Abstract: | This paper discusses the antecedents of and rationale, known as Strategic-Systems Auditing (SSA), describing the conceptual foundation and key elements of SSA. It is observed that the auditor employing SSA conceives the audit as a process of evidence-driven, belief-based, risk assessment. Facets of this process are illustrated, incl. how the auditor, by acquiring a rich understanding of how and how well management is executing its business-model, develops rich expectations of future financial statement amounts and disclosures etc. |
