    If an external auditor in the process of considering the company’s financial statements came across an incident of fraud that took place in the year, he/she must
    a- qualify the accounts regardless of the size of the fraud
    b- report to the shareholders by the way of a note to the accounts, regardless of the size of the fraud
    c- qualify the accounts only if the fraud is material and not properly recorded in the accounts
    d- report to the shareholders by a note to accounts, but only if fraud is material

    why is the correct ans C? why would the auditor qualify the accounts if there is a fraud?

    For audit qualifications to occur, the misstatement has to be material. Here is it has not been properly recorded in the FS so they are materially wrong.
