rclxms.gif Correct half..

The other half is: You need to understand the Company Act and if the records are keep in accordance to the Act. Any findings need to be rectify by the Secretary or else will be report to the Audit Committee for further actions.

Last resort will be to state a different opinion on the final report..
"In our opinion, the accounting and other records and the registers required by the Act to be kept by the Company and its subsidiaries of which we have
acted as auditors have been properly kept in accordance with the provisions of the Act."

Therefore as an auditor you need to know not only debit and credits but various Acts such as Company Acts, Income Tax Act, BAFIA, Anti Money Laundering Act (AMLA), Securies Commission regulations, MIA by-laws on what can an auditor do and what auditor cannot do...

Haha.. so Think before you really want to go into audit line.. the title and everything you do sounds glamour.. But how many out there are competent enough to carried out audits.. Sometimes these so called "auditors" are laughing stock as they failed to understand before engaging.

from tax point of view

expenses incurred on statutory audit is deductible under special deduction under audit expenses pursuant to rules 129/2006 smtg

any other audit (interim audit / due diligence ) expenses are not deductible smile.gif

I wouldnt use that.. Cause supervisor should only supervise right?

I felt that the title is very very misleading..

But in actual fact.. you do a lot of little things and a little of big things.... rclxub.gif

assistant manager perhaps?

i m not sure if i should ask this here.

since I m only a degree graduate, i intend to start ACCA part time this coming January. my degree exempted 9 fundamentals paper, so i still got 5 papers to go, intend to do 1 paper/semester.

so estimate 2.5 years to 3 years to complete the 5 papers. what concern me now is that i am aware that ACCA membership requires 36 months of working experience before you can apply. and if i m not wrong, if you part time study while working in big 4 allows u to include them in your 36 months working experience. do this applies to those mid-tier firms also? and how bout those small firms? or do i need to work for another 36months after i complete all the 5 papers?
appreciate if anyone can share some insights with me, cause i dont know anyone who know about this.

http://www2.accaglobal.com/documents/appro...mployer_mh1.pdf

and from this list, actually what is it for? those that need to get the 36months experience must work in this list?
*
the months u working while you studying ACCA counts towards the PER

however the 36 months requirement is the minimum requirement

and they might need you to work extra if your employer is not platinum / gold approved employer

correct me if I'm wrong
