11 EVALUATION OF MISSTATEMENTS IDENTIFIED DURING THE AUDIT

12  Misstatement – A difference between the amounts, classification, presentation, or disclosure of a reported financial statement item and the amount, classification, presentation, or disclosure that is required for the item to be in accordance with the applicable financial reporting framework. Misstatements can arise from error or fraud.  Uncorrected misstatements – Misstatements that the auditor has accumulated during the audit and that have not been corrected.

13  Accumulation of Uncorrected Misstatements  Consideration of misstatements as the Audit progresses  Communication and Correction of Misstatements  Evaluating effect of uncorrected misstatements  Communication with Those Charged with Governance  Written Representation and Documentation

14  Avoid immaterial misstatements TYPES OF MISSTATEMENT  Factual Mistatements  Judgmental Mistatements  Projected Mistatements

17  In writing  Overall impact  When management and governing body same report to management sufficient  Written Representations & Documentation

18 THE AUDITOR’S RESPONSIBILITY IN RELATION TOOTHER INFORMATION IN DOCUMENTS CONTAINING AUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

19  SCOPE - Auditor not responsible to check other information but for credibility he may read other information  OBJECTIVE – Develop Auditor’s response with respect to the documents in the report

20  (a) Other information – Financial and non-financial information (other than the financial statements and the auditor’s report thereon) which is included, either by law, regulation or custom, in a document containing audited financial statements and the auditor’s report thereon. (b) Inconsistency – Other information that contradicts information contained in the audited financial statements. A material inconsistency may raise doubt about the audit conclusions drawn from audit evidence previously obtained and, possibly, about the basis for the auditor’s opinion on the financial statements. (c) Misstatement of fact – Other information that is unrelated to matters appearing in the audited financial statements that is incorrectly stated or presented. A material misstatement of fact may undermine the credibility of the document containing audited financial statements.

21  SEARCH ◦ Auditor should arrange and read other information in advance like Management’s report, Financial summaries, Ratios, etc  RESPOND WHEN INCONSITENCIES IDENTIFIED ◦ If change needed in Auditor’s report – Proceed ◦ If change required in FS and Management refuses – Report to GB, Add separate para in Auditor’s report or withdraw, if permitted ◦ If required, expert opinion may be recommended
