SUMMARY:(LIAA40/27) Sampling - Avoiding Common Mistakes on Financial Statement and Compliance Audits
DESCRIPTION:Event Description\nSampling is an important method for determining the extent of testing controls\, testing compliance\, and tests of substantive details.

This module will describe the proper process for both attribute testing and variable sampling in financial statement and compliance audits. \nObjectives\n\nRecall generally accepted audit requirements related to sampling applications. \nDifferentiate attribute testing for tests of controls or compliance from sampling for substantive assurance in tests of details. \nExplain special considerations related to testing in compliance audits performed in accordance with Uniform Guidance. \nIdentify common sampling-related audit deficiencies.
