What are the advantages of an audit?
Auditing is the process of verifying the validity of a company's various
financial statements. Many renowned experts have defined auditing from
their own perspectives. Below are the thoughts of some of the authors
who commented on their respective opinions.
According to Standard Audit Practice-I, an audit examines a commercial
business, whether big or small. This is done by a team of experienced
professionals who thoroughly study the accounting books and then
present a cumulative valuation.
According to the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India, the main
objective of an audit is to study all financial and non-financial
performance of an organisation and evaluate all financial records and
details. The audit process involves gathering as much evidence as
possible to evaluate financial records to evaluate their opinions and
judgments.
