SA 300- Planning an audit of financial statements deals with the auditor's responsibility to plan an audit of financial statements. It states that objective of the auditor is to plan the audit so that it will be performed in an effective manner.
Planning an audit is necessary to carry out it effectively in a timely manner. Besides ensuring compliance with professional standards, it helps in performing audit engagement effectively.
Update: CA Final Audit Blended Batch starting from 17th June 2024.
Adequate planning benefits the audit of financial statements in several ways, including the following:-
* Helping the auditor to devote appropriate attention to important areas of the audit.
* Helping the auditor identify and resolve potential problems on a timely basis.
* Helping the auditor properly organize and manage the audit engagement so that it is performed in an effective and efficient manner.
* Assisting in the selection of engagement team members with appropriate levels of capabilities and competence to respond to anticipated risks, and the proper assignment of work to them.
* Facilitating the direction and supervision of engagement team members and the review of their work. Assisting, where applicable, in coordination of work done by others such as experts.
Therefore, planning an audit ensures that audit risk is reduced to an acceptable low level. When audit work is adequately and properly planned, it reduces the risk of inappropriate opinion by the auditor.
