Interpretation and Application of International Standards on Auditing

This book eliminates the complextities contained within the International Stadnards on Auditing and gets to the heart of what it is that auditing standards want from auditors. Offering practical guidance on how these often difficult to interpret standards apply to practice, the author addresses all the ISAs as reissued as part of the clarity project, giving illustrative examples of how they are applied in real life practice. Ideal for auditors and financial accountants, the book also covers the regulatory framework of auditing and provides a summary of the five ethical standards as mapped by the IAASB.
