    Hey guys quick question…in Becker on page 44 of chapter 1 it tells us we should modify the auditors opinion paragraph for inadequate disclosure. However, in WTB it says the auditors responsibility paragraph would not be modified. Just wanted to see what you guys thought.

    Auditor's responsibility and auditor's opinion are two different paragraphs. Auditor's opinion paragraph should be modified for inadequate disclosure. I hope this helps.

    Question with a Wiley Test Bank question regarding evidence. Does not make sense…

    If the objective of a test of details is to detect overstatement of sales, the auditor should trace transactions from the

    a. Cash receipts journal to the sales journal.

    b. Sales journal to the cash receipts journal.

    c. Source documents to the accounting records.

    d. Accounting records to the source documents.

    Answer they give is D. with this explanation…

    This answer is correct because tracing from the accounting records to source documents tests for overstatements (the existence assertion). For example, an auditor might trace from the sales journal to support such as sales invoices, shipping documents and customers' orders.

    I think it should be letter C. I thought you trace from source docs to accounting records. Also, I thought the existence assertion has to do with vouching not tracing. I know vouching has to do with overstatements I thought. Makes no sense, please help. Thanks.

    I thought C as well

    Tracing -> Completeness -> understatement -> source to records

    Vouching -> Existance -> overstatement -> records to source

    Because:

    1) T and C are before V and E (thanks Jeff)

    2) A, E, I, O, and U (E and O is closer together)

    Sometimes, Mistakes are found in Wiley πŸ™

    Oops, meant to write D before my explanation.

    Sometimes on Wiley Vouching and Tracing are both referred to as “tracing”

    Wiley can give tricky explanations πŸ™

    Overstatement will detect vouching (books down to source docs); tracing will detect understatement (source docs to books).
