...CHAPTER 3 Auditors’ Ethical and Legal Responsibilities SOLUTIONS FOR REVIEW CHECKPOINTS 3.1 This arises from the three party accountability discussed in chapter 1. The auditor is hired because users expect there may be such a conflict. If users completely trusted management there would be no need to have an auditor. This is the only way to detect fraudulent or misleading reporting. The logic is to reduce this potential to an acceptable level of risk. If the auditor assumed this risk was zero to start with the auditor would not need to provide evidence that the possibility is low, and that contradicts the reason users demand an audit. 3-2 No, the auditor cannot detect deception without being skeptical. A non-skeptical auditor on finding evidence of fraud may not treat it with the significance it deserves. The rule that suspicious transactions or evidence of management deceit should automatically be considered material, even when the absolute amounts involved may be very small or insignificant, is an example of skeptical logic in action. Since three party accountability implies some degree of mistrust of management by users, the auditor must incorporate skepticism in his or her reasoning process when management makes assertions about the financial statements it has prepared. 3-3 A professional accountant must be prepared to be agent, spectator, advisor, instructor, judge, critic. 3-4 Apparently, in ethical philosophy, the word "conscience" is used...

...20 Solutions Manual for Taxation for Decision Makers Solutions to Chapter 2 Problem Assignments Check Your Understanding 1. Tax Planning vs. Compliance Distinguish tax planning from tax compliance. Solution: Tax compliance involves the gathering of relevant information, evaluating and classifying that information, filing tax returns, and representing clients at Internal Revenue Service audits. Tax planning is the process of evaluating the tax consequences associated with a transaction and making recommendations to achieve the desired objective at minimal tax cost. It generally involves extensive tax research. 2. Tax vs. Nontax Factors For each of the following independent situations, identify whether the item would be primarily a tax or a nontax factor in performing tax planning. a. The taxpayer lost a quarter of her net worth when the dot-com bubble burst and does not want to own any investments with risk such as stock. b. The taxpayer hates to pay any federal income taxes and would rather pay an equal amount of money to an accountant or attorney than pay taxes to the federal government. c. The taxpayer has a large capital loss carryforward from last year. Solution: a. This is primarily a nontax factor situation. The taxpayer has specified that he or she is risk averse, a personal choice, due to having experienced prior losses. b. The taxpayer’s dislike of paying taxes is really a nontax factor; this dislike, however, leads him to seek income tax advice to reduce taxes and...

...CHAPTER 2 OVERVIEW OF AUDITING I. Review Questions 1. One definition of auditing is that it is a systematic process by which a competent, independent person objectively obtains and evaluates evidence regarding assertions about economic actions and events to ascertain the degree of correspondence between those assertions and established criteria and communicating the results to interested users. The Philippine Standards on Auditing (PSA) 120 “Framework of Philippine Standards on Auditing” states the objective of an audit as follows: “The objective of an audit of financial statements is to enable the auditor to express an opinion whether the financial statements are prepared in all material respects, in accordance with an identified financial reporting framework.” 2. This apparent paradox arises from the distinction between the function of auditing and the function of accounting. The accounting function is the process of recording, classifying and summarizing economic events to provide relevant information to decision makers. The rules of accounting are the criteria used by the auditor for evaluating the presentation of economic events for financial statements and he or she must therefore have an understanding of generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), as well as generally accepted auditing standards (GAAS). The accountant need not, and frequently does not, understand what auditors do, unless he or she is involved in doing audits, or has been trained...

...OBJECTIVES, DESCRIPTION, TOPICS, AND ASSIGNMENTS ACCT-5600 DR. NICOLAOU Fall 2010 COURSE STRUCTURE In the modern world, the majority of accounting entries occur electronically. Accountants and auditors store information in databases, managed by enterprise systems that have a set of controls to ensure that transactions and record keeping happen as expected. E-business Web sites handle transactions automatically, with the accounting data going directly into the necessary databases. The concept of a paper trail has become a bit of a misnomer; today, because of accounting information systems, there is often no paper involved at all; however, it is important to establish the flow the data in different areas of the organization, or audit trail, so as to properly exercise internal controls. AISs help in this purpose. At the outset of this course, you will learn the basics of accounting information systems and business processes. Next, you will learn about database management systems, and the design of various database models. Finally, you will learn about how to use internal controls effectively for risk management, as well as the requirements for business reporting. After completing this course, you should not only have a clear idea of how accounting information systems work, but you should also be prepared to design and configure them to meet the record-keeping and risk management requirements of the organization. In addition, you will be prepared to design them to...

...CHAPTER 6 INTERNAL CONTROL IN A FINANCIAL STATEMENT AUDIT Answers to Review Questions 6-1 From management's perspective, the internal control provides a way to meet its stewardship or agency responsibilities. Management also needs a control system that generates reliable information for decision-making purposes. The importance of internal control to the auditor is rooted in the second standard of fieldwork. The controls that are relevant to the entity's ability to initiate, record, process, and report financial data consistent with management's assertions are the auditor's main concern. The auditor needs assurances about the reliability of the data generated within the entity's internal control system in terms of how it affects the fairness of the financial statements and how well the assets and records of the entity are safeguarded. 6-2 The potential benefits and risks to an entity’s internal control from information technology include (see Table 6-1): Benefits: • Consistent application of predefined business rules and performance of complex calculations in processing large volumes of transactions or data. • Enhancement of the timeliness, availability, and accuracy of information. • Facilitation of additional analysis of information. • Enhancement of the ability to monitor the performance of the entity's activities and its policies and procedures. • Reduction in the risk that controls will be circumvented. ...
