Next classes + Interim exam results
Dear Students
I have heard that there might be a strike involving public transportation in Rome on Friday 18 October. We will still have classes on that day, but I have changed a bit the topics that we will discuss, so that you will not miss the audit simulation in case you will not be able to get to the Uni.
Thurs 17 Oct: Guest speaker, Mr. Andrea Tirasso - Internal Controls + we keep going on Substantive Procedures
Fri 18 Oct: We close on Substantive procedures and we start on Completion and Review
Thurs 24 Oct: Audit Simulation
Fri 25 Oct: Audit report and wrap up of the course + Q&A
The interim exam results will be communicated on Thurs 17 Oct. If you wish to go through your exam with me, I would be more than happy to do so on Thurs 17 Oct or Thurs 24 Oct after class in the office of Prof. Brunelli. Please send me an email if you are interested, so that I can get organized.
Regards
Prof. Meriggio
Preparation for the interim exam
Dear students
I have uploaded the slide deck related to everything that we have done around audit risk and that will be part of the interim exam on 10 October.
The file is named "RISK for exam" and it is in the Slides section. Materiality will not be part of the exam.
As reminder, the exam will be based on a case study similar to Case Study 2. In brief you will have to work on analytical procedures, understanding your client and identifying and responding to audit risks.
I am not looking for definitions, I am looking for you to show me that you can approach a scenario, understand it and come up with your own view in terms of what the audit risks are and how you can mitigate them. There is no right or wrong answer, as long as you explain why you got to that audit risk and mitigation plan.
See you on Thursday!
Prof. Meriggio
Preparation for tomorrow
Guys
I have added the following:
- Solution to Case study 2 and Patisserie Valerie
- Additional resources 10 about the Patisserie Valerie case study
Please go through this and we will discuss tomorrow in class.
See you tomo!
