Auditing and Assurance Services [with Online Learning Center Access Code]

by Timothy J. Louwers, Robert J. Ramsay, David H. Sinason

As of its publication date, this text is the most up-to-date auditing text on the market. It's been written so that it is current with all issues inherent in accounting and auditing practice, particularly in public accounting firms including coverage of the creation of the Public Companies Accounting Oversight Board, the passage of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, and all of the major pronouncements and exposure drafts issued by the AICPA through Summer 2003. It’s also a leader in fraud coverage and is accompanied by the Apollo Shoes Casebook, the only standalone FRAUD audit case on the market (available online on the text website). The text is also designed to provide flexibility for instructors; the twelve chapters focus on the Auditing Process while the eight modules provide additional topics that can be taught at the instructors’ discretion without interrupting the flow of the text.

The author made the otherwise easy to understand concepts much harder unnecessarily. Not a very book if you are a beginner in Financial Auditing.

Again it's been revised and updated and is now worthless. Double grrr! I won't be destroying the binding on this one however. I'm just going to host a bonfire once this term is over. All overpriced books are welcome.

It's a very thorough textbook. The Auditing Insights help to break up the longer passages and bring real-life relevant examples to light.

This was thrilling.
