I’m taking an undergrad auditing class right now in the US (4 more classes until I graduate) and I’ve watched so many of your videos. My book is almost useless to me, worst text ever (and this is my 5th degree, so I’ve read a lot of text books). You’re SO helpful, I’ve cited you several times in my papers, lol. Oh, and I have 100% in my class so far 😎 I appreciate you! 💖
I must say this!! I had very low marks on my first adv aud assignment. That's when I discovered you! I am so happy and am improving my grades. Thanks a ton, Amanda! Love from Canada! (cas standards)
I really appreciate this, because my professor makes no sense. I have to be searching for assistance because she doesn't lecture at all, so i am very grateful for this.
Wanted to say thank you for your audit lectures. Got my results today, I passed my Audit and assurance paper because of them! Thanks. God bless you! ♥️ From mauritius.

Amanda i want to tell you that i was always thinking that there should be videos on audit i.e practical areas of audit . I have been passionate about auditing but didnt get many work opportunity. Your video is so so useful.
Hi Pooja - a video about how to get some work experience is on my list. It is very difficult right now with a very competitive job market making it extra difficult for students 😢
Well done, DOC, well articulated as always. Here is a small scenario and as as an asider, what happens, assuming on a bad day, in a Bank, my familiar former Industry, there is a cash shortage with one or more of the Tellers/Cashiers when an Audit is actually underway elsewhere in the same organisation, how is that supposed to be handled by the Auditors and probably Management as well. (Is it supposed to be mentioned in the final report? for example.....excetra), Who is appropriate at this point to trace the shortage? And assuming its not even recovered on that particular day?....Lots of love from Zim!!!
Hi Bvumayi - this is every bank manager's worst nightmare when a teller is short at the end of the day. I would expect that the bank has internal processes to follow as soon as they identify a short - and it should be a same day investigation. This would include going back through ALL of the day's transactions to try and find out where the teller accidentally gave out more money. The teller, supervisor and bank manager would likely have to write reports about what happened and submit them to head office. This would also be a time where they may bring in internal auditors. As the external auditor - I would need to understand the internal controls / policies & procedures in place to handle a teller being short. Then review a large sample of instances where this had occurred and review all of the supporting documentation that should have been produced at the time. As to whether it is mentioned in the final report - if it was the USA, then yes because of SOX404 reporting - there would have to be disclosure of a material weakness in internal controls. So it depends on whether internal control reporting is required as part of the audit report (I admit, I'm not sure of what the rules are in Zimbabwe)
@@amandalovestoaudit thanks Doc, Amanda for a detailed response. The process followed in Zim borrows a lot from your answer and i am glad we are copying a lot of good Audit traits and skills from you our big Sisters in the Global markets. Good weekend Doc, cheers for now
Highly appreciated.. thank you so much for giving us the detailed informations for cash balances... Need your suggestion that if we are reviewing the bank or cash reconciliations and that reconciliation has material and many transactions (material can come but many transactions should not come in the reconciliation. Like 10, or 15 items ) shall we take one or two samples depending on the materiality to check it back to the source documents and in detail about the cutt off and for professional scepticism.? Appreciate in advance for the guidance.
Hi Shahzad - a great question :) If you believe there is a high risk of misstatement around cash because of poor internal controls - it could be worth doing some testing. But remember, when you are testing revenue, expenses etc - you're also testing cash - so be careful not to double up.
sorry to be offtopic but does any of you know a tool to log back into an Instagram account?? I was stupid lost my login password. I appreciate any assistance you can give me
Thank you very much for your videos! You have the best content, I couldn't find anywhere how to audit specific accounts, even my CPA material doesn't cover this topic very well.
Hy Ma'am I watched this video and it's really helpful thank you. But I have a question I'm going to be doing audit of an organization that deals in foreign currency and have foreign transactions as well are there any special audit procedures that i need to follow?
In conducting a cash audit, can doubtful cash transactions be taken into account in making an unqualified opinion? even though the final value on the balance sheet after bank reconciliation matches the bank's book? What materiality account is used, is it cash or expense?
Hi Pajar - what sort of doubtful transactions are there? If it is deemed not material - then you can still give an unqualified opinion. As for the materiality - I’d use whatever you determined the performance materiality for the cash account.
