Auditing

  Materiality is a very important consideration in proposing adjusting entries to clients. It is, however, a rather complex calculation and you are not required to calculate materiality for this assignment. However, for purposes of this assignment, you should consider any misstatements of accounts to be material and you should propose an adjusting entry. You should also assume that the client is receptive to the proposed entries and will book them (record them) in a timely manner. Choosing a sample selection is another important consideration when performing tests of details (substantive testing). Materiality typically factors into the calculation for selecting a sample size (and for this assignment you are not calculating materiality). Therefore, for purposes of this assignment, your sampling selection should be such that you have at least 75% coverage of all account balances being tested.
