Choice "a" is incorrect. The auditor should inquire how management communicates to employees its views on acceptable business practices.
Choice "d" is incorrect. The auditor should inquire whether there are any particular business segments for which a risk of fraud may be more likely to exist.
Choice "c" is incorrect. The auditor should inquire whether management is aware of any allegations of fraud.
2.D
D is corrent. This is one of the goals of the information and communication system.
A is incorrect. This is not a goal of the control environment.
B is incorrect. This is not a specific goal of control activities.
C is incorrect. This is not a goal of monitoring.
3.C
Choice "C" is correct. Transferee governments should recognize the net fund balance of an operation it receives as a special item in the period the transfer occurs.Choice "a" is incorrect. Transferee governments classify the net fund balances of the operation it receives as a special item, not an other financing source.Choice "d" is incorrect. Transferee governments classify the net fund balances of the operation it receives as a special item, not an other financing use.Choice "b" is incorrect. Transferee governments classify the net fund balances of the operation it receives as a special item, not a deferred inflow.
4.B
Choice "B" is correct. A noncompensated surety will be discharged from liability if the principal debtor and the creditor modify the terms of the contract in any way. A partial surrender of the debtor's collateral is a modification that will release a noncompensated surety from liability.Choice "d" is incorrect. One of the reasons creditors seek sureties is to have someone who can pay the debt if the principal debtor goes bankrupt. Bankruptcy of the principal debtor will not discharge the surety. Choice "a" is incorrect. The creditor becoming incompetent after the debt arose has no bearing on the liability of either the debtor or the surety.Choice "c" is not as good an answer as "B". The principal's duress will discharge the surety's obligation only if the creditor knew about the duress when the creditor accepted the surety.
