expenditure system is needed that can facilitate the
flow of information on a transaction. And a
monitoring system is needed for the implementation
of accounting information systems in the form of
supervision of the internal control system. Good
internal control of cash requires adequate procedures
to protect cash receipts and disbursements. The
procedures used to supervise cash can vary from one
company to another. This depends on various
factors, such as the size of the company, number of
employees, cash sources, and so on.
LP3I is an Indonesian Professional Education
and Development Institute in Sidoarjo that cannot be
separated from cash receipts and disbursements
transactions. Monthly student payments are
relatively paid in cash so the company has a very
high cash flow. The movement of cash in and out of
cash occurs rapidly in large volumes. For this
reason, it is necessary to have a mutually supportive
relationship between the cash receipt function and
the cash disbursement function to produce
information needed by the company. In addition,
adequate internal control is also needed for each
cash receipt and expenditure activity.
2 LITERATURE REVIEW
2.1 Accounting Information System
The cash accounting system consists of methods and
records created to identify, collect, analyze, classify,
record and report transactions related to cash during
an accounting period. The cash accounting system is
designed to handle cash receipts and disbursements.
An accounting information system is the
organization of forms, records, and reports that are
coordinated in such a way as to provide financial
information needed by management to facilitate the
management of the company (Mulyadi, 2013: 3).
Baridwan (1998: 6) states: The accounting
information system consists of forms, records,
procedures and tools used to process data regarding
an attempt at an economic error in order to generate
feedback in the form of reports that management is
required to oversee its businesses and other
interested parties such as shareholders, creditors, and
government agencies to assess the results of
operations. From this definition it can be seen that
the accounting information system is a collection of
activities such as recording transactions, classifying,
processing, summarizing, analyzing and reporting
information that is useful for carrying out activities
and objectives of a company.
2.2 Cash Receipt Accounting
Information System
The company's cash receipts come from two main
sources: cash receipts from cash sales and cash
receipts from receivables. (Mulyadi, 2013: 462),
1. Accounting Information System Cash Receipts
from Cash Sales
According to Mulyadi (2013: 470), internal
control elements that should be in the Cash
Receipt Accounting System from cash sales are:
1) Organization
1. The sales function must be separate from
the cash function. The sales function
which is an operating function must be
separated from the cash function which is
a storage function. This separation results
in each cash receipt from cash sales being
carried out by two functions that check
each other.
2. The cash function must be separate from
the accounting function. Based on the
elements of a good internal control
system, the accounting function must be
separated from the operating functions
and storage functions. This is intended to
safeguard the company's wealth and
ensure the accuracy and reliability of
accounting data.
3. Cash sales transactions must be carried
out by sales functions, cash functions,
shipping functions, and accounting
functions. There are no cash sales
transactions that are carried out
completely by only one function. With the
implementation of each cash sale
transaction by various functions, there
will be an internal checking of each of
these functions by other functions.
2) Authorization System and Recording
Procedure
Authorization System and Registration
Procedure in Cash Receipt Accounting
System from cash sales, namely:
1. Receipt of orders from buyers is
authorized by the sales function using the
cash sales invoice form.
2. Cash receipts are authorized by the cash
function by affixing a "paid off" stamp on
the cash sales invoice and attaching the
cash register ribbon to the invoice.
3. Sales with a bank credit card are preceded
by an authorization request from the
credit card issuing bank.
