ACCA F8审计知识点：The audit of wages（二）

来源：高顿网校 2015-10-09

　　还在对着审计抓耳挠腮？快来看看高顿网校小编整理的ACCA F8知识点：The audit of wages之Part 2！
6. TYPICAL TESTS OF CONTROL AND SUBSTANTIVE TESTS

　　Interim audit

　　The type of test performed will depend on the particular features of the wages system and the auditor’s evaluation of controls.

　　a) To ensure that employees are only paid for work done.

　　Test of control – observe clocking on procedures and the level of supervision.

　　Substantive procedure – select a sample of employees from the payroll and agree hours paid to individual clock cards.

　　b) To ensure that wages are only paid to valid employees.

　　Test of control - attend the wages pay out.

　　Substantive procedure – select a sample of employees from the payroll and vouch to individual contracts of employment in HR department.

　　c) To ensure that all wages are authorised.

　　Test of control – review overtime forms/lists for authorised signatures.

　　Substantive procedure – compare overtime costs each month with the prior year and investigate significant variances.

　　d) To ensure wages are paid at the correct rates of pay.

　　Test of control – review log of amendments to master file for evidence of independent review.

　　Substantive procedure – obtain printout of employee wage rates and compare to HR records.

　　e) To ensure that errors do not occur in payroll calculations.

　　Test of control – review payrolls for signatures as evidence of independentcalculation checks.

　　Substantive procedure – select a sample of employees and check calculations of gross and net pay.

　　7. FINAL AUDIT

　　Tests to ensure the accuracy and completeness of balances in respect of wage costs and payroll deductions (Control objectives 5, 6 and 7) are normally substantive in nature and conducted as part the final audit.

　　A substantive audit programme should include:

　　• Agree total wages and deductions per selected payrolls to the amounts recorded in the individual general (nominal) ledger accounts

　　• Perform analytical procedures such as proof in total by using number of employees and average wage. Investigate any significant fluctuations.

　　• Carry out month-by-month comparisons of total wages with prior year/budgets and investigate differences.

　　• Agree sundry payables for tax outstanding at the year end to the payroll records and check subsequent payment to cash book.

　　Computer assisted audit techniques

　　Use the computer as an audit tool and the most common examples are test data and audit software. These could be employed during the interim and final audit of wages.

　　Test data consists of data submitted by the auditor to test the operation of application controls such as data-validation (edit) checks. Test data should be input using valid and invalid transactions to check the operation of these controls. Examples include:

　　• Input employee numbers that do not exist or are in an incorrect format – to ensure these items are rejected and included on an error report.

　　• Input a gross weekly pay exceeding $2,000 – to ensure these employees are included on an exception report.

　　• Input overtime hours exceeding 30 hours per week – to ensure these employees are also included on an exception report.

　　Audit software is normally used by the auditor for substantive testing and can interrogate a client’s computer files, re-perform calculations or extract items for further investigation. Examples include:

　　• Re-perform calculations of gross wage, deductions and casts on selected payrolls.

　　• Compare the payroll file at the beginning and end of the period to identify starters and leavers, which could then be checked to appropriate documentation.

　　• Comparing employee records on payroll file and HR files.

acca备考热门问题解答

acca考试怎么搭配科目？: 建议优先选择相关联的科目进行搭配报考，这样可以提高备考效率，减轻备考压力，1、F1-F4：为随时机考科目，难度较低，这里可以自行随意选择考试顺序。2、F5-F9：如果你的工作的和财务会计或者审计有关、或者你比较擅长财务和审计的话，推荐先考F7和F8。你可以选择一起考ACCA考试科目F7和F8或者先考F7（8）再考F8（7），这就要取决你一次想考几门。3、P阶段：选修科目中，建议企业首选AFM！第二部分科目进行选择，如果AA和SBR掌握学生更好，可以通过选择AAA，如果SBL掌握的好，可以自己选择APM。
