§ 77789 Commission Audit Requirements

Key Takeaways

  • •The group must keep good records of all their money and work.
  • •Every year, an outside company checks these records to make sure everything is correct.
  • •A short report of this check is shared with the people involved and the government.
  • •The government can also do their own check if they think it's needed.

Example

Imagine a school club that sells cookies to raise money.

The club must write down every cookie sold and all the money they make. Once a year, a teacher who isn’t in the club checks their notes to make sure everything adds up. The club then tells everyone who helped sell cookies how much money they made. If the principal thinks something is wrong, they can check the club’s notes too.
