TYPES OF AUDIT
Three types of audit are the main ones: operational audits, compliance audits, and audits of financial statements.
Operational audits is a review of any part of an organization’s operating procedure and methods for the purpose of evaluating efficiency and effectiveness. At the completion of an operational audit, recommendations to management for improving operations are normally expected. In operational auditing, the reviews are not limited to accounting. They can include the evaluation of organization structure, computer operation, production methods, marketing, and any other area in which the auditor is qualified. In this sense, operational auditing is more similar to management consulting then to what is generally required as auditing.
Compliance audits. The purpose of the compliance audits is to determine whether the auditee is following specific procedures or rules set down by some higher authority. A compliance auditing could include determining whether accounting personnel are following prescribed procedures, reviewing wage rates for compliance with minimum laws, or examining contractual agreements with bankers and other lenders, etc.
Audits of financial statements. This type of auditing is conducted to determine whether the overall financial statements are stated in accordance with specific criteria. The assumption underlying an audit of financial statements is that they will be used by different groups for different purposes. Normally, the criteria are generally accepted accounting principles.
