The firm did not perform procedures to verify this assertion beyond inquiry of management and therefore the firm did not establish a basis to conclude that the logical access to these IT systems was only controlled through this third-party hosted IT solution.

Sample too small or unsupported
The firm's approach for testing revenue included selecting a sample of transactions from certain months during the year. In determining the sample size the firm did not consider the relevant factors including the firm's established tolerable misstatement for the population the allowable risk of incorrect acceptance and the characteristics of the population of sales transactions. As a result the sample size the firm used in its test of details was too small to achieve the planned audit objective. Further the firm's selection of transactions for testing was confined to transactions from certain months of the year not the entire population of net sales. Therefore the results of these audit procedures could not be projected to the entire population. (AS 2315.16 .23 .23A and .24)
