Expanded role for Internal Audit
The role of Internal Auditor in financial auditing is not to attest to the fairness of presentation
of financial statements but it should still focus on the evaluation of the internal controls over
financial reporting. When Internal Audit began looking at financial issues in late 2001 and early
2002, two of its first audits (Wireless bad debt reserves and capital expenditures) found serious
problems. If the internal audit also focused on the internal control over the accounting process
from the very beginning, they could have prevented or at least detected the fraud earlier.
