Download or read book Statement on Auditing Standards Number 128 written by AICPA and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2016-11-21 with total page 60 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As a result of its Clarity Project, the Auditing Standards Board (ASB) has issued Statement on Auditing Standards (SAS) No. 128, Using the Work of Internal Auditors, to supersede SAS No. 65, The Auditor's Consideration of the Internal Audit Function in an Audit of Financial Statements (AICPA, Professional Standards, AU sec. 322 and AU-C sec. 610), and amend: SAS No. 122, Statements on Auditing Standards: Clarification and Recodification, section 315, Understanding the Entity and Its Environment and Assessing the Risks of Material Misstatement (AICPA, Professional Standards, AU-C sec. 315); Various other sections in SAS No. 122 (AICPA, Professional Standards, AU-C secs. 200, 220, 230, 240, 260, 265, 300, 402, 500, 550, and 600); and Statement on Quality Control Standards No. 8, A Firm’s System of Quality Control (Redrafted) (AICPA, Professional Standards, QC sec. 10). SAS No. 128 addresses the external auditor’s responsibilities when using the work of internal auditors if it includes (a) using the work of the internal audit function in obtaining audit evidence and (b) using internal auditors to provide direct assistance under the direction, supervision, and review of the external auditor. Consistent with International Standard on Auditing (ISA) 610 (Revised 2013), SAS No. 128 introduces the concept of a systematic and disciplined approach, which is not included in SAS No. 65. Paragraph 13 of SAS No. 128 would require, among other things, as a prerequisite to being able to use the work of the internal audit function, that the external auditor evaluate the application by the internal audit function of a systematic and disciplined approach, including quality control. Paragraphs A12–A14 of SAS No. 128 provide application guidance with regard to the application of a systematic and disciplined approach. The ASB believes that relative to SAS No. 65, this requirement represents an additional and explicit evaluation that the external auditor would need to perform to conclude on the appropriateness of using the work of internal auditors.

Government auditing provides the objective analysis and information needed to make the decisions necessary to help create a better future.

These standards, commonly referred to as generally accepted government auditing standards (GAGAS), provide the foundation for government auditors to lead by example in the areas of independence, transparency, accountability, and quality through the audit process. This revision contains major changes from, and supersedes, the 2011 revision.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cutting Edge Internal Auditing provides guidance and knowledge for every internal auditor, encouraging each to pioneer new ground in the development of their professional practices in all risk management, control and governance processes. Serving as an excellent reference guide that develops a pattern of internal auditing now and for the future, this book explores the concept of 'cutting edge' internal auditing as an imaginative adventure: demonstrating how this has influenced and will continue to influence the development of professionalism in internal auditing. Built on the foundations of Jeffrey Ridley's extensive internal auditing experience across the public and private sectors, the author uses his articles and research to explore and develop the motivations, goals and categories of innovation in internal auditing today. It develops and brings up to date an imaginative internal auditing model, created and used by the author in the early 1980s, drawing on research and guidance by The Institute of Internal Auditors Inc., its Research Foundation and the Institute of Internal Auditors - UK and Ireland. Each chapter stands alone by focusing on an individual internal auditing theme, considered from both the perspective of internal auditing and its customers to suggest an appropriate vision as a goal for every internal audit activity. Each chapter also includes self-assessment questions to challenge the readers understanding of its messages. Companion website contains some of the author's training slides and seventy case studies, many written by leading internal audit practitioners, this book creates a vision for future cutting edge internal auditing.

Download or read book International Auditing Standards in the United States written by Asokan Anandarajan and published by . This book was released on 2014-12-19 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Annotation International Standards on Auditing (ISA) are standards or guidelines that auditors follow when conducting a financial audit of a companys financial statements in those jurisdictions that have adopted ISAs or some version of ISAs. These standards are issued by the International Federation of Accountants (IFAC) through the International Auditing and Assurance Standards Board (IAASB). ISA covers a wide variety of ground. It designates specific responsibilities of an auditor including how to plan an audit; how to evaluate and conclude on the adequacies of internal controls; how to evaluate audit evidence and draw conclusions from it and how to write an audit report. These are just some of the designated responsibilities among a wide range of auditing requirements. The USA, on the other hand, has its own auditing standards: the so-called Generally Accepted Auditing Standards (GAAS) set forth by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants for use in private company audits; and the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (PCAOB), standards which apply to the audits of publicly-owned corporations. The problem for both practitioners and students is that the auditing principles of the ISA and the AICPA are not identical, even though they are moving towards convergence, or at least attempting to do so. That said, the standards of the ISA and AICPA still differ; and this problem is compounded because of the significant differences between the standards of ISA and PCAOB. In fact a study commissioned by the European Community found at least five areas where there are substantial differences. The areas of substantive differences relate to: * Assessing and reporting on internal control * Reference to the work of another auditor in a group audit * Documentation requirements * Risk assessment and responses to assessed risks. This is probably one of the most significant differences. * Going concern reporting. Under the PCAOB the foreseeable future is limited to 12 months but under the ISA the look forward feature has a different definition. Books have been written on both the PCAOB and ISAs standards. In this proposed book we plan to focus on the differences between the PCAOB and ISA standards. We will cover in a clear and concise way the important differences and similarities between them and provide check lists of dos and donts. This should be of importance to upper level undergraduate students of auditing and auditors in the US and internationally.
