    is the cut off means e.g. there is a sale of 500 and it “claims” or “states” that sepparation exists between what small small figures make up the whole figure of 500.??

    Cut-off is making sure revenue and expenses are recognised in the right period. It also means ensuring that if an item is included in closing inventory, then it has also bee recognised in purchases but not recognised in sales ie that its treatment is consistent.

    for example, according to accruals basis, sales should be recognised when a product is shipped/service provided and expenses when theyre incurred. It checks that it is done properly, right? or not exactly?

    First question: the auditor.

    Second question: yes – at the interim audit so that tests of procedures can also be carried out then.

    Eg, has someone evidenced the arithmetic check by stamping the document something like ‘Calculations checked’.
