Describe the reasons why you feel that the audit profession has been criticized over the current regulations
These are the reasons behind the criticism:
- The audited financial statements do not contain information about the critical estimates and other judgements made in preparing the financial statements.
- The information provided by the auditor doesn't include information on the governance and controls of the company being reported on.
- Most of the scams were the results of the failure of the auditing ( i.e. Aurthur Anderson)
- They doesn't provide useful information on the quality of audits performed by the specific firms inspected to the public.
