You have been asked to test the effectiveness of Ingo Corporation's control of manually approving all purchases over $25,000. During the year, Ingo Corporation has made 1,000,000 purchases, of which 3,000 were over $25,000. Jian Zhang, CPA, your supervisor, asked you to use a tolerable deviation rate of 5 percent (although she expects the rate to be only approximately 0.50 percent) and a 5 percent risk of assessing control risk too low. Use the following to determine the planned assessed level of control risk and the assessed level of control risk. (Planned) Assessed Level of Control Risk Low Moderate Slightly below the maximum Maximum a. What is the planned assessed level of control risk? O Low Moderate Slightly below the maximum Maximum Tolerable Deviation Rate 2-7% 6-12% 11-20% Over 20% b. Determine the appropriate sample size and allowable number of deviations using Figure 9.4.

An auditor desired to test credit approval on 10,000 sales invoices processed during the year. The auditor designed a statistical sample that would provide 1 percent risk of assessing control risk too low for the assertion that not more than percent of the sales invoices lacked approval. The auditor estimated from previous experience that about 22 percent of the sales invoices lacked approval. A sample of 200 Invoices was examined, and 7 of them were lacking approval. The auditor then determined the computed upper deviation rate to be 8 percent. In the evaluation of this sample, the auditor decided to increase the level of the preliminary assessment of control risk because the: Multiple Choice O expected population deviation rate (7 percent) was more than the percentage of errors in the sample (3½ percent). expected population deviation rate (2½ percent) was less than the tolerable deviation rate (7 percent). tolerable deviation rate (7 percent) was less than the computed upper…
The 4,000 accounts receivable of GHI Company have a total book value of $60,000. Bob Smith, Certified Public Accountant (CPA), has selected and audited a sample of 100 accounts with a total book value of $1,600. Using the mean-per-unit estimation technique, Smith has properly estimated a projected misstatement of a $8,000 overstatement for the entire population. The audited value of Smith's sample is: Multiple Choice $1,600 $1,800 $1,300 $1,400
An audit firm is conducting the audit of Diaz Construction Company for the fiscal year ended October 31. Rebecca Smith, the partner in charge of the audit, decides that MUS is the appropriate sampling technique to use in order to audit Diaz’s inventory account. The balance in the inventory at October 31 was $4,250,000. Rebecca has established the following: risk of incorrect acceptance = 5% (i.e., the desired confidence level of 95%), tolerable misstatement = $212,500, and expected misstatement = $63,750. Calculate the sample size and sampling interval using Table 8-5 in the textbook (round your interval answer to the nearest whole number).
A scrap metal dealer claims that tye mean of its cash sales in no more than $80, although an Internal revenue service agent believes that the dealer is being dishonest. Observing a sample of 20 cash customers the agent finds the mean cash sales to be $91 with a standard deviation of $21. Assuming the popUlation is distributed Approximately normally, and using the 0.05 level of significance , will the agents suspicion be confirmed?
You are auditing the accounts receivable for Conor Company as of December 31, 2022 One of your procedures was to send positive confirmations to a sample of 50 accounts. Of those 50 confirmations, 40 have been positively confirmed without comments, 7 had minor differences that have been cleared satisfactorily. The remaining 3 had the following comments: “We received $6,000 of goods on consignment on November 20, 2022. We have not sold them yet.” “We received these goods on January 5, 2023 and mailed a check on January 7, 2023.” “The balance of $2,000 was paid on December 10, 2022.” For each of these comments, identify the steps that you would take to clear (resolve) them.

Assume that you are auditing the inventory of Husky Manufacturing Company for the year ended December 31, 2015, and you are using MUS. The book value is $8,124,998.66. The risk of incorrect acceptance is 10% (90% confidence level). The tolerable misstatement is $275,000, and expected misstatement is $80,000, so the ratio of expected misstatement to tolerable misstatement is 29%. The ratio of tolerable misstatement to the population book value is 4.3%. Calculate the sample size and the sampling interval. Calculate the total estimated misstatement assuming the following misstatements were found in the sample: Book value Audit value $41,906.45 $36,906.45 $335,643.28 $333,643.28 What conclusion do you reach based upon your calculation?
