Conclusion
From the Paper:
"There are actually twelve accounting, administrative, and executive employees. Of these twelve employees, only three come in direct contact with the accounting cycle procedures while the remaining executives are responsible for handling certain other company reports and supporting documents. The Company's Chief Financial Controller Officer, or CFO, the Assistant CFO, or CFA, and the Information Technology Manager, or IT [pronounciation: eye-tee] are the three directly involved in the accounting cycle processes at BSF. Keep in mind that the IT is only responsible for processing or working with the company computer systems, and he really has no other duties actually involved with the accounting process."
