- 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 clientarrow_forwardWhich of the following statements is false? A) Top-stratum items are population items whose book value likely exceed the Sampling Interval and would be all selected for examination and evaluation during the audit. B) Because the auditor knows the full amount of errors in the top stratum (since all items are evaluated), no estimate of errors or projection to the population for the errors in the top stratum is required.
