An audit opnion with emphasis of matter … is it a modified report but not qualified opnion?
From my understanding, it’s a Modified Report but a unqualfied opinion
When an auditor gives his report, there’s 2 type of report.
1) Shows true and fair or Fair presetantion of company finanical position. No ‘if’s’ or but’s
Unmodified Report
2) Any if, buts, or
Modified Report
From Modified Report, the auditor can give an un-modified opinion i.e. The FS shows a true and fair view (so it is true and fair), BUT should draw attention to extract or disclouse XYZ
Or a modified opinion where there’s either material misstatement or no sufficient evidence to draw an opinion and base on the whether they are material and/or pervasive, you get Qualified/Adverse or Disclamier of opinion
Hope it helps
It helps very much. Thank you so much. I understood now.
it means that ‘Except for the following misstatement’
the financial statements show a true and fair view
