when 118XiStB. Mi5Statements can arlse from fraud or error 2nd are considered material if, individually or In
the aggr8g8te. they could reasonably be exp8Cted to intluence the èconomic decisions of users taken on the
basis of thase financial ststements.
The extpnt to which our procedures are capable of detecting iffeguladties. Including fraud is detailed below:
The audit wa$ planned on the basis that Ihe tssllng undertaken and procedures carried out would have
reasonable expectation of detecting any instan￿$ of irregularity including fraud. The plan involved assessing
the risk of the financi81 $t8tements contalning matorial mlsstatements t3￿ng Into account varlous 18clors
such as the Gontrol systems in ￿8C8, the standard of record ke8plng and an assessment of the influence and
role of the stakeholders Involved. The audit plan was followed and benefitted from the audlt toams
knowledge of the cllent. They consldered how fraud may occur 8nd where the financial stataments may be
susceptible lo grror.
Suitabl8 transaction sampl8 tesllng was made on the high risk areas of thè financial statem8nts. Enqulries
were made of the company directors for information and explanatlons as required during the course of tha
audlt and any contentious areas appropriately challenged io 8n8ure thet sufficlent audit evldence was
obtalned.
The procedurès and testlng undertaken as a result of our risk assessments were deemed sufflcient to
rdentfy material errors for which adjustment was then made in the financbal statemènls. There is however no
guarante8 Ihat all errors, Including those related to fraud, would be Identified as part of the audit.
