Case $2.$ The two statements below are the result of an audit of an organization$$s cash controls. Specifically, the statements were part of the evidence gathered to satisfy the audit objective of $$determining whether all cash receipts are deposited intact daily.$$

Statement I. During an interview, the controller assured an internal auditor that all cash receipts are deposited as soon as is reasonably possible.

Statement II$.$ A comparison of a sample of cash receipts lists with the total of daily cash receipts journal entries and daily bank deposit slip amounts revealed that $(1).$ Each cash receipts list equaled cash journal entry amounts but not daily bank deposit amounts and $(2)$ each cash receipts list totals equaled bank deposit totals in the long run.

$1.$ Which of the evidence is irrelevant? $($Please highlight your selection$)$

a$.$ Statement I

b$.$ Statement II

c$.$ Both Statements I & II

d$.$ None of the statements is irrelevant $($i$.$e$.,$ both are relevant$)$

$2.$ Which evidence$($s$),$ if any, is$($are$)$ sufficient, relevant, and reliable to satisfy the audit objective? $($Note$,$ this question asks which evidence, if any, alone, or both together, is sufficient, relevant, and reliable enough to support auditor$$s finding, or opinion, regarding the audit objective. An example of finding can be $$the cash receipts are deposited intact daily$,$ or$,$the cash receipts are not deposited intact daily$.)$

$3.$ The evidence may support what audit finding? $($See the note above$)$
