Part 1: Georgia Fallon recently graduated from Pleasant View University, where she majored in engineering with a minor in business administration. She was hired by Brock Industries as a junior staff internal auditor, and she reported to work this week for the first time. She was assigned to work with Josh Marks, a newly promoted senior auditor, on an audit of the companys quality control program for production at one plant.

Josh is a little uneasy about this, his first assignment as a senior auditor. To make things even more challenging, he has been assigned to supervise Georgias work.

Required:

Review the Auditing Standards and indicate which provisions Josh and Georgia may have the most trouble meeting.

Part 2: Suppose that Brock Industries was being sued in a class action because of injuries to persons using products produced at the plant above. The action alleges that poor product quality caused the injuries.

Required:

1. How would this circumstance affect the types of evidence Josh Marks and Georgia Fallon would seek in the audit?
2. Identify at least four examples of the most persuasive evidence that could be collected for legal evidence relevant to this problem?
