    ***Did you know***

    When an accountant determines the financial statements contain one or more departures from GAAP, the first action is to ask management to revise the financial statements. If management refuses, the next action is to consider modifying one or more paragraphs to illustrate the departure and disclose the dollar effects. If a modified report is not sufficient to express the deficiencies, the accountant should withdraw from the engagement.

    I like this question

    An auditor established a $60,000 tolerable misstatement for an asset with an account balance of $1,000,000. The auditor selected a sample of every twentieth item from the population that represented the asset account balance and discovered overstatements of $3,700 and understatements of $200. Under these circumstances, the auditor most likely would conclude that

    A. There is an unacceptably high risk that the actual misstatements in the population exceed the tolerable misstatement because the total projected misstatement is more than the tolerable misstatement.

    B. There is an unacceptably high risk that the tolerable misstatement exceeds the sum of actual overstatements and understatements.

    C. The asset account is fairly stated because the total projected misstatement is less than the tolerable misstatement.

    D. The asset account is fairly stated because the tolerable misstatement exceeds the net of projected actual overstatements and understatements.

    Zag Co. issues financial statements that present financial position and results of operations but Zag omits the related statement of cash flows. Zag would like to engage Brown, CPA, to audit its financial statements without the statement of cash flows although Brown's access to all of the information underlying the basic financial statements will not be limited. Under these circumstances, Brown most likely would:

    A.add an emphasis-of-matter or other-matter paragraph to the standard auditor's report that justifies the reason for the omission.

    B.refuse to accept the engagement as proposed because of the client-imposed scope limitation.

    C.explain to Zag that the omission requires a qualification of the auditor's opinion.

    D.prepare the statement of cash flows as an accommodation to Zag and express an unmodified opinion.

    Answer is C – Omission of the statement of cash flow is not a client-imposed scope limitation.

    ***Did you know***

    Statistical sampling uses the laws of probability to make statements about a population. It allows the auditor to calculate the risk of reliance on the sample to assess control risk, and enables the auditor to make objective statements about the population on the basis of the sample. Because the auditor is able to measure and control the sampling risk, the auditor is able to measure the sufficiency of the audit evidence obtained.

    Good morning

    An auditor has determined the recorded amount of a population of accounts receivable to be $1,638,000 and has set the level of tolerable misstatement (TM) at $46,800. No errors were expected to be found in the population. Based upon a risk of incorrect acceptance of 5% and a reliability factor (RF) of 3, what is the sample size to be used for testing?

    A. 105

    B. 15,600

    C. 35

    D. Cannot be determined with the available information.

    A.cash flow increases and decreases.

    B.audit objectives and assertions.

    C.reclassifications and adjustments.

    D.reconciliations and tick marks
