    Hello,

    Whether a substantive test can give evidence for more than 1 assertion?

    For example, apart from Existence, does this test ” undertaking a receivables circularisation” also give evidence for Rights and Obligations?

    Yes, one test can give evidence supporting more than one assertion. Your example also provides evidence about accuracy.

    Similarly, inspecting non-current assets can give evidence for existence and (provided you look for it) valuation – is the asset obviously not used and little more than scrap?

    Remember to specify the assertions being dealt with.
