Auditing Standards Update & Best Practices 2024
Date: Dec. 5, 2024
Time: 8 – 11:30 a.m. PT
Overview
In every audit, the auditor must identify and assess the risks of material misstatement in the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. This process includes understanding the entity and its environment, including its internal control, thereby providing a basis for designing and implementing responses to the assessed risks of material misstatement. This program explores efficient ways to conduct audits (primarily for private companies), including discussing the applicable standards and their requirements.
