15 May 2012 For 1 & 3: Use analytical procedures.

For ex. In case of a EPC company, compare the Total expenses in their engineering & service division to the departmental revenue. Compare & analyze wrt the industry standards.

For no.4, you ought to understand the statue & then apply your cognitive skills on the info produced by your client.

I'm certain I've not covered all the bases - these kind of Qs cannot be answered on a forum.
