|
4 | | If the auditor cannot locate a sample item, he or she should: |
| | A) | Replace the item in the sample with another item. |
| | B) | Classify the missing item as a deviation. |
| | C) | Reselect the entire sample and begin examining sample items. |
| | D) | Issue a qualified opinion on the client's financial statements. |
|
|
|
5 | | If the sample rate of deviation is 6.2%, the upper limit rate of deviation is 8%, the tolerable rate of deviation is 7%, and the risk of overreliance is 5%, which of the following statements is not true? |
| | A) | The auditor is unable to rely on internal control is planned. |
| | B) | There is a 95% chance that the true deviation rate is less than or equal to 8%. |

| | D) | There is a 5% chance that the true deviation rate is greater than 8%. |
|
|
|
