AUDIT PRACTICE MANUAL

PRE ENGANEMENT

1. Pre Engagement Activities


The most important and crucial phase for practicing Cost and Management
Accountants ( CMA Firms / Auditors) is to decide whether to accept a new
client or to reject, on the basis of the information available about the client at
that time. Similarly, the decision, whether to continue relations with the
existing clients or to terminate the engagements, is also very critical. The
decision of client acceptance or continuance, as the case may be, is dependent
on the client evaluation, background checks and related ethical considerations.
The CMA Firms need to ensure periodical reviews of their existing clients at
least at after every 2-3 Years. Further, the practicing CMAs are also required to
ensure that audit engagements are conducted by adhering to the rules
prescribed in Code of Ethics issued by ICMA Pakistan and the ethical
requirement set out in Paragraph 26 of International Standard on Quality Control
1(ISQC-1) and International Standard on Auditing (ISA) 220 issued by IFAC.
1.1

Acceptance of New Client


1.1.1 Similar to other engagements, an auditor needs to be careful about
new clients, because of lack of previous experience with management
and governing boards, knowledge of business, transactions and the
associated risk affecting the financial statements and cost statements /
records. The risk associated w i t h t h e new clients is more vulnerable
than existing clients for the reasons stated above.
1.1.2 Though certain assignments, procedures for new and existing clients
are common but additional information about the new client is of high
significance. Accordingly, while accepting a new client, the auditor must
ensure communication with the predecessor auditors, if any.
1.1.3 The auditors shall complete the Form 001 as specified in Appendix
A before the engagement has been signed with the new client.

1.2

Continuance of Existing Client

Institute of Cost and Management Accountants of Pakistan

AUDIT PRACTICE MANUAL

decide whether to continue or not with the existing client, t h e r e i s
needed a sensible deliberation and evaluation of significant matters that
have arisen during the current or previous engagements, and their
implications for continuing the relationship.
1.2.2 The periodical review shall be made, not exceeding three years,
depending upon the relationship with c l i e n t or lesser when significant
information is available. C M F F i r m s s h a l l complete the Form 002
a s spe ci fi e d i n Appendix B, before the continuous engagement has
been signed.

CMA Firms / Auditors shall formulate the terms in accordance with the ISA 210 on
Agreeing the Terms of Audit Engagements.

access to all the relevant information necessary for the preparation of
statements and conduct of audit including any additional information which
auditors deems necessary from the management.

scope of auditors work related to audit engagement, and that the auditor believes
that such restriction will lead to disclaiming an opinion on the financial / cost
statement, the auditor shall not accept such limited engagement, except if
required by law or regulations.
2.4 For

recurring audits, the auditor shall evaluate the client whether


circumstances stipulate for revision of terms of audit engagements or only
presents terms need to be communicated.

3. Changes in Terms of Audit Engagement

engagement, irrespective by the auditor or on the request of the clients
management, the auditor shall critically evaluate the changes and to
accept or reject the changes is a matter of professional judgment. It
should be done with full justifications and shall be brought in writing.

in circumstances that effects the entitys requirements for an audit or due
to a misunderstanding concerning the nature of service originally
requested.
3.3

The application of any one or combination of these methods may be
appropriate depending upon the particular circumstances and the practicality and
efficiency of different methods.

In making decision to select items for testing, the relevant factors include,
auditors understanding of the entity, assessed risk of material misstatement, and
the population characteristics.

Selecting All Items
fr.
2.2
If the auditor concludes that specific audit areas are required to be fully
examined in order to express his opinion on the financial statements, he will
evaluate the 100% population that make up of class of transaction or account
balance. 100% is unlikely in case of test of controls and more common for test of
details.

Selection of Specific Items
fv.

fw.

2.4

2.5

2.3
The auditor may decide to select specific items from a population. Specific
items may include:
fx.
a.
High value or key items
b.
Items above certain amount threshold
c.
Items needed for further information
fy.
The judgmental selection of specific items is subject to non-sampling risk. The
results of the audit procedures applied to selected items cannot be projected to
entire population; accordingly, selective examination of specific items does not
provide audit evidence concerning the remainder of the population.
fz.
Audit sampling is applied to enable conclusions to be drawn about the entire
population on the basis of testing a sample drawn from it in accordance with ISA530 Audit Sampling.

3. Audit Sampling
gc.
gd.
Audit sampling is the application of audit procedures to conduct the audit of
less than 100% items. Sampling approach is applied on entire population by
ensuring that all units have a chance of selection in order to provide the auditor
with a reasonable basis to substantiate the conclusion and to form the audit
opinion. Auditor shall ensure that tests and procedures are applied to the items
selected through audit sampling,
ge.

4. Sampling Risk
gf.
gg.
Sampling risk is the risk that the auditors conclusion, in case the entire
population is subject to same audit procedures as are selected samples, could be
different from the conclusion drawn from audit procedures performed to selected
samples. Sampling risk can lead to two types of erroneous conclusions as detailed
below:
gh.
gi.
gj.
4.1
Affecting Audit Effectiveness
gk.
gl.
The following are the elements that impact audit
effectiveness:gm.
gn.
4.1.1
Test of Control - Risk of Over Reliance

go. This is the incorrect conclusion that assessed levels of control risk
based on samples supports preliminary assessment of control risk.
gp.
gq.
gr.

4.1.2
Substantive Test of Details - Risk of Incorrect
Acceptance

gs.
gt. This is the incorrect conclusion that sample estimates of accounts
balances or misstatements in accounts balances supports conclusion
that the recorded balances are not materially misstated.
gu.
gv.
gw. 4.2
Affecting Efficiency of Audit
gx.
gy.
Following elements affect the work of an auditor and prompt auditor to
do additional work:gz.
ha.
4.2.1
Test of Control - Risk of Under

Reliance
hb.
hc. This is the incorrect conclusion that assessed levels of control risk
based on samples do not supports preliminary assessment of control
risk.
hd.
he.

4.2.2
Rejection
hf.

Substantive Test of Details - Risk of Incorrect

hg.
hh.

hj.

This is the incorrect conclusion that sample estimates of accounts


balances or misstatements in accounts balances do not supports
conclusion that the recorded balances are not materially misstated.
hi.
Sampling risk is frequently expressed as a percentage (%). Risk can also
be expressed in terms of confidence levels and reliability factors. A confidence
level is the degree of assurance that the material error does not exist and it is
opposite of risk.

hk.

5. Non-Sampling Risk
hl.
hm. Component of detection risk, which is not due to examining any portion of
the data is called, non-sampling risk. Non-sampling risk is due to

inappropriate audit procedures, misinterpretation of audit evidence and failure to


recognize the misstatements. Following are the few sources of non-sampling
risk:hn.
a.
Non investigation
of significant
fluctuation in analytical procedures.
b.
Reliance on management representations as
alternative source for audit evidence.
ho.

6. Sampling Approaches
hp.
6.1

There are several methods for audit sampling. Audit sampling can be done
through statistical or non-statistical sampling approach.

hq.
6.2

6.3

hr.
Statistical Sampling Approach
Statistical sampling approach means determining the items to be selected
through available statistics. Random selection of items and use of probability
theory to evaluate sample results are the examples of statistical sampling
approach.
hs.
ht.
Non Statistical Sampling Approach
The selection of items, which is not based on statistics, is called non statistical
sampling approach.
hu.

7. Planning the Sample Selection


7.1

7.2

hv.
Following shall be considered for planning the sample account balances and
transactions.
hw.
a. Materiality and the number of items in population
b. Inherent Risk
c. Cost and time required
d. Relevance and reliability of evidence
hx.
hy.
Steps for Planning the Sample
hz.
Following Steps shall be considered for planning the sample audit:ia.
a.
Determine the objective of the test.
b.
Define errors and deviations being sought.
c.
Decide the size of the sample.
d.
Identify the population and sampling units.

ib.
ic.
Steps for planning are explained in detail below:
id.
Objectives of the Test
ie.
7.2.1 It is the responsibility of the auditor to consider the specific objectives to be
achieved and the combination of audit procedures that is likely to best
achieve the specified objectives. Both tests of control and substantive
procedures can be performed to the items of population selected through
audit sampling techniques.
if.
ig. Test of Control
ih.
7.2.2 Sampling is applicable in testing the operation of controls, when there is a
trail of documentary or electronic evidence of the performance of
control procedures.
ii.
ij.
ik. Substantive Tests
il.
7.2.3 Substantive test for sampling plans may form one of two procedures. The
first approach is to obtain evidence that an account balance is not
materially misstated. The second approach is to make independent
estimates of some amount.
im.
7.2.4 Substantive test for sampling plans may form one of two procedures. The
first approach is to obtain evidence that an account balance is not
materially misstated. The second approach is to make independent
in.
io.
Definition of Error and Deviation
ip.
7.2.5 The auditor shall consider what constitutes an error by referring to the
objectives of the test. The objective of test of control is to identify the
deviations from the prescribed control procedures. The objective of test of
details or substantive testing is the identification of errors or misstatements in
recorded transactions or balances.
iq.
ir.
is.
Identification of population and sample units
it.
7.2.6 Auditor shall identify the population and the sampling unit strictly in
accordance with the objectives of the audit test. While selecting the samples,
auditor shall ensure that population is appropriate and complete. For test of
controls, the population must have the same control characteristics.
iu.
Stratification

iv.
7.2.7 Stratification is one of several method of sample selection. Stratification is
dividing population in creating relatively homogeneous group. This method is
widely used for substantive testing.
iw.
ix.

Size of the Sample


iy.
7.2.8 The auditor shall determine sample size to reduce the sample risk at an
acceptable low level. The auditor shall determine the sample size either
through use of statistical formula or the exercise of professional judgment.
iz.

8. Sample Selection and Testing


ja.
8.1

While selecting the items for audit sampling, the auditor shall ensure that
there is every possibility for each sampling unit in the population to be
selected. Following are commonly used methods for obtaining representative
samples for audit sampling (for details, ISA 530 be referred):jb.
8.1.1 Statistical
a.
b.
c.

jc.
Random selection
Systematic selection
Monitory unit sampling

jd.
8.1.2 Non-Statistical

jg.
8.2

je.
a.
Haphazard Selection
b.
Block Selection
jf.
Projection of Error to Population
jh.
If errors or deviations appear to be consistent with those which were anticipated
during the procedures planning the same can then be projected to consider the
effect on the population .
ji.
jj.
If errors or deviations appear to be consistent with those which were
anticipated during the procedures planning the same can then be projected to
consider the effect on the population.
jk.
jl.
jm.
Both statistical and non-statistical sampling requires sample results to
be projected on the population.

jn.
jo.
Test
of
Controls
jp.
8.2.1 The rate of errors or deviations in the sample may be taken to be the rate of
deviation or error in the population.
jq.
jr.
Test of Control
js.
8.2.2 There are two quantitative methods of error projections for substantive
tests. The use of these methods depends on whether or not the error relates
closely to the size of the item.
jt.
ju.
(a) Routine Methods
jv.
jw.
This method is used, if errors relates closely to the size of
the items. As the monetary value of the items increases, the
monetary value of error increase.
jx.
jy.
(b) Difference Method
jz.
ka.
The difference method is used, where error does not have
direct relationship to the monetary value of the items. These errors
will increase in proportion to the number of items in the population.
kb.

9. Evaluating Results of Audit Sampling


9.1

9.2

kc.
The auditor shall evaluate the results of sample and that the use of audit sampling
has provided a reasonable basis for conclusion about the population that has
been tested. The auditor while evaluating misstatements should not include,
anomalous error(s) from projected misstatement, however, such errors may be
considered while evaluation of misstatement within the sample. Auditor shall
obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence to validate the fact that error or
deviation is anomalous.
kd.
Every error or deviation discovered during audit need to be evaluated for its
implementations. Auditor shall consider the following:
ke.
a.
Error or deviation has an effect on the whole population.
b.
Error or deviation has local occurrence.

c.
kg.

Error or deviation has isolated effect.

kf.
9.3
While analyzing the errors or deviations, their nature, cause and possible
impact on the financial statement as whole should be considered. In case errors
or deviation have common and potentially significant features, a sub-population
of items of that feature may be identified for further testing.
kh.

10.

Sample Audit Programs

ki.

kj.

10.1

The main objective of the audit process is to conduct the audit and for
that the importance of preparation of steps o f audit cannot be over
emphasized. The purpose of audit program is to document the procedures planned
and to be performed in respect of the class of transactions and account balances.
Auditor shall ensure that the audit programs are prepared for key areas of the
financial statements in order to determine the planned audit approach for various
audit objectives.
kk.

mq.
13.2 Physical verification of the inventory in the presence of the auditor
provides assurance that procedures applied for physical count by the client
are accurate.
mr.
ms.
13.3 The auditor shall also carry out the test counts on the cutoff date and
timing. The inventory count normally covers three stages i.e., before, during
and after physical inventory counting. The auditor shall use both bottom-up
and top-down approach for selecting samples for inventory counting.
mt.
mu.
13.4 If the client has efficient inventory counting system, the physical inventory may
be carried on continues basis instead of counting all items at year end.
mv.

can only be authenticated by the concern party. For ensuring that the
balances are correct, these be got confirmed from related parties.
Confirmation and inquiry is defined by ISA as, "Audit evidence obtained as a
direct written response to the auditor from the responding party, in paper form,
or by electronic or other medium. While using external confirmation
procedure as audit evidence, the auditor shall maintain control over
confirmation requests.
nc.
nd.
14.2 The auditor shall ensure that information from third party is received
directly from concerned party.
ne.
14.3 Confirmation received directly from third party in paper form is most
authenticated than the evidence received through facsimile or electronic mail.

the originator cannot be authenticated. If the auditor feels that response
through electronic mean is not authentic, he may ask for authentication
through paper. If the response from third party is received through client,
auditor may request confirming party to respond directly with auditor, in
writing. The letters to be sent to third parties for confirmation of the
information are stated below and these sample letters be modified as per
the requirements of the auditor or client:nf.

i. To test the completeness of the above lists, perform the following
specific procedures:
inspect other information obtained during the audit that may indicate the existence of
related parties or related party transactions including bank confirmations and legal
letters.
review transactions that the entity may have entered into that, because of their nature,
may indicate the existence of related parties or related party transactions.
3. Consider whether fraud risks may arise from the identified related party relationships and
transactions (including circumstances relating to the existence of a dominant party) and
whether additional risk assessment procedures should be performed.
i. As a result of our further audit procedures, if we identify related parties
or related party transactions that management has not previously
identified or disclosed:
promptly communicate any newly identified related parties to the other members of
the engagement team to enable them to determine whether this information affects
the results of, and conclusions drawn from, audit procedures already performed,
including whether the risks of material misstatement, including the risks of fraud,
need to be reassessed;
request management to identify all transactions with the newly identified related
parties for our further evaluation;
inquire as to why the entitys controls over related party relationships and transactions
failed to enable the identification or disclosure of the newly identified related party
relationships or transactions.
