Auditor And Controller Agency In The County Of San Diego

1448 Words6 Pages

In this final part of the assignment I decided to review the role of the Auditor and Controller agency as, being my background in business administration and having a great passion for the Financial world, it would be the one that perfectly fits my knowledge and future career goals. Briefly, before getting to the point of the essay, I would like to spend few sentences explaining what is the Auditor and Controller agency. This agency is crucial for the city of San Diego as among its main duties there is the setting of the collection and administration of the main financial resources of the city in order to support the main services and projects which the County of San Diego implements. As we discussed in class communication is essential for …show more content…

The aim of this section is to inform all the citizens of the county of San Diego that, in case of unclaimed money that might be owed to an individual, some lists are available on the website in order to find the missing money. The city of San Diego, through the lists, provides warrants/checks (which were undeliverable by the postal service) that remain uncashed for a period of more than six months. In doing so citizens can review each list which is provided in alphabetical order and as a result, through the compilation of a module for unclaimed money, claim their money which is only repaid if the County of San Diego consider the claimer to be the rightful payee. Again, through this section the City is able to provide messages to citizens which might help them to recover money which otherwise would be …show more content…

I personally think that most of the time information is not provided efficiently and as a result, this creates a gap in the public administration scenario which turns to negatively affect both individuals and organizations. Effective policies and regulations are based on communication, without with individuals would be in the dark about what is happening on the government side. Furthermore, a lack of communication would also limit the involvement of citizens in the creation of effective policies for the community. In my country, for example, many citizens are badly informed on the policies our government provides and as a result, most of the time they either misinterpret their meaning or do not understand their importance. I must admit that from this point of view Italy is really far behind from other countries (as I previously explained also from the difference in the websites information) and this is one of the reasons why our government scenario is really ineffective. I made some research on the internet and I compared our local website with that of San Diego: there is an abyss between them. The San Diego site and in particular the Auditor and Controller agency one, which I previously analysed, provide detailed

    However, internal audits show findings and recommendations which act as a tool for department heads to take suitable corrective action and help in plugging the loopholes which would otherwise go undetected for a considerable period of time. The external audit lends credibility to the financial reporting process of state and local governments, and an essential element of that process is the independence of the external auditors from the governments they are auditing. Otherwise, those who use governmental financial statements cannot rely on the integrity and objectivity of the auditors’ report.

    Public administration, the art of turning big policy ideas into solid results, ranks among the very oldest of intellectual disciplines. As long as people have been documenting history, they have been writing about administration and governance. This can be traced all the way back to the first five books of the Bible; covering the study of organization, rule making, and bureaucratization to ensure that the Israelites walked in God’s ways. Also, Caesar’s commentary on the Gallic wars covers the administrative and political challenges he faced in subduing the Gauls and conquering Britain. Public administration is not only concerned with getting the government to work well, but also in relation to both promoting and limiting the exercise of

    Throughout examining past budgets, it was noticed that states usually tend to shift their expenditures towards the future in order to meet their current period budgets, and this usually occurs with states that have strict balanced budget requirements. The positive aspect towards balancing this city’s budget was to make sure that the budget is spent equally and efficiently on areas that need more focus within the city, since the city does not want any tax increases it should be able to spend money on maintaining basic city services for the neighborhoods as well addressing issues such as pension benefits, employment, employee health benefits and so on. As for the negative aspect to balancing the City of Calma’s budget is that it may not be easy to deal with a budget if the city is going through an economic crisis, there might be a recurring form of deficit spending which causes a negative effect on the value of the dollar. Also, percentages of the budget are usually used in order to finance activities that produce a particularly negative effect on the economic activities. For example, many agencies have relatively small budgets but they enforce great costs on the economy’s private
