2Background: The Office of the Accountant General NWFP was

established on 1st April, 1929 as a small Pay & Accounts Office and wasresponsible for Audit & Accounts of both Federal and Provincialtransactions in NWFP. Subsequently it was re-designated as Comptroller,NWFP on 1st November 1931. It continued to function as such till July,1973, when its status was raised to that of Accountant General becauseof the tremendous increase in the scope of its activities and load of work.

2Apart from NWFP and its adjacent Tribal Agencies, the audit jurisdiction

of this office also covered Northern Areas (Gilgit & Baltistan).The audit ofNorthern Areas was, however, transferred in 1974 to the AccountantGeneral Pakistan Revenues (AGPR) Islamabad. Similarly, in the case of

Frontier Irregular Corps (Scouts & Militia), the audit jurisdiction of thisoffice extended to Baluchistan. But on the formation of separate office ofthe Inspector General, Frontier Corps of Quetta in 1974, the audit of theUnits in Baluchistan was transferred to the Comptroller, Baluchistan. Onthe formation of one Unit, the audit of two adjacent Districts in Punjab,Attock and Mianwali was transferred to this office from office of theAccountant General, Punjab. Correspondingly, owing to centralization ofworks audit in office of the Director, Works Audit, Lahore, the worksportion was transferred from this office. These arrangements were

2.8 Accounting Accounting in a general sense, may be considered as a process in which the transaction ofan operating entity are documented, classified and recorded, for the purpose of accumulating and providingfinancial information essential to the conduct of designated activities. This definition may be expanded toinclude such features as system design, which involves the development of recording methods andnecessary internal central; the documentation and verification of financial transactions; the maintenance ofrecords and books of accounts (book keeping); the continuous testing of accuracy and propriety of therecords, and of the effectiveness of internal control (internal auditing), the periodic summary review oftransactions practices and procedures (external auditing). Another definition in some-what different words isalso there. Accounting may be defined as the composite activity of analyzing, recording, summarizing andinterpreting the financial transactions of any economic enterprise. Government accounting may be said tocomprise these same activities for a government entity that organized legislative, executive and judicialmachinery of the state, which by low governs and provides certain public services for citizens in establishedgeographical areas. 2.8.1Government Accounting Accounting is the “language” employed to communicatethe financial information, such information is sought for a variety of reasons, owners and perspectiveowners of a business enterprise need to know about its financial status and its prospects for the future.Bankers and suppliers appraise the financial soundness of business organization and weigh the risk involvedbefore making loans or granting credit. Government agencies are concerned with the financial activates ofbusiness organizations for the purposes of taxation and regulation. Employees are also vitally interested inthe stability and profitability of the organization that employees them. The managers of business enterprisesneed a wide range of data of every fact of operation much of which is made available through accounting.The managers of small business may be thoroughly familiar with all operating and financial details and henceneed relatively little accounting information. As the size of a business unit increases, the manager becomesfarther and farther removed from direct contact with day-to-day operations. He must be supplied with timelyfinancial information about various aspects of the business. The growth of large business units and have theimportance of accounting in organization has given rise to the expression that accounting provides the “eyesand ears of management”. In the modern world fresh needs, social or economic are emerging everyday.Government tries their best to respond to these needs. With this aim in view, they have to assume newfunctions and activities. This new trend is particularly noticeable in the developing countries. There thegovernment provides direct support in development and utilization of resources and sometimes even directlyparticipate in the production process in major sectors of economy. In such circumstances, a sound financialbase for planning, coordinating and carrying out various functions and activities is necessary. This, in turn,necessitates the use of efficient and modern methods in accounting for those functions and activities.Government accounting satisfies the needs of accountability and administrative control of funds. Thoseresponsible for the incurrence of expenditure have had to render proper accounts of their park ranger andprove that the funds were spent in accordance with the authority under which they were provided by thelegislature. Not only that, accounting is today needed to provide that various kinds of financial data whichare essential for such purposes as planning, program analysis and selection budgeting, efficientmanagement and control of cost. In simple words government accounting is needed because of followingreasons. 2.8.2 Commercial Accounting V/S Government Accounting. The principles of commercial andgovernment accounting differ in certain vital points. The main aspects of contrast are those of functions,principles, methods and purposes. The main function of a commercial concern is to trade i.e. to take part inproduction, manufacturing or inter change of goods or commodities between different groups or individualand thereby to make profit. On the other hand, the function of government is to govern a country and for thedischarge of that function to administer the several departments of its activities in the best possible way. As

far as the principles are concerned, a non government commercial concern deals preliminary with theutilization of capital for the purpose of making profit and it is interested to see at intervals how it stands inrelation to its debtors and creditors whether it is gaining or losing, what are the sources of its gain a loss,and whether it is solvent or insolvent. In order to obtain ready answer to these questions, the concern has tokeep a system of detailed account. In respect of each person dealt with, each class of asset held, eacharticle dealt in, it maintains a separate account so that the result of the transactions in each case may beascertained. On the other hand, the activities of a good Government in any country are determined by theneeds of the country. The main branches of its activities being known, it is a matter for decision whatexpenditure will be necessary during any year in carrying out, these activities. After a decision has beenreached on these points, it becomes necessary to determine how to raise sufficient money to meet thatexpenditure. The classification in the accounts of the transactions of the Federal and ProvincialGovernments is determined firstly by the administrative classification of the activities and secondly by theclassification of the nature of the transactions. The accounting is, therefore, more elaborate than thatfollowed in commercial accounts. But the immediate objective of Government Accounts is not to ascertainthe gain or loss on the transactions of the Government as a whole in carrying out these activities. In the twocases the methods utilized for preparing accounts also differs. It is the Generally Accepted AccountingPractices (GAAP) in the commercial world to maintain account books by the “Double Entry” system, which inbased on the fact that is every transaction or financial change two parties or accounts are involved, onegiving and the other receiving. Under that system every transaction requires two entries in the books, oneagainst the party or account giving and the other against the party or account receiving. The mass of theGovernment Accounts is kept by single entry. Single entry system means a system under which single effectof financial transaction is recorded in book of accounts. For example when revenue3 is realized only receiptentry is recorded and its corresponding effect is not exhibited. Similarly when a payment is made only theentry concerning the payment is recorded. Non-Government commercial accounts are designed to showhow much money the concern can put in to the pockets of the proprietors consistently with the maintenanceof a profit earning standards of the concern. In contrast to this, Government Accounts are designed toenable government to determine how little money it need take out of the pockets of the tax payers in order tomaintain its necessary activities at the proper standard of efficiency. 2.8.3 Need for Government Accounting2.8.3.1 Legislative Requirement Overall control and release of funds is exercised by the legislature. Allfinancial matters in government are subject to consideration, approval and review by the legislature. Theextent and nature of this control by the legislature may vary among countries for a number of reasons andmay also differ according to the kind of activities involved. The fact, however, the executives proposeremains that plan of expenditure while these are reviewed, sometimes modified, and approved by thelegislature. The approved proposals are executed as an executive responsibility, and operation are in thelast process, subjected to a past review by the legislature. Executive authorities carry out the responsibility,assigned to them with the funds made available to them by the legislature. These authorities posses nointrinsic power for raising revenue or incurring expenditure. In financial matters, they exercise only thedelegated authority, which comes from the legislature, basic law or the construction of the country. 2.8.3.2Accountability Requirement The government servants, entrusted with the performance of financial acts, ofthe various rungs of the governmental setup, are accountable to the extent of their respective assignments.In order to demonstrate this accountability some mechanism is required. And it is these accounts, whichprove the means of measurement of the extent to which that accountability has been fulfilled. 2 . 8 . 3 . 3 C on t r o l o f F u n d s R e q u i r e m e n t The preparations of complete and accurate accounts are alsoneeded as means to facilitate an adequate control on funds allocated for the several purposes. 2 . 8 . 3 . 4 I

n t e r n a t i o n a l R e q u i r e m e n t The maintenance of the correct, proper and complete and accurate inall senses is required for the satisfaction of international bodies like the Internal Monetary Fund (IMF), Aid toPakistan consortium, Asian Development Bank (ADB) etc. 2 . 8 . 3 . 5 C o m p e t i t i o n R e q u i r e m e n tAgain in order to provide a sense of healthy competition in the efficient working amongst the severaldepartments of the government, the upkeep of accounts on correct lines, is essential. 2.8.4 Features ofaccounting system of Pakistan: Accounting system of Pakistan has several features discussed as under.2.8.4.1 Cash Book: Accounting system of Pakistan is based on actual receipts and payments of cash andnot on the basis of accruals of right and obligations. This book is maintained at District Accounts Office.2.8.4.2 Single Entry System: Accounting transactions are recorded on single entry system. Now governmenthas developed its system to New Accounting Model and doing double entry system with help of computersoftware SAP. Now accounting transactions are recording on double entry system. 2.8.5 Basic AccountingUnit: DAO’s of civil Government are the basic accounting units in Pakistan. These offices perform the dualfunction of maintaining the accounts and auditing. Therefore DAO’s are consisting of Audit staff under theAGP (Auditor General of Pakistan) and Account staff under the Control of Finance Department of provincialGovernment. 2.8.6 Closing the Accounts: Formally accounts of the Government of Pakistan are closedannually or at the end of each financial year. But DAO’s closed its accounts on half yearly and monthly basiswhich helps the DAO’s to constitute annually closing. Government financial year starts from 1st July andends on 30th June every year. 2.8.7 Compilation and Consolidation of Accounts: After the basic accountingunits have put together the figures of Expenditures and receipts etc. In different heads of accounts these aresent to the accounts and audit department for compilation. After compilation of accounts these are sent toexecutive government. 2.8.8 Centralization of Accounts: The government accounts of Pakistan arecentralized in the sense that while the receipts are made by the administrative departments. The need toremove this anomaly has been felt and duty of maintaining the initial and intermediate accounts is beingentrusted to the department concerned. So far this process has been completed in respect of Defense,Foreign affairs, Railways, Forest, National savings, Post office, Telephones and Telegraphs etc. Sameprocess prevails in other departments and is under review and study. 2.8.8 New Accounting Model NAM hasbeen adopted as the accounting model for Pakistan. Recording of commitments, fixed assets and certainAssets and Liabilities are the aspects and features of NAM. 2.8.8.1 Commitments Recording ofcommitments did not have an immediate impact on the cash position but do have effect on the budgetavailability. 2.8.8.2 Fixed Assets NAM introduces recording of Fixed Assets which would help in effectivemaintenance and monitoring. The availability of a list of Fixed Assets and their value would greatly help inassigning responsibility for the care and maintenance of accounts. 2.8.8.3 Certain Assets & Liabilities Therecording of certain Assets and Liabilities as part of modified cash basis of accounting will help in providinguseful information for decision making and for disclosure in the financial statements. The difference shouldbe noted that using the cash basis of accounting or previous system of accounting helps in controlling thecash against budget amounts and allows only the statement of receipts & payments to be generated. TheModified Cash Basis of accounting or NAM on the other hand helps in controlling not only cash but alsocommitments against budget allowing the production of statement of Assets and Liabilities and a cash flowstatement.

Threats is called

1SWOT analysis. It is one of the most important steps in formulating

strategy using the organization mission.

The

3goal is to then develop good strategies and exploit opportunities &

strengths, naturalize threats and avoid weakness. 4. 3 .1 Strengths: ? Oldest

Institution: AG is one of the

old offices in the province working for a longer period of time in the Province. DAO Perform alternativeduties at the time needed. ? Alternative Duties: ? Employee Benefits: Employees of AG office are offeredreasonable monetary benefits i.e. Eid-ul-fitar and eid-ul –azah allowances and sometimes extra salary forany achievement done by the employee.

3This serves as additional benefits and competency for the source of

motivation for the employee. ? Broad network: It has

3broad network of branches throughout the province, also one office in

every district is there to serve the needs of government employees. The subscribers

3are provided services at their nearest possible place to confirm

subscriber’s satisfaction. ? Strictly followed rules and Regulations: The

employee of the AG office is strict follower of rules and regulation imposed by the AG. This enhances thediscipline of the office and results in better output. ? Healthy environment:

and favorable for better output.

3Relation between staff and employees: Office enjoys a good plus point

when it come to the employee- officer relationship.

Strong interpersonal relationship exists among employees and their bosses which serve as motivation foremployees. 4.3.2 Weakness ?

3Under Political Pressure: The strong political hold of some parties and

Government and their dominance is affecting the Account office in negative

way. They have to

favor those individuals who have a strong back of any politician. This leads to uneven and hatred feeling inthe other employees of the office. ?

3Favoritism and nepotism: The promotion and allowances etc in office are often

powered by senior’s favoritism or depends upon their wills and decisions

.This adds to negative factors, which dominate the employees thus

resulting in affecting their performance negatively. ? Lack of financial

product: The Accounts office falls far behind when the innovative new

schemes are considered. It has not been involved in the tug of war between

the competitors to the accounts and the strengthening of the existing

subscribers’ base. This stands out to be the major incompetence and

weakness of the

office. Moreover the office

3has deficiency to operate in the stages of rush hours.

? Lack of Modern Equipments: The Accounts office lacks the modern equipments.

3Even if there is any equipment they lack to fall in the criteria of being

rearmed as update and upgraded. ? Uneven work distribution: The work load

in the Accounts office is not evenly distributed and this work load tends to be

more on some employees while other run away from their responsibilities,

which serve as a demodulation factor for employees’ performance above

average

works. 4.3.3 Opportunities In any organization where there are weaknesses, opportunities also exist. Theyare just needed to be explored for the betterment of the organization. ? Training and developmentprogrammes; Office should arrange training programmes for its employees so that every individual inside theoffice know about how the task is to be performed effectively. 4.6.4 Threats Threats can disturb the overallperformance of the organization so it depends upon the organization that how to handle those threats andsave the goodwill of the organization. Following threats are faced by District Accounts Office. ? Politicalpressures by the elected Govt: The elected government may enforce the officers to take decisionsaccording to the government’s wish and will thus restricting them in their autonomy. ? Downsizing:Downsizing is a common but ill practice in almost all the government offices. Thus, here too, employees facethe threats of being downsized ? Subscribers complaints: Subscriber complaints is another threat to theoffice, these complaints, may be due to mismanagement of the staff in performing the clients work or may bedue the delay in payments etc, they seriously impact the performance of the office. 4.4 Human ResourceManagement Analysis: Following issues are needed to be properly addressed in regard to human resource.?

3Need for better training program ? Developing managerial leadership ?

Transfer ? Marketing at desk ? Lack of business ? Communication.

4.5 Critical analysis: Critical analysis is mainly based on practical experience at the District Accounts Office.? Subscriber’s satisfaction: In District Account Office, subscribers

1dealing is well, but during the rush hour, subscribers has to wait for a long

time for there turn, thus its quite hard for a new subscribers or potential

subscribers to get the required information . ? Poor Record Management and

Filing System: During the internship it has been observed that filing system

of office is not good when certain record is needed the staff has to

struggle to find it out and a lot of time is wasted.

?

1Unequal distribution of work: The work is not equally distributed among

the employees. On one hand some employee have to work all day without

relaxing while some other have nothing to do at all. This not only creates

confusion among employees but hurts their feelings and

14 of 18 25-Jun-14 6:14 PM

Page 15: Aneela Turnitin Originality Report

disturbs the over all

1setup of the office. Above all it results in dissatisfaction among subscribers

as well.

4.6 Functional Analysis: ? Approach to higher officers: In District Accounts Office, an employee at low levelcan not go straight away to the officer and

1ask him about the problem faced by him. He first has to talk to his

immediate superior and follow a proper channel of communication. ?Difference between theory and practice: A vast difference exists between

written procedure and

the practical work done by the employees at the office. Not all of the rules are obeyed as they are quoted. ?

1Excessive paper work: It is noticed that due to the lengthy procedures of

paper work, the accounts office employees are over burdened. They are

unable to give proper attention to the clients and face difficulties ingetting their job done. One reason for lengthy procedures and excessive

paper work in the office is the lack of computerized technology

with every personnel. ? Delegation of Authority: The District comptroller of accounts has a limited authority.For most of the decisions, he has to take approval from AG Office. 4.15

1Administrative Analysis ? Job analysis is not effective: On the basis of

job analysis it can be decided that how a right person could be hired,

trained, compensated or promoted. It is very important for an organization

to hire the

person according to the job specification. But here in district accounts office,

1most of the employees are simple graduate and do not have proper

background about their job. This creates problems both for the

organization and for the employees.

?

1Lack of specialized training: District accounts office does not provide

adequate facility of specialized training to their staff. Training isgeneralized rather than specialized. As the worker finishes his training,he is induced into a specific field without having great deal of knowledge

about the field.

?

1Poor job rotation: There is absence of job rotation in

District Accounts office Abbottabad.

1A person placed in one- departments remains their forever. It reduces

career opportunities as well boredom and in the end, results in careerplaguing. Job rotation is very important for employees especially for those

who are newly recruited .The newly recruit should be rotated in all

departments of the office in order to make them familiar with working of

different departments. So that when they get a responsible position, theyhave know-how of the whole system.

Chapter: 5 Findings and Recommendations 5.1 Findings: ? Employee empowerment: During the internship, Ihave observed that employees are not much empowered to take many of the decisions. They have to takeapproval from higher authorities for any kind of proceedings. ? Strict bureaucratic control: Office structurefollows strict rules and regulations. They work upon set procedures and can exercise the power only in theirdomain and that too even very little. ? Resistant to change: Employees only know their own seat work, theyknow least about what’s going on in the other departments of the office. They are trained to their routineschedule and are resistant to change their procedures and work environment. ? Leg pulling; Leg pulling iscommon in almost all the government offices. Everyone tries to plagiaries the work performed by otherperson. 5.2 Recommendations and suggestions: ?

1Professional Training: DAO staff lacks the professionalism. They lack the

necessary training to do the job efficiently and properly. Although staffcolleges are there in all major cities but they are not performing well. For

this purpose these staff colleges should be recognized and their syllabus

16 of 18 25-Jun-14 6:14 PM

Page 17: Aneela Turnitin Originality Report

should be made in such a way to help to the employee to understand the

ever changing global economic scenario. ? Delegate Authority: Employees of

the DAO should

3be given a task and authority and they should be asked for their

responsibility. ? Performance Appraisal: District Accounts Officer should

strictly monitor the performance of every staff member. And all of them

should be awarded according to their performance

because performance based appraisal bring in motivation and incite the employee to work more effectively.? Transfer: Transfer is not properly carried out. Some employees are continually serving at the same post.They are simply rotated at the same office. Therefore it is recommended that evenly rotation of everyemployee should take place after every three years in different district. ? Flexible

1Policies: There should not be any abrupt policies by the upper

management, as this practice hurts the subscriber’s confidence in the

Accounts Office. ? Appoint

1Qualified Staff: Required qualified staff should be provided to the accounts

office in order to improve the functioning of the

office. ? Technology

1Advancement: I would like to suggest that at least all the Districts of the

Accounts offices should be fully computerized in order to expedite the

dealing process among the all ADO and their subscribers. Every

DAO and ADAO and all the employees must be familiar with the software being used in the office for theaccounting system.

1Daily records should be entered directly into these computers.

1It will not only reduce transaction time but will increase the accuracy

and efficiency. Moreover,

3it will be economical and will also reduce the extra burden of work at the

disposal of every employee.

3It will also help in reducing the use of excessive paper work. ? Even

distribution of Work: Proper work distribution leads to success in every

organization

and

1prevents the employees from over and under work situation. So for smooth

and efficient operations of the office, proper distribution of the work should be

there to

avoid burden over some employees. ? Inter Departmental Transfer: There are number of employees who areserving

1one seat for many years. It can have a negative effect on the motivation of

employees who are hard working and intelligent. ? Handling of

subscribers’ complaints:

1There should be an information desk to provide the information and to

receive the complaints of the subscriber in the

office. Moreover a website should be maintained by the office through which it can handle the complaints asevery person can not go to the office. So it is suggested to

1management to install a Complaint box and recruit a special person for that

guidance of the subscriber when they are unable mange some difficulties in

office matter. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 3435 36 37 38 39
