AUDIT OF DEBTORS’ LEDGER The debtors’ ledger contains the accounts of customers to whom goods have been supplied, or services rendered, by the enterprise. Two stages are involved in the audit of debtors’ ledger: (a) Study and evaluation of accounting system and related internal controls, and (b) substantive procedures Slide 7.1

Audit of Fixed Assets Fixed assets constitute a significant proportion of the total assets of many enterprises, particularly those engaged in manufacturing activities. Audit of fixed assets is, therefore, generally an important part of an independent financial audit. Slide 7.1

DISTINCTION BETWEEN CAPITAL EXPENDITURE, REVENUE EXPENDITURE AND DEFERRED REVENUE EXPENDITURE In the case of an item of machinery, beside the price paid for acquiring it, costs incurred for making it ready for use, such as initial delivery and handling cost, installation cost and cost of trial runs, will also form part of capital expenditure. Slide 7.1

expenditure incurred on installation of an additional item of hardware in a computer, which increases its processing speed, is a capital expenditure. Similarly, expenditure resulting in additional capacity (e.g., replacement of a 40 MB hard disk of a computer by a 260 MB hard disk), or expenditure which results in a reduction in the cost of carrying out an activity (e.g., installation of an energy saving device which reduces the electricity consumption) is also a capital expenditure. Slide 7.1

Revenue Expenditure This refers to the expenditure incurred on carrying on operations during an accounting period, the benefits of which do not extend beyond that period. Examples of items of revenue expenditure are raw materials consumed, salaries and wages of the administrative staff, repairs and maintenance, legal expenses, losses due to fire, etc. Slide 7.1

Deferred Revenue Expenditure Sometimes, the expenditure incurred on an item is essentially in the nature of revenue expenditure, but it is treated as deferred revenue expenditure, i.e., it is carried forward in the balance sheet rather than being fully charged as an expenses in the profit and loss account for the period. The deferral of expenditure is appropriate only if a future accounting period is likely to receive benefit from the expenditure and the amount of such benefit is reasonably determinable. Slide 7.1

Cont… The test for determining whether the deferral of revenue expenditure is appropriate is whether a future period is likely to receive benefit from the outlay. The quantum of expenditure does not by itself justify its deferral. As a measure of prudence, deferred revenue expenditure is generally written-off over a period of 3-5 years. Slide 7.1

Similarly, he has to examine whether proper records of fixed assets acquired in previous years (as also in the current year) are available with the enterprise. Slide 7.1

Cont… The general approach to audit of all the above items is to- Study and evaluate the accounting system and internal controls; and Carry out appropriate substantive procedures, i.e., examination of records and documents, obtaining confirmation from independent third parties, examination of valuation and disclosure, analytical procedures and obtaining appropriate representations from the management Slide 7.1

Besides the above, in an independent financial audit carried out in pursuance of a legal requirement, the auditor may also be required to examine certain other specified aspects Slide 7.1
