    i notice that some of the questions end with ” in respect of the planning, performance of the audit”

    In this part, does it really matter we consider it’s planning or performance ? because when the questions ask us to comment as per usual isnt ?

    so can we just ignore the last portion whether it’s planning, performance, review, completion ?

    No you cannot disregard where you are in the audit:
    – planning includes identifying the risks of misstatement and planning how to respond to those risks
    – performing is the doing – ToCs, substantive procedures, etc
    – review and completion do pretty much go together – but here you have gathered evidence and now you are assessing whether it is sufficient and appropriate.
    Comments and considerations at each stage are not generic – so you cannot ignore.
