課程概述 |
This course is designed to provide students with a deeper understanding of topics covered in the first auditing course, primarily by analyzing real cases on the subject of auditing issues facing the accounting profession. To expose students to real life situations involving fraudulent financial reporting to heighten sensitivities to the possibility of fraud, the instructor will provide an introduction of fraud related concepts before case presentation for each topic to be discussed in class each week. Topics covered include, audit of high-risk accounts (S2), internal control issues (S3), ethical responsibilities of accountants (S4), ethical responsibilities of independent auditors (S5), professional roles (S6), professional issues (S7), and classical litigation cases (S8). |
|
課程目標 |
The course objectives are as follows:
a. To enhance students?understanding of the fundamental concepts of the auditing discipline and fraudulent financial reporting.
b. To discuss and analyze problematic situations that auditors have dealt with in the past so that students can obtain a better understanding of how to cope constructively with such scenarios in the future.
c. To increase students?awareness of the key ethical issues that audit practitioners face.

Course Routine
Because this course is a seminar, attendance and participation by all members in class is expected and required. The course uses cases from the Knapp text that are from real life. They are not hypothetical. They cover many practical issues of accounting and auditing practice, and many phases of a typical audit. A typical class format is as follows:
Introduction to concept related to fraudulent financial reporting by professor (if needed)
Group presentation and discussion of case
Summary/wrap-up by professor
That is, class sessions will consist of lectures by instructor, group case presentation and discussion. The instructor will typically lecture the key concepts related to fraudulent financial reporting covered every class. Group case presentation for each topic will then be discussed in class. The group is usually formed by two class members, and you can find your own group. Each member of the class is expected to read the case material, to be able to provide input to these case discussions, and to ask questions or provide comments that add to class discussion.
Grade Determination
Course grades will be calculated as follows:
?Group case presentation (50%)
?Case written evaluation (20%)
?Class participation (20%)
?Attendance (10%)
Discussion, Presentations, Assignment and Participation
Discussion leader responsibilities will be evenly divided among the class. Each class member will be assigned as the discussion leader at least one or two times (depending on number of class members registered for this course). Evaluation will be based on both the written evaluation and oral presentation.
Each group that is presenting a case on a given day should prepare a written case evaluation (form is provided by instructor) about or more than 3 pages, which will be due before case presentation. Each group not presenting that day must also prepare a written one-page case summary, which is also due before case presentation. Written evaluations will be evaluated on both content and presentation, including organization. Presentation of each case should take about 30 minutes. As a presenter, you are encouraged to use visual aids (preferably Power Point) and make the group presentation interesting. Each time your group makes an oral presentation, the person(s) presenting for that day (i.e., including the person leading a class discussion of the issues) will receive a grade. The comments of fellow class members and the professor are also subject to challenge for purposes of discussion.
Each member of the class is expected to actively participate in discussion. The professor will maintain records of participation during each class, including extent and quality of participation. Each case has one or two discussion questions right after. Class members are encouraged to prepare with a response to the discussion question, along with supporting reasoning or justification.
Course Schedule
A detailed, tentative schedule for the course follows. A schedule with assignment of discussants for cases and research papers will be distributed by the second or third week of class. SC indicates short case that is normally less than 8 pages including questions, whereas NSC indicates non-short cases.
