The proposed Statement would supersede SAS No. 1, section 430 "Adequacy of Informative Disclosure." The proposed Statement does not modify the basic concepts of section 430. However, section 430 is being replaced to eliminate guidance that is no longer applicable and to achieve consistency with subsequent authoritative pronouncements, such as SAS Nos. 12 and 17 and FASB Statement No. 5. Also, the proposed Statement provides additional guidance on the meaning of "practicable" in the disclosure context.

The Statement includes guidance for planning, performing, and evaluating the two general approaches to audit sampling: nonstatistical and statistical. The proposed SAS recognizes that the auditor often is aware of information that allows him to concentrate his effort on account balances and transactions that may be more likely to contain errors or irregularities. The guidance in this proposed SAS should be especially helpful to the auditor who is planning procedures to test balances and transactions about which the auditor has no special knowledge.
