You and your staff have completed an audit of a nonissuer for the calendar year ended December 31, year 2. The audit report date of the financial statement was March 11, year 3, and on March 26, year 3, the client issued the financial statements.

On April 15, year 3, as you are ascertaining that the workpapers and related audit programs are complete and properly signed off, you notice that the financial statements include a material misstatement subsequent to the issuance of an unmodified report. The misstatement was determined to be the inclusion of material nonexistent sales.

Your audit team issued the financial statements. Information regarding nonexistent sales was not known at the date of the audit report. The auditors find the subsequently discovered information is both reliable and existed at the date of the auditor's report. The team determines that the inclusion of the material nonexistent sales would have affected the audit report. The audit team believes there are persons currently relying on, or likely to rely on, the financial statements. Is the auditor's responsibility with respect to the nonexistent sales different if the auditor has resigned or been discharged prior to undertaking or completing the investigation than if he were the continuing auditor?
