    This question may or may not have been answered yet… just wanted to confirm:

    For the SIMS in 2014 audit exams, all the answers for the Authoritative literature questions are from the AU-C parts and not the regular AU parts correct?

    I remember reading about this in the Becker book somewhere but can't seem to find that section again.

    @emc407 – Yes, AU-C

    Can anyone explain how to identify inherent risk and control risk and how to determine if it increases, decreases, or doesn't effect inherent risk or control risk? I've had trouble with this and can't seem to grasp the concept.

    BEC 80

    FAR 86

    REG 80

    AUD 73, 68, 72, 1/9/2014

    BEC 80
    FAR 86
    REG 80
    AUD 73, 68, 72, 90!!

    DONE!!!

    Anyone else using Ninja Flashcards? Most of the chapters downloaded fine but a few ‘decks' like Information Technology and a couple others I get an error message about ‘sparsing a csv file' or something to that effect.

    @lsp2361

    What are you asking ?

    AR= IR*CR*DR ?

    Not sure – if you can change IR risk – b/c they are things like human judgement that causes errors.

    IR & CR cannot be altered with. But the auditor still needs to asses what the risks are for each of those.

    DR can be altered by increasing or decreasing testing.

    Good luck on your test on the 9th, looks like you are in the same boat as myself, thought BEC, FAR, & REG were easy. I am having difficulties with AUD.

    @23k: I've had simulations that give a scenario (like a company decides to use derivatives). It wants me to decide if you would increase/decrease/no effect the assessed inherent risk and control risk. I'm having trouble determining how to assess these risks.

    @ sieverd: I understand that IR and CR is assessed by the auditor and DR is controlled by the auditor. Maybe the above explanation helps clarify what I'm asking. It's hard to explain without an example to go by. Good luck on your upcoming test as well! Audit is the hardest!!!! Report back on how you think it went!
