Arizona State University
The professionals here at Good Life Accounting Firm strive to remain vigilante and up to
date on the rules, regulations, and compliances to give our clients continuing confidence in
the firm's ability to meet their financial needs. This executive summary will outline the
attestation risk model and how it is implemented to the specific engagement and outline
the framework regarding the Standards for Attestation Engagements (SSAE).
Creating a risk model is vital to providing the highest level of competence for our clients. For
this examination engagement a thorough assessment of the risks that will consists of control
risks, inherent risks, and detection risks. Becoming proficient in the attestation risk model is
vital to client confidence and the firm's reputation.
Examination engagement of financial statements is contingent on the standards found
under SSAE. The highest level of assurance is provided to the client's financial reporting. A
rigorous assessment of the financial statements and their compliance to the financial
reporting framework that is found in the guides and standards such as General Accepted
Accounting Practices or the International Financial Reporting Standards. The examination
engagement has similarities to a financial audit, but the examination engagement will
adhere to additional requirements found under the SSAE standards.
Determination of the assessment risks in this examination engagement are based on:
Control risk: which is the risk that a misstatement due to error or fraud that could occur in
an assertion and that could be material, individually or in combination with other
misstatements, will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis by the company's
internal control. Control risk is a function of the effectiveness of the design and operation of
internal control. (PCAOB, 2023). Factors that should be analyzed are:
If there is insufficient monitoring leading to misstatements in reconciliations and reviews.
The internal controls show weakness leading to an environment with a heightened control
risk.
Inherent risk: which refers to the susceptibility of an assertion to a misstatement, due to
error or fraud, that could be material, individually or in combination with other
misstatements, before consideration of any related controls. (PCAOB, 2023). Factors that
should be analyzed are:
Conditions in the industries that the client operates. Changes in rules and regulations in the
industry can lead to complicated transactions that can lead to higher risks.
Reoccurring misstatements and errors can lead to a higher risk.
Detection risk: is the risk that the procedures performed by the auditor will not detect a
misstatement that exists and that could be material, individually or in combination with
other misstatements. Detection risk is affected by (1) the effectiveness of the substantive
procedures and (2) their application by the auditor, i.e., whether the procedures were
performed with due professional care. (PCAOB,2023).
Incorrect auditing procedures can lead to a higher risk of misstatement.
Auditing sampling can be risky because the samples selected do not represent the entire
body of evidence.
While each element is vital to risk assessment, inherent risk is crucial to the multiple
financial statements that are analyzed. Understanding the client's needs, the industry that
they are in, thetransactions they perform, the regulations they must follow, the auditor
then can focus their course of action towards the area that misstatements are likely to be
found.

attestation risk model and how it is implemented to the specific engagement and outline
the framework regarding the Standards for Attestation Engagements (SSAE).
Creating a risk model is vital to providing the highest level of competence for our clients. For
this examination engagement a thorough assessment of the risks that will consists of control
risks, inherent risks, and detection risks. Becoming proficient in the attestation risk model is
vital to client confidence and the firm's reputation.
Examination engagement of financial statements is contingent on the standards found
under SSAE. The highest level of assurance is provided to the client's financial reporting. A
rigorous assessment of the financial statements and their compliance to the financial
reporting framework that is found in the guides and standards such as General Accepted
Accounting Practices or the International Financial Reporting Standards. The examination
engagement has similarities to a financial audit, but the examination engagement will
adhere to additional requirements found under the SSAE standards.
Determination of the assessment risks in this examination engagement are based on:
Control risk: which is the risk that a misstatement due to error or fraud that could occur in
an assertion and that could be material, individually or in combination with other
misstatements, will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis by the company's
internal control. Control risk is a function of the effectiveness of the design and operation of
internal control. (PCAOB, 2023). Factors that should be analyzed are:
If there is insufficient monitoring leading to misstatements in reconciliations and reviews.
The internal controls show weakness leading to an environment with a heightened control
risk.
Inherent risk: which refers to the susceptibility of an assertion to a misstatement, due to
error or fraud, that could be material, individually or in combination with other
misstatements, before consideration of any related controls. (PCAOB, 2023). Factors that
should be analyzed are:
Conditions in the industries that the client operates. Changes in rules and regulations in the
industry can lead to complicated transactions that can lead to higher risks.
Reoccurring misstatements and errors can lead to a higher risk.
Detection risk: is the risk that the procedures performed by the auditor will not detect a
misstatement that exists and that could be material, individually or in combination with
other misstatements. Detection risk is affected by (1) the effectiveness of the substantive
procedures and (2) their application by the auditor, i.e., whether the procedures were
performed with due professional care. (PCAOB,2023).
Incorrect auditing procedures can lead to a higher risk of misstatement.
Auditing sampling can be risky because the samples selected do not represent the entire
body of evidence.
While each element is vital to risk assessment, inherent risk is crucial to the multiple
financial statements that are analyzed. Understanding the client's needs, the industry that
they are in, thetransactions they perform, the regulations they must follow, the auditor
then can focus their course of action towards the area that misstatements are likely to be
found.

Determination of the assessment risks in this examination engagement are based on:
Control risk: which is the risk that a misstatement due to error or fraud that could occur in
an assertion and that could be material, individually or in combination with other
misstatements, will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis by the company's
internal control. Control risk is a function of the effectiveness of the design and operation of
internal control. (PCAOB, 2023). Factors that should be analyzed are:
If there is insufficient monitoring leading to misstatements in reconciliations and reviews.
The internal controls show weakness leading to an environment with a heightened control
risk.
Inherent risk: which refers to the susceptibility of an assertion to a misstatement, due to
error or fraud, that could be material, individually or in combination with other
misstatements, before consideration of any related controls. (PCAOB, 2023). Factors that
should be analyzed are:
Conditions in the industries that the client operates. Changes in rules and regulations in the
industry can lead to complicated transactions that can lead to higher risks.
Reoccurring misstatements and errors can lead to a higher risk.
Detection risk: is the risk that the procedures performed by the auditor will not detect a
misstatement that exists and that could be material, individually or in combination with
other misstatements. Detection risk is affected by (1) the effectiveness of the substantive
procedures and (2) their application by the auditor, i.e., whether the procedures were
performed with due professional care. (PCAOB,2023).
Incorrect auditing procedures can lead to a higher risk of misstatement.
Auditing sampling can be risky because the samples selected do not represent the entire
body of evidence.
While each element is vital to risk assessment, inherent risk is crucial to the multiple
financial statements that are analyzed. Understanding the client's needs, the industry that
they are in, thetransactions they perform, the regulations they must follow, the auditor
then can focus their course of action towards the area that misstatements are likely to be
found.

Determination of the assessment risks in this examination engagement are based on:
Control risk: which is the risk that a misstatement due to error or fraud that could occur in
an assertion and that could be material, individually or in combination with other
misstatements, will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis by the company's
internal control. Control risk is a function of the effectiveness of the design and operation of
internal control. (PCAOB, 2023). Factors that should be analyzed are:
If there is insufficient monitoring leading to misstatements in reconciliations and reviews.
The internal controls show weakness leading to an environment with a heightened control
risk.
Inherent risk: which refers to the susceptibility of an assertion to a misstatement, due to
error or fraud, that could be material, individually or in combination with other
misstatements, before consideration of any related controls. (PCAOB, 2023). Factors that
should be analyzed are:
Conditions in the industries that the client operates. Changes in rules and regulations in the
industry can lead to complicated transactions that can lead to higher risks.
Reoccurring misstatements and errors can lead to a higher risk.
Detection risk: is the risk that the procedures performed by the auditor will not detect a
misstatement that exists and that could be material, individually or in combination with
other misstatements. Detection risk is affected by (1) the effectiveness of the substantive
procedures and (2) their application by the auditor, i.e., whether the procedures were
performed with due professional care. (PCAOB,2023).
Incorrect auditing procedures can lead to a higher risk of misstatement.
Auditing sampling can be risky because the samples selected do not represent the entire
body of evidence.
While each element is vital to risk assessment, inherent risk is crucial to the multiple
financial statements that are analyzed. Understanding the client's needs, the industry that
they are in, thetransactions they perform, the regulations they must follow, the auditor
then can focus their course of action towards the area that misstatements are likely to be
found.

Determination of the assessment risks in this examination engagement are based on:
Control risk: which is the risk that a misstatement due to error or fraud that could occur in
an assertion and that could be material, individually or in combination with other
misstatements, will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis by the company's
internal control. Control risk is a function of the effectiveness of the design and operation of
internal control. (PCAOB, 2023). Factors that should be analyzed are:
If there is insufficient monitoring leading to misstatements in reconciliations and reviews.
The internal controls show weakness leading to an environment with a heightened control
risk.
Inherent risk: which refers to the susceptibility of an assertion to a misstatement, due to
error or fraud, that could be material, individually or in combination with other
misstatements, before consideration of any related controls. (PCAOB, 2023). Factors that
should be analyzed are:
Conditions in the industries that the client operates. Changes in rules and regulations in the
industry can lead to complicated transactions that can lead to higher risks.
Reoccurring misstatements and errors can lead to a higher risk.
Detection risk: is the risk that the procedures performed by the auditor will not detect a
misstatement that exists and that could be material, individually or in combination with
other misstatements. Detection risk is affected by (1) the effectiveness of the substantive
procedures and (2) their application by the auditor, i.e., whether the procedures were
performed with due professional care. (PCAOB,2023).
Incorrect auditing procedures can lead to a higher risk of misstatement.
Auditing sampling can be risky because the samples selected do not represent the entire
body of evidence.
While each element is vital to risk assessment, inherent risk is crucial to the multiple
financial statements that are analyzed. Understanding the client's needs, the industry that
they are in, thetransactions they perform, the regulations they must follow, the auditor
then can focus their course of action towards the area that misstatements are likely to be
found.

Determination of the assessment risks in this examination engagement are based on:
Control risk: which is the risk that a misstatement due to error or fraud that could occur in
an assertion and that could be material, individually or in combination with other
misstatements, will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis by the company's
internal control. Control risk is a function of the effectiveness of the design and operation of
internal control. (PCAOB, 2023). Factors that should be analyzed are:
If there is insufficient monitoring leading to misstatements in reconciliations and reviews.
The internal controls show weakness leading to an environment with a heightened control
risk.
Inherent risk: which refers to the susceptibility of an assertion to a misstatement, due to
error or fraud, that could be material, individually or in combination with other
misstatements, before consideration of any related controls. (PCAOB, 2023). Factors that
should be analyzed are:
Conditions in the industries that the client operates. Changes in rules and regulations in the
industry can lead to complicated transactions that can lead to higher risks.
Reoccurring misstatements and errors can lead to a higher risk.
Detection risk: is the risk that the procedures performed by the auditor will not detect a
misstatement that exists and that could be material, individually or in combination with
other misstatements. Detection risk is affected by (1) the effectiveness of the substantive
procedures and (2) their application by the auditor, i.e., whether the procedures were
performed with due professional care. (PCAOB,2023).
Incorrect auditing procedures can lead to a higher risk of misstatement.
Auditing sampling can be risky because the samples selected do not represent the entire
body of evidence.
While each element is vital to risk assessment, inherent risk is crucial to the multiple
financial statements that are analyzed. Understanding the client's needs, the industry that
they are in, thetransactions they perform, the regulations they must follow, the auditor
then can focus their course of action towards the area that misstatements are likely to be
found.

risk.
Inherent risk: which refers to the susceptibility of an assertion to a misstatement, due to
error or fraud, that could be material, individually or in combination with other
misstatements, before consideration of any related controls. (PCAOB, 2023). Factors that

misstatements, before consideration of any related controls. (PCAOB, 2023). Factors that
should be analyzed are:
Conditions in the industries that the client operates. Changes in rules and regulations in the
industry can lead to complicated transactions that can lead to higher risks.
Reoccurring misstatements and errors can lead to a higher risk.
Detection risk: is the risk that the procedures performed by the auditor will not detect a
misstatement that exists and that could be material, individually or in combination with
other misstatements. Detection risk is affected by (1) the effectiveness of the substantive
procedures and (2) their application by the auditor, i.e., whether the procedures were
performed with due professional care. (PCAOB,2023).
Incorrect auditing procedures can lead to a higher risk of misstatement.
Auditing sampling can be risky because the samples selected do not represent the entire
body of evidence.
While each element is vital to risk assessment, inherent risk is crucial to the multiple
financial statements that are analyzed. Understanding the client's needs, the industry that

other misstatements. Detection risk is affected by (1) the effectiveness of the substantive
procedures and (2) their application by the auditor, i.e., whether the procedures were
performed with due professional care. (PCAOB,2023).
Incorrect auditing procedures can lead to a higher risk of misstatement.
Auditing sampling can be risky because the samples selected do not represent the entire
body of evidence.
While each element is vital to risk assessment, inherent risk is crucial to the multiple
financial statements that are analyzed. Understanding the client's needs, the industry that
they are in, thetransactions they perform, the regulations they must follow, the auditor
then can focus their course of action towards the area that misstatements are likely to be
found.

Control risk: which is the risk that a misstatement due to error or fraud that could occur in
an assertion and that could be material, individually or in combination with other
misstatements, will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis by the company's
internal control. Control risk is a function of the effectiveness of the design and operation of
internal control. (PCAOB, 2023). Factors that should be analyzed are:
If there is insufficient monitoring leading to misstatements in reconciliations and reviews.
The internal controls show weakness leading to an environment with a heightened control
risk.
Inherent risk: which refers to the susceptibility of an assertion to a misstatement, due to
error or fraud, that could be material, individually or in combination with other
misstatements, before consideration of any related controls. (PCAOB, 2023). Factors that
should be analyzed are:
Conditions in the industries that the client operates. Changes in rules and regulations in the
industry can lead to complicated transactions that can lead to higher risks.
Reoccurring misstatements and errors can lead to a higher risk.
Detection risk: is the risk that the procedures performed by the auditor will not detect a
misstatement that exists and that could be material, individually or in combination with
other misstatements. Detection risk is affected by (1) the effectiveness of the substantive
procedures and (2) their application by the auditor, i.e., whether the procedures were
