Performing inquiry and analytical procedures is the primary basis for an accountant to issue a
Review report on comparative financial statements for a nonpublic entity in its second year of
operations.
A review of historical financial statements consists principally of inquiry and analytics. Major
financial assistance programs must be audited and reviews are not performed on prospective
financial statements. Management advisory services do not require the use of inquiry and
analytical procedures.

Which of the following procedures is ordinarily performed by an accountant during an
engagement to compile the financial statements of a nonissuer?
Consider whether the financial statements are free from obvious material mistakes in the
application of accounting principles.
A compilation requires the accountant to read the financial statements and, using that
knowledge, evaluate whether there are obvious mistakes in the application of accounting
principles. Inquiries are made in audits and reviews, not compilations. The accountant is not
required to determine if there is substantial doubt about an entity's ability to continue as a
going concern but should be alert to indications that it might be an issue. A compilation does
not require the accountant to scan the accounting records to identify subsequent events.

An accountant has been engaged to compile the financial statements of a nonpublic entity.
The financial statements contain many departures from GAAP because of inadequacies in the
accounting records. The accountant believes that modification of the compilation report is not
adequate to indicate the deficiencies. Under these circumstances, the accountant should
Withdraw from the engagement and provide no further service concerning these financial
statements.
When an accountant compiling financial statements becomes aware of one or more material
GAAP departures, the accountant should request that the client modify the financial
statements. Upon failure to do so, the accountant would determine if it is sufficient to modify
the report. If not, the accountant will withdraw from the engagement and will not provide any
future services in relation to those financial statements. A GAAP departure is not a basis for
restricting the use of a compilation report. The accountant may issue a modified report but
does not issue a special report for a GAAP departure. The accountant may not be associated
with the financial statements, even if the client represents that they will not be used to obtain
credit.
