7 Tiffany Chapter Watt Auditing Homework AC 302 01 8-26 [LO 3,6] C. Ronaldo is an auditor working on the ICFR audit for the Manchester Corporation. Interest expense is an account that could produce a material misstatement on the financial statements, so it is tested in the ICFR audit. After performing a walkthrough the senior determines that the controls over interest expense are designed effectively. The audit plan for the ICFR audit includes testing an automated control for calculating interest expense transactions. In the audit planning stages, the senior sets the tolerable rate of error for this particular automated control at 2%. The audit plan directs C. Ronaldo to conducts his tests using a sample based on a nonstatistical approach. C. Ronaldo selects the sample and conducts the reperformance procedure the audit plan calls for to test the operating effectiveness of the control. He finds instances in 3% of his sample where the control did not operate as intended. Does C. Ronaldos testing indicate a deficiency the in control tested? If so, what is the next step? If C. Ronaldos results are valid, do you think the deficiency is severe enough to be a significant deficiency or a material weakness? What impact does that have on the ICFR audit opinion? What impact do the findings have on the financial statement audit plan? Answer: Not necessarily. The result could be cause by sampling risk (AU 350.10) that the sample does not represent the population from which it was drawn. If the auditor concludes the control is not operating effectively, then additional testing is warranted since the account the control monitors is material. This testing can take the form of either additional control testing to determine if the error rate continues above 2%. OR additional detailed tests of balances during the substantive portion of the audit. IF the control is not operating as designed, then this is a material weakness and warrants discussion with the audit committee, inclusion in the ICFR, and additional substantive work.
