    Transaction Testin"is an all enompassing term used b# auditors that refer to evidene

    gathering ativities direted at lasses of transations underl#ing a partiular aount balane

    assertion. ppliable "here the audit approah for a particular account balance assertion is in-dept#$

    -inomplete reported transations ? not valid (non-anal#tial in-depth approah)

    The e%tent of transation testing (in-depth approah) relating to a partiular aount balaneassertion depends on the @uantit# and @ualit# of evidene re@uired b# the auditor to form an

    opinion as to the e%tent of misstatements in the aount balane.

    - in-depth approach needed: high @uantit# of evidene re@uired$ allo"able detetion ris! is lo" andontrol ris! is high

    - in-depth approach not needed: allo"able detetion ris! is moderate or high

    6thslide:

    The assessment of ris!s of material misstatement at the finanial statement level is affeted b#

    the auditor&s understanding of the ontrol environment.

    e.g.effetive ontrol environment: auditor "ill have more onfidene in the internall#-generated audit

    evidene"ea! ontrol environment: see! more e%tensive audit evidene from substantive audit proedures

    5/ ;: the higher the @uantit# and @ualit# of evidene re@uired in relation to an

    aount balane assertion$ the greater the need for the testing of transations.

    -/ote: "hen auditors gather evidene in relation to revenue and e%pense aount balanes$ there is

    often little evidene available at the aount balane level. This means that the auditors "ill often adoptan in-depth approah for those revenue and e%pense aount balanes.

    7thslide:

    PSA %%&indiates that the higher the auditor&s assessment ris!$ the more reliable and relevant is

    the audit evidene sought b# auditor from substantive proedures. 'n effet the level of detetion ris! related diretl# to the auditor&s substantive proedures.

    Detection Risk (DR) is a funtion of the effetiveness of an auditing proedure and of its

    appliation b# the auditor.

    The deision about "hih proedures to use to ahieve a partiular audit obAetive is based on

    the auditor&s Audgment about the e%peted effetiveness and effiien# of the available

    proedures in reduing detetion ris! for speifi finanial statement assertions.

    - B : e%tensive tests of speifi finanial assertions must be onduted- 9'59 is aeptable: less substantive evidene
