    Hi,

    When in exam question examiner asks for audit evidence :

    : (i) Describe FIVE types of procedures for obtaining audit evidence; and
    (ii) For each type of procedure, describe an example relevant to the audit of BANK
    balances.

    Since he didn’t specify substantive procedures, i can us both substantive or test of controls to answer the question?

    For example, examiners answer for inspection:
    Inspect the bank reconciliation for any outstanding lodgements and agree to the pre year-end cash book, post year-end bank statement and also to paying-in-book pre year end.

    if i write; Inspect the YE bank reconciliation for signature to confirm that it has been carried out and reviewed.

    Will i get a mark

    I think that is ok as audit procedures cover both tests of control and substantive tests.

    So the procedure types are the A E I O U list. Inspecting the bank rec for authorisation mudt be ok.

    You should get a mark for what you said.
