23.In a dollar-unit sampling plan, the upper limit on misstatements is $11,200 and this risk of incorrect acceptance is 5%. This means that A)Tolerable misstatement is $11,200. B)There is a 95% chance that the misstatement in the account is $11,200 or more. C)There is a 95% chance that the misstatement in the account is $11,200. D)There is a 95% chance that the misstatement in the account is $11,200 or less.

Audit-tolerable deviation rate, multiple choice

When assessing the tolerable deviation rate, the auditor should consider that, while deviations from control procedures increase the risk of material misstatements, such deviations do not necessarily result in misstatements. This explains why- A) A recorded disbursement that does not show evidence of required approval may nevertheless be a transaction that is properly authorized and recorded. B) Deviations would result in errors in the accounting records only if the deviations and the misstatements occurred on different transactions. C) Deviations from pertinent control procedures at a given rate ordinarily would be expected to result in misstatements at a higher... click for more
