a ii) the requirement asks for the matters to be considered in assessing the Reliance which can be placed on the work of an auditors expert.
Will these points be correct?
Consideration of the previous work done by the auditor’s expert in order to evaluate his specialist skills in the investment evaluation area.
Enquiring to the references made by the auditor expert such as the previous employer in order to assess the reliability of the his work and to get assured about his genuinity.
How many marks?
‘genuinity’ – that’s a new one – I quite like it! Although probably ‘authenticity’ would be better
Other matters could include:
any publications by the expert
whether listed as an expert by the profession to which (s)he belongs
reputation
our own previous experiences of this expert
from where have we arrived at this person?
other firms that have used her / him in the past
personal recommendation
advertisement
trade / professional magazine
local university
professional association
but, yes, your two points are both potentially valid, dependent upon the precise wording of the question and, of course, the number of marks available in that question
OK?
