Dear Ken,
Could you please help to understand below statement:
ACCA suggests that the lead partner should be changed at least every 5 years and other partners at least after 7 years.
Could you please give an example of lead partner and one example of other partners?
Thanks
Gabriella

February 20, 2017 at 4:46 pm #373391Dear Sir,
With self interest threat concerning employment with an audit team :
Cooling off periods are required
Subsequent to the partner ceasing to be a key audit partner the public interest entity had issued financial statments covering a period of not less than 12 months. Can you please explain this further For me? I don’t quite understand.
Thank you greatly.February 21, 2017 at 4:38 am #373433No. What you have written does not make sense,to me.
For F8 all you need to remember is,the cooling off period.
