Semaan, Gholam & Co.1 MANAGEMENT REPRESENTATIONS INTERNATIONAL STANDARD ON AUDITING 580

Semaan, Gholam & Co.2 Acknowledgment by Management of Its Responsibility for the Financial Statements The auditor should obtain audit evidence that management acknowledges its responsibility for the fair presentation of the financial statements in accordance with the applicable financial reporting framework, and has approved the financial statements.

Semaan, Gholam & Co.3 Representations by Management as Audit Evidence The auditor should obtain written representations from management on matters material to the financial statements when other sufficient appropriate audit evidence cannot reasonably be expected to exist.

Semaan, Gholam & Co.4 The auditor should obtain written representation from management that: A.It acknowledges its responsibility for the design and implementation of internal control to prevent and detect error; and B.It believes the effects of those uncorrected financial statement misstatements aggregated by the auditor during the audit are immaterial, both individually and in the aggregate, to the financial statements taken as a whole. A summary of such items should be included in or attached to the written representations.

Semaan, Gholam & Co.5 Representations by management cannot be a substitute for other audit evidence that the auditor could reasonably expect to be available. For example, a representation by management as to the cost of an asset is not a substitute for the audit evidence of such cost that an auditor would ordinarily expect to obtain.

Semaan, Gholam & Co.6 Documentation of Representations by Management A written representation is ordinarily more reliable audit evidence than an oral representation and can take the form of: (a)A representation letter from management; (b) A letter from the auditor outlining the auditor’s understanding of management’s representations, duly acknowledged and confirmed by management; or (c)Relevant minutes of meetings of the board of directors or similar body or a signed copy of the financial statements.

Semaan, Gholam & Co.7 Basic Elements of a Management Representation Letter It is to be addressed to the auditor, contain specified information and be appropriately dated and signed. Ordinarily be dated the same date as the auditor’s report. Ordinarily be signed by the members of management who have primary responsibility for the entity and its financial aspects based on the best of their knowledge and belief.

Semaan, Gholam & Co.8 Action if Management Refuses to Provide Representations If management refuses to provide a representation that the auditor considers necessary, this constitutes a scope limitation and the auditor should express a qualified opinion or a disclaimer of opinion.
