Answer to Question 1

False

Answer to Question 2

Section 404 of SOX requires companies to include in their annual reports a statement regarding the effectiveness of internal controls and the disclosure of any material weaknesses in a firm's internal controls system. This requirement has greatly boosted the need for internal auditors and SOX compliance specialists, but more important, has enhanced the value of the internal audit function within companies, as businesses have strengthened internal controls in response to SOX.
