ANNEXURE 1: AUDITORS REPORT
ACNABIN
• Chartered Accountants
Auditor's Report
We have audited the accompanying consolidated financial statements of Gono Sakkhorata Obhijan
[campaign for popular Education (CAMPE)] which comprise the Consolidated Balance Sheet as of
31 December 2014, Consolidated Statements of Income and Expenditure and Receipts and
Payments for the year then ended and a summary of significant accounting policies and other
explanatory information.
Management is responsible for the preparation of the consolidated financial statements that give a
true and fair view in accordance with Bangladesh Financial Reporting Standards and for such
internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of financial
statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the financial statements based on our audit. We
conducted our audit in accordance with Bangladesh Standards on Auditing. Those standards
require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free from material
misstatement.
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and
disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor's judgment
including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements,
whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal
control relevant to the entity's preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in
order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the
purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity's internal control. An audit also
includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of
accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the
financial statements.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a
basis for our audit opinion.
