(b) You are an audit manager with specific responsibility for reviewing other information

(b) You are an audit manager with specific responsibility for reviewing other information in documents containing

audited financial statements before your firm’s auditor’s report is signed. The financial statements of Hegas, a

privately-owned civil engineering company, show total assets of $120 million, revenue of $261 million, and profit

before tax of $9·2 million for the year ended 31 March 2005. Your review of the Annual Report has revealed

the following:

(i) The statement of changes in equity includes $4·5 million under a separate heading of ‘miscellaneous item’

which is described as ‘other difference not recognized in income’. There is no further reference to this

amount or ‘other difference’ elsewhere in the financial statements. However, the Management Report, which

is required by statute, is not audited. It discloses that ‘changes in shareholders’ equity not recognized in

income includes $4·5 million arising on the revaluation of investment properties’.

The notes to the financial statements state that the company has implemented IAS 40 ‘Investment Property’

for the first time in the year to 31 March 2005 and also that ‘the adoption of this standard did not have a

significant impact on Hegas’s financial position or its results of operations during 2005’.

(ii) The chairman’s statement asserts ‘Hegas has now achieved a position as one of the world’s largest

generators of hydro-electricity, with a dedicated commitment to accountable ethical professionalism’. Audit

working papers show that 14% of revenue was derived from hydro-electricity (2004: 12%). Publicly

available information shows that there are seven international suppliers of hydro-electricity in Africa alone,

which are all at least three times the size of Hegas in terms of both annual turnover and population supplied.

Required:

Identify and comment on the implications of the above matters for the auditor’s report on the financial

statements of Hegas for the year ended 31 March 2005. (10 marks)

(b) You are the audit manager of Jinack Co, a private limited liability company. You are currently reviewing two

matters that have been left for your attention on the audit working paper file for the year ended 30 September

2005:

(i) Jinack holds an extensive range of inventory and keeps perpetual inventory records. There was no full

physical inventory count at 30 September 2005 as a system of continuous stock checking is operated by

warehouse personnel under the supervision of an internal audit department.

A major systems failure in October 2005 caused the perpetual inventory records to be corrupted before the

year-end inventory position was determined. As data recovery procedures were found to be inadequate,

Jinack is reconstructing the year-end quantities through a physical count and ‘rollback’. The reconstruction

exercise is expected to be completed in January 2006. (6 marks)
