Audit II Chapter 4 outlines the acquisition and payment cycle, covering how acquisitions of goods and services and related cash disbursements are evaluated for fair presentation under accounting standards. The chapter organizes learning around identifying transaction classes and affected accounts, mapping business functions to the documents and records used, and understanding internal control. It details how to assess control risk and plan tests of controls and substantive tests of transactions, then extends to the audit risk model for tests of details of balances for accounts payable, including out-of-period liability testing. It also addresses analytical procedures and evaluating the reliability of vendors’ invoices, vendors’ statements, and confirmation evidence.
