Gain a better understanding of audit confirmation best practices and real-life examples from an accounting and finance perspective.
This information will help you use confirmations more efficiently and effectively, including avoiding common issues that can result in peer review and enforcement findings. Efficiency is enhanced by evaluating whether confirmations are necessary, evaluating the necessary sample size, and how the confirmations should be transmitted. Confirming other information when appropriate and validating recipients and responses can improve confirmation effectiveness.
