sir one final question before the exam , placement of other matter para and emphasis of matter para will be before KAM Or after KAM
December 4, 2016 at 9:08 pm #353847I believe that the positioning of an EOM is variable – I don’t think that its position relative to KAM is prescribed
December 5, 2016 at 6:10 am #353899Sir (why the matter) is a KAM please give any guidance…
December 5, 2016 at 6:12 am #353900And how the matter to be addressed
December 5, 2016 at 7:10 am #353908This is the definition of a KAM:
“Key Audit Matters (KAM) are defined as those matters that, in the auditor’s professional judgement, were of most significance in the audit of the financial statements of the current period.”
How is it to be addressed? I’m not sure what question you’re asking here but surely a KAM is, as per the definition, a matter of great significance in the audit of this year’s financial statements
The auditor will always bring KAMs to the attention of the non-executive directors on the audit committee (or those charged with governance)
Is that ok?
