Forums › Ask ACCA Tutor Forums › Ask the Tutor ACCA AA Exams › Audit procedures opening balance, Dec 2013 q:5a
Dear Tutor,
with regard to audit procedures to confirm opening balances would an acceptable answer be:
– Discuss with management which internal controls are in place in order to detect, prevent and correct errors in opening balances.
Or is this answer more appropriate for a test of control?
I think that is more appropriate as a test of control: you are discussing internal controls with management.
The easiest way to audit opening balances is to compare all account balances from closing to opening.
Thank you for your quick reply.
