Statements of Position
Consistent with the original proposal issued in September 2005, the proposed interpretation states that independence would not be impaired if a member and the client agree that the unsuccessful party in a lawsuit or alternative dispute resolution (ADR) proceeding between them will pay the legal fees and expenses of the successful party. The proposed interpretation retains the conclusion that an indemnification or limitation of liability provision related to nonattest services performed for an attest client (that is, where the provision relates only to the nonattest services engagement and not the attest engagement) would not impair a member’s independence with respect …

This limitation is considered in another proposed Statement entitled "The Independent Auditor's Responsibility for the Detection of Errors and Irregularities" also issued for comment today. The proposed Statement does specify that the auditor should be aware of the possibility that illegal acts may have occurred that may have a material effect on the financial statements. It further requires that should an auditor become …

Proposed Statement On Responsibilities In Tax Practice, Entitled : Use Of Estimates;Use Of Estimates; Exposure Draft (American Institute Of Certified Public Accountants), 1968, Jan. 17, American Institute Of Certified Public Accountants. Committee On Federal Taxation
Statements of Position
This Statement considers the responsibility of a certified public accountant in connection with the use of estimates in the preparation of a Federal tax return which he signs as preparer. A certified public accountant may prepare tax returns involving the use of estimates if either such use is generally acceptable or, under the circumstances, it is impracticable to obtain adequate actual data. When estimates are used, they should be presented in such a manner as to avoid the implication of greater accuracy than exists. The CPA should satisfy himself that estimated amounts are reasonable under the circumstances.
