All rights reserved. 1-1 Audit and accounting final and proposed standards Final standards, interpretations, and regulations AICPA Auditing Standards Board Statement on Auditing Standards Statement on Auditing Standards (SAS) No. 136, Forming an Opinion and Reporting on Financial Statements of Employee Benefit Plans Subject to ERISA Issue date July 2019 Background According to the AICPA report Enhancing Audit Quality, 2017 Highlights and Progress, enhanced oversight of audits of employee benefit plans (EBPs) subject to the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA) found troubling levels of nonconformity with the standards and with the two primary areas challenging EBP audit practitioners that follow: . 20% of engagements had material nonconformity related to improper use of system and organization controls (SOC) reports and certifications. 50% of engagements had material nonconformity related to inadequate or no documentation. These findings prompted the ASB to propose a new audit standard for reporting on EBP audits subject to ERISA. The proposal sought to: . help auditors better understand their responsibilities with respect to EBP audits and . provide financial statement users with more information about auditors’ responsibilities. SAS No. 136 creates a new AU-C section 703 in AICPA Professional Standards and addresses the auditor’s responsibility to form an opinion and report on the audit of financial statements of EBPs subject to ERISA. The SAS amends the form and content of the auditor’s report issued as a result of an audit of ERISA plan financial statements. This SAS applies to audits of single employer, multiple employer, and multiemployer plans subject to ERISA. It applies to an audit of a complete set of general-purpose financial statements of EBPs subject to ERISA, and includes performance requirements specific to auditing ERISA plans relating to engagement acceptance, audit risk assessment and response relating to plan provisions, communication of reportable findings to those charged with governance, responsibilities relating to the ERISA-required supplemental schedules, etc. © 2019 Association of International Certified Professional Accountants. All rights reserved. 1-2 Main provisions and significant changes To enhance the communicative value and transparency of the auditor’s report, SAS No. 136 creates a new reporting model for audits of ERISA plans in the following ways: . It changes the form and content of the auditor’s report when management elects to exclude from the audit certain investment information held and certified by a qualified institution. It includes incremental performance requirements to effect certain new reporting requirements in addition to those currently set forth in the existing AU-C sections in AICPA Professional Standards. Effective date The SAS is effective for audits of ERISA plan financial statements for periods ending on or after December 15, 2020. Early implementation is not permitted. New resources (the “At a Glance” document and Frequently Asked Questions) are available.

The ASB believes the standard will benefit financial statements users by providing transparency related to the auditor’s responsibility for other information when the auditor has obtained all other information at the date of the auditor’s report on the financial statements. SAS No. 137 is expected to reduce diversity in practice with respect to information and documents within the scope of this SAS.

  • Basic Bookkeeping and Reimbursable Services
    Basic Bookkeeping and Reimbursable Services Introduction to bookkeeping Bookkeeping is involved in the recording of a company’s transactions. The preferred method of bookkeeping is the double-entry method. This means that every transaction will be documented at least two ways. For example, if a company borrows $10,000 from its bank… 1. An increase of $10,000 must be recorded in the company’s Cash account, and 2. An increase of $10,000 must be recorded in the company’s Loans Payable account. The accounts containing the transactions are located in the company’s general ledger. A simple list of the general ledger accounts is known as the chart of accounts. Prior to inexpensive computers and software, small businesses manually recorded its transactions in journals. Next, the amounts in the journals were posted to the accounts in the general ledger. Today, software has greatly reduced the journalizing and posting. For example, when today’s software is used to prepare a sales invoice, it will automatically record the two or more effects into the general ledger accounts. The software is also able to report an enormous amount of additional information ranging from the detail for each customer to the company’s financial statements. Accounts General ledger accounts are used for sorting and storing the company’s transactions. Examples of accounts include Cash, Account Receivable, Accounts Payable, Loans Payable, Advertising Expense, Reimbursable Services Received, Interest Expense, and perhaps hundreds or thousands more. The amounts in the company’s general ledger accounts will be used to prepare a company’s financial statements such as its balance sheet and income statement.

  • Chapter 3 CT 1. A. If Inventory Is Purchased with Cash, Then There Is
    Chapter 3 CT 1. a. If inventory is purchased with cash, then there is no change in the current ratio. If inventory is purchased on credit, then there is a decrease in the current ratio if it was initially greater than 1.0. b. Reducing accounts payable with cash increases the current ratio if it was initially greater than 1.0. c. Reducing short-term debt with cash increases the current ratio if it was initially greater than 1.0. d. As long-term debt approaches maturity, the principal repayment and the remaining interest expense become current liabilities. Thus, if debt is paid off with cash, the current ratio increases if it was initially greater than 1.0. If the debt has not yet become a current liability, then paying it off will reduce the current ratio since current liabilities are not affected. e. Reduction of accounts receivables and an increase in cash leaves the current ratio unchanged. f. Inventory sold at cost reduces inventory and raises cash, so the current ratio is unchanged. g. Inventory sold for a profit raises cash in excess of the inventory recorded at cost, so the current ratio increases. 3. A current ratio of 0.50 means that the firm has twice as much in current liabilities as it does in current assets; the firm potentially has poor liquidity. If pressed by its short-term creditors and suppliers for immediate payment, the firm might have a difficult time meeting its obligations. A current ratio of 1.50 means the firm has 50% more current assets than it does current liabilities.

  • Chapter 2 Current Liabilities and Contingencies
    Chapter 2 Current Liabilities and Contingencies CURRENT LIABILITIES What is a liability? The question, “What is a liability?” is not easy to answer. For example, one might ask whether preferred stock is a liability or an ownership claim. The first reaction is to say that preferred stock is in fact an ownership claim and should be reported as part of stockholders’ equity. In fact, preferred stock has many elements of debt as well. The issuer (and in some cases the holder) often has the right to call the stock within a specific period of time—making it similar to a repayment of principal. The dividend is in many cases almost guaranteed (cumulative provision)—making it look like interest. And preferred stock is but one of many financial instruments that are difficult to classify. To help resolve some of these controversies, the FASB, as part of its conceptual framework project, defined liabilities as “probable future sacrifices of economic benefits arising from present obligations of a particular entity to transfer assets or provide services to other entities in the future as a result of past transactions or events.” In other words, a liability has three essential characteristics: It is a present obligation that entails settlement by probable future transfer or use of cash, goods, or services. It is an unavoidable obligation. The transaction or other event creating the obligation has already occurred. Because liabilities involve future disbursements of assets or services, one of their most important features is the date on which they are payable. Currently maturing obligations must be satisfied promptly and in the ordinary course of business if operations are to be continued.
