　　Hazard as part of his remuneration package.

　　Hazard’s directors are considering establishing an internal audit department, and the finance director has asked the

　　audit firm, Remy & Co about the differences between internal audit and external audit.

　　If the internal audit department is established, and Remy & Co is appointed as internal as well as external auditors,

　　then Hazard has suggested that the external audit fee should be renegotiated with at least 20% of the fee being based

　　on the profit after tax of the company as they feel this will align the interests of Remy & Co and Hazard.

　　(a) Using the information above:

　　(i) Explain the ethical threats which may affect the independence of Remy & Co in respect of the audit of

　　Hazard Co; and (3 marks)

　　(ii) For each threat explain how it might be reduced to an acceptable level. (3 marks)

　　audit manager and finance director where two material issues were discussed.

　　Balotelli incurred significant capital expenditure during the year on updating the leisure facilities for the hotel. The

　　finance director has proposed that the new leisure equipment should be depreciated over 10 years using the

　　straight-line method.

　　Food poisoning

　　Balotelli’s directors received correspondence in September from a group of customers who attended a wedding

　　two issues.

　　Note: The total marks will be split equally between each issue. (8 marks)

　　You are the audit manager and the year-end audit is due to commence shortly. The following matter has been

　　brought to your attention. Torres’s trade receivables have historically been low as most members pay monthly in

　　advance. However during the year a number of companies have taken up group memberships at Torres and

　　hence the receivables balance is now material. The audit senior has undertaken a receivables circularisation for

　　the balances at the year end; however, there are a number who have not responded and a number of responses

　　of his meeting and financial statement extracts.

　　Walters’s management were disappointed with the 2013 results and so in 2014 undertook a number of strategies to

　　improve the trading results. This included the introduction of a generous sales-related bonus scheme for their

　　salesmen and a high profile advertising campaign. In addition, as market conditions are difficult for their customers,

　　they have extended the credit period given to them.

　　The finance director of Walters has reviewed the inventory valuation policy and has included additional overheads

　　incurred this year as he considers them to be production related.

　　The finance director has calculated a few key ratios for Walters; the gross profit margin has increased from 44·4% to

　　that they are a good reflection of the improved trading levels.

　　86 Garcia International Co (Garcia) is a manufacturer of electrical equipment. It has factories across the country and its

　　customer base includes retailers as well as individuals, to whom direct sales are made through their website. The

　　company’s year end is 30 September 2014. You are an audit supervisor of Suarez & Co and are currently reviewing

　　documentation of Garcia’s internal control in preparation for the interim audit.

　　Garcia’s website allows individuals to order goods directly, and full payment is taken in advance. Currently the website

　　is not integrated into the inventory system and inventory levels are not checked at the time when orders are placed.

　　Inventory is valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value.

　　Goods are despatched via local couriers; however, they do not always record customer signatures as proof that the

　　customer has received the goods. Over the past 12 months there have been customer complaints about the delay

　　between sales orders and receipt of goods. Garcia has investigated these and found that, in each case, the sales order

　　had been entered into the sales system correctly but was not forwarded to the despatch department for fulfilling.

　　Garcia’s retail customers undergo credit checks prior to being accepted and credit limits are set accordingly by sales

　　ledger clerks. These customers place their orders through one of the sales team, who decides on sales discount levels.

　　Raw materials used in the manufacturing process are purchased from a wide range of suppliers. As a result of staff

　　changes in the purchase ledger department, supplier statement reconciliations are no longer performed. Additionally,

　　changes to supplier details in the purchase ledger master file can be undertaken by purchase ledger clerks as well as

　　supervisors.

　　In the past six months Garcia has changed part of its manufacturing process and as a result some new equipment

　　has been purchased, however, there are considerable levels of plant and equipment which are now surplus to

　　requirement. Purchase requisitions for all new equipment have been authorised by production supervisors and little

　　has been done to reduce the surplus of old equipment.

　　Required:

　　(a) In respect of the internal control of Garcia International Co:

　　(i) Identify and explain SIX deficiencies;

　　(ii) Recommend a control to address each of these deficiencies; and

　　(iii) Describe a test of control Suarez & Co would perform to assess if each of these controls is operating

　　effectively.

　　Note: The total marks will be split equally between each part (18 marks)

　　(b) Describe substantive procedures Suarez & Co should perform at the year end to confirm plant and equipment

　　additions. (2 marks)
