Question 1

Using statistical sampling to assist in verifying the year-end accounts payable balance, an auditor has accumulated the following data:

Number of
accounts
Book
balance
Balance
determined by
the auditor
Population:4,000$5,000,000?
Sample:200$250,000$300,000
Projecting the misstatement to the population, the auditor's estimate of year-end accounts payable balance would be
◦ $5,050,000.
◦ $5,125,000.
◦ $6,000,000.
◦ $6,150,000.

Question 2

When the sample selection is done using probability proportional to size sample selection (PPS),
◦ the actual number of units selected for testing may be more than the computed sample size.
◦ the auditor must use systematic selection, rather than random selection of dollars.
◦ population items with a zero recorded balance have no chance of being selected.
◦ negative balances must be treated as positive balances.
