You have been asked to test the effectiveness of Ingo Corporation's control of manually approving all purchases over $25,000. During the year, Ingo Corporation has made 1,000,000 purchases, of which 3,000 were over $25,000. Jian Zhang, CPA, your supervisor, asked you to use a tolerable deviation rate of 5 percent (although she expects the rate to be only approximately 0.50 percent) and a 5 percent risk of assessing control risk too low. Use the following to determine the planned assessed level of control risk and the assessed level of control risk. (Planned) Assessed Level of Control Risk Low Moderate Slightly below the maximum Maximum a. What is the planned assessed level of control risk? O Low Moderate Slightly below the maximum Maximum Tolerable Deviation Rate 2-7% 6-12% 11-20% Over 20% b. Determine the appropriate sample size and allowable number of deviations using Figure 9.4.

AB Ltd has a petty cash account that is set at $8,400. In month 1 the month end replenishment is for 20% of the fund. In month 2 the month end replenishment is for 25% of the fund and in month 3 the fund size is increased by $3,800 and the replenishment is for 22% of the fund level. Required: How much is the highest monthly expense from replenishment? $
Assume that your audit assistants also performed tests of controls on a sample of 200 purchases. During the tests they found that 16 purchases did not comply with the control procedures as laid down. This gave a sample deviation rate of 8%. After performing the tests, the audit assistant noted the following conclusion: The deviation rate of 8% is below the quantitative materiality level of 10% as outlined in the accounting standards. Therefore, controls over purchases can be relied on'. Critically evaluate the appropriateness of the assistant's evaluation of sampling results relating to the tests of controls on purchases.
Sample Selection. Hunter McNeal is studying and evaluating Branyon’s internal controlsrelated to the mathematical verification of sales invoices. In this verification, Branyon’s control activities require that employees perform the following procedures:∙ Verify that sales invoices are prepared only for items actually shipped to customers. Thisactivity is evidenced by requiring employees to place a checkmark next to quantities onthe sales invoices.∙ Verify that prices charged to customers are from approved price lists. This activityis evidenced by requiring employees to place a checkmark next to prices on the salesinvoice.∙ Verify that extensions and footings on invoices are mathematically accurate. This activityis evidenced by requiring employees to initial the bottom of the invoice in a sectionmarked “Mathematically verified by.”To verify the operating effectiveness of these activities, McNeal established an expectedpopulation deviation rate of 3 percent, a tolerable rate of deviation…

Consider the following independent situations, all of which apply to audits of entities for the year ending 30 June 20X8: (i) BWC Limited sells high-end women’s fashion in a highly competitive market. Whilst other similar-sized competitors have recently gone into liquidation, BWC has managed to secure an undisclosed emergency loan from a high-wealth individual, who is close relative of the Chairman of the Board. These funds will be used to implement a new automated inventory management system, which will lead to major staff reductions across the board, particularly in areas the company considers non-essential, such as security management and back to-base alarm systems. (ii) Smartel Pty. Ltd is a new start-up company that has developed an innovative phone application to help students revise for exams. The patent is still pending. The prototype was so successful that a large private equity firm invested $ 50 million in exchange for 40% equity. The current CEO of Smartel Pty. Ltd was…
The auditor of Tent manufacturing Ltd has decided to use systematic selection of cash payments when testing the control that cheque payments are supported by a supplier’s invoice, a purchase requisition and a goods received note. Each cheque comprises a sampling unit. There are 4000 cheques drawn (numbered 1–4000) and the total amount of cash payments is $12 million. The sample size is 25 and the random start is 205. Given this information, the second item selected will be item no:Select one:a. Cheque number 2415.b. Cheque number 160.c. Cheque number 365.d. Some other item number.
