ane part 5 Analytical Review (30 points) IT for the year under audit, with similar information for past years. 1. One type of Analytical Review involves comparing unaudited numbers and ratios based on What is the purpose of Analytical Review in the Preliminary Phase of an audit? numbens 2. In class we talked about two situations, related to auditor expectations, which the auditor would possibly investigate. Briefly present each situation. 3. Consider the following case. Assume that sales are made evenly through the year; accounts receivable are collected one month after sale. Gross profit to sales has been .40. Sales in year 1 are $1,200,000; actual sales increase 10% from year 1 to year 2. Accounts receivable turnover for year 1 was 12.0. Relationships between accounts for year 2 are expected to be similar to those of year 1. A comparison between year 1 and unaudited year 2 data is as follows: Year 1 Year 2 (unaudited) Sales Cost of Goods Sold $1,200,000 720,000 Accounts Receivable (end of year) 100,000 Can be determined 792,000 (amount seems all right) Can be determined Note: At the beginning of year 1, accounts receivable were $100,000. Unaudited data for year 2 indicate the following: Accounts receivable turnover is 8.166666 Gross profit to sales is 4612244 Determine if there seems to be a discrepancy for unaudited Sales for year 2 and Accounts Receivable at the end of year 2. If so, indicate whether it seems a possible overstatement or understatement, and estimate an amount.
