Ultimate responsibility lies with the person in charge, and if you cannot accept that, you need to take a subordinate role. If your underlings cannot perform to proper standards, they must be replaced.

As the head office is dealing with most of the transactions, there is no need to maintain much books in the branch. A petty cash book and a bank book for your local bank will be enough. An imprest system of accounting will be suitable for these type of organizations.

In a nutshell it is a piece of legislation originated to increase potential shareholder/creditor confidence in publicly traded companies. One of the most significant parts of the Act is Section 404 which governs management's responsibility over internal controls (that the design and operation of the entity's processes promote financial statements free of material misstatement).\n\nWhat this means to companies is that they have increased costs in paying consultants to help them implement Section 404 to ensure their controls are up to snuff, as well as, increased costs of their independent auditor who will be spending increased time auditing these controls.  Additionally, company executives must issue a report stating that they are responsible for internal controls and that they are operating effectively.  If it is later determine that this was a misrepresentation on behalf of the company, there are potential recourse against key executives of the company.

For definition of an auditor, see the link below to Wikipedia.\n\nAuditors are generally accountants who review the accounting records of a person or an organization in order to render an opinon as to whether the financial statements of that person or organization fairly represent what the records actually show.\n\nAuditors may be internal or external. In order for an external auditor to render an opinion about financial statements, he/she must be a licensed Certified Public Accountant. Generally, the auditors opinion is issued by a firm and a partner of the firm who is a CPA signs the firm's name to the audit report.\n\nInternal auditors generally test accounting systems for proper accounting controls and adherence to rules and procedures. \n\nAccountants may also work as auditors for state or federal tax departments (such as the IRS) conducting tax audits of returns filed by individuals or corporations.\n\nOther accountants work for businesses in industry. They maintain systems designed to track the operation of the businesses, and take care of filing many of the reports required by government organizations. They also may be responsible for reconciling accounts, such as bank accounts, and creating monthly income statements, balance sheets and cash flow statements used by managers of the company. Also, many accountants work in an area in industry known as cost accountants. The focus of these accountants is determining the cost of products produced by a manufacturing company. Accountants may work at entry level jobs or they may supervise a staff of other accountants and bookkeepers in a larger department. They may also have a title of manager or controller. Generally, the controller is the chief accountant at a company and may report either to the Chief Financial Officer or the President of the company.\n\nAccountants may teach accounting or do research at colleges or universities.

This happens at the end of most courses at most institutions. It allows the examiners a chance to talk informally to the students themselves - usually exam marks and lecturers are the buffer between the two. It's certainly nothing to worry about & I doubt they will ask technical questions about your course! As I understand it they will usually pick a cross-section of "typical" (haha!) students that are firmly within grade boundaries rather than interrogating those on the borderlines, although as suggested it may well be they choose some based on excellent results. Any which way, the aim is to maintain the standard of degree courses, and thus the value of your degree.

Study your intermediate accounting text book.  Also, if you have text books from audit, tax, and business law classes it would be good to review.

That person handles certain details.  For example they may be responsible for personnel policies, issuing manual about employment, finding a health care coverage system.  They probably have to make sure all the bills are paid, like the water bill, etc.  They have to make sure you can meet the payroll.  They have to make sure there are evacuation instructions for fire in each room.  Everything it takes to run the institution.  They are not responsible for strategic goals like philosophically where the institution is supposed to be going.  More the nuts-and-bolts stuff to keep the place runnning.  Like air conditioners and roads and toilet paper in the bathrooms.  Complying with record-keeping rules.  Paying taxes.  Getting the place painted or new carpet or tile.  Deciding the priorities on how to spend money.  Making sure the phone system works, does it need upgrading and what new phone system to get...providing internet access, deciding the backbone.  Providing janitorial services and getting the trash pickeed up.  Oh yes, and all the systems of badges etc.  I feel it is much broader than human resources.  Depends on how big the institution is.  I mean this is kind of random but this type of stuff.

It sounds to me like your university is interested in changing with the times.  The "Vision" part focuses on how it's necessary to give students the skills that will help them compete in and work well with an increasingly international business world.  The "Mission" part is about making sure students learn the right things at the right time.  Your university says its mission is to keep a close eye on business and cultural trends and to provide an education that makes sense in light of these.  I hope this helps.
