    Dear Mike,

    I found a huge difference between the requirement and acca answer. The requirement is as “Discuss the benefits of independent assurance being provided on the key performance indicators included in the integrated report of Mooswood Hospital ltd to the company’s management and to external users of the report” for 4 marks.

    But the answer provided is just the definition of Performance audit and audit of performance information.

    I am not convinced with the answer. Please advise.

    Reference: March/June 2017 – Question 3b(i).

    Thank you!

    Please check your reference!

    According to my check, this is question 3b from the March / June 2017 hybrid exam!

    (b) Explain the difference between a ‘performance audit’ and an ‘audit of performance information.’ (3 marks)

    Hi Mike,

    I just checked on the ACCA website and you are right, the requirement is different.

    I am sure that I printed the question from ACCA site but a few months ago. I am not sure but this might be the reason.

    I have now again printed.

    Thank you for checking for me!
