When you are writing " Compilation based on Books of Accounts produced", in that case you only responsibility remains that the items are classified and placed accurately in the Balance Sheet. You also need to check that the prepared B/s doesn't violate the GAAP/AS.
Else you are not responsible for authencity of the items.
