The auditors of Dunbar Electronics want to limit the risk of material misstatement in the valuation of inventories to 8 percent.

They believe that there exists a 55 percent risk that a material misstatement could have bypassed the client’s internal control and that the inherent risk of the account is 90 percent. They also believe that the analytical procedures performed to test the assertion have a 41 percent risk of failing to detect a material misstatement.
Required:
a. Briefly discuss what is meant by audit risk, inherent risk and control risk.
b. What level of detection risk is implicit in this problem?

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.

olga55 [171]

Answer:1. $7720  

2. $7945

3. $7758

Explanation: 1. First in First out method which means the first inventory to be purchased by company will be the first to be sold.  

Total cost of Sales   = Total number of units Sold * Total Cost of inventory sold    

                                  = 100units*$5+ 300units*$5.30+ 200units*$5.35 + 450units*$5.60

                                   =$7720

Total units sold=1450  we started from first inventory which was the balance of inventory of 100 units downwards up to the 1450th unit sold that was purchased on the 26th of April by the company.

2. Last in first out method is where the last bought inventory is sold first.

Total cost of sales= Total number of units sold * Total cost of units sold =200units$*5.80+ 600units*$5.60+ 200units*$5.35+300units*$5.30+150units*$5.1

=$7945

Total units sold still 1450 but we calculated the cost from the last purchased unit from 30th April to the 1450th unit sold which was on the 12th of April.

3. Average Cost = (Sum of all costs/Total number of costs)* total units sold

                     = (($5+$5.1+$5.3+$5.35+$5.6+$5.8)/6)* 1450

=$7769.58
