C is corrent because the treasurer has custodial functional responsibility. Thus, the treasurer should have responsibility for the custody of the bonds. A is incorrect because the internal auditor should not be directly involved as such involvement would make an independent review of the structure impossible. B is incorrect because the chief accountant, who is in charge of the recordkeeping function, should not also maintain custody of the bonds. D is incorrect because the cashier function is more directly involved with details such as endorsing, depositing and maintaining records of cash receipts. The cashier should not maintain custody of the bonds.
