Assumptions (presuppositions, axioms, line of reasoning, information taken for granted)

Point of View

Information (data, evidence)

Concepts and Theories

Interpretation and Inference (conclusions, solutions)

When defining a subject, Nosich (2012) believes it starts with a âfundamental and powerful conceptâ.

The fundamental and powerful concept of Auditing is âInvestigationâ.

Auditing involves an analysis (or an âinvestigationâ) of the financial statements in order to issue an opinion of whether they are presented fairly in accordance with appropriate standards.

Required: In several paragraphs, answer the following questions.

âInternal Controlsâ are discussed throughout the Auditing course. We will examine various methods of âinvestigatingâ internal controls in order to understand the important role that they play in the Auditing process. Even though it is the very beginning of the course, it is important that you start to form your own definition of internal control. Answer the questions in the prompts below to help you define and describe internal control:

The assumptions of internal control are that in order for a business process to be effective, there must be separation of duties among authorization, custody and recording of transactions. How are those controls put in place in the Sales / Accounts receivable process? To answer this question, discuss how each of those components occurs in each of the following areas (rely on your own experience as a customer and/or the rules of accounting that you already know about how a sales / accounts receivable transaction is supposed to work):

The sale

Shipping

Billing

Collection

As the auditor, how would you determine whether the process is working correctly?

What actions or events would occur if you assume the process is working correctly when it is not?

What actions or events would occur if you assume the process is not working correctly when it is actually doing so?

In personal Health:

1. Conflict resolution is inevitable whenever people live or work together. The goal of conflict resolution is to settle differences peacefully and creatively. Think back to a recent disagreement. How did you communicate your feelings to the other person involved? After reading the strategies for conflict resolution, what would you do differently?

2. Discussing/studying the functions of our reproductive systems (sexual anatomy) can be embarrassing for some students. Do you think students of this generation are more or less comfortable than their parents' generation when discussing such issues? Did either of your parents explain the menstrual cycle to you? If not, why do think they may have been uncomfortable doing so? Describe how the level of discomfort is changing in this current generation of college students?

3. It is sometimes difficult to express ourselves because of the boundaries established by gender role stereotypes (generalizations about how males and females should express themselves). List characteristics that you associate with being male. Now female. How do you think society/media has influenced your perceptions regarding the characteristics you chose? Now, suppose your son decides he wants to become a dancer. How would you feel about this? Would you willingly enroll him in dance classes, or try to discourage him? What role do you think society has played on your attitudes regarding gender role stereotyping?

4. The environment in which a child grows up has a tremendous impact on his/her psychological and social development. Think back to your childhood and list your family's strengths and weaknesses. Now list what you believe are the essential characteristics of a healthy "family" environment? How did your family compare? What can you do as a current or future parent to ensure that your child is raised in a healthy environment?
