Sample Size Determination. Jule Phillips is examining the internal control of CowboyCompany and has identified the mathematical verification of sales invoices as an importantcontrol and decided to test this control. Based on a discussion with Cowboy’s management,Phillips determined that Cowboy Company’s employees were required to indicate their compliance with this control by writing their initials in an appropriate place on the invoice copy.Assume that Phillips established an acceptable risk of overreliance of 5 percent, anexpected population deviation rate of 3 percent, and a tolerable rate of deviation of 9 percent.Required:a. Using AICPA sample size tables, determine the appropriate sample size.b. Indicate how Phillips would assess the three parameters that are used to determine sample size (risk of overreliance, expected population deviation rate, and tolerable rate ofdeviation).c. Use the original parameters but now assume that Phillips is willing to increase the acceptable risk…
d. Assume that based on additional controls implemented by ELM, your audit team has decided to reduce the expected misstatement from $77,928 to $19,482 (0.5 percent of the recorded balance of the transactions). What is the necessary sample size, holding all other factors constant?
Discovery and Sequential Attributes Sampling. Sydney Siebenthaler, the audit managerfor Jennifer’s Running Shirts Inc., has just returned from a continuing education class onaudit sampling and now wants to use discovery sampling or sequential sampling on the Jennifer’s audit because the class instructor said that the sample sizes would be significantlysmaller. “Talk about a no-brainer!” Siebenthaler exulted.Jennifer’s has good controls, and the audit team has performed tests of controls over thepayroll procedures in previous years to reduce substantive tests of payroll accounts to onlyanalytical procedures. In the previous year, the audit team used the following parameters:risk of overreliance, 10 percent; expected population deviation rate, 2 percent; and tolerablerate of deviation, 10 percent, which resulted in a sample size of 38. The auditors increased(rounded) the sample size to 40 items, and one deviation was found. The resulting ULRDrate was 9.4 percent, and the control was…

As partof the evaluation, Jackson determined a necessary sample size of 93 items (based on a tolerable rate of deviation of 5 percent, an expected population deviation rate of 0.5 percent, anda risk of overreliance of 5 percent). After properly selecting the 93 items, Jackson found nodeviations from the prescribed control activities.Required:a. Based on Jackson’s sample, determine the sample rate of deviation and ULRD. (Becausethe AICPA sample evaluation tables do not contain a row for a sample size of 93, rounddown and use a sample size of 90.)b.
