24 Aug Audit Planning and Control

Week 8 Assignment 2 – Audit Planning and Control

Overview

It is common industry knowledge that an audit plan provides the specific guidelines auditors must follow when conducting an external audit. External public accounting firms conduct external audits to ensure outside stakeholders that the company’s financial statements are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) or International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). 

Use the Internet to select a public company that appeals to you. You may also use the company dossier in the Nexis Uni database to find company information.

Imagine that you are a senior partner in a public accounting firm hired to complete an audit for the chosen public company.

Instructions

1. Outline the critical steps inherent in planning an audit and designing an effective audit program. Based on the type of company selected, provide specific details of the actions that the company should undertake during the planning and designing of the audit program.

2. Examine at least two performance ratios that you would use in order to determine which analytical tests to perform. Identify the accounts that you would test, and select at least three analytical procedures that you would use in your audit.
