Auditing An International Approach 7th edition Wally J. Smieliauskas, Kathryn Bewley - Solutions
Suppose you have audited a $600,000 recorded amount of inventory with a sample of 100 dollar units and their logical units and found no errors. What is the UEL at RIA = 0.05? RIA = 0.10? RIA = 0.25? RIA = 0.50?
What happens when two dollar units for the sample fall in the same logical unit?
How does MUS sample selection produce an automatic stratification of choosing the high-value logical units in a control account balance?
What effect does the identification of individually significant logical units have on the size of the recorded amount population for MUS?
All other factors remaining the same, will an MUS sample size be larger, smaller, or the same for a larger tolerable misstatement?
All other factors remaining the same, will an MUS sample size be larger, smaller, or the same for a larger expected misstatement?
All other factors remaining the same, will an MUS sample size be larger, smaller, or the same for a larger risk of incorrect acceptance?

Why is the risk of incorrect acceptance considered more critical than the risk of incorrect rejection in connection with audit decisions about an account balance?
If audit risk (AR) is 0.015, inherent risk (IR) is 0.50, control risk (CR) is 0.30, and analytical procedures risk (APR) is 0.50, what risk of incorrect acceptance (RIA) is suggested by the expanded risk model?
Is there any benefit to be gained from using the audit risk model to calculate risk of incorrect acceptance?

What steps are involved in selecting a sample using the systematic random selection method?
Are you required to use all five digits of a random number when you have a random number table, such as the one at the end of this appendix?
When you subdivide a population into two populations for attribute sampling, how do the two samples compare to the one sample that would have been drawn if the population had not been subdivided?
Test yourself to see whether you can get the sample size of 70 using the Poisson risk factor equation with these specifications: effectiveness risk = 5%, tolerable deviation rate = 9%, expected errors = 2.
What facts, estimates, and judgments do you need to figure a test of controls sample size using the R value tables and Poisson risk factors? What other relevant judgment is not used?
Test yourself to see whether you can get the sample size of 87 from the R value table with these specifications: effectiveness risk = 5%, tolerable deviation rate = 9%, expected errors = 3.
What facts, estimates, and judgments do you need to figure a test of controls sample size using the R value tables? What other relevant judgment is not used?
What professional judgment and estimation decisions must be made by auditors when applying statistical sampling in test of controls audit work?
What is the connection between material dollar misstatement assigned for the substantive audit of a balance and tolerable deviation rate used in a test of controls sample?
What is the connection between possible assessments of control risk and a judgment about tolerable rate, both considered prior to performing test of controls audit procedures?
What is the probability of finding one or more deviations in a sample of 100 units if the deviation rate in the population is only 0.5%?
What is the probability of finding one or more deviations in a sample of 100 if the population deviation rate is actually 2%?
What general considerations are important when an auditor decides on an acceptable risk of assessing control risk too low?
What general considerations are important when an auditor decides on an acceptable risk of assessing control too high?
If inherent risk (IR) is assessed as 0.90 and the detection risk (DR) implicit in an audit plan is 0.10, what audit risk (AR) is implied when the assessed level of control risk is each of 0.10, 0.50, 0.70, 0.90, and 1.0?
An advantage of statistical sampling is that it helps an auditora. Eliminate non-sampling risk.b. Reapply evaluation judgments based on factors in addition to the sample evidence.c. Be precise and definite in the approach to an audit problem.d. Omit quantification of risk and materiality judgments.
The risk of incorrect acceptance in balance audit sampling and the risk of assessing control risk too low in test of controls sampling both relate to which of the following?a. Effectiveness of an audit.b. Efficiency of an audit.c. Control risk assessment decisions.d. Evidence about assertions in
Stefani audited the client’s accounts receivable, but she could not get any good information about customer 102’s balance. The customer responded to the confirmation, saying, “Our system does not provide detail for such a response.” The sales invoice and shipping document papers have been
When calculating the total amount of misstatement relevant to the analysis of an account balance, an auditor should add which of the following to the misstatement discovered in individually significant items?a. The projected likely misstatement and the additional possible misstatement estimate.b.
Which of the following should be considered an audit procedure for obtaining evidence?a. An audit sampling application in accounts receivable selectionb. Existence and proper valuation of the accounts receivablec. Sending a written confirmation on a customer’s account balanced. Non-statistical
Nelson next considered the sample size needed for a selection of customers’ accounts receivable for the substantive audit of the total accounts receivable. He presented the following information for two alternative cases:
Nelson Williams was considering the sample size needed for a selection of sales invoices for the test of controls audit of the LoHo Company’s internal controls. He presented the following information for two alternative cases:
