Mr. President, everyone at LJB needs to understand the definition of internal control and what is required of them under the SOX law since this law requires a combined effort from top management and employees alike. Internal control “consists of all the related methods and measures adopted within an organization to safeguard its assets, enhance the accuracy and reliability of its accounting records, increase efficiency of operations, and ensure compliance with laws and regulations” (Kimmel, Weygandt & Kieso, 2009, pp. 327-328).
