Hello Sir,
I would like to know how it is possible to confirm the balances of unpaid invoices is matched to goods dispatched if we did not get sufficient evidence? I relate my question to question 8 of the test.
Thank you
I am not sure what you are asking. The relevant assertion here is existence. So, for example, if the customer is disputing the balance (and that’s why they’re not responding to the confirmation request) you’d expect to find evidence of the dispute in customer correspondence.
Kaplan book page 317 Illustration 3 suggests that the confirmation request is sent by the client on their head paper but the reply should be addressed to the auditor. Why the answer above suggests the auditor being the sending party?
Any external confirmation must be entirely within the control of the auditor – a request may be on the client’s headed paper with the client’s authority (to disclose information to the auditor) but the requests must be sent by the auditor (if left to the client how would the auditor know that their request had been set without amendment?)
I’ve tried it on my tablet with no problems.
All I can suggest it to make sure your screen is maximised and if you see a small arrow pointing up at the top of the question, click on that too.
I am having the same problem.
Hello, I am not able to see explanation/comment when checking test results. For example above question 6, comment is cut after first sentence, it starts with ‘This…’ and nothing else is visible. Am I doing something wrong?
Many thanks,
Regards
