Information about different types of Audit?
I'm trying to gather material to write a 2,500 word report on the following different types of audit:
-Financial Statement Audit
-Internal Control Effectiveness
-Compliance
-Value for Money
-Environmental
-Internal
-Forensic
I am finding it hard to find on line materials for those types of audit. It has to be the International Standards of Auditing (ISA) format.
Any help would be great
Thanks!
I also have to discuss the benefits of all the aforementioned audit types.
So have an intro and conclusion, and then 7 different parts to write about roughly speaking, so 300 words per heading. This is easily doable, but depends on the depth you're going into.
Definitions:
Financial Statement Audit - your standard audit, to check the balances are correct in the FS. Checking completeness, accuracy, allocation, cut-off, rights and obligations, and so on.
Internal Control Effectiveness - testing the controls an organisation has in place. Internal audit perform these roles in general. Example, two signatures on a cheque payment (authorisation)
Compliance - in line with regulations.
VFM -?
Environmental - companies or organisations where compliance with Enviro issues are important.
Internal - very specific to requirements of org.
Forensic - not 100% sure.
Not sure if this helps, but might get you started. Not sure on online resources as this is quite vague, maybe wikipedia?
cheers
