AA – Nov 2022 – L2 – Q6 – Audit Opinion in Financial Statements

Describe contents of audit opinion in financial statements as presented to an audit committee.

When prompted on a question at the presentation meeting to the audit committee of AMIRAH Plc, the Partner of OIO professional services stated that the end result of the statutory audit is general purpose financial statements on which audit opinion will be expressed. He explained that the auditor shall express an unmodified opinion when the auditor concludes his work, based on the audit
evidence obtained, that the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement and that the financial statements are prepared, in all
material respects, in accordance with the applicable financial reporting framework. However, if the external auditor is unable to obtain sufficient and appropriate audit evidence to conclude that the financial statements as a whole
are free from material misstatement, the auditor shall modify the opinion in the auditor’s report. In summary, the auditor’s opinion is a certification that accompanies financial statements after the examination of the books of accounts.
You are the manager in the firm and a member of the audit committee has requested for more explanation on the presentation by the partner.
Required:
