Auditing & Assurance Services

As  auditors, we are trained to investigate beyond appearances to determine  the underlying facts—in other words, to look beneath the surface.  Whether evaluating the Enron and World-Com scandals of the early 2000s,  the financial crisis of 2007–2008, the Wirecard fraud in 2020 or  present-day issues and challenges related to significant estimation  uncertainty, understanding the auditor’s responsibility related to  fraud, maintaining a clear perspective, probing for details, and  understanding the big picture are indispensable to effective auditing.  With the availability of greater levels of qualitative and quantitative  information (“Big Data”), the need for technical skills and challenges  facing today’s auditor is greater than ever. The Louwers, Bagley, Blay,  Strawser, and Thibodeau team has dedicated years of experience in the  auditing field to this new edition of Auditing & Assurance Services,  supplying the necessary investigative tools for future auditors.
