please let me know which answer is better:
Define “going concern”. What are the Auditor responsibilities in regards to Going concern assumption of an entity (5 marks)
the definition i have omitted since thats easy.
A)

ii. if the going concern basis is chosen, the auditor must obtain sufficient appropriate evidence to that end.
iii. if there are material uncertainties towards the going concern, the auditor must ensure that they are adequately disclosed

B)
i. to carry out appropriate audit procedures that will identify whether or not the entity can continue as a going concern
