    I am a bit confused when planning answers for matters to consider vs risk of material misstatement. My answer plan to both seems to be the same.

    – Materiality calculations
    – Whether a particular FS item has been over/understated
    – What should have been the proper accounting treatment
    – Impact on the audit report

    I’m not sure that they are necessarily mutually exclusive! When faced with a “matters to consider” question all of your 4 planned points would likely be relevant.

    But presumably these are relevant exactly because the “problem” that has caused you to consider matters is one that could potentially represent a risk of material misstatement

    Do you have any particular past exam question in mind that I could look at?
