audit evidence and audit procedures (fair value)

Aasdasdasd7y ago
when the question have not adjusted the shares at fair value for the financial instrument (June 2015, question 1, part (c) (i) )and when we write audit evidence, will i get the same marks whether i write number 1 or 2 ? number 1: result of discussion with the management that the financial instrument will be adjusted to recognize the shares at fair value number 2: result of discussion with the management that adjustment has been made in the financial instrument to recognize the shares at fair value i'm afraid whether there is a strict rule that audit evidence is only carried out at the finalization stage therefore marks are only awarded for writing number 2 (so no marks on number 1)

1 is better because the Q says that they are currently included in the financial statements at cost. Generally I don't think the marker will be so strict as either point conveys discussion with management as a source of audit evidence and that the shares should be recognised at fair value.
