Q

The differences between Test of

Detail Balances and Test of Controls for planning the sample are…..

A
Test of Detail Balances will:
Define a misstatement
Specify tolerable misstatement
Specify acceptable risk of incorrect acceptance
Estimate misstatements in the population

Test of Detail Balances will:Define attributes and exception conditions
Specify the tolerable exception rate
Specify acceptable risk of over-reliance
Estimate the population exception rate
