Explainyour reasoning.3 a. Joy, CGA, audits the financial statements of Natural Foods Ltd., which operates 2 large retail stores.The company is owned and managed by 2 brothers who are pioneers in the growth and developmentof the natural foods industry. In addition to the audit, Joy prepares the corporate tax return and thepersonal tax returns of the owners. She has also advised them in developing a computerized perpetualinventory and order processing system that is linked up with the IT systems of their major suppliers.The brothers have great confidence in Joy’s work and often recommend her to their businessassociates. As a result, Joy charges a very low fee of $15,000 for her annual audits of Natural Foods’financial statements.3 b. Stan, CGA, a partner in the firm of Ostrow and Jacobs, CGAs, is planning the audit of the financialstatements of his long-time client, Ledger and Quill Ltd., a wholesaler of office supplies. Because thecompany’s operations are simple and very stable, Stan skips the analysis of the unaudited financialstatements this year to save time. In addition, he instructs the audit senior to use a planning materialitylevel of $50,000, which is about 10% of the company’s unaudited net income. Finally, Stan tells thesenior not to study and evaluate the client’s internal controls, since these have not changed in manyyears, but rather to assess the risk of material misstatement for most assertions as low, unless thesenior encounters specific problems during the audit that would lead to a higher risk assessment.3 c. Chiu, CGA, is auditing the financial statements of Fantastic Jewellers Ltd. This is Chiu’s first audit ofthe company’s financial statements. To verify the client’s ending inventories of unset gemstones, Chiurelies upon a report given to him by the client, prepared by a certified gemologist employed by thecompany. The report is a detailed list of all the items on hand, including a description of each stone,the date of purchase and the cost, along with an estimate of each stone’s market value. Chiu checksthe clerical accuracy of the list and physically inspects 25 of 250 gemstones on the list using hisprofessional judgment, and traces their cost to paid invoices. He encounters no exceptions andconcludes that the inventory of gemstones is fairly stated.3 d. George, CGA, is performing a review of the financial statements of a medium-sized manufacturingcompany for which he has not previously performed any assurance services. His review proceduresconsist of a discussion with management concerning the nature and operations of the business and itsindustry, along with a ratio analysis of the financial statements prepared by the client. In that analysis,George compares the client’s key ratios of the balance sheet and income statement for the current yearto those of the previous year, where the previous year’s ratios are also derived from client-preparedfinancial statements with which no professional accountant was associated. George notes a fewsignificant differences between ratios for the 2 years. Management provides explanations for thedifferences that George considers to be reasonable. George then issues a normal review engagementreport, without modification or reservation.3 e. Sharon, CGA, is compiling financial statements for her client, a retail clothing store, based on recordsand other information prepared by the owner. Among other things, the owner provides Sharon with alist of clothing on hand at the balance sheet date along with the cost of those items. While Sharon doesnot attempt to verify the merchandise on the list, it appears to her that the number of listed items ismuch more than the store normally carries. She asks the owner about this possible discrepancy and theowner says that she needs to send the financial statements to the bank as a condition of her banks loanand “wants things to look good.” While Sharon is somewhat concerned by this comment, she preparesthe financial statements on plain white paper and gives them to the owner, along with her invoice for$1,000. She also tells the owner not to mention to the bank that she (Sharon) was involved with thefinancial statements in any manner. The owner agrees to this arrangement, and promptly paysSharon’s invoice.14 Question3The following are 7 independent statements concerning certain auditing issues.RequiredFor each statement indicate whether you agree or disagree. Explain your reasoning.2 a. The potential conflict of interest between shareholders and management, the remoteness ofinformation sources from financial statement users, and the possibility of employee fraud are allsources of information risk that would be reduced by an audit of financial statements in accordancewith generally accepted auditing standards.2 b. The smoothing of earnings through the recording by management of abnormally large or smallaccruals is allowed by generally accepted accounting principles and would not be considered amaterial misstatement by an auditor.2 c. When using the audit risk model, control risk can be set equal to 1, but should never be set equal tozero. This is true since complete assurance from controls is never possible because the design ofcontrol systems is subject to cost/benefit considerations and there are inherent limitations to everycontrol system.2 d. General internal controls in a computerized environment include controls over network operations,access security, and various types of preventative controls (such as edit checks) that are designed toprevent data entry or processing errors.2 e. When identified misstatements from a sampling-based substantive audit test exceed materiality, theauditor must issue a qualified (GAAP) or adverse opinion unless the client corrects the identifiedmisstatements, in which case the auditor can issue an unqualified opinion.2 f. The possibility of dual-dating of an auditor’s report arises under certain circumstances when there isan accidental discovery of material facts that existed at the balance sheet date, but the discovery is notmade until after an audit report has been issued.2g. In a discovery sampling plan, which is a form of attribute sampling, the risk of unwarranted reliance on internal controls is normally set at a low value, the expected error rate is set at a high value, and thetolerable error rate is set at or near zero.Liu, CGA, is examining the loans receivable of E-Z Credit Union, a local financial institution, as part of her annual audit of the organization’s financial statements. The credit union is a major lender in thecommunity, and about one-half of its outstanding loans are to local businesses, while the remainder are mostly mortgage loans and secured lines of credit issued to personal borrowers. Based on Liu’s auditexaminations in prior years as well as her assessment of inherent risk and her study and evaluation ofinternal controls this year, Liu believes that the credit union is well managed and that the risk of material misstatements with respect to the existence, completeness, and valuation of the loans receivable ismoderate to low.Based on the financial statements prepared by the controller, the credit union has total assets of$150,000,000 at the balance sheet date and revenues of $10,000,000 for the year. The loans receivable at the balance sheet date total $90,000,000 owed by 500 borrowers. The loans receivable records aremaintained using a computerized system, and Liu has obtained a copy of the loans receivable master file from the client at the balance sheet date. Liu also has a generalized audit software system available for use in the audit.To test loans receivable, Liu decides to use a 2-stage sampling plan, where she will first sort the loansreceivable file by the total dollar amount outstanding at the balance sheet date. She will then send positive confirmation requests to the 10 largest borrower accounts. The remaining 490 loans will be tested using a dollar-unit sampling (DUS) plan. Liu decides to use 1% of the client’s recorded total assets, or $1,500,000, as her materiality threshold. However, she is unsure about the appropriate values to use for the estimated error amount (EE) and acceptable risk of incorrect acceptance (ARIA). Based on her professionaljudgment, she assesses EE at 0 (since she believes that few, if any, errors are likely to be found) and ARIA at 20%. Having determined the required sample size, Liu will select a DUS sample, send positiveconfirmations to the borrowers in the sample, and then evaluate her sampling results as well as the results of her tests of the largest loan balances.Required3 a. Without regard to the details of the case, briefly explain the nature of generalized audit software(GAS) and its potential uses in an audit engagement. Also indicate a major advantage of using GAS inan audit.6 b. Evaluate Liu’s plan for auditing the credit union’s loans receivable, and explain whether the plan islikely to yield sufficient appropriate evidence with respect to the existence, completeness, andvaluation of the client’s loans receivable.3 c. Since Liu is unsure about the appropriate parameter values to use in her DUS plan, explain whatimpact (if any) each of the following changes would have on the DUS sample size:•Increasing EE from $0 to $100,000•Increasing ARIA from 20% to 25%•Increasing materiality from 1% of assets to 2% of assets3 d. Suppose Liu performs her tests as described above and finds no errors in her audit of the 490 accountsusing DUS, but receives one confirmation from her audit of the 10 largest accounts concerning a loanbalance of $1,500,000 that states: “I am unable to comply with your confirmation request, as I havefiled for personal bankruptcy. All enquires about this loan should be made through my lawyers,Lord & King.” Briefly explain what Liu should do.You are a partner in the firm of Arnold Schorn & Co., Certified General Accountants. You are responsible for conducting the final, independent review of audits completed by the firm, as part of your firm’s newly instituted quality control program. Prior to this year, the firm did not utilize the services of an independent review partner, but engagement partners were expected to consult with their colleagues on critical issues encountered in performing audits of financial statements. Arnold Schorn & Co. performs mostly accounting and tax work, but also has a few small business clients for which it performs audits of financial statements.You are currently reviewing the audit working papers and a draft of the audited financial statements of Olmen Jamar Construction Ltd. for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2007, along with the suggested auditor’s report (an unqualified opinion) prepared by the engagement partner. The company fabricates and installs metal ductwork used in ventilation and heating systems in homes and office buildings.The company is controlled by a small group of related shareholders, some of whom are active in the business. The company has been an audit client of your firm for 5 years. The audit fieldwork, which took about 4 weeks, was performed by a senior auditor assisted by two junior auditors, and the working papers were reviewed by the engagement partner. The audited financial statements show total assets at year end of $40,000,000, contract revenues of $15,000,000, and income before taxes of $2,000,000.Based on your independent review of the working papers (including various memoranda and review notes prepared by the staff and engagement partner) and the proposed financial statements and audit opinion, you have noted the following issues that arose during the audit, along with the manner in which they were resolved:1. While testing the executive payroll records of the company, one of the junior auditors noticed that thecompany’s controller, Frank Hughes, who is not a shareholder, received a salary plus bonus payments of $400,000 this year. This was more than was paid to any other executive of the company, including the chief executive officer (CEO). The junior mentioned the issue to the audit senior, who asked Frank Hughes why he was being paid so well. Frank hesitated, and then explained that part of his duties was to pay bribes — but only when absolutely necessary — to municipal building inspectors, to make sure that the inspectors accepted the company’s work and certified the completion of a job.Frank went on to say: “This one of the sad facts of life in this city and in this business. I convert some of my salary to cash and make these payments. But we report my total salary properly to Canada Revenue Agency — so there should be no problem.” The senior made a note of this explanation in the payroll working papers with a note saying “this is not an audit issue since salaries and taxes arerecorded properly.” The engagement partner wrote: “I agree” and initialled the working paper.2. The company normally recognizes all revenues on a completed contract basis. However, this year thecompany was involved in a large job installing a ventilation system in a downtown office building and the work was about 50% completed at June 30, 2007. The total contract amount is $4,000,000 and the company decided to recognize $2,000,000 of revenues on this contract in the fiscal year ended June 30, 2007. The costs incurred on the contract as of June 30, 2007 totalled $1,700,000. The engagement partner agreed with the accounting treatment and wrote a memorandum for the working papers that explained the transaction and concluded: “This is likely to be a one-time event, so financial statement disclosure is not necessary.”3. Because of the nature of the construction business, payroll expenses are a major cost. The juniorauditors studied the company’s payroll processing systems, completed an internal controlquestionnaire for payrolls, and verified the details of 30 payroll transactions during March 2007. Noexceptions were found in this test. The only weakness noted was that the company often hires “casuallabourers” to work on certain jobs and pays these labourers in cash. The supervisor on every job hascontrol over a petty cash fund (usually $5,000) designated for that purpose and is authorized bymanagement to make such payments. The supervisor submits a list of labourers and amounts paid as“casual labour” to the head office at the end of each week and receives reimbursement. When a job iscompleted, the supervisor returns any excess cash to the company and the fund is closed out on thebooks. According to the company’s records, about 5% of payroll expenses of $8,000,000 werehandled in this manner during the fiscal year. Based on studies of the client’s system, the audit staffconcluded that control risk over payroll transactions was low, except in the area of casual labour,where they assessed the risk as maximum. In addition, the senior wrote a note on the payroll workingpaper saying: “While controls over payments to casual labourers are poor, there is no effect on thefinancial statements. However, we should discuss this control weakness in our management letter.”4. The company’s assets at June 30, 2007 include a $2,000,000 loan receivable from one of thecontrolling shareholders who is facing personal financial difficulties. This loan was made in May 2007and was authorized by the company’s board of directors. The loan is due and payable in May 2008and bears interest at the prevailing prime rate. The loan is shown on the June 30, 2007 balance sheet as“loans receivable from shareholders” and is classified as a current asset, as is the accrued interest onthe loan, which was unpaid at the date of completion of the fieldwork. The financial statementscontain no other disclosure related to the loan.5. The engagement partner is a close friend and brother-in-law of the client’s CEO. They live in the samecommunity, belong to the same country club, and frequently dine together to discuss politics,business, and other issues. The CEO often consults with the engagement partner on operating mattersand ways to improve profitability of the company. Because of this close relationship, several years agothe engagement partner wrote a memorandum for the permanent files fully describing the situationand assuring his partners that the audit is always conducted with professional skepticism and to thehighest ethical and professional standards.6. When planning the audit, the engagement partner used an audit risk level of 10%. He explained thisdecision in the working papers saying: “This is a small business that has always been profitable. Weknow the management staff and they are of the highest integrity. Also, the firm is largely financedwith equity capital and has little debt. Accordingly, our business risk related to this engagement isvery low.”After thinking about these various issues, you decide to write a memo to the engagement partner, with acopy to the managing partner of the firm, expressing your views on these matters and what needs to bedone before you are prepared to “sign off” on the engagement.Required20Write the memo that you will send to the engagement partner (with a copy to the firm’s managing partner).Note:Limit your memo to about 1,000 words.6 6 marks are allocated for clarity, logic, impact, and persuasiveness.END OF EXAMINATION 100AUDITING 2 [AU2]EXAMINATIONBefore starting to write the examination, make sure that it is complete and that there are no printing defects.
