Discuss professional skepticism, benefits of audit planning, audit strategy, and audit stages.

At the weekly meeting of an audit firm, it was reported that a new audit client (Salisa Limited) has just been won. An implementation team has been constituted with a manager as the head. At the meeting of the implementation team, the manager stated that there is a need for the team to work on the audit planning strategy; the contents of which will form the audit planning memorandum that will be presented to the audit committee. He stated further that a professional clearance has to be sent to the former auditor after which, a background check will be performed on the directors and other principal officers of the company. It is also believed that for proper risk assessment, there is a need to understand the business operations of the company. He stated further that the audit will be structured into both interim and final audits.

An experienced member of the team also mentioned the need for the auditor to adopt an attitude of professional skepticism. He emphasized that planning the audit will involve the whole engagement team to establish an understanding of the terms of the engagement as required by ISA 210, which will help establish an overall strategy for the audit. Developing the audit plan will include the nature, timing, and extent of planned risk assessment procedures, further audit procedures, and documentation of the overall audit strategy.

Discuss audit sampling rationale, key decisions, advantages, sampling methods, and auditor actions in sample testing.

wo accountancy students from a University have been asked to write a term paper on “the reasons why external auditors resort to sampling when conducting the audit of a large entity.” The students are of the opinion that they do not understand why this should be the case, if auditors focus on their work.

They believe statistical sampling is not always good for auditing, especially when a population consists of a small number of large items. It may be appropriate to apply audit tests to the entire population as all the items in the population may not share common characteristics. Added to this, they do not agree that samples could be representative of the population and also reflect the characteristics of the population. There is therefore the risk that the auditors may not reach a correct decision as against when the entire population is tested.

Furthermore, they said that they were confused on how the auditors will work on samples in such a way that all items in the population will be given equal chance of being selected and the key decisions that need to be made for effective sample design.

As an ICAN Professional examination candidate who has just finished reading Audit Sampling (ISA 530), you now saw it as an opportunity to recall and explain what you have read. You are excited to explain the above to the students.

Required:

a. Highlight key decisions to be made to influence the sample size. (4 Marks)

b. Outline the advantages and disadvantages of using statistical sampling. (8 Marks)

c. Explain the sample selection methods that will give equal chance to all the items in the population. (3 Marks)

d. Illustrate what the auditors should do when performing procedures on the samples. (5 Marks)

AAA – Nov 2022 – L3 – SB – Q3 – Audit Reporting

Examines joint auditors' roles, options for audit disputes, acquisition processes, and reporting requirements.

During the audit of Kofo Plc in 2018, it was observed that there was an omission of liability to the tune of N2 billion. Upon investigation, it was discovered that the error was as a result of unrecorded liability relating to unremitted statutory taxes to the government in prior years. A compensating error was noticed in unsubstantiated investment and receivables balances schedule provided by the management.

The explanation provided by management for this error was that having noted this disparity, the internal audit team was commissioned to reconcile the ledger balances to establish the actual payment to be made to the government. The result of that exercise led to an initial adjustment of N500 million. However, upon further review by the Internal Audit and Risk Management team, the total disparity noted was N5 billion as opposed to the N2 billion initially noted. The reason being that the report with which the Internal Audit Team carried out the reconciliation was understated. Some liability balances were excluded from the report as a result of the approach used to set up the Information System (I.T) System. Therefore, the general command entered into the system to spool the report did not capture the entire transactions. To gain comfort, the audit team:

(i) Reviewed the reconciliation memo to have an understanding of management’s thought process;
(ii) Requested the updated spool of ledger balances from the I.T system;
(iii) Asked the Information Technology team to perform a walkthrough test of the transaction spool;
(iv) Requested the breakdown of the excluded balances and traced them to the supporting documents to which they relate; and
(v) Checked to see that there were no unusual remittances from the bank statements.

You are a member of the audit team which reviewed Kofo Plc’s compliance with International Standards on Auditing (ISA 250) on Non-Compliance with Laws and Regulations (NOCLAR).

Required:

a. Outline the audit procedures to be performed to help identify instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. (5 Marks)

b. State what the auditor should do when they become aware of an issue of non-compliance with laws and regulations. (5 Marks)

c. State the types of policies and procedures the entity may implement to assist in the prevention and detection of non-compliance with laws and regulations. (4 Marks)

d. Discuss what the auditor should do under the following situations:

  • i. Reporting non-compliance to those charged with governance (2 Marks)

AAA – Nov 2022 – L3 – SB – Q2 – Audit of Complex Entities

Evaluate auditors' responsibilities in fraud detection, financial misreporting, and appropriate audit procedures to mitigate misstatements.

The Financial Controller (FC) of Poki Limited made an observation on the draft engagement letter sent by the external auditors to the company, an extract of which is as stated below:

“The responsibility for safeguarding the assets of the company and for the prevention and detection of fraud, error, and non-compliance with laws or regulations rests with the company’s directors. In accordance with auditing standards, we shall endeavor to plan our audit so that we have a reasonable expectation of detecting material misstatements in the financial statements or accounting records (including any material misstatements resulting from fraud, error, or non-compliance with laws or regulations). However, because any internal control structure, no matter how effective, cannot eliminate the possibility that errors or irregularities may occur and remain undetected and because we use selective testing in our audit, we cannot guarantee that errors or irregularities, if present, will be detected. Accordingly, our audit should not be relied upon to disclose all such material misstatements or frauds, errors, or instances of non-compliance as may exist. The best safeguard against irregularities and fraud is a sound system of internal control.”

The FC accused the auditors of running away from their responsibilities of exposing to the owners of the company fraudulent financial reporting and misappropriation of assets. To him, what is the purpose of audit when fraud and errors could not be discovered? He has threatened to discuss with the Board of Directors and insists that the engagement letter will not be signed until those sections are removed. You are a senior member of the audit team.

Required:

a. Outline the objectives of auditors in relation to fraud. (6 Marks)

b. Explain fraudulent financial reporting and misappropriation of assets. (7 Marks)

c. State the procedures auditors should perform to identify the risks of material misstatement due to fraud. (7 Marks)

Evaluate the justification for joint auditors, present options for audit concerns, and prepare an appropriate report for disputed acquisition.

Mr. Johnson is the Senior Partner of Johnson, Odewole, Thomas & Co., Chartered Accountants. During the last audit of Mandarin Manufacturing Plc, which the firm did with Messrs Ark Professional Services (APS) for the year ended 30 September, 2020, Mr. Johnson expressed displeasure on some of the conclusions reached by APS on certain audit areas. The manager in charge of the audit at Johnson, Odewole, Thomas & Co. had drawn Mr. Johnson’s attention to matters marked “For Partner’s Attention.” Discussions with the corresponding partner of APS on these matters were considered unsatisfactory.

Mr. Johnson’s views differed significantly from those of the corresponding partner of APS. It was agreed to proceed to the board meeting where these disputed positions would be presented and discussed with the directors before a final decision was reached. Of significance is the acquisition of a property from a former staff member for the opening of a new branch warehouse. The acquisition process was hurried and exceeded the capital expenditure provisions for the period. Mr. Johnson’s team viewed the acquisition as a potential fraud on the company, while APS aligned with the director of finance, who considered it a normal transaction.

At the board meeting to discuss the financial statements, members were divided between the two audit firms’ views, leading the chairman to reschedule the meeting. He requested additional information on both parties’ positions and asked them to harmonize their views before the next meeting the following day.

Required:

a. Evaluate the justification or otherwise of an entity having joint auditors. (8 Marks)

b. Following the concerns of Johnson, Odewole, Thomas & Co., present the options available to the firm. (5 Marks)

c. Discuss the points on which the Chairman needs to base his decision, according to standard acquisition procedures. (7 Marks)

d. If the Chairman agrees with the position of Johnson, Odewole, Thomas & Co., determine the reporting requirement and draft an appropriate report for inclusion in the auditors’ report. (6 Marks)

e. Discuss the composition of items that could be marked “For Partner’s Attention” during the conclusion of an audit process. (4 Marks)

Analyze the Chairman's proposals to improve EPS and discuss methods to align stakeholder objectives.

The Chairman of Opeyemi plc, a company listed on the Alternative Investment Market, has circulated a memorandum to the company’s directors and senior managers which contains the following statements:

“Looking to the year ahead, there are a number of measures which I propose to increase the company’s earnings per share (EPS).

Payments to trade creditors should be made as late as possible, even if this means extending our credit beyond the terms allowed by our suppliers. The company currently runs a substantial overdraft, and this measure will cut the level of bank interest and charges.

Relatively high capital expenditure in recent years has resulted in substantial depreciation charges in the profit or loss account. All capital spending, including that on the Oloro II project – designed to reduce toxic emissions from the manufacturing plant – should be postponed except where such spending can be shown to be essential to current operations.

Staff pay should be frozen at this year’s level for the forthcoming year. The company’s sponsorship of the local charity events run by the Staff Social Club should also, regrettably, be ended.

By boosting profits and therefore EPS, these measures will help us to achieve the highest possible stock market capitalisation.”

Required:

a. Prepare a response to the Chairman’s proposals which examines the possible consequences of the proposals for the price of the company’s shares and for the company’s stakeholders. (9 Marks)

b. Discuss FOUR ways that encourage managers to achieve stakeholder objectives. (6 Marks)
