The main goal of internal controls is to protect, achieve, and support an organization's objectives. Internal control plays a crucial role in ensuring effective and efficient operations, reliable financial reporting, and compliance with laws and regulations. The COSO framework provides a comprehensive guide for implementing effective internal control measures. Weak internal control can lead to poor company performance and low-quality accounting. Internal control is closely linked to the audit process, and auditors rely on internal control systems to ensure the accuracy and reliability of financial statements. There are three types of control - preventive, detective, and corrective - that help mitigate risks and address issues. Several determinants contribute to the effectiveness of internal control systems, but there are limitations to these systems, such as the difficulty of preventing or detecting errors and fraud. This research is intended to address the challenges and improve the effectiveness of internal control systems.
