Hi everyone,
I have a question regarding the substantive procedures for PPE and non-current assets in general.
I understand that assessing if the revaluation of an asset was made in accordance with IAS 16 is a substantive procedure to ensure that the valuation was done properly. The question I want to ask is if the same thing can be stated regarding compliance with IAS 36 – Impairment of Assets.
Would an assessment of Impairment on Assets based on IAS 36 consist a substantive procedure? I believe that if not assessed, this could give a false figure in terms of the valuation of the assets.
Can someone please advise?
Thank you very much.

The audit of impaired PPE is therefore not examinable in F8.
