Chapter 5, Problem 45LOQ

A difference of opinion concerning accounting and auditing matters relative to a particular phase of the audit arises between an assistant auditor and the auditor responsible for the engagement. After appropriate consultation, the assistant auditor asks to be disassociated from the resolution of the matter. The working papers would probably:

  1. (1) Remain silent on the matter since it is an internal matter of the auditing firm.
  2. (2) Note that the assistant auditor is completely dissociated from responsibility for the auditors’ opinion.
  3. (3) Document the additional work required because all disagreements of this type will require expanded substantive procedures.
  4. (4) Document the assistant auditor’s position and how the difference of opinion was resolved.
