    I’m studying with Becker and wondering about Derivatives.

    I have a few situations in which I’m trying to completely understand, this is hard stuff in my opinion:

    Impact on IR and CR and DR

    Example: A company decided to venture into derivatives/hedging to offset price fluctuations in materials or investments and this is their first year doing it.

    My thoughts: Inherent risk would increase and there would be no effect on control risk, detection risk would decrease.

    Example: The company hires a qualified manager to monitor the derivatives.

    Inherent risk stays same, control risk decrease, DR increase.

    Example: The entity implements what appears to be a stronger system of Internal Control for monitoring these derivative instruments

    Inherent risk stays the same, Control risk decrease and Detection risk would increase.

    Do these seem correct to you? Thanks yall
