For the part of the test “Verify the BA, Developer, and QA attended a meeting to assign the user story points” Could you please see if we had requested screen shot of outlook to see who all attend the meeting or some other evidence? If so, please reference as source. If not please expand (Audit Procedures or on the workpaper testing) how you came to the determination. Since there is an exception on the workpaper could you please indicate in the conclusion something along the lines of “Except for the noted issue it appears…” How did you determine that there were no active user stories greater than 6 months? Was there a query our area that you can go to in TFS if so please add it in the Audit Procedures.

When analyzing the Pinnacle Manufacturing Financial Statements there multiple concerns that should be further investigated that I will explain in this memo. When identifying the year to year change and using financial ratios found on A6, there are a couple of concerns that need to be identified. The fact that the operating expense from fluctuated from an increase $892,861 from 2009 to 2010 and then decreased by $956,231 from 2010 to 2011 should be raised in question. At the same time Operating expenses income from operations decreased from 2009-2010 by $1,260,571 and increased from 2010-2011 by $78,541. The -23.10% from 2009-2010 is concerning in their ability realized from profit on their business operation. On the balance sheet there
SUBJECT: Beginning the Audit Report (Engagement letter, Engagement checklist, Outline of timeframes and milestones of the audit)
The audit would likely take a longer period of time to complete than the promised two and half weeks (the audit team completed the audit in this time frame in 2007) due to a) the expectation that extra work would be required related to possible asset and receivables write-downs as a result of the economic downturn; b) some accounting policies had been changed, which led to more time required from senior associates to help guide junior associates and co-op students through the company’s new set of circumstances and c) since the tax team did not attend the planning meeting, Dee and Michaels had to allocate time to answer their questions during the audit.

The company is struggling with the implementation of new IT systems. This new system has eliminated the audit work since it has problem on the accuracy for most of the report such as: internal management budget report, inventory status report, and payroll tax deductions, etc. especially when Barnes and Fischer is not familiar with the system. To be noted the new IT system was implicated in early 2011, but the new controller who was in charge of accounting reporting and be responsible for the accuracy just got hired few months before the year of 2011 end. Thus, the auditors may have difficulty time getting additional help from the controller as well as the information they need from the system and may increase the amount of time and cost on applicable testing required. Last but not lease, Ocean Manufacturing has changed auditors three times over the past 12 years. They also had problem on agreeing on auditing fees. This cause of concern. I believe there has to be something inherently wrong in the company system.
When engaged in auditing a public firm, such as Apollo Shoe Inc., an auditor must determine when to trust in the company’s internal controls and when to ascertain auxiliary testing methods are obligatory to analyze control risks.
