About this lesson
This is a 14-mark requirement that builds directly on your work in part A, requiring you to explain the specific risks you've identified and then develop tailored audit procedures to gather evidence about them. You'll work through three inventory categories—raw materials, work in progress, and finished goods—using the financial data and contextual information provided to demonstrate professional judgment about materiality, complexity, and valuation concerns. By the end of this session, you'll understand how to structure a strong justification using relevant figures and calculations, and how to write audit procedures that are specific to the client's circumstances rather than generic textbook approaches—a key skill for scoring well on Audit and Assurance case studies.
