Auditing refers to a systematic and independent examination of books, accounts, documents and
vouchers of an organization to ascertain how far the financial statements present a true and fair
view of the concern. It also attempts to ensure that the books of accounts are properly maintained
by the concern as required by law. Auditing has become such a ubiquitous phenomenon in the
corporate and the public sector that academics started identifying an "Audit Society". [1] The
auditor perceives and recognizes the propositions before him/her for examination, obtains
evidence, evaluates the same and formulates an opinion on the basis of his judgment which is
communicated through his audit report.

internal control relevant to the Companys preparation of the financial statements that give a true
and fair view in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but
not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on whether the Company has in place an adequate
internal financial controls system over financial reporting and the operating effectiveness of such
internal controls. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of the accounting policies
used and the reasonableness of the accounting estimates made by the Companys Directors, as

AUDITING
Meaning:
Auditing refers to a systematic and independent examination of books, accounts, documents and
vouchers of an organization to ascertain how far the financial statements present a true and fair
view of the concern. It also attempts to ensure that the books of accounts are properly maintained
by the concern as required by law. Auditing has become such a ubiquitous phenomenon in the
corporate and the public sector that academics started identifying an "Audit Society". [1] The
auditor perceives and recognizes the propositions before him/her for examination, obtains
evidence, evaluates the same and formulates an opinion on the basis of his judgment which is
communicated through his audit report.
Define
An examination and verification of a company's financial and accounting records and
Supporting documents by a professional, such as a Certified Public Accountant.
Features:
The following are the essential features of auditing:
1) Accounting Control Audit is an instrument of accounting control. The truth and fairness
of the accounting information is controlled and checked by auditing activities.
18
3) Assurance Audit assures on the proprietors' behalf that the accounts maintained truly
represents facts and expenditure has been incurred with due regularity and propriety.
4) Assessment Audit assesses the adequacy of the accounting system in order to ascertain its
effectiveness in maintaining accounting records of an organization.
5) Review Audit carries out a review of the financial statements to know whether the
accounting records are in agreement with those statements.
6) Reporting Tool Audit is a tool for reporting on the financial statements as required by the
terms of the auditors' appointment and in compliance with the relevant statutory
obligations.
7) Practical Subject Auditing is a practical subject. It is something that people do. How it is
done today is a result of long history of marginal changes and responses to new
commercial and legal developments over the centuries with the most rapid progress in the
last few years.
Advantages:
Auditing has become a compulsory task in the business organization. All the organizations like
business, social, industries and trading organizations make audit of books of accounts. Now-a-
days, owner of business and its management are separate. So, to detect and prevent frauds,
auditing has become essential. Its advantages are as follows:
19
If there is any loss in the property of business, insurance company provides compensation on the
basis of audited statement of valuation made my the auditor. So, it helps to get compensation.
20
Auditing shows the profitability and financial position of an organization which creates faith of
public over the business. Thus, auditing helps to increase goodwill of an organization.
As the trade and commerce grew extensively globally, the involvement of public money therein
also increased manifolds. This in turn created a demand from the investors to have the accounts
of the business ventures examined by a person independent of the owners and management of
the business to ensure that they were correct and reliable. Such a demand laid down the
foundation for the profession of auditing. The extent of reliance placed by the public on the
auditors has increased so much with time that it is, unreasonably of course, felt by the public that
nothing can go wrong with an organization which has been audited. Though the fact that an audit
has been carried out is not a guarantee as to the future viability of an enterprise, it is extremely
important that the auditors carry out their assignments with utmost professional care and
sincerity, to uphold the faith posed by the public in them.
As mentioned earlier, the Auditing and Assurance Standards Board of the Institute formulates
the auditing standards. Broadly, following is the procedure for formulating auditing standards:
1. The Auditing and Assurance Standards Board identifies the areas where auditing standards
need to be formulated and the priority in regard to their selection.
2. In the preparation of the auditing standards, the Board is normally, assisted by study groups
comprising of a cross section of members of the Institute.
3. On the basis of the work of the study groups, an Exposure Draft of the proposed auditing
standard is prepared by the Board and issued for comments of the members.
4. After taking into the comments received, the draft of the proposed auditing standard is
finalised by the Board and submitted to the Council of the Institute.
21
5. The Council considers the final draft of the proposed auditing standard and, if necessary,
modifies the same in consultation with the Board. The auditing standard is then issued under the
authority of the Council. While formulating the auditing standards, the Board also takes into
consideration the applicable laws, customs, usages and business environment in the country.
