AUDIT’S TASK

1. What kind of documents should be obtained by the auditor as evidence of client’s


governance?
The important governance information to be gathered from the client includes:
 Legal Letter
Is a primary procedure that auditors rely on for discovering litigation, claims and
assessments that affect the client is a letter from the client’s legal counsel. Auditors
analyze client legal expense for the present year and sometimes the prior years. The
auditor requires that the client send a standard attorney letter to every legal adviser.
The letter goes to both outside counsel (independent law firms) and inside general
counsel (lawyers that are employees of the client).

 Management Representation Letter


During the course of an audit, management makes many representations to the
auditor, either unsolicited or in response to specific inquiries. When these
representations relate to matters that are material to the financial statements, the
auditor must seek corroborative audit evidence, evaluate whether the
representations made by management appear reasonable and consistent with other
audit evidence, and consider whether the individuals making the representations
are competent to do.

 Contingent Liabilities & Commitments


Audit procedures that test for contingencies are not just done in the last days of the
audit, but from the beginning. Income tax disputes, investigations by government or
industry authorities, and the amount of unused bank lines of credit are generally
known from the start of the audit. Procedures such as reviews of contracts,
correspondence, credit agreements and inquiries of management should point out
possible contingencies.

 Related Parties Transaction


Is a transfer of resources or obligations between related parties, regardless of
whether a price is charged. Two aspects of related party transactions of which an
auditor must be aware is adequate disclosure of related party transactions and the
possibility that the existence of related parties increases the risk of management
fraud.

2. Explain the similarities and differences between contingency and commitment!


 Contingent liability is a potential future obligation to an outside party for an
unknown amount resulting from the outcome of a past event. Commitments are
agreements that the entity will hold to a fixed set of conditions, such as the
purchase or sale of merchandise at a stated price, at a future date, regardless of
what happens to profits or to the economy as a whole
 The similarities from both of them is that they are future based and dependent in
nature. The major difference between commitments and contingencies is
commitment is the certain obligation non fulfillment of which results into a penalty.
And contingency is the uncertain event which may or may not become the
obligation for the organization.

3. Explain the definition of “subsequent events” and provide a real example from Indonesian
news (write the source).
Subsequent events are transactions and other pertinent events that occurred after the
balance sheet date and which affect the fair presentation or disclosure of the statements

extremely challenging business environment for Airlines globally. The COVID-19 pandemic
has severely hit Company’s operational and financial condition. Considering the challenging
situation of COVID-19 pandemic, the Company has been proposing principal and interest
