Describe the purposes of audit documentation and explain why each purpose is important.
What will be an ideal response?
Properly prepared audit documentation should provide 1) a basis for planning the audit, 2) a record of
evidence collected and results of tests, 3) a basis for determining the appropriate audit report and 4)
a basis for review by supervisors of the work performed. Achievement of these four purposes aids the
auditor in providing reasonable assurance that the audit was conducted in accordance with the auditing
standards.
