- Ray, the owner of a small company, asked Holmes, CPA, to conduct an audit of the company’s records. Ray told Holmes that the audit must be completed in time to submit audited financial statements to a bank as part of a loan application. Holmes immediately accepted the engagement and agreed to provide an auditor’s report within three weeks. Ray agreed to pay Holmes a fixed fee plus a bonus if the loan was granted. Holmes hired two accounting students to conduct the audit and spent several hours telling them exactly what to do. Holmes told the students not to spend time reviewing the controls but to concentrate on proving the mathematical accuracy of the ledger accounts and to summarize the data in the accounting records that support Ray’s financial statements. The students followed Holmes’ instructions and after two weeks gave Holmes the financial statements, which did not include footnotes because the company did not have any unusual transactions. Holmes reviewed the statements and prepared an unqualified auditor’s report. The report, however, did not refer to GAAP or to the year-to-year application of such principles. Briefly describe each of the ten standards included in the PCAOB guidance and indicate how the action(s) of Holmes resulted in a failure to comply with each standard.arrow_forwardBlue Company, an architectural firm, has a bookkeeper who maintains a cash receipts and disbursements journal.

You know that he has incurred a refrigeration repair expense during the month, but you see no such expense on the books. When you question the client, he tells you that he has not yet paid the 1,255 bill. Your client is on the accrual basis of accounting. He does not want the refrigeration repair expense on the books as of the end of the month because he wants his profits to look good for the bank. Is your client behaving ethically by suggesting that the refrigeration repair expense not be booked until the 1,255 is paid? Are you behaving ethically if you agree to the clients request?

In that single year, the following transactions occur. One of the customers pays his $1,400 amount of debt by check. The company immediately pays its $1,200 amount of debt by endorsing these checks. After a while, another customer pays $900 cash for an outstanding debt. The company deposits $800 of this amount to its bank. Then, the company decides to pay one half of its debts via EFT(electronic funds transfer), and the other half of its debts by issuing its own checks. Lastly, the payee cashes these checks from the bank. Assuming that there are no more transactions throughout the year, what would be the total asset at the end of that year?arrow_forward
