Only Statement 1 is correct O C. Both statements are incorrect D. Both statements are correct

Non-statistical sampling is commonly used in audit practice. Describe each of the four items required in a non-statistical audit test. Discuss the reasons why you would use, or not use, this type of testing for account transactions whose values range from very material to immaterial amounts. Describe why you believe non-statistical sampling is best for material vs immaterial amount testing, or vice versa.
Risk of incorrect rejection is defined as _______. the risk that the auditor concludes that a material misstatement does not exist when it does exist the risk that the auditor concludes that a material misstatement exists when it does not exist the risk that an auditor incorrectly rejects a client the risk that management may reject the audit opinion issued by the auditor An advantage of statistical sampling _______. is that it allows an auditor to measure control risk is that it allows an auditor to measure sampling risk is that it allows an auditor to measure inherent risk is that it is cheaper to perform, resulting in lower audit fees for the client
