ZINARA- Zimbabwe National Roads Administration iv PREAMBLE Introduction Following the end of the 2019 financial year for public entities, I take the opportunity to report my audit findings. The primary purpose of financial statements is to provide relevant and reliable information to users about a reporting entity financial statements include various stakeholders, inter alia ministers, parliament, development partners, the public at large. The objectives of a financial statements audit in the public sector are often broader than expressing an opinion on whether the financial statements have been prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with the applicable financial reporting framework but also address service delivery issues. Mandate My Office is mandated by the Constitution of Zimbabwe as amplified in the Audit Office Act [Chapter 22:18] to report to Parliament my findings on the examination of accounts of all public entities. In fulfilling this mandate, I do contract from time to time, some of the audits to registered public auditors in terms of the Public Accountants and Auditors Act [Chapter 27:12] as stated in Section 9 of the Audit Office Act [Chapter 22:18]. Accordingly, I have included audit findings from such auditors in this report. Audit approach I conducted my audits in accordance with the International Standards of Supreme Audit Institutions (ISSAIs) and the International Standards on Auditing (ISAs). These Standards require that I comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement. My audit approach was designed to enable me to express an opinion on the public entities All aspects of the entities consider maintenance of adequate internal controls to be the responsibility of management. My work cannot therefore, be expected to identify all weaknesses in the systems and procedures, which a special investigation directed at those areas might reveal. As to the possibility of fraud, I plan my audits to have a reasonable expectation of its disclosure if the potential effects of the fraud would be material in the financial statements. However, there are many kinds of fraudulent activities, particularly those involving defalcation, forgery, collusion and management override of controls, which would be unreasonable to expect the normal audit to uncover. The principal objective of my audit procedures is to enable me to express an opinion on the truth and fairness of the financial statements as

    Money Demand and Seignorage Maximization before the End of the Zimbabwean Dollar Stephen Matteo Miller and Thandinkosi Ndhlela MERCATUS WORKING PAPER All studies in the Mercatus Working Paper series have followed a rigorous process of academic evaluation, including (except where otherwise noted) at least one double-blind peer review. Working Papers present an author’s provisional findings, which, upon further consideration and revision, are likely to be republished in an academic journal. The opinions expressed in Mercatus Working Papers are the authors’ and do not represent official positions of the Mercatus Center or George Mason University. Stephen Matteo Miller and Thandinkosi Ndhlela. “Money Demand and Seignorage Maximization before the End of the Zimbabwean Dollar.” Mercatus Working Paper, Mercatus Center at George Mason University, Arlington, VA, February 2019. Abstract Unlike most hyperinflations, during Zimbabwe’s recent hyperinflation, as in Revolutionary France, the currency ended before the regime. The empirical results here suggest that the Reserve Bank of Zimbabwe operated on the correct side of the inflation tax Laffer curve before abandoning the currency. Estimates of the seignorage- maximizing rate derive from a short-run structural vector autoregression framework using monthly parallel market exchange rate data computed from the ratio of prices from 1999 to 2008 for Old Mutual insurance company’s shares, which trade in London and Harare.

    Zimbabwe to introduce Zimbabwe Bond Notes: reactions and perceptions of economic agents within the first seven days after the announcement MEFMI POLICY SEMINAR By Dr. A. Makochekanwa Deputy Dean – Faculty of Social Studies & Senior Lecturer - Department of Economics University of Zimbabwe 7th July 2016 Dr. A. Makochekanwa Outline 1. Introduction 2. Zimbabwe’s money use in perspective 3. Adoption of the multicurrency system 4. Proposed introduction of the Zimbabwe Bond Notes 5. Methodology 6. Findings 7. Conclusions and policy recommendation 7th July 2016 Dr. A. Makochekanwa Introduction "People are rushing to the bank to withdraw whatever they can as the significant concern is that people's hard-earned savings which are currently hard currency-dominated may soon be changed into a denomination of soft currency" (Mr. Busisa Moyo, President of Confederation of Zimbabwean Industries (CZI), The Sunday Mail, 15 May 2016). 7th July 2016 Dr. A. Makochekanwa Introduction . The demand for money is derived from its key functions as a store of value, medium of exchange, unit of account and a means of deferred payment. Keynes (1936), argues that there are three motives why rational economic agents would want to hold money at any particular point in time. These three motives are (i) transactions motive, (ii) precautionary motive and (iii) speculative motive. Thus the issuance of any money or anything which will mimic the functions of money in any society will always draw the attention of the majority citizens of that society. 7th July 2016 Dr. A. Makochekanwa Introduction . The announcement of the impending Zimbabwe Bond Notes by Reserve Bank of Zimbabwe (RBZ) on 4th May 2016 resulted in a lot of reactions and perceptions from various economic agents across the country, and some beyond the borders.
