complete solution
What could be difficult to determine because electronic evidence may not be
retrievable after a specific period?
The timing of control and substantive tests
The management of Cain Compant, a nonissuer, engaged Bell, CPA, to audit
Cain's internal control. Bell's report described several material weaknesses and
potential errors and irregularities that could occur. Subsequently, management
included Bell's report in its annual report to the Board of Directors with a
statement that the cost of correcting the weaknesses would exceed the benefits.
Bell should:
Disclaim an opinion as to management's cost-benefit statement
A letter issued on significant deficiencies relating to an entity's internal control
observed during an audit of the financial statements of a non-issuer should
include a:
restriction on the use of the report
also:
-indicate that the purpose of the audit was not to provide assurance on internal control
-include the definition of significant deficiencies

concerning the completeness assertion for purchases?

whether it was adequately performed and to evaluate whether the:

Reporting on internal control to meet the requirements of Government Auditing
Standards differs from reporting under other generally accepted auditing
standards in that Government Auditing Standards requires a:
