Abstract

All companies have an accounting department, but the internal auditing department is structured when the management of a company is getting more difficult, paralleling to its growing and complexity.It has been studied in this article the function of an internal auditing department, the possible risks, disorders, and collaboration with accounting in order to minimize these points as much as possible. It is clear that the main information source of auditing is accounting records, financial reports, analysis, etc. The closer collaboration needs to be established for the big size companies because controlling the assets would be more complicated for big companies that have multiple complex departments. For these types of large scale businesses, there are clearly so many objects in order to establish a strict collaboration. How the collaboration can be, what they can provide each other, how they should support their works, where they must act together, and other possible questions can be raised. The answers to these questions should establish all necessary procedures, and strict applications of these procedures would add considerable value to complex organizations.
