Description
Description:
This course details the many questions connected with auditing. It provides guidance to auditors in rendering services to their varied clients with a practical “how-to” audit approach. It incorporates and reflects up-to-date guidance from the PCAOB (public companies audits), the AICPA (nonpublic entity audits), and the GAO (Yellow Book audits). For example, it focuses on the principles of independence, audit risk, fraud risk factors, and audit documentation that will establish a foundation for the credibility of an auditors’ work. It also includes requirements and considerations related to performing an integrated audit. It highlights the key procedures that require external auditors to attest to management’s disclosures regarding the effectiveness of its internal control, such as the use of top-down approach, the test of controls, and evaluation and communication of deficiencies.
