Review Questions

1-1 The ―crisis of credibility‖ largely arose from the number of companies that restated their p
hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw



reviously issued financial statements as a result of accounting irregularities and fraud. Espe
hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw



cially responsible werethe very visible Enron and WorldCom fraud cases. Both companies fi
hw hw w
h hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw



led for bankruptcy and constituted the largest companies in American history to do so. Th
hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw



e extent of the accounting irregularities and fraud being investigated and disclosed brough
hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw

, t into question the effectiveness of financial statement audits. In addition, the criminal con
hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw



viction of Arthur Andersen, LLP, one of the then Big 5 accounting firms, on charges of de
hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw



stroying documents related to the Enron case brought into question the ethics standards
hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw



of the profession.

1-2 Assurance services are professional services that enhance the quality of information, or its
hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw



context, for decision-
hw hw hw



making. The two types are: (a) those that increase the reliability of information and (b) t
hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw



hose that involve putting information in a form or context that facilitates decision-
hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw



making.


1-3 A financial statement audit is, by far, the most common type of attest engagement. The
hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw



overall assertion,made by management, most frequently is that the financial statements follo
hw w
h hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw



w generally accepted accounting principles.

1-4 A large corporation with securities listed on a stock exchange is required by the rules of th
hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw



e stock exchange and by the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission to provide
hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw



an audit report with theannual financial statements furnished to its stockholders. It also is
hw hw hw hw w
h hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw



required to engage the auditors to provide an opinion on its internal control. Apart from
hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw



legal requirements, however, a large listed corporation recognizes that it must maintain in
hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw



vestor confidence in the reliability of its financial statements and internal control over finan
hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw



cial reporting if it is to continue to be able to secure capital from the public. The report
hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw



by a firm of certified public accountants adds credibility to the financial statements prepare
hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw



d by the corporation.
hw hw hw h w When a small family- hw hw hw



owned enterprise elects to have an audit, the purpose usually is to use the auditors' report
hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw hw



hw to support an application for a bank loan.
