Explanation of Solution

Audit Report:

An audit report refers to a written report issued by an auditor to express an opinion on the financial statements of the entity, whether they are free from factual misstatement or based on the evidence obtained by the auditor.

Mandatory reports that accompany the financial statements of public entities include:

  • Management’s report on the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting.
  • Auditors report on the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting.
  • Auditors report on the fairness of financial statements and other related disclosures.

In the case of nonpublic entities, an auditor prepares a report on the fairness of financial statements and other important related disclosures based on the demand of third party users.
