1. Auditor conducts an audit of the client company which is a retail business to customer company. The client has a large number of transactions, this makes the auditor use a sample to check for a sufficiently material transaction. The company has 100 sales transactions with a material amount. Out of 100 transactions, materiality is set at 5% or 5 transactions. The auditor took a sample of 40 transactions and found that there were 4 misstatements or deviations found from the 40 audited transactions. Based on the results of the sample test, the auditor concluded that there was a material misstatement. The auditor assumes that 4 out of 40 equals 10%, so that the misstatement is above 5%.
