In Tab F-1 'Liabilities Lead Sheet', you will see an unfinished workpaper. Your job is to perform a 'search for unrecorded liability' procedure and enter the audit adjustment amount for Account Payables (highlighted in yellow)
In Tab F-4 'Cash Disbursement Journal',an audit staffhas already selected a sample of cash disbursements made in the subsequent year, investigated them, and documented in the 'Note' column the purpose of these payments.
- Read 'Notes' for each payment. Find payments that should be included in the 2020 liability balance: Document next to each item whether the item is an expense/purchase for year 2020 (Column G).
- If the item is an expense for year 2020 but was paid in 2021, see if that payment was properly recorded as an outstanding A/P in AP Aged Schedule (Tab F-3). If not, document in Tab F-4 that the amount is unrecorded liability for year 2020 (Coiumn H).
- Sum all the 2021 payments that you found they should have been recorded as 2020 A/P but were not recorded, and document the adjusting journal entry for A/P (that you will propose to the client) in the Liabilities Lead Sheet (Tab F-1).
