    I know in AAA you dont write bullet points, but for audit procedures can i just list the procedures, im trying to make paragraphs instead of just a list but thats taking longer and my answers are not clear and to the point.

    in a list im able to say what, how and why without dragging my answer.

    also if a list is ok to do in exam do i need to provide a into or can i just dive in and write the list.

    Don’t confuse “bullets” and “note form” – there is nothing wrong with appropriately used bullets – but you must NEVER write in “note form” (i.e. with so few words that the meaning of the “point” is not clear).

    LOOK at any published answers for guidance – e.g. M20 Answer 1(b)(ii)

    (ii) Audit procedures on sale of property
    – Review board minutes to see if the property sale has been deliberated, i.e. has the rationale for the transaction been discussed, and formally approved by the company’s board.
    – Agree the $50,000 sale price to the legal documentation relating to the sale of the property to the Group CEO.
    – Confirm the carrying amount of the property at the date of disposal to underlying accounting records and the non?current asset register.
