6.3 During the audit, we noted that the amount of the LDRRMF Current Year
    Appropriation presented in the Notes to FS reflected only the initial annual
    appropriation of ₱8,040,962.35 along with a portion of the supplemental budget
    amounting to ₱4,215,422.82. The budget revisions made during the year were not
    fully considered. In fact, the final amount of the LDRRMF appropriation for CY
    2024, as indicated in the LDRRMFIP and LDRRMFIP Addendum No. 1, was
    ₱13,821,385.17. Thus, a difference of ₱1,565,000.00 was not disclosed in the Notes
    to FS as of December 31, 2024.

6.4 A review of the addendum to the LDRRMFIP showed additional appropriations,
    however, the corresponding numerical or narrative disclosures included in the Notes
    to FS were incorrect.

6.5 The Notes to FS provide explanatory details on the accounts and accounting policies
    that enhance the value and clarity of the financial statements. Since the preparation of
    the FS, including the Notes, is the responsibility of Management, it must be carried
    out with diligence and accuracy in both substance and form.

6.6 We recommended that, henceforth, the Municipal Accountant take into account
    the budget revisions made during the year to ensure that the current year
    appropriations for the LDRRMF are accurately disclosed in the Notes to FS as
    of December 31.

6.7 The Municipal Accountant submitted a corrected disclosure reflecting the previously
    omitted amounts and committed to properly disclose the LDRRM utilization
    henceforth.
