Substantive testing at Sooty Ltd Lastly, Tyrone brings up the audit of Sooty Ltd. Sooty manufactures machine parts which are used for servicing heavy equipment in the mining industry throughout Australia. Tyrone informs you that during the planning stage of the audit of Sooty, it was found that one of Sooty's key suppliers had gone into administration which had led to major shortages of key materials. In order to circumvent this problem, Sooty secured the supply of materials through an alternative supplier, however Tyrone notes that the alternative supplier is new to the market and that some of Sooty's production staff have been complaining that the materials are of inferior quality. Tyrone says that Sooty has also suffered from cash flow problems recently as one of their debtors, Brown Ltd, has also been experiencing financial problems, taking up to 4 months to pay amounts which are normally due within 30 days. Tyrone notes that Brown makes up 35% of Sooty's sales and that management wish to maintain a good relationship with Brown. The resulting cash flow implications has meant that Sooty has been drawing on its lines of credit, which has subsequently caused it to temporarily violate the terms of its contract with its bank, ASBC, which requires Sooty to maintain a current ratio of 2:1.
