Various Reporting Situations. Assume that the auditors encountered the following separate situations when deciding on the report

to issue for the current-year financial statements. (If the kind of opinion depends on the reason for the scope limitation (if applicable), the degree of materiality, and/or the pervasiveness of the matter discussed, then choose an answer choice that encompasses the two possible opinion types.) 1. The auditors decided that sufficient appropriate evidence could not be obtained to complete the audit of significant investments the 2. The entity failed to capitalize lease assets and obligations but explained them fully in the notes to the financial statements. These 3. The entity is defending a lawsuit on product liability claims. (Customers allege that power saw safety guards were improperly entity held in a foreign entity lease obligations meet the criteria for capitalization under ASC 840. installed.) All facts about the lawsuit are disclosed in the notes to the financial statements, but the auditors believe the entity should record a loss based on a probable settlement mentioned by the entity's attorneys 4. The entity hired the auditors after taking inventory on December 31. The accounting records and other evidence are not reliable enough to enable the auditors to have sufficient evidence about the proper inventory amount. 5. The FASB requires the energy company to present supplementary oil and gas reserve information outside the basic financial statements. The auditors find that this information, which is not required as a part of the basic financial statements, has been omitted 6. The auditors are group auditors of the parent company, but they reviewed the component auditors' work and reputation and decide not to take responsibility for the work of the component auditors on three subsidiary companies included in the consolidated financial statements. The component auditors' work amounts to 32 percent of the consolidated assets and 39 percent of the consolidated revenues 7. The entity changed its depreciation method from units of production to straight line, and its auditors believe the straight-line method is the more appropriate method in the circumstances. The change, fully explained in the notes to the financial statements, has a material effect on the year-to-year comparability of the comparative financial statements. 8. Because the entity has experienced significant operating losses and has had to obtain waivers of debt payment requirements from its lenders, the auditors decide that there is substantial doubt that the entity can continue as a going concern. The entity has fully described all problems in a note in the financial statements and the auditors believe that, while material, the uncertainty is not serious enough to warrant a disclaimer of opinion.

According to brutus, which form of government (a large national republic or a confederation of small republics) is more likely t
poizon [28]

According to brutus, A confederation of small republics is more likely to preserve and protect personal liberties, because as the people are the sovereign, and their sentiments are communicated by themselves which is why it must be limited so that the people can conveniently assemble and debate.

  • The large republics could cancel out the voices of the people and states and the authority of the states, because they are bigger in size and could gain more power and could infringe on state sovereignty, which would infringe on the peoples' liberties

Brutus favors a true confederation, which would be: a number of independent states entering , for conducting certain general concerns, in which they have a common interest, leaving the management of their internal and local affairs to go and their separate governments.

In our American adversarial judicial system, attorneys represent both the suspect and the people. Frequently, defense attorneys
kolbaska11 [484]

Answer Explanation:

Attorneys finds it more convenient to advocate for prosecutors or the police whom are believed to be upholding law and order in the society but may find it difficult to defend a guilty person against serious charges. But it is worthy to note that the failure of these attorneys to advocate for both parties can permit the law enforcement to trample on the liberty of anyone and everyone, even those that may be innocent.
