Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements due to fraud; Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the assessed risks of material misstatement due to fraud, through designing and implementing appropriate responses; and Respond appropriately to fraud or suspected fraud identified during the audit. 5

7 PCAOB Standard Changes PCAOB Auditing Standard No. 18 Related Parties and Other Amendments Significant Unusual Transactions Transactions with Executive Officers 7
8 What drove the changes? RPs, SUTs, and EO transactions/relationships: Contributing factors in numerous financial reporting frauds over the last several decades. Recent History Prominent corporate scandals served to undermine investor confidence; resulted in significant losses for investors and loss of many jobs. RP transactions specifically have been used to engage in fraudulent financial reporting and to conceal misappropriation of assets. 8
9 What drove the changes? Important to step back and identify areas where management may have incentive or opportunity to manipulate the financial statements. These areas may not have strong processes and controls in place at all entities. The Need to Identify Red Flags RP transactions and SUTs are ripe areas where manipulation could be at play. Apparent lack of business purpose or difficult substance over form questions; potential heightened risk of fraud. Understanding terms of executive compensation arrangements critical to understanding where top management may have incentive to manipulate accounts. 9
10 Key audit procedures required by AS18 Key Audit Procedures Required by AS 18 Performing risk assessment procedures to obtain an understanding of the company's relationships and transactions with its related parties: Obtaining an understanding of the company's process New or Expanded Requirement Expanded Expanded Performing inquiries of: o Management Expanded o Others within the company New o Audit committee or its chair New Communicating with the audit engagement team and other auditors Identifying and assessing risks of material misstatement Expanded Responding to the risks of material misstatement Expanded Evaluating whether the company has properly identified its related parties and relationships and transactions with related parties Expanded Evaluating financial statement accounting and disclosures Expanded Communications with the audit committee Expanded New 10

AU Section 316: Requirement that when identifying significant unusual transactions, auditors take into account other work performed during the audit (e.g., information gathered with respect to related-party transactions). Basic required procedures for obtaining information for evaluating significant unusual transactions and more in-depth procedures designed to be scalable and commensurate with the facts and circumstances of the audit.

New or Expanded Requirement New 12
13 The importance of professional skepticism The inspection results indicate that the Firm, in certain instances, relied heavily on evidence that supported the issuer's conclusion, without sufficiently taking into account new or contrary evidence that was available to the Firm at the time of the audit. This tendency frequently contributed to the concerns noted in prior inspection reports related to a lack of professional skepticism and deficiencies in auditing estimates.

14 The importance of professional skepticism Remarks at the AICPA Conference on Current SEC and PCAOB Developments Professional skepticism is an attitude that includes a questioning mind and a critical assessment of audit evidence. 14
15 The importance of professional skepticism Remarks at the AICPA Conference on Current SEC and PCAOB Developments In exercising professional skepticism, the auditor should not be satisfied with less than persuasive evidence because of a belief that management is honest. I must respectfully disagree with the notion mentioned by a speaker yesterday that professional skepticism calls for a "trust but verify" approach. 15
16 The importance of professional skepticism Remarks at the AICPA Conference on Current SEC and PCAOB Developments Focus on extraordinary "audit quality", not extraordinary client service. When your auditor questions your assertions, he or she is not being difficult. They're just doing their job. 16
17 Worst Accounting Scandals of All Time 1. AIG 2. Bernie Madoff 3. Enron 4. Freddie Mac 5. Health South 6. Lehman Brothers 7. Tyco 8. Waste Management 9. WorldCom 10. Satyam 17
