AAA – May 2023 – L3 – Q2 – Audit of IT Systems and Data Analytics

Discuss challenges and solutions for e-commerce assurance, ethical principles for forensic investigation, and assurance engagement reporting requirements.

Question

There is an indication of increasing application of technology in the business and commercial world. Many activities are now carried out on a real-time basis, and payment systems are gradually reducing the use of cheques.

Your new audit client is one of the companies that has recently enhanced its business settings with respect to receipts and payments. The previous auditor has little depth in information and communication technology despite the growing trend. The client’s management also thinks that its performance in the past has been inadequately reported due to the complicity of the key accounting staff and inadequacies of the previous auditor. The client is therefore considering its options in the circumstances.

Required:

(a) Discuss the challenges encountered in the provision of assurance engagements on e-commerce systems and the approach to address these challenges. (8 Marks)

(b) Evaluate the ethical principles that will be relevant in the conduct of forensic investigation of this client and the considerations the accountant needs to bear in mind in such an assignment. (7 Marks)
