Answer:
a. Briefly discuss what is meant by audit risk, inherent risk and control risk.
Audit risk is the risk that the auditor expresses an inappropriate audit opinion when the financial statements are materially misstated.
Audit Risk = Inherent Risk x Control Risk x Detection Risk
Auditors will want their overall audit risk to be at an acceptable level. Inappropriate opinion will result in damages / costs
Inherent risk is the susceptibility of an assertion to a misstatement that could be material individually or when aggregated with other misstatements, assuming there were no related internal controls.
Control risk is the risk that a material misstatement, that could occur in an assertion and that could be material will not be prevented or detected and corrected on a timely basis by the entity's internal control.
b. What level of detection risk is implicit in this problem?
Detection risk is the risk that the procedures performed by the auditor to reduce audit risk to an acceptably low level will not detect a misstatement
In this case the detection risk given is 0.41.
Answer:
Testerman Construction Co.
Internal rate of return method in analyzing capital expenditure:
Present value of expenditure = $149,630
Present of cash inflows annuity = $149,630 (using 20% discount rate and present value annuity factor of 3.3251 x $45,000)
NPV = $0 (PV of cash outflow - PV of cash inflow)
Therefore, the IRR = 20%
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Investment cost = $149,630
Annual net cash flows = $45,000
Investment period = 6 years
Annuity of future cash flows = 3.3251
b) Testerman’s IRR (Internal Rate of Return) is a capital budgeting and analysis tool which determines the discount rate that makes the present value of future inflows equal to the present value of outflows from a project. This IRR helps the managers to determine the projects that add value and are worth undertaking. IRR is based on assumptions. Similar projects with the same IRR will differ in returns due to the differences in timing and the size of the cash, the amount of debts and equity used to generate the returns, and the assumption of a constant reinvestment may which IRR makes.

Answer:
15%
Explanation:
The computation of the internal rate of return is shown below:
Given that
Year Cash Flow
0 -$27,100
1 $11,100
2 $14,100
3 $10,100
The formula to compute IRR is
= IRR()
After applying the above formula, the internal rate of return is 15%
