Introduction
General Accounting Instructions
Article IX-D Section 2(2) of the 1987 Philippine Constitution gives the
Commission on Audit the authority to promulgate accounting rules and
regulations.
Section 334(c) of RA 7160, otherwise known as the Local Government Code of
the Philippines, states that: “The financial records of the barangay shall be kept
in the office of the city or municipal accountant in a simplified manner as
prescribed by the Commission on Audit”. (Underscoring supplied)
COA Resolution No. 2014-003 dated January 24, 2014 requires the adoption of
Philippine Public Sector Accounting Standards (PPSAS) by all government
agencies, hence, the need for the alignment of the barangay accounting to the
said standards.
