Your review of the Annual Report has revealedthe following:(i) The statement of changes in equity includes $4·5 million under a separate heading of ‘miscellaneous item’which is described as ‘other difference not recognized in income’. There is no further reference to thisamount or ‘other difference’ elsewhere in the financial statements. However, the Management Report, whichis required by statute, is not audited. It discloses that ‘changes in shareholders’ equity not recognized inincome includes $4·5 million arising on the revaluation of investment properties’.The notes to the financial statements state that the company has implemented IAS 40 ‘Investment Property’for the first time in the year to 31 March 2005 and also that ‘the adoption of this standard did not have asignificant impact on Hegas’s financial position or its results of operations during 2005’.(ii) The chairman’s statement asserts ‘Hegas has now achieved a position as one of the world’s largestgenerators of hydro-electricity, with a dedicated commitment to accountable ethical professionalism’.

5 You are the audit manager for three clients of Bertie Co, a firm of Chartered Certified Accountants. The financialyear end for each client is 30 September 2007.You are reviewing the audit senior’s proposed audit reports for two clients, Alpha Co and Deema Co.Alpha Co, a listed company, permanently closed several factories in May 2007, with all costs of closure finalised andpaid in August 2007. The factories all produced the same item, which contributed 10% of Alpha Co’s total revenuefor the year ended 30 September 2007 (2006 – 23%). The closure has been discussed accurately and fully in thechairman’s statement and Directors’ Report. However, the closure is not mentioned in the notes to the financialstatements, nor separately disclosed on the financial statements.The audit senior has proposed an unmodified audit opinion for Alpha Co as the matter has been fully addressed inthe chairman’s statement and Directors’ Report.In October 2007 a legal claim was filed against Deema Co, a retailer of toys. The claim is from a customer who slippedon a greasy step outside one of the retail outlets. The matter has been fully disclosed as a material contingent liabilityin the notes to the financial statements, and audit working papers provide sufficient evidence that no provision isnecessary as Deema Co’s lawyers have stated in writing that the likelihood of the claim succeeding is only possible.The amount of the claim is fixed and is adequately covered by cash resources.The audit senior proposes that the audit opinion for Deema Co should not be qualified, but that an emphasis of matterparagraph should be included after the audit opinion to highlight the situation.Hugh Co was incorporated in October 2006, using a bank loan for finance. Revenue for the first year of trading is$750,000, and there are hopes of rapid growth in the next few years. The business retails luxury hand made woodentoys, currently in a single retail outlet. The two directors (who also own all of the shares in Hugh Co) are aware thatdue to the small size of the company, the financial statements do not have to be subject to annual external audit, butthey are unsure whether there would be any benefit in a voluntary audit of the first year financial statements. Thedirectors are also aware that a review of the financial statements could be performed as an alternative to a full audit.Hugh Co currently employs a part-time, part-qualified accountant, Monty Parkes, who has prepared a year endbalance sheet and income statement, and who produces summary management accounts every three months.Required:(a) Evaluate whether the audit senior’s proposed audit report is appropriate, and where you disagree with theproposed report, recommend the amendment necessary to the audit report of:(i) Alpha Co; (6 marks)
You are the manager responsible for performing hot reviews on audit files where there is a potential disagreementbetween your firm and the client regarding a material issue. You are reviewing the going concern section of the auditfile of Dexter Co, a client with considerable cash flow difficulties, and other, less significant operational indicators ofgoing concern problems. The working papers indicate that Dexter Co is currently trying to raise finance to fundoperating cash flows, and state that if the finance is not received, there is significant doubt over the going concernstatus of the company. The working papers conclude that the going concern assumption is appropriate, but it isrecommended that the financial statements should contain a note explaining the cash flow problems faced by thecompany, along with a description of the finance being sought, and an evaluation of the going concern status of thecompany. The directors do not wish to include the note in the financial statements.Required:(b) Consider and comment on the possible reasons why the directors of Dexter Co are reluctant to provide thenote to the financial statements.

One of your audit clients is Tye Co a company providing petrol, aviation fuel and similar oil based products to the government of the country it is based in. Although the company is not listed on any stock exchange, it does follow best practice regarding corporate governance regulations. The audit work for this year is complete, apart from the matter referred to below.As part of Tye Co’s service contract with the government, it is required to hold an emergency inventory reserve of 6,000 barrels of aviation fuel. The inventory is to be used if the supply of aviation fuel is interrupted due to unforeseen events such as natural disaster or terrorist activity.This fuel has in the past been valued at its cost price of $15 a barrel. The current value of aviation fuel is $120 a barrel. Although the audit work is complete, as noted above, the directors of Tye Co have now decided to show the ‘real’ value of this closing inventory in the financial statements by valuing closing inventory of fuel at market value, which does not comply with relevant accounting standards. The draft financial statements of Tye Co currently show a profit of approximately $500,000 with net assets of $170 million.Required:(a) List the audit procedures and actions that you should now take in respect of the above matter. (6 marks)(b) For the purposes of this section assume from part (a) that the directors have agreed to value inventory at$15/barrel.Having investigated the matter in part (a) above, the directors present you with an amended set of financialstatements showing the emergency reserve stated not at 6,000 barrels, but reported as 60,000 barrels. The final financial statements now show a profit following the inclusion of another 54,000 barrels of oil in inventory. When queried about the change from 6,000 to 60,000 barrels of inventory, the finance director stated that this change was made to meet expected amendments to emergency reserve requirements to be published in about six months time. The inventory will be purchased this year, and no liability will be shown in the financial statements for this future purchase. The finance director also pointed out that part of Tye Co’s contract with the government requires Tye Co to disclose an annual profit and that a review of bank loans is due in three months. Finally the finance director stated that if your audit firm qualifies the financial statements in respect of the increase in inventory, they will not be recommended for re-appointment at the annual general meeting. The finance director refuses to amend the financial statements to remove this ‘fictitious’ inventory.Required:(i) State the external auditor’s responsibilities regarding the detection of fraud; (4 marks)(ii) Discuss to which groups the auditors of Tye Co could report the ‘fictitious’ aviation fuel inventory;(6 marks)(iii) Discuss the safeguards that the auditors of Tye Co can use in an attempt to overcome the intimidationthreat from the directors of Tye Co.

You are an audit manager at Rockwell Co, a firm of Chartered Certified Accountants. You are responsible for the audit of the Hopper Group, a listed audit client which supplies ingredients to the food and beverage industry worldwide.The audit work for the year ended 30 June 2015 is nearly complete, and you are reviewing the draft audit report which has been prepared by the audit senior. During the year the Hopper Group purchased a new subsidiary company, Seurat Sweeteners Co, which has expertise in the research and design of sugar alternatives. The draft financial statements of the Hopper Group for the year ended 30 June 2015 recognise profit before tax of $495 million (2014 – $462 million) and total assets of $4,617 million (2014: $4,751 million). An extract from the draft audit report is shown below:Basis of modified opinion (extract)In their calculation of goodwill on the acquisition of the new subsidiary, the directors have failed to recognise consideration which is contingent upon meeting certain development targets. The directors believe that it is unlikely that these targets will be met by the subsidiary company and, therefore, have not recorded the contingent consideration in the cost of the acquisition. They have disclosed this contingent liability fully in the notes to the financial statements. We do not feel that the directors’ treatment of the contingent consideration is correct and, therefore, do not believe that the criteria of the relevant standard have been met. If this is the case, it would be appropriate to adjust the goodwill balance in the statement of financial position.We believe that any required adjustment may materially affect the goodwill balance in the statement of financial position. Therefore, in our opinion, the financial statements do not give a true and fair view of the financial position of the Hopper Group and of the Hopper Group’s financial performance and cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards.Emphasis of Matter ParagraphWe draw attention to the note to the financial statements which describes the uncertainty relating to the contingent consideration described above. The note provides further information necessary to understand the potential implications of the contingency.Required:(a) Critically appraise the draft audit report of the Hopper Group for the year ended 30 June 2015, prepared by the audit senior.Note: You are NOT required to re-draft the extracts from the audit report. (10 marks)(b) The audit of the new subsidiary, Seurat Sweeteners Co, was performed by a different firm of auditors, Fish Associates. During your review of the communication from Fish Associates, you note that they were unable to obtain sufficient appropriate evidence with regard to the breakdown of research expenses. The total of research costs expensed by Seurat Sweeteners Co during the year was $1·2 million. Fish Associates has issued a qualified audit opinion on the financial statements of Seurat Sweeteners Co due to this inability to obtain sufficient appropriate evidence.Required:Comment on the actions which Rockwell Co should take as the auditor of the Hopper Group, and the implications for the auditor’s report on the Hopper Group financial statements. (6 marks)(c) Discuss the quality control procedures which should be carried out by Rockwell Co prior to the audit report on the Hopper Group being issued. (4 marks)
