Answer to Question 1

When auditors discover serious and widespread problems with a firm's statements, they offer an adverse opinion. An adverse opinion indicates that the auditor believes the financial statements are seriously flawed and that they may be misleading and unreliable. Adverse opinions are very rare, so when an auditor renders one it should set off alarm bells, warning stakeholders to view the information in the firm's financial statements with real skepticism.

Answer to Question 2
