On the basis of audit evidence gathered and evaluated, an auditor decides to decrease the level of detection risk from that originally planned. Assuming the same planned audit risk level, the change in the planned detection risk most likely resulted from a[n)
A. Increase in the assessed control risk
B.Increase in materiality levels.
C. Decrease in the assessed inherent risk
D.Decrease in the assessed citrol risk.
In obtaining audit evidence, the auditor should use professional judgment to assess the risk of material misstatement (which includes inherent and control risk) and design further audit procedures to ensure this risk is increased to an acceptably high level.
TRUE OR FALSE? WHY?
In order to assess Control Risk/the risk of material misstatement, the auditor would complete all of the following steps except:
A) Consider the likelihood that identified risks could result in material misstatement
B) Identify risks
C) Determine the Risk of Incorrect Acceptance

Perform tests of other controls related to the same assertion as the control deemedineffective.b. Evaluate the severity of the deficiency on the auditor’s control risk assessment for thatassertion.c. Modify the planned substantive procedures as a result of the deficiency.d. Test the deficient control, assuming a maximum level of risk.arrow_forward
- Some audit procedures may be performed before the end of the reporting period. The more the auditor relies on the operating effectiveness of controls in the assessment of risk, the greater is the extent of the auditor’s tests of controls.

Increase the risk of material misstatement.arrow_forwardWhich of the following regarding the level of materiality is correct? Select one: a. An increase in materiality will decrease the amount of substantive testing b. In order to decrease detection risk, the auditor would increase materiality. c.
