party about the subject matter information
Assurance engagements

in accordance with GAAP
o GAAP: IFRS, USGAAP, DAS (Dutch accounting standards)
o GAAS: ISAs, COS (controle en overige standarden)
- Reasonable assurance

Economics of auditing. Knechel and Salterio, Chapter 1
Economics of audit demand
- Demand by outside intervention (demand exogenous). Economy and there is government outside of economy that
imposes an audit regulation and mendatory audit.
- Demands arises within the economy (arrives endogenously and is driven by supply and demand)
Endogenous audit demand - Stock market demand
- US-based
- Focus of profitability
- Audit role: valuation (of accounting)
Exogenous audit demand - Statutory audit
- British tradition
- Focus on investment protection
- Audit role: stewardship (efficiency of contracts)
Exogenous audit demand
- Examples:
o Government intervention
o Statutory audit
o Environment agency requires audit of pollution reports
o Ministry of health requires audit of health care declarations by hospitals
o Government grant with condition external audit
Endogenous audit demand
- Agency relation: Principle (shareholder) delegates decision-making to agent (manager)
- Agency theory: Conflicts of interests between two parties due to differences in incentives and reflects information
asymmetry between two parties to a transaction
- Adverse selection: principle cannot observe the quality of the firm
- Moral Hazard: agent actions not observed yet incentivized (work hard / shirk)
- Independent audit: high quality report ‘ensures’ truth about agents' hard work (endogenous)
Agency problems, auditing, and theory of the firm (historical overview). Watts and Zimmerman, 1983, JLE
