    Yh I noticed that note in the account after I finished writing that the asset held for sale was correct but the audit risk was that the result of it was included in revenue and so it should be deducted from operating profit so that materiality should be calculated on the adjusted profit before tax. This means my materiality calculation was incorrect too. I am so disappointed in myself for not noticing that note first. When I noticed it was too late.

    Yes materiality based on revenue.

    I thought it was identity significant risks of material misstatement though, not audit, so I’ve really messed up 🙁

    I’m still so confused. I did it as revenue so 5-10% but nothing was meeting the threshold. Did I go completely wrong?!?

    I had the same exam on boat Q1
    Q2 TCWG
    Q3 KAM and audit committee selecting the external auditor.

    Probably a fail again. I spent too much time on Q1 and barely finish Q3.

    How did you recognise the engineer for the joint arrangement?

    Yes you did because I initially did the same.
    It’s 0.5-1% of revenue for materiality isn’t it.
    I wouldn’t worry though as surely you’ll only get penalised once for that? Own figure rule
