While your team is out at fieldwork, you have been assigned to the Acquisition and Expenditures Cycle. Specifically, your team wants you to complete the search for unrecorded liabilities:

 

1. What are two significant accounts within this cycle? For each account, discuss a relevant assertion and associated "what could go wrong" (WCGW)?

 

2. Explain what control might address the WCGWs you noted?

 

3. Explain what audit procedure might address the WCGWs you noted. As a part of your search for unrecorded liabilities, you may choose to send confirmation out to certain vendors?

4. What vendors would be appropriate to send a confirmation to?
