Assignment 1

STEP 1
Open the Microsoft word and select a blank word processing
response area. It should look like this:

STEP 2
Type the following paragraphs into the word
processing sheet: Auditor’s risk and its
components
Auditor’s risk is the risk that the auditor expresses an inappropriate
audit opinion when the financial statements are materially misstated.
Auditor’s risk is a function of two main components being; the risks
of material misstatement and detection risk.
Detection is the risk that the procedures performed by the auditor to
reduce auditor’s risk to an acceptably low level will not detect a
misstatement which exists and which could be material, either
individually or when aggregated with other misstatements. Detection
risk is affected by sampling and non-sampling risk.
Risk of material misstatement is made up of two components;
inherent risk and control risk. Inherent risk is the susceptibility of an
assertion about a class of transaction, account balance or disclosure
to a misstatement which could be material, either individually or
when aggregated with other misstatements, before consideration of
any related controls. Control risk is the risk that a misstatement
which could occur in an assertion about a class of transaction,
account balance or disclosure and which could be material, either
individually or when aggregated with other misstatements, will not
be prevented, or detected and corrected, on a timely basis by the
entity’s internal control.
Step 3
FORMATTING EXERCISE
Let’s do some formatting to improve the layout and content of the answer. If
you are accustomed to using word processing packages have a go at making
the following amendments. Otherwise step by step instructions are detailed
below.

You are required to carry out the following amendments:


1 Format the heading ‘Auditor’s Risk and its components’ to
paragraph style ‘Heading 4’ and center the heading
2 Using cut and paste, move paragraph two to the end of the document
3 Insert a heading above paragraph two – Risks of Material
Misstatement – and make the heading bold and center
4 Insert a heading above paragraph three – Detection Risk – and
make the heading bold and center
5 Insert bullet points to create a numbered list against risk of
material misstatement and inherent risk in the first paragraph
6 Audit risk has been incorrectly referred to as auditor’s risk
throughout, perform a ‘find and replace’ to correct this error
