You have read last year's audit file and have obtained the following information: The hotel employs both full and part time staff. Due to the nature of the business most of the work is done in shifts. All staff are paid on a monthly basis. New members of staff are given an electronic photo identification card on the day they join by the personnel department. This card is used to 'clock in' and 'clock out' at the start and end of the shift to record the hours worked. At the end of each week the information recorded on the system is sent automatically to the payroll department and also to the head of each of the three main operating divisions: Rooms, Food & Beverage and Corporate Events. Each division head must reply back to the payroll department by email to authorise the hours worked by their staff. The payroll clerk collates all the authorised information and then inputs the hours worked into a standardised computerised payroll package. This system is password protected using an alphanumerical password that is only known to the payroll clerk and the finance manager. Once the hours have been entered, the calculation of the gross pay and taxation are calculated automatically along with any other statutory deductions. At the end of the calculations a payroll report is produced and printed. The finance manager reviews the report and compares the data to last month to identify and follow up any unusual variances. When he is satisfied with the information, he authorises the payroll run by signing the payroll report and the payroll clerk submits the data. Payslips are sent to the home address of each employee and payment is made by bank transfer. Required: With reference to the scenario: (i) Identify and explain FOUR STRENGTHS within the hotel's internal control system in respect of payroll. (4 marks) (ii) For each of the identified strengths, state a test of control the auditor could perform to assess if the controls are operating effectively.

QUESTION ONE (30 MARKS) (a) You are the audit manager in charge of the audit of Die Hard Company Limited, a company that has been trading for 20 years selling Computers and its accessories directly to the public and has recently become a listed company. The companys year-end is 31 December. Current liabilities are shown on Die Hard Co's statement of financial position as follows: Trade payables 884,824 816,817 Accruals 56,903 51 ,551 1,001,727 868,368 Required: List the substantive audit procedures that you should undertake in the audit of current liabilities of Die Hard Co for the year ended 31 December 2018.

The distribution centre cost a total of GHC 200,000 to construct. The construction was completed by the end of April. Required: Set out the audit objectives in respect of the above and the substantive procedures you would carry out to achieve those objectives

c) Patapaa Transporters Bank and cash You are the external auditor of Patapaa Transporters, a public limited company. The companys year-end is 31 December. The bank and cash figure included in Patapaa Transporters draft financial statements is comprised of a number of bank account balances. The finance director has informed you that all accounts have been reconciled as at the year end. The following is a reconciliation statement of one of the accounts.

Santasi Limited's draft statement of profit or loss shows a profit before tax for the year ended December 31, 2008 of GHC40m. Santasi Limited's audit firm are conducting an audit. This is the first audit of Santasi Ltd that this audit firm have conducted. An enquiry to the previous audit firm revealed no reasons for concern. On completing audit work at the company's premises, the audit senior drafts a memo, extracts from which are reproduced below: (i) Inventory valuation Inventories include GHC7m, at cost, for scrap rubber from used car tyres. This material is widely used as a road surface in other countries. Contracts for road building with this country's Highways Agency, the state authority for road construction, do not currently permit the use of this material. However, the matter was known to be under review and on being offered a special purchase of this material, Santasi Limited speculated on a favourable outcome of this review and purchase the material. In February 2009, shortly before the financial statements were approved by the directors, the Highways Agency reported that it would not, currently, accept the use of this material. If used on non-Highways Agency contracts the material's net realisable value would not exceed GHC2m. The finance director maintains that the issue of the Highways Agency report was a nonadjusting event after the reporting period. The write down of the inventory should, therefore, be reflected in the next period's financial statements. (ii) Contingent liability The company is being sued for GHC50m by the Highways Agency for defective work on a recently completed road. The company maintains that it met the Highways Agency's specification and it is the Agency's engineers who are at fault in drawing up the specification. Santasi Limited maintains that it has no case to answer, that the possibility of loss is remote and that the claim need not be disclosed as a contingent liability. An investigative journalist has recently published an article suggesting that other roads constructed by the company exhibit similar faults. The managing director has admitted that the company's road building techniques are under investigation by the Highways Agency. If the company were to lose the case its future going concern would be threatened. No disclosure has been made in the financial statements. Required: For each of the following two issues, discuss whether the financial statements require amendment and describe the impact on the auditor's report if the issue remains unresolved. (i) Inventory valuation (ii) Contingent liability

At the end of each week the information recorded on the system is sent automatically to the payroll department and also to the head of each of the three main operating divisions: Rooms, Food & Beverage and Corporate Events. Each division head must reply back to the payroll department by email to authorise the hours worked by their staff. The payroll clerk collates all the authorised information and then inputs the hours worked into a standardised computerised payroll package. This system is password protected using an alphanumerical password that is only known to the payroll clerk and the finance manager. Once the hours have been entered, the calculation of the gross pay and taxation are calculated automatically along with any other statutory deductions. At the end of the calculations a payroll report is produced and printed. The finance manager reviews the report and compares the data to last month to identify and follow up any unusual variances. When he is satisfied with the information, he authorises the payroll run by signing the payroll report and the payroll clerk submits the data. Payslips are sent to the home address of each employee and payment is made by bank transfer.
