What are management's incentives for establishing and maintaining strong internal controls? What would be the disadvantages/potential weaknesses and costs?
Strong internal controls ensure that assets and recordsare properly safeguarded. Management also needs a control system that generates reliable information decision making. If the information system does not generate reliable information, management may be unable to make informed decisions about issues such as product pricing, cost of production, and profit information.
The disadvantage may be it is time consuming, also it can be lack of knowledge, or may be it is difficult to understand and cost sensitive.
