Release date: 28 March 2012
A must have for auditors of charities in the Republic of Ireland, ‘Procedures
for Quality Audit for Charities 2012 (Republic of Ireland)’, is a tailored audit
programme which is compact, relevant, timely, and focuses specifically on the
real issues directly affecting these entities.
Based on, and in the same format as our landmark Procedures for Quality Audit
(PQA) toolkit, it has been specifically customised to make it suitable for the
audit of incorporated charities. The whole audit programme focuses on charities.
Every section of the file has been tailored, leaving no irrelevant questions,
checklists or work programmes.
The toolkit includes, in particular:
- A pro forma Audit Planning Memorandum specifically
tailored for charities, in Microsoft Word, to facilitate completion;
- Lead schedules for key audit areas in the audit of
charities;
- A pro forma memorandum, in Word, to facilitate your
assessment of internal controls and accounting systems in the charity;
- An extension of the popular Common Omissions Aide
Memoir, to address some of the issues concerning charities;
- A pro-forma Significant Matters section for recording and clearing audit
issues, again in Word.
It allows users to perform audits using an Excel
spreadsheets format that can be enhanced by supporting schedules and can be
linked to clients’ files.
