Webinar: Avoiding the Most Misapplied Audit Concepts

Highlights

The major topics that will be covered in this course include:

• Risk Assessment - Properly assessing inherent, control, and detection risk on an engagement, and linking the results to an appropriately tailored detailed audit plan based on risk assessment and client service goals, regardless of entity type.
• Substantive Analytics- Leveraging strong substantive analytic procedures as audit evidence to cut back on tests of details.
• Selecting items to test common misunderstandings related to designing, performing and concluding on tests of details, including sampling.
• Identifying and Evaluating Internal Control Deficiencies - Emphasizing the importance of identifying both design and operating effectiveness deficiencies during the course of the audit, and how to properly categorize deficiencies as inconsequential, significant or material for impact on the audit or required communications with management and those charged with governance.
