Exposure Drafts, Comment Letters, and Statements of Position

The Auditing Standards Board is considering the issuance of this proposed Statement to provide practitioners with expanded guidance when considering work performed by internal auditors. Internal auditors are responsible for providing analyses, evaluations, assurances, recommendations, and other information to the entity's management and board of directors or others with equivalent authority and responsibility. Many of these activities are relevant to the audit because they provide evidence about the design and effectiveness of internal control structure policies and procedures or direct evidence about misstatements of financial data contained in financial statements. This proposed Statement contains factors to assist auditors in considering …

This Statement provides guidance in identifying and reporting conditions that relate to an entity's internal control structure observed during an audit of financial statements.

For the purpose of this Statement, the term audit committee is used to refer to he appropriate …

Exposure Drafts, Comment Letters, and Statements of Position

Management, audit committees, and others repsonsible for internal control in an entity have indicated that they have difficulty understanding the auditor's report on material weaknesses in internal control identified in a financial statement audit. These users, and many auditors, also have indicated that the concept of a material weakness in internal control is ambiguous and, therefore, difficult to apply in practice. They also believe that because the concept relates only to material misstatements of financial statements, some significant internal control deficiencies may not be reported. This proposed statement on auditing statnadards would clarify report language and replace the concept of …

Exposure Drafts, Comment Letters, and Statements of Position

This proposed statement on auditing standards responds to public expectations of auditors to assume more responsibility for detecting fraudulent financial reporting by requiring the use of analytical procedures in all audit engagements. Analytical procedures can be effective in identifying financial misstatements and alerting the auditor to the possiblity of certain types of material irregularity.

This Statement was issued: (1) To emphasize the importance of internal control to audit planning by broadening the auditor's responsibility to study and evaluate internal control when planning an audit; (2) To clarify and bring up to date the guidance on the auditor's study and evaluation of internal control by incorporating the concepts concerning audit evidence and audit risk that have evolved in practice and that have been established in auditing standards issued subsequent to the issuance of AU section 320, The Auditor's Study and Evaluation of Internal Control (AICPA Professional Standards, Vol. 1).

Investigating Expertise In Auditing, Paul E. Johnson, Andrew D. Bailey Jr, Rayman D. Meservy Oct 1986

Investigating Expertise In Auditing, Paul E. Johnson, Andrew D. Bailey Jr, Rayman D. Meservy

Faculty Publications

Research on human expertise in auditing contexts is an important area of study. Our objective in this paper is to present an approach to conducting research on human expertise. We begin with some issues of terminology and then propose a strategy for inquiry into the phenomena of expertise. Finally, we attempt to illustrate this strategy with three examples of recently completed work. The examples include: two from the auditing literature that involve the analysis of internal control and a medical diagnosis case which illustrates the "garden path" problem that is of concern in any decision making context, including auditing.

Internal Control Evaluation: A Computational Model Of The Review Process, Rayman D. Meservy, Andrew D. Bailey Jr, Paul E. Johnson

Faculty Publications

This study investigated the strategies by which experienced auditors evaluate systems of internal accounting controls. The research method included: (1) observations, using concurrent protocols, of a small sample of practicing auditors performing the internal control evaluation task; (2) extensive interviews with one of the practicing auditors; (3) formalization of auditor processes as a computational model; and (4) validation of the model. The simulation model was Im· plemented as an expert system and tuned to one auditor. The model output consists of a trace of the model processing including: (1) rec• ommendatlons for specific controls to be compliance tested; and (2) …
