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.

Your skin wrinkles if you stay in the bathtub a long time because the outermost layer of skin (which consists of dead keratin) swells when it absorbs water. It is tightly attached to the skin below it, so it compensates for the increased area by wrinkling. This happens to the hands and feet because they have the thickest layer of dead keratin cells.

There can actually be a 25-hour time difference between certain locations in the world. The International Date Line passes between the islands of Samoa and American Samoa. It is not a straight line, but "zig-zags" around various island chains. Therefore, Samoa and nearby islands have one date, while American Samoa and nearby islands are one day behind. Daylight saving time is used in some islands, but not in others—further shifting the hours out of sync with natural time.
