    Yes, adjusted/non-adjusted events. That’s really the main issue.

    I haven’t counted up but recent exams are available on the ACCA web-site for you to have a look at. Note we don’t know what comes up in the MCQ section. My guess is that this is regularly tested

    Going concern is part of the syllabus. Full details are shown on p11, here:

    Enquire from directors
    Obtain representations from directors
    Inspect board minutes
    Inspect correspondence with legal advisors
    Inspect after period receipts and payments and invoices
    Inspect sales prices of inventory
    Review early results and compare to budget

    thanks for your answers
    so basically is it like this we have to write the answers for subsequent events just like we write answers for substantive procedures answers ?

    for example :
    ( Obtain a schedule showing the damaged property, plant and equipment and agree the net book value to the non-current
    assets register to confirm the total value of affected assets. )

    Yes. Subsequent events need evidence for their existence/non-existence etc. just like any other potential amount or detail in the FS.

    thank you so much for your answers
    as you have mentioned the procedures over here

    Enquire from directors
    Obtain representations from directors
    Inspect board minutes
    Inspect correspondence with legal advisors
    Inspect after period receipts and payments and invoices
    Inspect sales prices of inventory
    Review early results and compare to budget

    do we have to write it in that ( substantive format to prove existence? completeness?.. or we can just put these procedures in the answer booklet ?

    The examiner wants you to explain the purpose of each test (though that is not always done in the model answers).
