.

9.2

Audit Opinions
The AAR sets forth the audit opinion regarding the entitys financial
statements. The auditors opinion, depending on the result of the audit, reflects only
one of the following opinions:
9.2.1. Unqualified Opinion. It states that the financial statements present fairly,
in all material respects, the financial position, results of operations and
cash flows of the audited agency in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles (GAAP). This is equivalent to a Clean Opinion.
9.2.2. Qualified Opinion. It states that the financial statements present fairly
the entitys financial position, results of operations and cash flows in
conformity with the GAAP except for the matter of qualifications.
Normally, qualified opinions are issued when there are: (1)limitations on the
scope of the auditors examination on one or more areas of the financial
statements, and although they could not be verified, the rest of the financial
statements were audited and complied with GAAP or (2) single
deviation/departure from GAAP exists.
9.2.3. Adverse Opinion. When issuing this opinion, the Auditor concludes that
the financial statements do not present fairly the audited agencys
financial position, results of operations and cash flows in conformity
with the generally accepted state accounting principles. This type of
opinion is issued when the financial statements contain very material
departures from GAAP.
9.2.4

Disclaimer of Opinion. A disclaimer of opinion is issued when the


auditor is unable to form an opinion (no opinion) on an entitys financial
statements. A disclaimer is issued in case when: (1) material scope
limitation exists, or (2) significant uncertainty exists.

9.3 Results of Audit


As reflected on the transmitted AARS for CY 2011 of 222 NGAs
the audit opinions are broken down as follows: 44 unqualified/clean or 20 percent, 59
qualified or 72 per cent, 17 adverse or 8 per cent, and 2 disclaimers.

158

The audit opinions excluded audited agencies with AARs not yet transmitted as
of 31 August 2012 and/or only management letters were issued. Presented in the
graph below is the Summary of Audit Opinions for CY 2011.

Adverse audit opinions were issued to 17 NGAs such as Fertilizer and Pesticide
Authority, National Agricultural and Fishery Council, National Meat Inspection
Services, Philippine Center for Post Harvest and Modernization (formerly
BUPRE), Central Luzon State University, Philippine Merchant Marine Academy,
Cotabato Foundation College of Science and Technology, MSU - Tawi-Tawi
College
of
Technology
and
Oceanography, Tawi-Tawi Regional
Technological College, National Labor Relations Commission, Department of
National Defense OSEC, Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical
Services Administration, Philippine Council for Agriculture, Aquatic and Natural
Resources Research and Development, Philippine Council for Industry, Energy
and Emerging Technology Research and Development, Philippine Coast Guard,
Toll Regulatory Board and Manila Metropolitan Development Authority.
The common reasons for the adverse opinions
audit observations:

are

the following

1. Material overstatement/understatement of cash balances and unreconciled


discrepancies in book and bank balances due to failure of the agencies to
prepare bank reconciliation statements (BRS) which render the amount
reflected in the balance sheet unreliable;
2. Reported balances of Receivable accounts were doubtful due to
unliquidated, cash advances, unreconciled General Ledger and Subsidiary
Ledger balances, erroneous recording of transactions, absence of supporting
documents and schedules, among others;

3. Unreliable Inventory balances due to incomplete/non-recording of


procurements and issuances, non-preparation of Report of Supplies and
Materials Issued (RSMI), unreconciled Subsidiary Ledgers and stock
cards, and no physical inventory;
4. Material overstatement/understatement of Property, Plant and Equipment due
to deviations from accounting policies and procedures such as non-transfer of
completed projects to registry, non-recognition of depreciation, failure to
conduct annual physical count and errors/omissions in recording transactions;
5. Material overstatement/understatement of payable accounts caused by
unrecorded direct payments made to the contractors, existence of liability
accounts which have no existing or valid claimants, undelivered purchases
and invalid payments/settlements made; and
6. Dormant/non-moving accounts being carried in the books for several years
although their correctness could not be ascertained due to lack of
documents/records.
Two NGAs, namely, Siquijor State College and Eastern Visayas State
University, were issued with a disclaimer of opinion due to material scope
limitation on certain audit areas which prevented the audit teams to
determine the correctness and validity of the financial data. Details of the
Summary of Audit Opinions is shown in Annex B.

9.4 Consolidated Common Audit Observations and Recommendations from the


Annual Audit Reports for National Government Agencies (NGAs) for
Calendar Year 2011
9.4.1 Cash
The audit of the cash accounts in the books of National Government
Agencies (NGAs) disclosed non - compliance with existing laws, rules
and regulations as well as deviations from required accounting
procedures as follows:
9.4.1.1 Unreconciled differences between the book and bank balances
figures were reported from 72 audited agencies amounting to
P 2.15 billion affecting the reliability of the cash account balance.
Contributory to this finding, is the non-submission or delayed
preparation of the bank reconciliation statements (BRS) of said
agencies.
9.4.1.2 Cash collected by collecting/accountable officers totalling P 89.62
million in 28 NGAs was not remitted/deposited intact within the
prescribed time hence, exposing the assets to risk of misuse and loss.

161

9.4.1.3 Unused and/or dormant cash balances of 59 NGAs amounting to


Php 949.29 million were not remitted to the Bureau of Treasury (BTr)
resulting in huge balances of idle and unutilized funds in
Authorized Government Depository Banks (AGDBs) which should
have been used by the National Government.
9.4.1.4 Cash advances issued to Cash-Disbursing Officers for payroll fund
or petty cash fund of 92 audited agencies totaling P1.22 billion
remained unliquidated, for 30 days up to over 3 years, due to
failure to observe strictly Sections 4.1.2 and 5.8 of COA Circular
No. 97-02 and Section 89, P.D. No. 1445, opening possible risks of
misuse or malversation.
9.4.1.5 Cash shortages were incurred in nine audited agencies amounting
to P9.64 million due to lapses/weaknesses in internal control on
collection.
9.4.1.6 Under assessment/collection of revenues and custom duties in
23 NGAs totaling P389.13 million resulted in collection inefficiency
and lesser funds to be used for the countrys primordial programs
necessary for economic stability and sustainability.
9.4.1.7 Non-existent cash/investments were reported in three NGAs totalling
P35.94 million since these assets were not substantiated.
9.4.1.8 Bank confirmations disclosed unrecorded bank accounts in nine
audited agencies amounting to P363.19 million.
9.4.1.9 Erroneous recording of cash transactions in 17 NGAs resulted in the
understatement/overstatement of the Cash account balances.
Recommendations
9.4.1.10 Prepare the monthly reconciliation statements of all bank accounts
every end of the month in accordance with Section 74 of P.D. No.
1445, take up reconciling items and adjust the books to correct the
errors, if any, to reflect the correct balance of the cash account in the
financial statements.
9.4.1.11 Verify and analyze cash transactions and come up with a
reconciled general ledger and subsidiary ledger balances to ascertain
the correctness of the balance of Cash in Bank Local Currency,
Current Account as appearing in the books.
9.4.1.12 Closely monitor and supervise the prompt remittance of
collections in consonance with Section 69, P.D. No. 1445
to safeguard government funds from misappropriation, loss or
misuse. Ensure collections are deposited intact with authorized
government depository bank as prescribed in the Manual on the New
Government Accounting System (MNGAS).

162

9.4.1.13 Remit to the National Treasury all existing balances of trust receipts
and all collections from whatever source not allowed to be used by the
agency, in compliance to Executive Order No. 338 dated May 17,
1996, COA-DBM-DOF Joint Circular No. 9-81 dated October 19,
1981 and COA-DBM-DOF Joint Circular No. 1-97 dated January 2,
1997. In the case of Revenue District Offices of the Bureau of
Internal Revenue, they should monitor compliance of their Collecting
Officers on remitting their collections intact and regularly as
required under Section 21, Volume II of the MNGAS for National
Government Agencies (NGAs).
9.4.1.14 Return to the source agency the unused funds for the completed
projects, pursuant to COA Circular No. 94-013 dated December 13,
1994 as agreed in the Memorandum of Agreement (MOA).
9.4.2 Receivables
9 4.2.1 Cash advances to Officers and Employees of 208 audited agencies for travel,
special time bound undertakings and other activities totaling P1.44 billion
were not
liquidated within the specified
period and remained
unliquidated
due to
the non-implementation of
the prescribed
controls on the granting and liquidation of cash advances.
9.4.2.2 Funds transferred by 131 NGAs to other NGAs, Local Government Units
(LGUs), Government - Owned and Controlled Corporations (GOCCs)
and
Non-Governmental Organizations (NGOs)/ Peoples Organizations
(POs) for the implementation of projects with an aggregate amount of
P19.30 billion, remained unliquidated for several years due to the
following deficiencies:
a. Failure of the source agencies to monitor transferred funds and to enforce
submission of liquidation reports after completion of the project;
b. Failure of the implementing/recipient agencies to regularly submit
liquidation reports and refund unused balances to the source agencies after
completion of the projects; and
c. Lack of` periodic reconciliation of accounting records between the source
agencies and implementing agencies.
9.4.2.1 Dormant receivables were reported in 70 NGAs amounting to P2.33 billion
primarily due to insufficient or lack of supporting documents leading to a
remote possibility of its collection.
9.4.2.2 Unrecorded receivables of 11 NGAs amounting to P118.92 million resulted to
an understatement of the agencies receivable accounts balances.
9.4.2.3 Two audited agencies failed to recoup their advances to contractors totaling
P1.46 million which is disadvantageous to the government.

163

Recommendations
9.4.2.3 To ensure collection of receivables and liquidation of cash advances, the
following measures are recommended:
a. Prepare and maintain a complete and up-to-date subsidiary records
and aging schedule that are reconciled with General Ledger balances.
b. Adhere strictly to pertinent regulations on the granting, utilization
and liquidation of cash advances which include, among others:

Full liquidation of outstanding cash advances of accountable


officers before new cash advances are granted as provided in
Section 89 of P.D. No. 1445; and

Full settlement of all cash advances at yearend so that appropriate


expense accounts will be recognized in the books, and instruct
the concerned accountable officers and employees to deposit or
return immediately to the cashier/collecting officer any unused
portion of their cash advances.

c. Strict implementation of the provision of Section 5.8 of COA


Circular No. 97-002 which requires the settlement/liquidation of cash
advances within the prescribed period.
9.4.2.4 All possible legal measures/remedies should be enforced in collecting
receivables, which include, among others: a) sending out demand letters
to debtors/officers and employees, b) withholding of salaries or any
claim due them after sufficient notice have been served and c) other legal
means.
9.4.2.5 Verify the status of long outstanding accounts and assess accounts
receivables which are no longer collectible. Consider the possible writeoff of these accounts after exerting diligent efforts to collect, instituting
appropriate action and exhausting all the remedies available.
9.4.2.6 To prevent the accumulation of long outstanding unliquidated fund
transfers, the following are recommended:
a. Transfer the fund directly to the implementing agency of a
project/program instead of having it coursed thru an intermediary
agency by indicating this provision in the LA/Memorandum of
Agreement (MOA); require the timeliness of the project
implementation in the LA/MOA;

164

b. Strictly implement the provisions of COA Circular Nos. 94-013, 96003 and 2007-001 and the provisions of the MOA by requiring the
implementing agency to immediately submit the required liquidation
reports and refund any unutilized balances including interest, if any;
and
c. Refrain
from
granting
additional
fund
releases
to
NGAs/LGUs/GOCCs/ NGOs/POs with unliquidated balances to
prevent accumulation of amounts.
9.4.3 Inventories
9.4.3.1

Delayed delivery of items procured by five audited agencies from the


Department of Budget and Management (DBM)-Procurement Service
(PS) defeated the good intention to facilitate the procurement process
and resulted to the accumulation of undelivered items to P46.09
million.

9.4.3.2

Unreconciled difference totaling P3.65 billion between the Accounting


and Property records/ inventory reports of 101 agencies brought about
mainly by:
a. Non-submission of Report of Supplies and Materials Issued
(RSMI) and other inventory reports as bases in recording the
expenses to the Accounting Unit;
b. Non-submission of required inventory reports to facilitate the
recording of birth/production and mortality of animal livestock;
c. Inventories which were already issued and/or consumed but were
still reflected in the financial statements;
d. Failure of accounting and supply and property offices to conduct
regular reconciliation of their respective records as required in
Section 43, Volume I of the Manual on NGAS (MNGAS); and
e. Erroneous entries in the recording of inventory transactions.

9.4.3.3

Unreconciled difference between the General Ledger (GL) and


Subsidiary Ledgers (SLs) were reported for 32 NGAs amounting to
P2.97 billion hence, accuracy of the Inventory account balances
cannot be determined.

9.4.3.4

Overstatement of P104.97 million of 31 agencies mainly due to the


non-submission of the Report of Supplies and Material Issued (RSMI)
by the supply officer to the Accounting Unit.

9.4.3.5

Inventory accounts balances of 62 agencies amounting to P1.80


billion were doubtful due to failure of these agencies to conduct
physical inventory/count of supplies and materials.

165

9.4.3.6

Nineteen audited agencies did not procure their supplies amounting to


P76.92 million from the Department of Budget and Management
(DBM) - Procurement Service (PS) contrary to the provisions of RA
No. 9184, thus, depriving the government of additional revenues as
well as savings.

9.4.3.7

Inventory account balances of 14 NGAs were understated by P15.67


million due to outright recording of purchases for supplies and
materials to expense accounts.

Recommendations
9.4.3.8

Coordinate with the DBM-PS regarding the settlement of undelivered


supplies.

9.4.3.9

Require the Accountant and Property/Supply Officer to reconcile the


difference between the Accounting and Property records/ inventory
report as required in Section 43, Volume I of the MNGAS for NGAs.

9.4.3.10 Require the Supply Officer to submit regularly the Report of Supplies
and Materials Issued (RSMI) and other required inventory reports to
the Accounting Unit to support the recording of consumption/
issuances of supplies and materials or mortality in case of livestock.
Likewise, prepare the necessary adjustment to record expenses,
unrecorded deliveries and various accounting errors.
9.4.3.11 Oblige the Supply Officer and other concerned personnel to adhere
strictly to the established rules and regulations prescribed in Section
65, Volume II of the MNGAS relative to the conduct of physical count
of inventory items and maintain updated inventory records in
accordance with Section 41, Volume II of the MNGAS.
9.4.3.12 Require the Accountant to maintain the Supplies Ledger Card (SLC)
in accordance with Sections 12, Volume II of the MNGAS, undertake
regular reconciliation of the SLC with the GL and prepare the
necessary adjustments.
9.4.3.13 Adhere to the provisions of Administrative Order No. 17 to use
the Procurement Service (PS) in the procurement activities of the
NGAs to achieve transparency, efficiency and economy in the
procurement process.
Comply with Section 53(e) of the Implementing Rules and
Regulations of Republic Act No. 9184 which provides that agencys
procurement of commonly used goods shall be through the DBM Procurement Service.
9.4.3.14 Record all purchases of supplies and materials following the perpetual
inventory record and maintain supplies ledger cards for each item in
accordance to Section 43 of MNGAS, Volume I.

166

9.4.4 Property, Plant and Equipment


9.4.4.1

Unrecorded Property, Plant and Equipment (PPE) totaling P4.97


billion was reported by auditors for 71 NGAs due to lack of
appropriate supporting documents and/or basis of the cost, in violation
of Section 63 of Presidential Decree (PD) No. 1445 requiring that
government property shall be taken up in the books of the agency
concerned at acquisition cost or at appraised value, thereby
understating the affected PPE accounts.

9.4.4.2

Unserviceable/Disposed properties amounting to P466.86 million


remained in the books of 132 audited agencies in violation of Section
79 of PD 1445 and Section 143 of the MNGAS, Volume III requiring
the disposal of unserviceable properties.

9.4.4.3

Idle/unutilized properties and equipment were reported from 26 NGAs


totalling P646.46 million which defeat the purpose for which these
properties were acquired and exposed the government to the possibility
of incurring losses due to deterioration/destruction or misuse of the
properties.

9.4.4.4

Records of Accounting and Property Units of 179 audited agencies are


reported not reconciled at yearend due to failure to maintain Property,
Plant and Equipment (PPE) ledger and property cards, failure to
conduct physical count, failure to transfer completed projects from
Construction-in-Progress to PPE and the failure of the Accounting
Section to maintain Property, Plant and Equipment Ledger Cards in
violation of Section 490 of the GAAM Volume I, among others. These
deviations mainly contributed to the unreconciled PPE account
balances between the accounting and property records.

9.4.4.5

At least 13 NGAs failed to recognize the depreciation of the PPEs by


recording the monthly depreciation expense at the end of each month
contrary to Sections 67-68, Volume I, MNGAS thereby, affecting
accuracy of the PPE and expense accounts balances.

9.4.4.6

Fifty-six audited agencies failed to insure their equipment, buildings


and other structures amounting to P3.54 billion with the Government
Service Insurance System contrary to R.A. No. 656 and Administrative
Order No. 141 dated August 12, 1994 and Section 5 of R.A. No. 656,
otherwise known as the Property Insurance Law, thereby, exposing the
agencies assets to unnecessary losses in case of fire, calamities and
other fortuitous events.

9.4.4.7

Validity, existence and correctness of the PPE balances totalling


P48.75 billion could not be ascertained due to failure of 206 NGAs to
conduct the actual physical inventory of the fixed assets.

167

Recommendations
9.4.4.8

Require the Property Officer to submit to the Accounting Unit the


necessary supporting documents for the recording of the PPE in the
books of accounts.

9.4.4.9

Require the Accountant to reclassify the unserviceable properties to


Other Assets account, based on the list submitted by the Property
Officer, prior to the disposal of said properties, in accordance with
Section 143, MNGAS, Volume III and management to immediately
dispose all unserviceable properties in accordance with Section 79 of
PD1445. Instruct the Property Unit to prepare the necessary documents
for the disposal of properties through public bidding or other modes of
disposal to prevent their further deterioration; and/or for the
preparation of the accounting entries to drop the disposed properties
from the books of accounts by the Accounting Unit.

9.4.4.10 Conduct a complete physical inventory of all assets at least once a year
pursuant to Section 490, Vol. I of the GAAM and prepare the Report
of the Physical Count of PPE (RPCPPE). Any discrepancies between
physical count and inventories per books must be analyzed,
investigated and a corresponding course of action be taken up
immediately.
9.4.4.11 Require the Accountant to prepare and maintain Property, Plant and
Equipment Ledger Card (PPELC) and reconcile it with the property
records/inventory reports on a regular basis. He/She shall ensure that
the PPELC is always reconciled with the GL to comply with Sec. 43,
paragraphs 3 and 4 of MNGAS, Volume 1 and Section 490 (a and b) of
GAAM, Volume 1.
9.4.4.12 The Accountant should ensure that Depreciation Expenses for all PPE
accounts are recorded at the end of each month. Further, a review of
the PPELC should be done to correct errors posted in the estimated
useful life of the asset to coincide with the prescribed estimated useful
life under COA Circular No. 2003-007. Record the recommended
audit adjustments to correct accumulated depreciation as of December
31, 2010.
9.4.4.13 Require the Management to insure all its insurable physical assets with
the General Insurance Fund of the Government Service Insurance
System (GSIS) in accordance with Section 5 of R. A. No. 656 and
Administrative Order No. 141 dated August 12, 1994 to protect its
interests in case of fortuitous events.
9.4.4.14 Require the Management to undertake various remedial actions to
ensure optimum utilization of the idle/unutilized PPE and ensure
proper maintenance of these assets to avoid wastage of government
resources.

168

9.4.5 Liabilities
9.4.5.1

The recorded liabilities totaling P9.94 billion of 22 audited agencies


were without valid claims and/or not supported by records or
documents to establish their validity and existence.

9.4.5.2

Dormant liabilities of seven agencies totaled P16.62 million.

9.4.5.3

Forty-seven NGAs were reported to have an unbooked or erroneously


recorded payables totaling P2.13 billion which contributed to the
understatement/overstatement of the Liabilities account balances.

9.4.5.4

Seven audited agencies showed unremitted balances to the Bureau of


Internal Revenue (BIR) for taxes withheld and other trust liabilities for
remittance to Government Service Insurance System (GSIS), Home
Development Mutual Fund (HDMF) and Philippine Health Insurance
Corporation (Phil Health).

Recommendations
To establish the validity and accuracy of current years balances and to present a
more reliable figure of payables in the succeeding years financial statements,
the following procedures are recommended:
9.4.5.5

Review all outstanding payables and revert those which are


undocumented/not supported with valid claims and those aged two
years or more.

9.4.5.6

Strictly enforce the submission of supporting documents prior to the


recording of transactions to minimize payables with no claimants.

9.4.5.7

Prepare journal entries to correct the unrecorded payables and adjust


errors in recording the fund transferred to reflect the correct balances.

9.4.5.8

Maintain and update SLs for each payable account to support their
existence and validate accuracy of records. Amounts that have no
breakdown, not supported with complete documentation and not
reconciled with SLs cast further doubt on the reliability of the account
balances.

9.4.5.9

Adhere to the detailed procedures in the COA Cir. 97-001 dated Feb.
5, 1997 for dormant accounts.

9.4.5.10 Comply with laws, rules and regulations governing prompt and regular
remittance of salary deductions for taxes and contributions to BIR,
GSIS, PAG-IBIG and other authorized agencies.

169

9.4.6 Revenues
9.4.6.1

Twelve audited agencies disclosed failure to accrue income and 13


NGAs showed unbooked/erroneously recording of income totaling
P60.61 million and P296.95 million, respectively resulting to the
understatement/overstatement of the Income account balances.

9.4.6.2

Uncollected income of ten NGAs amounting to P124.11 million was


reported such as the (a) current and prior years rental fees from
Fishpond Lease Agreement (FLA) required in the Fisheries
Administrative Order (FAO) No. 197, (b) mandated one percent share
on the gross sales of betting tickets in horse races,
(c)
dividend/interest earnings of investments in banks, (d) fees due from
electric cooperatives including penalties, (d) penalties collected for late
payment, and (e) collections made thru interbranch bank deposits
representing deposits made by applicants for payment of fees still
treated as reconciling items and no accounting entries were made to
record collections.

9.4.6.3

Collections of 14 NGAs, estimated to reach P74.18 million, were not


remitted or deposited intact daily to the National Treasury, authorized
depository banks or to the Head Cashier in violation of Section 69 of
PD 1445 and Section 21, Vol. I, NGAS Manual, thus exposing funds
of the government to risks of loss or misuse.

Recommendations
9.4.6.4

Instruct the Accountants to: (1) effect the recording of unrecorded


collections, (2) prepare reclassification entries on accounts erroneously
credited instead of the income account, and (3) adopt/ use the accrual
method of accounting for income already earned.

9.4.6.5

Management should formulate strategies to intensify the collection of


rent and other income prioritizing the schemes to be considered in
order to encourage payments from debtors with long overdue accounts.
The ERC should impose collection of fees due from Self-Generating
Facilities for renewal of their expired Certificate of Compliance
including the penalties thereon.

9.4.6.6

Management should closely monitor and supervise the prompt


remittance of collections in consonance with Section 69 of P.D. 1445
to safeguard government funds from misappropriation, loss or misuse.
Collecting Officers should be adequately bonded.

9.4.7 Expenses
9.4.7.1

Unauthorized/Illegal/Irregular expenses of about P267.40 million were


incurred for Collective Negotiation Agreement (CNA), incentives,
additional bonuses, Representation Allowance and Transportation
Allowance (RATA) and other allowances.

170

a. CNA estimated at P141.905 million were granted to agency officials and


employees including contractual employees in 30 NGAs.
The
Department of Agrarian Reform (DAR Region XI) registered the highest
CNA paid out amounting to P9.37 million. Such granting of CNA was
not in accordance with the: a) Special provisions in the Appropriations of
the LRA for 2010; b) DBM Budget Circular No. 2006-1; c) AO No.
135; d) PSLMC Resolution No. 04; e) LRA-CNA; and f) Government
Accounting and Auditing Manual. This constitutes irregular transaction
as defined under COA Circular No. 85-55A and also tantamount to
misuse of government funds as provided under Section 80, Chapter 7,
Book VI of E.O. 292.
b. Also, some disbursements for CNA were not supported with documents
contrary to Administrative Order No. 135 dated December 27, 2005 and
DBM Circular No. 2006-001 dated February 1, 2006, giving undue
disadvantage on the part of the government.
c. Other unauthorized/illegal/irregular expenditures incurred by 40
agencies in estimated amount of P39.96 million include: a) traveling
expenses collected were excessive and had no adequate supporting
documents,
b)
Implementation

project
for
the
Construction/Rehabilitation of MPB for Package 1-D, a) Construction of
MPB, Bago Aplaya and c) Rehab of MPB Ma-a, Davao City amounted
to P1.94 million was found irregular due to beneficiaries of the said
projects were cooperative and private corporation in violation Section
4(2) of PD 1445.
9.4.7.2 Expenses amounting to approximately P43.96 million were incurred without
approved budget while excessive expenditures for 19 NGAs amounting to P
680.55 million. Included therein are the following: a) Funds received from
Philippine Gaming Corporation (PAGCOR) were used for advertising and
media promotion activities by Department of Public Works and Highways
(DPWH) amounting to P30 million; b) meals and snacks were served during
meetings and in-house seminars that caused additional unnecessary expenses
amounting P5.87 million by Region III, among others.
9.4.7.3

Government fund amounting to P12.83 million was


activities/programs different from the funds intended purpose.

used

for

a. The school used its Maintenance and Other Operating Expenses


(MOOE) fund for 2011 to purchase supplementary reading and reference
materials (SRMs) contrary to Department of Education (DepEd)Department of Budget and Management (DBM) Joint Circular No. 20041. Likewise, the requirements in its purchase set forth under Department
of Education Order (DO) Nos. 48, S. 2011 and 112, S. 2009 were not
strictly complied totaling P7.86 million for purposes other than for which
they were appropriated contrary to Section 37 of Presidential Decree No.
1177 resulting in the misuse of government funds as defined under
Section 87 of Presidential Decree No. 1445.

171

b. The Special Trust Fund (STF) was used to the Program on Awards and
Incentives for Service Excellence (PRAISE) Incentive contrary to
Commission on Audit (COA) Circular No. 2000-002, Section 4(d) of RA
No. 8292 and RA No. 6758 as well as Civil Service Commission (CSC)
Resolution No. 010112, resulting in audit disallowance by Northwest
Samar State University amounting to P4.96 million.
9.4.7.4

Expenses amounting to approximately P485.60 million were incurred even


without complete documentation.
a. The types of expenditures incurred were the following: a) undocumented
purchases of gasoline, oil and lubricants; b) absence of information as to
the time of arrival/departure in the itinerary of travel as required under
Executive Order No. 298 dated March 23, 2004; c) payments to
consultants which were not supported with proofs of actual service
rendered; d) grants of Collective Negotiation Agreement (CNA) were
not supported with documentations as required under Department of
Budget and Management (DBM) Budget Circular No. 2006-001 dated
February 1, 2006; and d) documents not signed by authorized officials.

Recommendations
To preclude incurrence of unauthorized/illegal/excessive expenditures and the
misuse of government funds including erroneous recording thereof, we recommend the
following:
9.4.7.2 Require the agency heads to explain in writing and submit legal basis that
would justify the granting of Collective Negotiation Agreement (CNA),
incentives, representation allowance and transportation allowance (RATA),
additional bonuses and other allowances, otherwise the amount should be
refunded. Henceforth, management should strictly adhere to the provisions of
Administrative Order No. 135 dated December 27, 2005, DBM Budget
Circular No. 2006-001dated February 1, 2006, Presidential Decree No. 1597,
Section 4 of Presidential Decree No. 1445 and other issuances relevant to said
transactions.
9.4.7.3 Direct the Budget Officers to exercise due diligence and proper control over
the disposition of government funds and remind them of the personal liability
of the persons responsible for the incurrence of overdrafts as provided under
Section 41, Book VI of the Revised Administrative Code of 1987, Section 47
of Presidential Decree No. 1177, Section 20 of Republic Act No. 992, and
other related issuances.
9.4.7.4 Ensure that overspending of allocated funds is avoided through realistic
planning/programming; otherwise realignment should be properly made, if
warranted. Make representations with the Department of Budget and
Management (DBM) for the issuance of the Special Allotment Release Order
(SARO), for authorized overdrafts, to adjust the same.

172

9.4.7.5 Secure the operational efficiency of agencys assets in order to attain the
desired goals/outputs of each program or project.
9.4.7.6 Stop the payment of professional fees/honoraria/incentives to officers and
employees involved in regular activities which are in line with their officially
mandated functions. Determination of individual liability shall be done upon
receipt of Notice of Disallowance, without prejudice to the provisions of
Section 7 of Department of Budget and Management (DBM) Circular No.
2007-01 on the responsibility and personal liability of agency heads. Require
the refund of the amounts illegally received.
9.4.7.7 Ensure that funds are used in accordance with the purpose for which these are
intended. To avert misuse of funds, install policies and controls on the proper
use of funds; prepare a program of expenditures or a Work and Financial Plan
and require submission of audited Statement of Utilization or report on the
completion of the project or trip with accompanying details of transaction.
9.4.7.8 Analyze the transactions resulting to understatements and overstatements of
expenditures and prepare the correcting entries. PPE and inventories should
be recorded using the appropriate asset accounts. Depreciation should be
computed using the Straight Line Method.
9.4.7.9 Direct the Accountant to adhere strictly to the provisions of Section 4 (6) of
Presidential Decree No. 1445, the Omnibus Rules Implementing Book V of
E.O. No. 292 and other Civil Service Laws, Executive Order No. 298 dated
March 23, 2004, Department of Budget and Management Circular No. 2006001 dated February 1, 2006, Department of Budget and Management Circular
No. 2010-3, and other directives, requiring completeness of supporting
documents to claims before payments.
9.4.8 Compliance
Submission of reports/documents
9.4.8.1 Yearend/monthly reports, disbursements vouchers (DVs) and supporting

reglementary period as required under Section 7.2.1(a) of Commission on
Audit (COA) Circular No. 2009-006 dated September 15, 2009, causing delay
in the analysis and review of the accounts and delay in informing
management of the deficiencies noted therein;

Recommendations
9.4.8.4

Require the submission of reports by the concerned personnel within


the prescribed period to facilitate the recording of transactions in the
agency books of accounts so as to provide timely and accurate
information for management decision-making and for eventual postaudit of the agencys financial transactions by the Commission on
Audit as required under Sections 100 and 122 of Presidential Decree
No. 1445 and Section 7.2.1(a) of COA Circular No. 2009-006 dated

accountable reports for recording in the books of accounts;

9.4.8.5

Require the concerned personnel to submit the contracts/purchase


orders and the supporting documents to COA within the prescribed
period in accordance with COA Circular No. 87-278 and COA
Memorandum No. 2005-027, restated with amendments under COA
Circular No. 2009-001 dated February 12, 2009; and

9.4.8.6

Require the Accounting Unit to evaluate the transactions as to


completeness of supporting documents and such are properly
accomplished particularly the signatures of authorized officials and
employees on each and every document attached to the claim.

Procurement
9.4.8.7

Procurement of various goods and services totaling P4.75 billion


reported by 31 audited agencies which did not disclose the amount was
made without complying to the applicable provisions of RA 9184,
otherwise known as the "Government Procurement Reform Act".
These violations include the following:
a. Failure of the concerned personnel to diligently and
conscientiously perform their duties and responsibilities
particularly in gathering the baseline prices as Approved Budget
for the Contract (ABC) of the bid items, for guidance and
comparison;
b. Procurement were done without public bidding; and
c. Procurement of supplies and materials and property, plant and
equipment were made without Annual Procurement Program
(APP) resulting in uneconomical and inefficient procurement.

174

Recommendations
9.4.8.8

Require the Bids and Award Committee (BAC), BAC Secretariat and
Technical Working Group to establish criteria/standards for the
establishment of the baseline prices as ABC of items offered for public
bidding; and

9.4.8.9

Comply with the Annual Procurement Plan (APP) and observe


Competitive Bidding and/or Alternative Modes of Procurement in
accordance with the provisions of Republic Act No. 9184 and its
implementing rules and regulations (IRR).

audit of national government agencies submitted by auditors of the National Government
Sector and Regional Offices of this Commission.
RECOMMENDATIONS

9.5.1 Games and Amusement Board
(GAB)/Philippine Racing Commission
(PhilRaCom)
Establish a stricter collection policy so that
all revenues are collected in full when due
and conduct a legal study with the
assistance of the Office of the Solicitor
General on the imposition of a penalty for
every day of delay in the remittance or
possible refusal to grant a racing permit.

PhilRaCom failed to enforce timely


collection of the mandated one per
cent share on the gross sales of betting
tickets in horse races conducted by the
Philippine Racing Club, Inc. (PRCI)
and Manila Jockey Club, Inc. (MJCI)
hence,
the aggregate amount of
P29,115,017.22 remained uncollected as
of December 31,2011.

(b) A total of 1,489 container vans were


not confirmed as received by the Port
of Batangas and did not reach its final
destination at the Port of Batangas
with invoice value of S7,776,390.33 or
P339,124,957.42. This resulted due to the
failure of POM officials and employees
to implement the proper operational
procedures
for transhipment
and
security
measures instituted by the
Bureau of Customs such as the
mandatory x-ray scanning, underguarding
of the shipments until receipted by the
Port of Destination in case of manual
processing and payment of duties and
taxes at the Port of Discharge in case
of e2m processing and disapproval of
the Transhipment Permit in case where
the registered address of the consignee
is nearer the Port of Discharge. This
resulted in the loss of revenue in the
form of duties and taxes.

Hold all personnel involved in the


processing of transshipment of the
missing container vans responsible for
the loss of revenues; file criminal and
administrative charges against them.

9.5.2.3 Manila International Container Port

manually processed transhipments, 162
container vans were also not confirmed
as received by the Port of Batangas.

of concerned MICP officials and
employees to implement the proper
procedures and security measures on
transhipment instituted by the Bureau
of

Out of the total P12.3 billion cash
allocation received by the Philippine Air
Force from the Department of Budget
and Management (DBM) and from the
AFP General Headquarters (GHQ) for
the year 2011, only P10.7 billion was

the delay in the
downloading of projects to procurement
centers and in the conduct of bidding and
procurement activities
thus,
P1.6

procedures; provide specific timeline in
processing of claims to maximize
utilization of funds.

Limit the activities to the agencys
mandated functions as identified in the
OPIF and focus more on the monitoring and
documentation of results from the users of
the technology to determine success or
failures which would help management in
further improving the technology.

Financial resources of P36,110,010.00


could have been saved and utilized for other
research and development projects had the
agency limited its activities to the
implementation of projects that are aligned

The forfeiture scheme of the unclaimed/

Employment (DOLE) OSEC
(a) In 2011, prospective employers of 13
POLOs were erroneously charged with
verification fees in the total amount of
P20,419,688.04 due to the use of fixed
arbitrary rates which were neither the spot
rate or collection rate, as periodically
determined by the DFA in computing for
the local currency equivalent of the US$10
verification
fee
pursuant
to
DOLE/DFA/DBM/DOF/
COA
Joint
Circular No. 3-99 dated September 28,
1999. (b) The recorded collections in the
books of the DOLE-OSEC were
understated by P20,711,535.12 as the same
arbitrary fixed rate of exchange was used in
computing for the United States dollar
(US$) equivalent of the total local currency
collection, or the fixed rate of US$10 per
document verified.

Make representation with the concerned


agencies to revisit existing guidelines on
the collection rates to be applied in the
collection of verification fees in the posts in
order to arrive at just fair and proper
collection rates; apply the average rate of
exchange for the month in converting local
currency to US$ and eventually to
Philippine Peso, observe diligence in the
use of conversion rates, carefully review the
computations, and prepare the necessary
adjusting entries to correct the affected
accounts.

Require Manila Economic Cultural Office


(MECO) to account for the excess funds
including interest earned from the Third
Portion/Common Fund as of CY 2008 up
to December 31, 2011 and remit DOLEs
share pursuant to the provisions of existing
MOAs; through the FMS, take up such
share in the Third Portion/Common Fund
in the books of accounts; and initiate the
amendment of existing MOAs to the effect
that the verification fee collections set
aside for the Third Portion/Common Fund
should not be considered as the share of
MECO but the share of DOLE which is to
be administered by MECO.

(c) While the amounts set aside for the


Third Portion/Common Fund are intended
for DOLEs programs and projects in
Taiwan, these were considered as MECOs
share under the existing MOAs, thereby
understating the receivable, income,
expense and cash accounts by the same
amounts. Moreover, DOLE did not even
assert its rights under the MOAs to demand
its share on the excess funds including
interest
earned
from
the
Third
Portion/Common Fund. For CYs 2010 and
2011 alone, comparison of actual
collections with the approved Work and

and making as basis the amount of Agency
Budget Matrix (ABM)/Special Allotment
Release Orders (SAROs) in the Monthly
Cash Program (MCP) submitted to DBM
instead of the
actual
due and
demandable obligations, resulted in the
lapsing/reversion of unutilized and excess
Notice of Cash Allocation (NCA)/Notice of
Transfer of Allocation (NTA) in an
aggregate amount of P148,855,753.41, and
may open the possibility for the agency to
utilize the excess amount for purposes other
than the intended ones.

Prepare a procurement plan/program for the


repair and maintenance of national roads
and bridges and implement the same on
schedule taking into consideration the
annual budget released to them by the

steel bollards, blinking lights and tower
lights, amounting to P2,922,275.00,
P302,032.00 and P514,976.00, respectively
or totaling P3,739,283.00, had the turnover
of the items been required of the contractor
after the conduct of inventory upon
completion of the current project, thus,
making possible the generation of savings
from incoming projects.

Strictly require the contractor to make an


inventory of the steel bollards and blinking
lights and have it turned over upon
completion of the projects to the Office to
be utilized in future projects and to reduce
project cost.

(b) An asset originally recorded without


title under Land Account (201) valued at
P39,039,593.50 was reclassified into
Construction In Progress (266) even
without any identified projects and
documents to support the reclassification
made, thereby, casting doubts on the
existence, reliability and propriety of the
asset account.

Exert more effort in the retrieval of


documents to support the reclassification of
the land account to Construction In
Progress Account. Coordination with the
Land Registration Authority should be
made to determine the designated owner of
the land as indicated in the official records .

The swapping of the office building
between Provincial Environment and
Natural Resources Office (PENRO)
located at Mabini Superhighway, Barangay
Aplaya and City Environment and Natural
Rresources Office (CENRO) located in
Barangay Matti, all in Digos City through a
regional directive had grossly undermined
the purpose and intent of PD No. 740 dated

agency to incur capital investment for the
repair and rehabilitation of office building
in the amount of P2,371,965.84 on a lot not
owned by the agency in violation of
existing laws, rules and regulations.

Re-visit Proclamation No. 740 dated

Peoples Organizations (POs) contracted to
produce seedlings procured from outside
sources, defeating the purpose of the
National Greening Program (NGP) and
depriving them of immediate employment
and income that could have been derived
from said activities.

Encourage POs to produce seedlings


through the establishment and maintenance
of nurseries as the NGP would require
additional seedlings for the next five years.
These nurseries should be strictly
monitored as to seedling quality and
quantity. A team from the Regional Office
should be created to validate the status of
these seedlings as reported in the
accomplishment reports of the Provincial
Environment and Natural Resources
Offices (PENROs)/City Environment and
Natural Resources Offices (CENROs).
