MY
NOTES
Accountants
use
stratified
samples
during
audits
to
verify
a
company's
records
of
such
things
as
accounts
receivable.
The
stratification
is
based
on
the
dollar
amount
of
the
item
and
often
includes
100%
sampling
of
the
largest
items.
One
company
reports
5000
accounts
receivable.
Of
these,
100
are
in
amounts
over
$50,000;
500
are
in
amounts
between
$1000
and
$50,000;
and
the
remaining
4400
are
in
amounts
under
$1000.
Using
these
groups
as
strata,
you
decide
to
verify
all
of
the
largest
accounts
and
to
sample
5%
of
the
midsize
accounts
and
1%
of
the
small
accounts.
Question
1.
How
would
you
label
the
two
strata
from
which
you
will
sample?
¢

m
for
the
midsize
accounts

accounts
Question
2.
Use
this
random
digits
table,
starting
at
line
115,
to
select
only
the
first
5
accounts
from
each
strata.
List
them
below
in
the
order
in
which
they
occur
in
the
table.
Choose
the
midsize
accounts
first.
After
you
choose
the
five
midsize
accounts,
to

The Bizayeva CPA firm is auditing Hagopian, Inc. The company is a manufacturer. It manufactures laptops and ships them to stores. The company had a good year, with (unaudited) $2,500,000 in accounts receivable at year-end. Bizayeva decides to test management’s assertion of the existence of this amount of accounts receivable by using Monetary Unit Sampling. Bizayeva decides, based on last year’s audit, on a 90% confidence level. Bizayeva expects the accounts receivable are misstated by $25,000. Bizayeva decides that a misstatement of as much as $100,000 is tolerable, for accounts receivable to be regarded as materially correct.
