Evaluate inherent risk for purchase transactions and accounts payable. Explain why you have identified various assertions as high or maximum risk for accounts payable. c. Analyze and draw conclusions about the nature and extent of tests of controls: 1. For each assertion that you identify as high or maximum inherent risk, identify an internal control, or a combination of internal controls, that would control that risk. 2. Explain the nature and extent of tests of controls you would need to perform to assess control risk as low, for the controls you identified in (c)1 above. d. Analyze and draw conclusions about the nature, timing, and extent of substantive procedures: 1. Given your conclusions about inherent risk and assuming that tests of controls show that internal controls are effective, what are your conclusions about detection risk for the assertions identified as high or maximum inherent risk? Explain your conclusions. 2. For the assertions you identified as high or maximum inherent risk, what is the substantive procedure you would suggest performing (nature of the test)? Explain your conclusions. 3. For the assertions you identified as high or maximum inherent risk, when do you suggest performing the substantive procedure (timing of the test)? Explain your conclusions. 4. For the assertions you identified as high or maximum inherent risk, how extensively should the auditor test these assertions (extent of the test)? Explain your conclusions. Reference Raymond N. Johnson. 2019. Auditing: A Practical Approach with Data Analytics. Wiley.

Inquire if asset additions represent asset replacement and if asset replaced were included as disposal. 2. Inquire with the appropriate personnel (e.g. production supervisor should know the disposal of a production equipment) if there were assets disposed during the reporting period. 3. In relation to other accounts and examining whether properly accounted for: • Evaluate whether product lines were discontinued (when auditing revenues), inquire on the movement of the assets used for the line. • If there is reduction or change in owned or leased warehouses/production facilities/offices, inquire on the assets previously used in such. For accuracy and completeness: 1. Analyze unusual gains or losses recorded which may be lodged under others/miscellaneous income statement accounts and whether proceeds and carrying amount on date of disposal were properly accounted for. For all assertions: 1.) Obtain a listing of additions, disposals and reclassifications to and from other accounts. Add or deduct, as applicable, such amounts to beginning property, plant and equipment balances to arrive at the ending balance. Investigate if any difference arises with the amount that appears in the trial balance.
