Carnegie Council for Ethics in International Affairs Statements on Auditing Standards (United States) In the United States, Statements on Auditing Standards provide guidance to external auditors on generally accepted auditing standards (abbreviated as GAAS) in regards to auditing a non-public company[1] entity and issuing a report. They are promulgated by the Auditing Standards Board of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA), which holds all copyright on the Standards. They are commonly abbreviated as "SAS" followed by their respective number and title. With the permission of the AICPA, the full text of Standards 1–101 has been posted on the website of the Digital Accounting Collection at the J.D. Williams Library of the University of Mississippi. Links to these full-text records appear in the List of Statements of Auditing Standards below. The American Institute of Certified Public Accountants began codifying the Statements on Auditing standards semiannually in 1976. Mark S.

Directory FRC prohibits the use of internal audit staff on the external audit team 19 Jun 2013 The FRC today introduces a measure that creates a clearer division of responsibility between internal and external audit teams to safeguard against conflicts of interest. By prohibiting auditors from using internal audit staff as “direct assistance” members of the audit team, the FRC is seeking further to ensure the independence of the external auditor and promote greater confidence in the integrity of the audit for investors. “Prohibiting direct assistance supports stakeholders’ expectation that external auditors should be free from threats to their independence. In February 2013, the FRC confirmed that it would adopt the revised international auditing standards on the external auditor’s use of work carried out by internal audit. They are intended to implement changes to the corresponding ISAs issued by the International Auditing and Assurance Standards Board (IAASB). Search all news
