    Hello Sir,

    I get confused when answering evidence and audit procedures because they look similar. How do i tell which is which? Please highlight to me on this one.

    Thank you.

    Procedures start with a verb

    Evidence starts with a noun

    Procedures directly involve an action (confirm, discuss, ascertain, inspect, review, recalculate ….)

    Evidence is something physical (a schedule, a written confirmation, an invoice, a copy of directors’ board minutes, a written summary of a telephone conversation, written representations from management, a copy of a licence or lease …)

    OK?

    Without the negative, that would be an example of a procedure (but one hopefully that you will avoid)
