  25. Clarity ISAs ISA Modules • Short videos and supporting slides • Main thrust of revised ISA and significant changes • First release Q4 2009, free of charge from Center

  26. 国际审计准则课件(ISA Modules) 明晰后的国际审计准则 • 视频短片和支持性幻灯片 • 修订国际审计准则的主要推动力和重大变化 • 2009第4季度首次公布,免费使用

  27. Clarity ISAs Proportionality of Application of the ISAs • Concern in some quarters about: • Applicability of ISAs to smaller audits • Audit documentation burden • Undue inspection requirements • IAASB Staff Q&A issued August 2009 • Explains proportionality of ISAs in SME context • Emphasizes importance of professional judgment

  28. 执行国际审计准则时需要“量体裁衣” 明晰后的国际审计准则 • 对下列方面的考虑: • 对较小型企业审计的适用性 • 审计工作记录的负担 • 不必要的检查要求 • 2009年8月发布的IAASB员工所做的问题与解答: • 解释如何“量体裁衣”地运用国际审计准则执行中小企业审计 • 强调职业判断的重要性

  29. Clarity ISAs Proportionality of Application of the ISAs • Application of ISAs designed to be proportionate • Proportionate to size, level of complexity, nature of entity • Proportionality ≠ modification of requirements • Differences between SMEs and larger entities recognized by ISAs • Not every audit needs to be performed the same way • Audit approach will vary with circumstances (simpler/more complex) • Work effort affected by entity’s activities/accounting

  30. 执行国际审计准则时需要“量体裁衣” 明晰后的国际审计准则 • 国际审计准则是按照能够适用于各种类型的被审计单位的原则制定的: • 根据被审计单位的规模、复杂程度和性质等具体情况 • 量体裁衣≠修改要求 • 国际审计准则承认中小企业与较大型企业的不同之处 • 并非每项审计业务都要以同样的方式执行 • 审计方法可视具体情况而改变(更简单还是更复杂) • 工作量受被审计单位的业务活动或会计实务的影响

  31. Clarity ISAs How do ISAs Demonstrate Proportionality? • Through the requirements, e.g. • ISA 260, where management = TCWG • ISA 315, absence of formal risk assessment process • ISA 540, choice of responses to assessed risks • Through the application material • Many considerations specific to smaller entities

  32. 如何证明国际审计准则的适用性? 明晰后的国际审计准则 • 例如,下列规定: • ISA 260, 管理层= 治理层 • ISA 315, 缺少正式的风险评估过程 • ISA 540, 对评估的风险的应对措施的选择 • 例如,应用及其他解释性材料: • 对小型被审计单位的特殊考虑

  33. Clarity ISAs Compliance with All ISAs? • Basic obligation in the ISAs • Comply with all ISAs relevant to the audit • When can compliance with ISAs be claimed? • Only when all relevant ISAs have been complied with • However, not all ISAs may be relevant in an SME audit, e.g. • ISA 402, if SME does not use a service organization • ISA 600, if SME audit is not a group audit • ISA 610, if SME has no internal audit function

  34. 遵守所有的国际审计准则? 明晰后的国际审计准则 • 国际审计准则的基本责任 • 遵守与审计相关的所有国际审计准则 • 何时可声明遵守了国际审计准则? • 只有已遵守所有相关的国际审计准则 • 然而并非所有国际审计准则都与中小企业审计相关,例如: • ISA 402, 如果中小企业不使用服务机构 • ISA 600, 如果中小企业审计业务不是集团审计 • ISA 610, 如果中小企业没有内部审计

  35. Clarity ISAs Compliance with All Requirements? • Even if an ISA is relevant, not all its requirements may be relevant • Conditional requirements need not be applied if conditions do not exist • Examples • Engagement team discussion • Performing substantive and other follow-up procedures in context of unidentified related parties • Determining whether material uncertainty exists in context of going concern

  36. 遵守所有的要求? 明晰后的国际审计准则 • 即使某一项准则与中小企业审计相关,也并不意味着该准则的所有要求都相关 • 如果特定条件不存在,则以该条件为前提的要求不适用 • 举例: • 项目组讨论 • 当存在未识别的关联方时,实施实质性程序和其他跟进程序 • 确定持续经营是否存在重大不确定性

  37. Clarity ISAs Documentation Requirements • Appropriate documentation need not be burdensome • Documentation of significant professional judgments helps to reinforce their quality • Application designed to be proportionate, efficient and effective • Experienced auditor test • Requires professional judgment, not checklist approach • Helpful illustrations of how to apply requirements

  38. 记录要求 明晰后的国际审计准则 • 适当的审计工作记录不会难以承担 • 对重大职业判断的记录有助于提高工作质量 • 应用及其他解释性资料是按照适用、有效果且有效率的原则制定的 • 以有经验的审计师的角度测试 • 要求运用职业判断,而非采用程序核对表的方法 • 包含有用的举例,解释如何执行要求

  39. IAASB Current and Forward Agenda • Continued development of the ISAs • Development of alternatives to the audit • Development of other assurance standards • Other areas of public interest

  40. IAASB当前及今后的工作 继续制定国际审计准则 研究替代审计的方法 制定其他鉴证业务准则 涉及公众利益的其他领域

  41. IAASB Current and Forward Agenda Continued Development of the ISAs • Guidance on auditing complex financial instruments • Briefing paper and revision of IAPS 1012 • Use of internal audit (revision of ISA 610) • Auditor’s report: • Academic research on user perceptions; consideration of implications for ISA 700 • Other information in documents containing audited financial information (revision of ISA 720)

  43. IAASB Current and Forward Agenda Alternatives to Audit: Reviews & Compilations • ISRE 2400 and ISRS 4410 are increasingly relevant in meeting needs of those entities exempt from statutory audit requirements • Project approved March 2009; IAASB progressing discussion of issues • Project considerations • Alternative services must be clearly distinguishable as to level of assurance, work effort and cost • Communication to promote user understanding

  44. 替代审计的方法:审阅和代编 IAASB当前及今后的工作 • 为了满足豁免法定审计要求的实体的需求,ISRE 2400 和ISRS 4410 的相关性逐渐增强 • 2009年3月批准的项目;IAASB继续讨论的问题 • 对项目的考虑 • 可供选择的服务必须能够在保证程度、工作量和成本上予以明确区分 • 通过沟通提高使用者的理解程度

  50. 可扩展商业报告语言(XBRL) 在审计附有XBRL数据的已审计财务报表时,解决对审计师所做的工作和报告的期望问题 IAASB当前及今后的工作 影响分析 分析建议新制定或修订的准则的影响(包括成本、效益等),并考虑将其作为应循程序的一部分 快速反应 建立针对突发问题的应对机制
