Audit Methodology

The Commission has been implementing a risk-based audit in the conduct of its audit services.
However, to meet the evolving developments in public governance and fund management, the
results-based approach in the audit was incorporated.

Scope of Audit

An audit was conducted on the accounts and operations of the Municipal Government of
Vallehermoso for 2024. The audit consisted of a review of operating procedures, evaluation of
the LGU’s programs and projects, interview of concerned government officials and employees,
verification, reconciliation, confirmation, inspection, and analysis of accounts, and such other
procedures considered necessary.
