GAAS requires an auditor to write a report to express an opinion in regards to the financial statements, taken as a whole, or notate that an opinion cannot be expressed based on the facts given (Generally Accounting Auditing Standards, 2016). When the auditor is unable to express an overall opinion, the auditor should list the reasons why in the auditor’s report. When an auditor’s name is associated with financial statements, the auditor should clearly indicate the character of the auditor’s work, if any, and the degree of responsibility the auditor is taken, in the auditor’s report. (“Generally Accepted Accounting Principles,” n.d.). In 1999, Grant Thornton issued an unqualified audit opinion. Grant Thornton acknowledged the firm’s duty to “obtain reasonable assurance about whether the bank’s financial statements are free of material misstatement” and the opinion stated that the firm had found such assurance (Grant Thornton LLP v. the OCC, 2008). The auditor’s opinion should provide reasonable assurance that the financial statements presented are fair in all aspects. The audit’s opinion does not have to have absolute assurance, however, it should give a fair view to follow the financial reporting framework (Auditor’s Report-What is an auditor’s report?, 2015).

Given the complexity and discretionary role of choosing the discount rate for pensions under SFAS No. 87, the planning procedures are essential to ensuring enough evidence is obtained by auditors. Four steps in the audit plan are of utmost importance — (1) assessing business risks, (2) establishing materiality, and (3) assessing the need for specialists. GM was consistently faced with large pension expenses due to their generous pension plans. Consequently, an audit team would need to analyze the pension account with high scrutiny because of its potential to affect the financial position of GM. In addition, materiality needs to be established on the amount of misstatement involved in the account because it provides a steadfast measure of error for the team to use in throughout the audit.
