GENERAL PRINCILES OF AUDITING




            Internal Control In Smaller Entities








            Control Environment


                    • Entirely depends on tone at the top (everyone is close to

                       the top ad they do what they see)


                    • Pressure to deliver (no review of work, employees

                       assigned to tasks they have no experience in etc.)


                    • No separate departments (human resources, creditors,


                       debtors, cashbook etc.)


            Risk Assessment Process



                    • Unlikely to be formal risk committees/ officers or risk

                       assessment processes.


                    • No time and resources (everyone is busy working)
