Answer:
1.B
Choice "B" is correct. Any report issued on significant deficiencies should indicate that providing assurance on internal control was not the purpose of the audit.
Choice "C" is incorrect. The auditor should communicate significant deficiencies to management and those charged with governance, but is not required to request a meeting with management one level above the source of the significant deficiencies, to discuss suggestions for remedial action.
Choice "D" is incorrect. Significant deficiencies discovered and communicated at an interim date do not need to be reexamined with tests of controls before completing the engagement.
Choice "A" is incorrect. Suggestions concerning administration efficiencies and business strategies may be communicated in the same report with significant deficiencies (the significant deficiencies must be separately identified, however).
2.A
A is corrent because it is desirable to store the data in a separate secure location to prevent loss from fire or natural disaster.
3.D
D is correct. An individual is allowed to deduct up to $2,500 for interest on qualified education loans in arriving at AGI. The deduction is reduced by adjusted gross income in excess of specified levels and loan proceeds must have been used to pay for the qualified higher education expenses (e.g., tuition, fees, room, board) of the taxpayer, spouse, or a dependent (at the time the debt was incurred). The education expenses must relate to a period when the student was enrolled on at least a half-time basis. Married taxpayers must file a joint return to qualify for the deduction.
4.D
This answer is correct. When using the indirect approach to determine cash flows from operating activities, noncash deductions from net income should be added back to determine cash flows from operating activities. Since the deferred income tax expense did not use cash but was subtracted in determining net income, it is proper to add it back to net income in cash flows from operating activities.
