Explanation:

Internal controls refers to policies and procedures implemented by the management of an organization so as to ensure efficient operations and prevent and detect frauds and misstatements.

Objectives of internal controls include, proper executions and prompt recording of transactions, safeguarding of assets from unauthorized use, comparison of recorded assets periodically with actual assets at disposal and timely prevention and detection of misstatements.

Safeguarding of assets refers to those policies and rules that provide the auditor with reasonable assurance w. r. t prevention and detection of misuse and disposition of an entity's assets that are capable of casting a material effect upon financial statements.
