Knowledge-Based Audit Procedures, 2011 [With CDROM]

Designed specifically to help practitioners prevail in the current climate of intense scrutiny, Knowledge-Based Audit Procedures presents the conservative and effective approach needed to conduct a higher-quality audit of nonpublic commercial entities. Practical discussion and consideration of the day-to-day management of audit engagements enhance the quality of the auditor's practice while easy-to-read and easy-to-understand advice, procedures, and practice aids enable practitioners to put official pronouncements into action immediately. Based on the AICPA's Auditing Standards Board's risk assessment standards, the 2011 Edition features the latest audit tools and includes current information on the ASB's Clarity Project, which aims to clarify U.S. GAAS and converge them with international auditing standards.
