The problem with waiting is that if controls are not in place at the beginning of the year, adverse Section 404 reports are highly likely.

Emphasis will be placed on key controls and company level controls that significantly influence the control structure in smaller organizations.
What were the key accounting issues that caused adverse Section 404 reports in year one?
Discussion of impact of IT on internal controls, computer systems conversions and timing.
What were the key internal control findings in year one?
Discussion of design of internal controls and impact on adverse Section 404 results.
