Hi
From my studies I understand there are separate rules for listed companies in comparison to non listed companies.
Could you please confirm a few questions I have:
- When is an auditor allowed to carry out non-audit work, for example valuation services on a pension plan? (when its immaterial and insignificant?!)
- Am I correct in stating that an audit firm cannot prepare financial statements for listed companies unless there is an emergency?
Just a few things have confused me slightly and I wanted to get it right!
Thank you
Jemma
Ask the Tutor ACCA AAA
Listed Entities
"When is an auditor allowed to carry out non-audit work, for example valuation services on a pension plan? (when its immaterial and insignificant?!)" - yes, and ideally will have audit committee approval
"Am I correct in stating that an audit firm cannot prepare financial statements for listed companies unless there is an emergency?" - yes - threat of self-review
Thanks for your help :0)
You're welcome
