Students have asked these similar questions
Which 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.
C) The auditor's evaluation of the most likely misstatements in the sample reflects the sum of the misstatements from the top-stratum and the projected misstatement derived from the each lower-stratum items
D) None of the above
Which one of the sentences below is FALSE?
A.
The risk of incorrect acceptance called beta risk has the consequence that the auditor may assume that the population is free of material misstatement.
B.
The risk of incorrect rejection is called alpha risk and has the consequence that the auditor may assume on the basis of sample results that a population is materially misstated when, in fact, it is not .
C.
The risk of incorrect acceptance is called beta risk.
D.
The risk of incorrect rejection very common in audit sampling is called beta risk.
Which of the following is an advantage of nonstatistical sampling?a. It measures the audit team’s exposure to sampling risk.b. It is required by generally accepted auditing standards.c. It ensures that samples are randomly selected.d. It is typically less complex than statistical sampling
