![Page 16: Up Close and](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062411/568167a0550346895ddce9ea/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
16
Audit Program . . . The audit program should gather

The Audit Risk Model Generally Accepted Auditing
Standards establish a “model” for carrying out audits.
![Page 43: Up Close and](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062411/568167a0550346895ddce9ea/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
43
The Audit Risk Model Requires auditors to use their
judgment . . . In assessing risks, and Then in deciding what procedures
to carry out.
![Page 44: Up Close and](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062411/568167a0550346895ddce9ea/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
44
Based on . . . The auditor’s assessment of
various risks and any tests of controls, the
auditor makes judgments about kinds of evidence needed to achieve “reasonable assurance.”
![Page 45: Up Close and](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062411/568167a0550346895ddce9ea/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)

46
The risk that the auditor may unknowingly fail to appropriately modify his/her opinion on financial statements that are materially misstated.
Audit Risk (AR)
![Page 47: Up Close and](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062411/568167a0550346895ddce9ea/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)
47
The risk that an assertion is susceptible to a material misstatement, assuming there are no related controls.
Inherent Risk (IR)
![Page 48: Up Close and](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062411/568167a0550346895ddce9ea/html5/thumbnails/48.jpg)
48
The risk that a material misstatement that could occur in an assertion will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis by the entity’s internal control.
Control Risk (CR)
![Page 49: Up Close and](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062411/568167a0550346895ddce9ea/html5/thumbnails/49.jpg)
49
The risk that the auditor will not detect a material misstatement that exists in an assertion.
Detection Risk (DR)
![Page 50: Up Close and](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062411/568167a0550346895ddce9ea/html5/thumbnails/50.jpg)
50
AR = IR x CR x DR Highly judgmental The objective in an audit is to
limit audit risk (AR) to a low level, as judged by an auditor.
Mathematially

Auditors assess IR and CR along a spectrum
Maximum risk Moderate risk Low risk

52
A maximum risk assessment (i.e., 100%) means that
the auditor believes controls are unlikely to be effective; or
The evaluation of their effectiveness would be inefficient.
