Book Description
Audits provide essential accountability and transparency over government programs. Given the current challenges facing governments and their programs, the oversight provided through auditing is more critical than ever. Government auditing provides the objective analysis and information needed to make the decisions necessary to help create a better future. The professional standards presented in this 2018 revision of Government Auditing Standards (known as the Yellow Book) provide a framework for performing high-quality audit work with competence, integrity, objectivity, and independence to provide accountability and to help improve government operations and services. These standards, commonly referred to as generally accepted government auditing standards (GAGAS), provide the foundation for government auditors to lead by example in the areas of independence, transparency, accountability, and quality through the audit process. This revision contains major changes from, and supersedes, the 2011 revision.

Book Description
This book is a tool that students, faculty, and practitioners can use to better understand the relationship between US PCAOB auditing standards and IFAC IAASB auditing standards. With time, the designations of US PCAOB standards were reorganized from the initial publication of this book. Accordingly, we have added to this addition an Appendix, Appendix 1. It shows the correlation of the old designation of PCAOB auditing standards, before reorganization, and the new designations for these standards. We also have added a second appendix, Appendix 2. The latter presents the PCAOB standards, the related AICPA standards, and the IFAC IAASB standards. We suggest bookmarking the Appendices and referring back to them as you use the text.

Book Description
As a result of its Clarity Project, the Auditing Standards Board (ASB) has issued Statement on Auditing Standards (SAS) No. 126, The Auditor's Consideration of an Entity's Ability to Continue as a Going Concern (Redrafted), to supersede SAS No. 59, The Auditor's Consideration of an Entity's Ability to Continue as a Going Concern, as amended (AICPA, Professional Standards, AU sec. 341 and AU-C sec. 570). SAS No. 126 does not change or expand SAS No. 59, as amended, in any significant respect. The ASB has moved forward with the clarity redraft of SAS No. 59, as amended, so that it is consistent with the format of the other clarified SASs that were recently issued as SASs No. 122, Statements on Auditing Standards: Clarification and Recodification, No. 124, Financial Statements Prepared in Accordance With a Financial Reporting Framework Generally Accepted in Another Country, and No. 125,Alert That Restricts the Use of the Auditor’s Written Communication. However, the ASB decided to delay convergence with International Standard on Auditing 570, Going Concern, pending the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (FASB) anticipated development of accounting guidance addressing going concern. FASB issued an exposure draft, Going Concern, in October 2008, but based on recent decisions, FASB has divided the project into two separate and distinct phases. As a result, FASB projects to issue an exposure draft that addresses Phase 1, “The Liquidation Basis of Accounting,” in the second quarter of 2012, and to reissue an exposure draft that addresses Phase II, “Going Concern,” in the fourth quarter of 2012. SAS No. 126 addresses the auditor’s responsibilities in an audit of financial statements with respect to evaluating whether there is substantial doubt about the entity's ability to continue as a going concern. This SAS applies to all audits of financial statements regardless of whether the financial statements are prepared in accordance with a general purpose or a special purpose framework1. This SAS does not apply to an audit of financial statements based on the assumption of liquidation (for example, when [a] an entity is in the process of liquidation, [b] the owners have decided to commence dissolution or liquidation, or [c] legal proceedings, including bankruptcy, have reached a point at which dissolution or liquidation is probable).2

External Audit Arrangements at Central Banks
Author: Mr.Atilla ArdaPublisher: International Monetary Fund
ISBN: 1484375505
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 42
Book Description
This paper takes stock of external audit arrangements at central banks. Its focus is on the annual audit of central bank financial statements, as well as legal and institutional measures that support audit quality and independence. The paper outlines good practices in these areas and provides a summary of actual practices observed based on a review of audited financial statements and central bank legislation. While the audit frameworks for central banks differ depending on their legal and institutional circumstances, central banks’ external audits increasingly follow international standards. Most of them are audited by auditors with international affiliations and embrace modern governance structures that provide for audit oversight. However, the paper also notes that a sizeable number of central banks do not publish the audit results in a timely manner, which leaves room for improvement in transparency practices.
