Prior year Accounts of a Society has not been adopted.
Can the society adopt the current year audited accounts with a qualification in the Audit Report that Prior year Accounts are unaudited.
I am presenting the Auditing Standards accordingly. It says Auditors can Audit. What about Society can they adopt.
14. If the prior period financial statements were not audited, the auditor shall state in an Other Matter paragraph in the auditor’s report that the corresponding figures
are unaudited. Such a statement does not, however, relieve the auditor of the
requirement to obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence that the opening
balances do not contain misstatements that materially affect the current period’s
financial statements.
Need a urgent Response.
Thanks and Regards
