1. To do an audit, there must be information in a verifiable form and some
standards (criteria) by which the auditor can evaluate the information.
UV
Determining the degree of correspondence between information and
established criteria is determining whether a given set of information is in
accordance with the established criteria. For an audit of a company’s
financial statements the criteria are U.S. generally accepted accounting
principles or International Financial Reporting Standards.
IA
2. The four primary causes of information risk are remoteness of information,
biases and motives of the provider, voluminous data, and the existence of
complex exchange transactions.
The three main ways to reduce information risk are:
_A
1. User verifies the information.
2. User shares the information risk with management.
3. Audited financial statements are provided.
