10 Risk Factors Related to Fraudulent Financial Reporting Management s characteristics and influence Industry conditions Operating characteristics and financial stability 4-10
11 Fraud Risk Factors: Management s Characteristics and Influence Management has a motivation to engage in fraudulent reporting. Management decisions are dominated by an individual or a small group. Management fails to display an appropriate attitude about internal control. Managers attitudes are very aggressive toward financial reporting. Managers place too much emphasis on earnings projections. 4-11
12 Fraud Risk Factors: Management s Characteristics and Influence (cont.) Nonfinancial management participates excessively in the selection of accounting principles or determination of estimates. The company has a high turnover of senior management. The company has a known history of violations. Managers and employees tend to be evasive when responding to auditors inquiries. Managers engage in frequent disputes with auditors 4-12
13 Fraud Risk Factors: Industry conditions Company profits lag the industry. New requirements are passed that could impair stability or profitability. The company s market is saturated due to fierce competition. The company s industry is declining. The company s industry is changing rapidly. 4-13
14 Fraud Risk Factors: Operating Characteristics A weak internal control environment prevails. The company is not able to generate sufficient cash flows to ensure that it is a going concern. There is pressure to obtain capital. The company operates in a tax haven jurisdiction. The company has many difficult accounting measurement and presentation issues. The company has significant transactions or balances that are difficult to audit. The company has significant and unusual relatedparty transactions. Company accounting personnel are lax or inexperienced in their duties. 4-14
15 The AUDIT RISK MODEL (ARM) Audit risk (AR) is the risk (likelihood) that the auditor may unknowingly fail to modify the opinion on financial statements that are materially misstated (e.g., an unqualified opinion on misstated financial statements.) The AUDIT RISK MODEL decomposes overall audit risk into three components: inherent risk (IR), control risk (CR), and detection risk (DR): AR = IR x CR x DR (IR x CR = Risk of Material Misstatement (RMM)) 4-15
16 Inherent Risk Factors affecting account inherent risk include: Dollar size of the account Liquidity Volume of transactions Complexity of the transactions New accounting pronouncements Subjective estimates 4-16
17 Control Risk Control Risk (CR) is the likelihood that a material misstatement would not be caught by the client s internal controls. Factors affecting control risk include: The environment in which the company operates (its control environment ). The existence (or lack thereof) and effectiveness of control activities. Monitoring activities (audit committee, internal audit function, etc.). 4-17
18 Detection Risk Detection risk (DR) is the risk that a material misstatement would not be caught by audit procedures. Factors affecting detection risk include: Nature, timing, and extent of audit procedures Sampling risk Risk of choosing an unrepresentative sample. Nonsampling risk Risk that the auditor may reach inappropriate conclusions based upon available evidence 4-18
19 Detection Risk and the Nature, Timing, and Extent Nature Timing of Audit Procedures Lower Detection Risk More effective tests. Testing performed at year-end. Higher Detection Risk Less effective tests. Testing can be performed at Interim. Extent More tests. Fewer tests. 4-19

What legitimate reasons are there for these results? Cash flow analysis 4-25
26 Analytic Procedure Steps 1. Develop an expectation. 2. Define a significant difference. 3. Calculate predictions and compare them with the recorded amount. 4. Investigate significant differences. 5. Document each of the above steps. 4-26
27 Analytic Procedures: Stages of Use Preliminary planning-- required Substantive testing -- optional Final review -- required 4-27

Results from substantive of final review stage analytical procedures. Vague, implausible or inconsistent responses to inquiries. 4-33
34 Communicate Fraud Matters Evidence that fraud may exist must be communicated to appropriate level of management. Sarbanes Oxley: Significant deficiencies must be communicated to those charged with governance. Any fraud committed by management (no matter how small) is material. 4-34
35 Document Fraud Matters Discussion of engagement personnel. Procedures to identify and assess risk. Specific risks identified and auditor response. If revenue recognition not a risk explain why. Results of procedures regarding management override. Other conditions causing auditors to believe additional procedures are required. Communication to management, audit committee, etc. 4-35

Auditor s responsibility--design procedures to provide reasonable assurance Indirect-effect noncompliance are not related to specific accounts or disclosures on the financial statements (e.g., violations relating to insider securities trading, occupational health and safety, food and drug administration, environmental protection, and equal employment opportunity). Auditor's responsibility Follow up on suspected violations material to the financial statements 4-36
37 Red Flags of Potential Noncompliance Unauthorized transactions. Government investigations. Regulatory reports of violations. Payments to consultants, affiliates, or employees for unspecified services. Excessive sales commissions and agents fees. Unusually large cash payments. Unexplained payments to government officials.
