Chapter 2

The CPA Profession

Review Questions

2-1The four major services that CPAs provide are:

1. Assurance services Assurance services are independent

professional services that improve the quality of information for

decision makers. Assurance services include attestation services,

which are any services in which the CPA firm issues a report that

expresses a conclusion about the reliability of an assertion that is

the responsibility of another party. The four categories of attestation

services are audits of historical financial statements, attestation on

the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, reviews

of historical financial statements, and other attestation services.

2. Accounting and bookkeeping services Accounting services involve

preparing the client's financial statements from the client's records.

Bookkeeping services include the preparation of the client's

journals and ledgers as well as financial statements.

3. Tax services Tax services include preparation of corporate,

individual, and estate returns as well as tax planning assistance.

4. Management consulting services These services range from

suggestions to improve the client's accounting system to computer

installations.

2-2The major characteristics of CPA firms that permit them to fulfill their social function competently and independently are:

1. Organizational form A CPA firm exists as a separate entity to avoid

an employer-employee relationship with its clients. The CPA firm

employs a professional staff of sufficient size to prevent one client

from constituting a significant portion of total income and thereby

endangering the firm's independence.

2. Conduct A CPA firm employs a professional staff of sufficient size

to provide a broad range of expertise, continuing education, and

promotion of a professional independent attitude and competence.

3. Peer review This practice evaluates the performance of CPA firms

in an attempt to keep competence high.

2-3The Public Company Accounting Oversight Board provides oversight for auditors of public companies, including establishing auditing and quality control standards for public company audits, and performing inspections of the quality controls at audit firms performing those audits.

2-4The purpose of the Securities and Exchange Commission is to assist in providing investors with reliable information upon which to make investment decisions. Since most reasonably large CPA firms have clients that must with the SEC each year (all companies filing registration statements under the securities acts of l933 and l934 must financial statements and other reports with the SEC at least once each year), the profession is highly involved with the SEC requirements.

The SEC has considerable influence in setting generally accepted accounting principles and disclosure requirements for financial statements because of its authority for specifying reporting requirements considered necessary for fair disclosure to investors. In addition, the SEC has power to establish rules for any CPA associated with audited financial statements submitted to the Commission.

2-5The AICPA is the organization that sets professional requirements for CPAs. The AICPA also conducts research and publishes materials on many different subjects related to accounting, auditing, management advisory services, and taxes. The organization also prepares and grades the CPA examinations, provides continuing education to its members, and develops specialty designations to help market and assure the quality of services in specialized practice areas.

2-6Statement on Standards for Attestation Engagements was first issued in 1986 and its purposes were to provide a framework for attest engagements and to develop standards for those engagements. In 2001, the Auditing Standards Board issued SSAE 10 in response to the need for more detailed standards for specific types of attestation services. SSAE 10 supercedes the previously issued standards and its main purpose is to improve the usefulness of the attestation standards and provide greater flexibility to practitioners in providing assurance services.

2-7 The PCAOB now has responsibility for establishing auditing standards for public companies, while the Auditing Standards Board (ASB) of the AICPA establishes auditing standards for private companies. The ASB previously had responsibility for establishing auditing standards for both public and private companies. Existing auditing standards were adopted by the PCAOB as interim auditing standards for public company audits.

2-8 Generally accepted auditing standards are ten general guidelines to aid auditors in fulfilling their professional responsibilities. These guidelines include three general standards concerned with competence, independence, and due professional care; three standards of field work including planning and supervision, study and evaluation of internal control, and the gathering of competent evidential matter; and four standards of reporting which require a statement as to presentation in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, inconsistency observed in the current period in relation to the preceding period, adequate disclosure, and the expression of an opinion as to the fairness of the presentation of the financial statements.

2-8 (continued)

Generally accepted accounting principles are specific rules for accounting for transactions occurring in a business enterprise. Examples may be any of the opinions of the FASB.

2-9Auditors can obtain adequate technical training and proficiency through formal education in auditing and accounting, adequate practical experience, and continuing professional education. Auditors can demonstrate their proficiency by becoming licensed to practice as CPAs, which requires successful completion of the Uniform CPA Examination. The specific requirements for licensure vary from state to state.

2-10For the most part, generally accepted auditing standards are general rather than specific. Many practitioners along with critics of the profession believe the standards should provide more clearly defined guidelines as an aid in determining the extent of evidence to be accumulated. This would eliminate some of the difficult audit decisions and provide a source of defense if the CPA is charged with conducting an inadequate audit. On the other hand, highly specific requirements could turn auditing into mechanical evidence gathering, void of professional judgment. From the point of view of both the profession and the users of auditing services, there is probably a greater harm from defining authoritative guidelines too specifically than too broadly.

2-11International Standards on Auditing (ISAs) are issued by the International Auditing Practices Committee (IAPC) of the International Federation of Accountants (IFAC). ISAs are designed to improve the uniformity of auditing practices and related services throughout the world by issuing pronouncements on a variety of audit and attest functions and promoting their acceptance worldwide. A CPA who conducts an audit in accordance with GAAS may not comply with ISAs because there may be additional ISA requirements that extend beyond GAAS requirements.

2-12 Quality controls are the procedures used by a CPA firm that help it meet its professional responsibilities to clients. Quality controls are therefore established for the entire CPA firm as opposed to individual engagements.

2-13The element of quality control is personnel management. The purpose of the requirement is to help assure CPA firms that all new personnel should be qualified to perform their work competently. A CPA firm must have competent employees conducting the audits if quality audits are to occur.

2-14 A peer review is a review, by CPAs, of a CPA firm's compliance with its quality control system. A mandatory peer review means that such a review is required periodically. AICPA member firms are required to have a peer review every three years. Registered firms with the PCAOB are subject to quality inspections. These are different than peer reviews because they are performed by independent inspection teams rather than another CPA firm.

2-14 (continued)

Peer reviews can be beneficial to the profession and to individual firms. By helping firms meet quality control standards, the profession gains if reviews result in practitioners doing higher quality audits. A firm having a peer review can also gain if it improves the firm's practices and thereby enhances its reputation and effectiveness, and reduces the likelihood of lawsuits. Of course peer reviews are costly. There is always a trade off between cost and benefits. A CPA firm also gives up some independence of activities when it is reviewed by another CPA firm.

2-15The two divisions of practice that a CPA firm may belong to are the SEC Practice Section (renamed the Center for Public Company Audit Firms)and the Private Companies Practice Section. A firm may belong to one section, both sections, or neither. Many of the self-regulatory activities of the SECPS have been taken over by the PCAOB.

Proponents of this division believe that this will improve the quality of practice by CPA firms and that it will improve self-regulation. Critics state that it establishes two classes of CPAs and implies a lower performance quality for firms that are not members of the SEC Practice Section.

Multiple Choice Questions From CPA Examinations

2-16 a. (1) b. (2) c. (3) d. (3)

2-17 a. (2) b. (2) c. (3)

Discussion Questions And Problems

2-18

a.The comments summarize the beliefs of many practitioners about the

Sarbanes–Oxley Act and the PCAOB. The arguments against the Act can be summarized as four arguments:

1. Costs of complying with the Act are excessively high, especially the

requirement to report on internal control over financial reporting,

and will discourage companies from becoming public companies.

2. Relative cost for local audit firms is excessively high.

3. Additional oversight is not needed because sufficient quality

controls have already been implemented by most audit firms.

4. Three other things already provide assurance of adequate quality:

a competitive economic environment, legal liability, and auditing

standards.

To support these comments, it can be argued that the profession has generally functioned well with relatively little controversy and criticism.

2-18 (continued)

The arguments against these comments are primarily as follows:

1. Reporting on the effectiveness of internal control over financial

reporting will provide benefits in improved controls, resulting in

higher quality financial reporting and reduced losses from fraud.

2. The increased confidence in financial reporting will increase access

to capital and lower the cost of capital by reducing information risk.

3. Changes in the scope of CPA practices and other threats to audit

quality required government regulation.

4. Regulation of public company audits will not affect most audit firms

that do not have public company audit clients.

b. There is no correct answer to this question. Different people reach

different conclusions, depending on the weights put on the various arguments. Time is needed to effectively assess both the costs and benefits of the Act.

2-19 a. Engagement performance

b. Personnel management

c. Engagement performance

d. Engagement performance

e. Independence, integrity, and objectivity

f. Monitoring

g. Acceptance and continuation of clients and engagements

h. Personnel management

i. Personnel management

2-20 a. Rossi and Montgomery's primary ethical consideration is their professional competence to perform all of the audit work for filing

with the SEC. In addition, if Rossi and Montgomery have performed

bookkeeping services or certain consulting services for Mobile

Home, they will not be independent under PCAOB and SEC

independence requirements. The firm must also be a registered

firm with the PCAOB.

b. The filing with the SEC, in addition to normal audited financial

statements, will require completion and registration with the SEC of

Form S-1 which includes an audited summary of operations for the

last five fiscal years as well as many additional schedules and

descriptions of the business. Each quarter subsequent to the filing,

Form 10-Q must be filed; and within 90 days of the end of each

fiscal year Form 10-K must be filed with the SEC.

In addition, Form 8-K must be filed whenever significant events have occurred which are of interest to public investors.

These forms must be filed in conformity with Regulation S-X, which

requires considerable disclosures in addition to those normally

required in audited financial statements.

2-21

2-22 a. CPAs can provide the following information and Web links on their firm Web sites:

Office locations or affiliations

Lines of service the firm provides (audit, tax, management consulting, etc.)

Industry specialization information for the firm

Online software tools and databases

Latest tax law developments applicable to clients

Calculators for retirement account decisions

Online privacy management software

b. CPA firms invest their resources to develop sophisticated Web sites

largely because of a desire to maintain a client-service approach.

Increased competition motivates CPA firms to improve the

traditional paths of providing information to their clients. A CPA firm

can reach clients more quickly and efficiently with vital information

via the firm’s Web site than through more traditional forms of

communication, such as a monthly or quarterly newsletter. Also, as

more clients become sophisticated in the area of technology, they

expect their CPA firms to do the same by providing a useful Web

site that has links to other helpful tools and resources.

c. The Internet is a useful tool for a CPA firm’s accounting and

auditing practice in many ways. A firm’s Web site can be used to

market the firm’s accounting and auditing practice. The Internet

also connects the firm’s global professional staff, making it easier

for staff from all over the world to provide client service on a timely

basis without having to be physically present at the client’s location.

CPAs also use online resources and databases to remain current

on emerging business and standards-setting issues. Examples

include Standard and Poor’s Net Advantage Database and

Goldman Sachs Research Database. These two databases provide

extensive industry-specific information and coverage of companies

that CPAs use on a subscription basis to stay current on industry

developments and to obtain industry data useful for auditing and

consulting.

Internet Problem Solution: CPA Vision Project

2-1 The CPA Vision Project [] is all about helping the “CPA profession stay on top of the change curve.”With input from CPAs across the nation, the CPA Vision process created a comprehensive and integrated vision of the profession’s future.

1. What characteristics and professional services come to mind when

you hear the term CPA? What is your impression of the public’s

stereotype of CPAs?

Answer: Student responses will vary.

2. Fill in the missing words in the following Vision Statement:

Answer:“CPAs are the trusted professionals who enable people and organizations to shape their future. Combining insight with integrity, CPAs deliver value by …

Communicating the total picture with clarity and objectivity,

Translating complex information into critical knowledge,

Anticipating and creating opportunities, and

Designing pathways that transform vision into reality.

3. Briefly describe the eight forces that will impact the profession.

Answer: The eight forces are:

1. Non-CPA Competitors - The number of new, non-CPA

competitors, not bound by the profession's code of standards

and ethics is increasing at an alarming rate.

2. Decline of new CPAs - The number of students and young

people electing to join the CPA profession has dramatically

declined.

3. Technology Displacement - Many of the traditional, essential

skills of CPAs are being replaced by new technologies that

are increasing in number and being rapidly developed, often

from unexpected sources.

4. Borderless World- As the world becomes borderless, the

marketplace is demanding more complex, real-time advice

and services, presenting unlimited opportunities for CPAs to

expand their skills, competencies, and services.

5. Leadership Imperative - Corporations are conducting

business in a world of commerce that is global, technological,

instantaneous, and increasingly virtual. The leadership they

require from both internal and external advisors requires new

insights, new skills, and extraordinary agility.

6. Technological Advances - Technology will continue to

challenge and reshape our lifestyles, work patterns,

educational experiences, and communication styles and

techniques. Technology will rewrite the "rules of business,"

leaving those who will not harness it and effectively integrate

it far behind.

7. Market Value Shifts- The perceived value of some of the

profession's cornerstone services-accounting, auditing, and

tax preparation-is declining in the marketplace.

8. Pressure to Transform Finance from Scorekeeper to

Business Partner - The CPA in business is being challenged

to deliver value to the organization and help create a

sustainable competitive advantage.

4. The CPA Vision Project suggests that “the increasing complexities

of the global environment and the commodity characteristics of

traditional services mandate that the CPA profession migrate up the

economic value chain.” What is meant by “moving up the economic

value chain,”and how are CPAs going to accomplish this? (Hint:

See the “Final Report.”)

Answer: Moving up the economic value chain means moving from

providing low value products and services to providing higher value

products and services (i.e., services that will permit the profession

to thrive in a knowledge-based, global economy). The higher on the

economic value chain, the higher the revenue. “The more a product

or service is refined and defined, the less market value it will have.

For example: tax preparation services have been commoditized

and automated to the point that they can largely be prepared

electronically. Tax form preparation is a Platform 1 service - a

foundation service. The higher economic value of this information

lies in understanding what the foundation service implies-the

“where do we go from here”and the “so whats”of business and

finance. Higher Platform services, such as estate and financial

planning are where higher economic benefits exist for the future of

the profession. Higher Platform services are, and will increasingly

be, the most valued services and functions, and therefore will

command higher fees and salaries. Traditional services are the

foundation from which CPAs can leverage to higher value

services.” The report describes 7 platforms.

Obviously to move up the value chain CPAs need to develop expertise for and market higher value services. For some this may

represent “thinking out of the box.”

(Note: Internet problems address current issues using Internet sources. Because Internet sites are subject to change, Internet problems and solutions are subject to change. Current information on Internet problems is available at ).

浅谈审计资源的整合(一)

浅谈审计资源的整合(一) 【摘要】本文分析了审计组织、审计人员、审计成果、审计技术、审计信息等审计资源的现状和存在问题，并针对存在的问题提出改进措施。 【关键词】审计资源；现状；对策 作为一项社会经济活动，审计资源是制约审计事业发展的关键因素，审计资源的配置也成为审计管理的核心问题。因而，审计组织必须管理好有限的审计资源，使审计资源的配置与审计目标、职能间达到最佳的组合和配比，提高审计效率，提升审计成果、质量和水平，在给定资源的条件下，最大限度地发挥审计职能作用。为此，笔者结合审计实践，谈谈对审计资源整合的一点粗浅认识。 一、审计资源的概念 审计资源是审计工作的基础，指审计活动一切直接或间接所需要的资源，它包括审计人员、审计项目、审计方法、审计手段、审计法规、审计成果、审计信息、审计环境等有形和无形的资源要素，就目前而言，审计资源的内容主要有：审计组织和人力资源；审计信息资源；审计技术资源；审计环境资源。 二、目前内部审计资源配置现状及存在的主要问题 当前，内部审计工作已经进入新的发展时期，但从审计资源的现状及配置利用情况来看，还存在一些问题和不足，主要表现在： （一）审计组织体系配合不得力，审计活动的整体效能没有得到充分发挥 我国的审计组织体系是由国家审计机关、内部审计机构和社会审计组织三种类型的审计组织组成的，三者的共同目标均为加强财政财务管理，维护国家财经秩序，促进廉政建设，提高经济效益，保障国民经济健康发展，共同的目标构成了我国统一的审计体系。但从现实运行情况来看，由于社会审计组织的审计目标基本上与委托者的要求一致，也就是它的审计目标受制于委托者；内部审计机构受部门单位法人管理，审计行为受到企业管理层的限制；而国家审计在很大程度上是违纪审计，是强制性的。三者之间的审计目标、审计内容、审计环境和审计准则各不相同，导致三者之间互不联系，国家审计、内部审计、社会审计组织三挂马车各行其是，不能形成合力，整体监督效应发挥不出来，审计成果不能共享。 （二）审计队伍整体素质和审计人员结构尚待加强 当前，审计人员的配置呈现出知识结构单一、技能素质差距大的特点。精通财务会计知识的人占了大多数，而掌握管理学、计算机、法律、工程学等方面知识的非财经类专业人员则比较缺乏，尤其是既懂审计又精通计算机，既懂审计又熟悉工程专业，既懂审计又善于管理的复合型人才少之又少。而且审计队伍中较大部分人员只能就审计而审计，缺乏宏观分析、综合协调和风险预测的能力，无法在风险评估、经济咨询、提高效益方面发挥应有的作用，审计人员素质和知识结构亟待加强。 （三）审计成果的综合利用有待于提高 内部审计成果最终表现为审计报告、审计工作报告、审计建议书、审计决定、审计调查报告、内部控制报告以及各种比较特殊的审计文书，是外界接受审计信息的直接途径。事实上，许多审计人员虽然精通业务，但由于忙于在审计一线搞业务，没有时间来提炼撰写审计信息，不善于把审计发现的大量微观现象通过综合分析研究，上升到宏观角度来认识和理解，审计成果的综合利用度不高，许多有价值的信息未得到充分挖掘，使审计的整体效果大打折扣。审计成果未被运用的另一个方面原因是有的审计报告太过肤浅，往往就问题说问题，仅仅从财务角度、会计核算角度提示存在的问题，缺少综合性审计报告以及最终审计结果整体分析，往往不能针对带有苗头性、倾向性的问题提出系统而全面的意见和建议，审计结果不能引起领导阶层和其他管理部门的关注，审计成果不被重视，许多审计发现的问题没有及时得到解决，不能真正全面体现出审计的作用。

《审计学》_宋常_人大七版___课后答案

P35 第2章职业道德和审计准则 练习题1. 1)可能影响独立性。ARC审计机构的收费主要来源于XYZ公司，当从某一审计客户收取的费用占全部费用的比重很大，审计机构会对该客户产生依赖并面临担心失去该客户的压力，产生自身利益威胁，审计机构应当评估该威胁的重要性程度，必要时采取防范措施消除威胁或降低至可接受水平。 2)不影响独立性。当审计项目组成员的直系亲属在审计客户中处于重要职位或者可以对财务报表产生重大影响，才会威胁审计独立性，审计人员S的妻子在XYZ公司中只是一名普通的销售人员，不会影响其独立性。 3)可能影响独立性。ARC审计机构租赁XYZ公司的办公楼作为办公场所，二者之间存在租赁的商业关系，且性质较为特殊、金额较大，将会产生自身利益威胁，会计事务所应当评价该威胁重要程度，必要时采取适当防范措施。 4)可能影响独立性。XYZ公司的董事是ARC审计机构的前高级管理人员，当审计机构前任人员担任审计客户重要职务时，分两种情况：若该人员与事务所保持重大联系，则对独立性产生重大威胁，且无防范措施可以消除，；若二者间并未保持重大联系，则应该评价其威胁程度，必要时采取防范措施消除威胁或降低至可接受水平。 5)影响独立性。J的哥哥持有XYZ公司的少量股票，即审计人员直系亲属与审计客户之间存在直接利益关系，会影响其独立性。 6)可能影响独立性。ARC公司与XYZ公司在某项重大会计问题上存在分歧，而正是该分歧导致XYZ公司对前任会计事务所解除委托，因此ARC机构面临着客户解除业务合约的外部压力和威胁，进而产生自身利益威胁。 7)影响独立性。ARC审计机构的合伙人S担任XYZ公司的独立董事，现任合伙人在审计客户中任职高级管理人员，除非该合伙人退出该项目，否则会影响独立性。 8)可能影响独立性。J的女儿自2004年起，一直担任XYZ单位的统计员，当审计项目组成员的直系亲属在审计客户中处于重要职位或者可以对财务报表产生重大影响，会威胁审计独立性，要根据J在项目中的角色、其女儿的职责等具体情况评估威胁的重要程度，必要时采取防范措施。 9)可能影响独立性。S的外甥拥有XYZ的大量股票，审计机构某一成员的近亲在审计客户单位拥有直接经济利益或者重大间接经济利益，会产生自身利益威胁，影响独立性。 练习题2. （1）判断RCP审计机构接受ALM有限责任公司的委托是否恰当，分两种情况来讨论： 1)若XY公司与ALM公司无业务往来和行业竞争关系，RCP审计机构可以接受ALM委托，不影响其独立性； 2)XY公司与ALM公司存在业务往来或行业竞争关系，审计人员Y和ALM有限责任公司之间存在经济利益关系，会产生自身利益威胁，且Y在RCP审计机构任重要职位，对独立性的影响不可消除。 （2）根据第一问的分类，分两种情况： 第一种情况下，可以委派Y进行审计；第二种情况下，不可以。 P51 第3章审计种类与审计方法 练习题 1)注册会计师李明在审计A公司的存货项目时，采用了存货监盘方法，执行了存货监盘中的实质性测试程序（具体程序类别涉及检查记录或文件、检查有形资产）。

Chapter 8 Audit Planning and Analytical Procedures Review Questions 8-1There are three primary benefits from planning audits: it helps the auditor obtain sufficient appropriate evidence for the circumstances, helps keep audit costs reasonable, and helps avoid misunderstandings with the client. 8-2Eight major steps in planning audits are: 1. Accept client and perform initial planning 2. Understand the client’s business and industry 3. Assess client business risk 4. Perform preliminary analytical procedures 5. Set materiality, and assess acceptable audit risk and inherent risk 6. Understand internal control and assess control risk 7. Gather information to assess fraud risks 8. Develop overall audit plan and audit program 8-3The new auditor (successor) is required by SAS 84 (AU 315) to communicate with the predecessor auditor. This enables the successor to obtain information about the client so that he or she may evaluate whether to accept the engagement. Permission must be obtained from the client before communication can be made because of the confidentiality requirement in the Code of Professional Conduct. The predecessor is required to respond to the successor’s request for information; however, the response may be limited to stating that no information will be given. The successor auditor should be wary if the predecessor is reluctant to provide information about the client. 8-4Prior to accepting a client, the auditor should investigate the client. The auditor should evaluate the client’s standing i n the business community, financial stability, and relations with its previous CPA firm. The primary purpose of new client investigation is to ascertain the integrity of the client and the possibility of fraud. The auditor should be especially concerned with the possibility of fraudulent financial reporting since it is difficult to uncover. The auditor does not want to needlessly expose himself or herself to the possibility of a lawsuit for failure to detect such fraud. 8-5SAS 108 requires the auditor to document their understanding of the terms of the engagement with the client in an engagement letter. The engagement letter should include the engagement’s objectives, the responsibilities of the auditor and management, and the engagement’s limitations. An engagement letter is an agreement between the CPA firm and the client concerning the conduct of the audit and related services. It should state what services will be provided, whether any restrictions will be imposed on the auditor’s work, deadlines for co mpleting the audit, and assistance to be provided by client personnel. The engagement letter may also include the auditor’s fees. In

Chapter 1 The Demand for Audit and Other Assurance Services Review Questions 1-1The relationship among audit services, attestation services, and assurance services is reflected in Figure 1-3 on page 13 of the text. An assurance service is an independent professional service to improve the quality of information for decision makers. An attestation service is a form of assurance service in which the CPA firm issues a report about the reliability of an assertion that is the responsibility of another party. Audit services are a form of attestation service in which the auditor expresses a written conclusion about the degree of correspondence between information and established criteria. The most common form of audit service is an audit of historical financial statements, in which the auditor expresses a conclusion as to whether the financial statements are presented in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. An example of an attestation service is a report on the effec tiveness of an entity’s internal control over financial reporting. There are many possible forms of assurance services, including services related to business performance measurement, health care performance, and information system reliability. 1-2 An independent audit is a means of satisfying the need for reliable information on the part of decision makers. Factors of a complex society which contribute to this need are: 1. Remoteness of information a. Owners (stockholders) divorced from management b. Directors not involved in day-to-day operations or decisions c. Dispersion of the business among numerous geographic locations and complex corporate structures 2. Biases and motives of provider a. Information will be biased in favor of the provider when his or her goals are inconsistent with the decision maker's goals. 3. Voluminous data a. Possibly millions of transactions processed daily via sophisticated computerized systems b. Multiple product lines c. Multiple transaction locations 4. Complex exchange transactions a. New and changing business relationships lead to innovative accounting and reporting problems b. Potential impact of transactions not quantifiable, leading to increased disclosures
