A.

The Reliability Factor is being determined by using the reliability factor table, with the risk of incorrect acceptance of 5% and 0 overstatements so that the sample size and sampling interval are being determined easily and effectively. Therefore,

*The 0 row is always used for the reliability factor in the sample size formula and for basic precision.

Considering the table given above the Reliability factor = 3.0

B. The Expansion Factor is being determined using an expansion factor table, given risk of incorrect Given acceptance of 5% Expansion factor is = 1.6 C. Sample size = (Book value of population * Reliability Factor)/(Total misstatement-(Expected misstatement*Expansion factor)) where:

Book value of the population = $3,460,000 Reliability Factor = 3.0 (calculated and showed in part A) Total misstatement (or tolerable error) = $63,460 Expected misstatement (or anticipated error) = $13,000 Expansion factor = 1.6 (calculated and shown in part B)

So, sample size = (3,460,000*3.0)/(63460-(13000*1.6)

Sample size =243.319

D. Sampling interval = Book value of population/Sample size where:

Book value of population = $3,460,000 Sample size = 243.319

So, Sampling interval = 3460000/243.319

= 14220.01
