- Uncorrected Misstatements and Performance Materiality. During the conduct of an audit, auditors may identify misstatements as a result of the completion of their substantive procedures. An important activity performed in the completion stages of the audit is considering the materiality of misstatements identified during the audit.Required:a. What is an uncorrected misstatement? What is the auditors’ responsibility for uncorrected misstatements during the completion stage of the audit engagement?b. How do auditors use the rollover method and iron curtain method to evaluate uncorrected misstatements?c. Assume that auditors have identified misstatements during the current audit that had a net impact of $100,000 on expenses and payables (both were understated). If the cumulative effect of prior uncorrected misstatements was $120,000 (overstatement of net income and understatement of liabilities) and materiality was $150,000, what would theauditors’ conclusion be with respect to the…arrow_forwardThe audit report provides reasonable assurance that thefinancial statements are free from material misstatements. The auditorassesses materiality in planning the audit to ensure that sufficientappropriate audit work is performed to detect material misstatements.However, the auditor is in a difficult situation because materiality isdefined from a user’s viewpoint.a. Define materiality as used in accounting and auditing, particularlyemphasizing the differences that exist between the FASB and theU.S. Supreme Court materiality definitions.b. Three major dimensions of materiality are: (1) the dollar magnitudeof the item, (2) the nature of the item under consideration, and(3) the perspective of a particular user. Give an example of each.c. Once the auditor develops an assessment of planning materiality,can it change during the course of the audit? Explain. If it doeschange, what is the implication of a change for audit work thatthe auditor has already completed?arrow_forwardAuditors obtain reasonable assurance that financial statements are fairly stated by performing all of the following except: Evaluating the materiality of misstatements detected. Determining whether internal control can be relied upon to prevent/detect misstatements. Performing substantive tests to detect misstatements. Establishing strong systems of internal control.arrow_forward

In regard to minimizing this risk, the auditor primarily relies on: a. Substantive tests b. Internal control c. Tests of controls d. Statistical analysisarrow_forwardWhich of the following is an incorrect statement? a. The amount of audit work should vary inversely with the likelihood of material misstatements existing in the accounting records. b. The better the organization’s control structure, the less likely it is that material misstatements will be present c. Complex or unusual transactions are more likely to be recorded in error than recurring or routine transactions are d. If misstatements are likely to occur in the recording process, the auditor should develop procedures to detect misstatements.arrow_forward

If an auditor has determined that there is a material misstatement which is potentially due to fraud, what are the steps or actions that the auditor should take at this point?arrow_forwardIf the auditor plans to assess control risk at less than the maximum and rely on controls, and the nature, timing, and extent of further audit procedures are based on that lower assessment, the auditor musta.
