The auditing profession has seen substantial changes in the last few years. For example, the AICPA and the IAASB have issued clarified standards that harmonize auditing standards in the U.S. (for non-public entities) and internationally. The Committee of Sponsoring Organizations (COSO) of the Treadway Commission has issued an updated Internal Control–Integrated Framework. The AICPA recently issued new audit sampling guidance. Prepare your students for these changes by using Johnstone/Gramling/Rittenberg's Auditing a Risk-Based Approach to Conducting a Quality Audit, 9th edition. auditing 9e reflects the clarified auditing standards and the newest PCAOB standards, discusses COSO's updated Internal Control–Integrated Framework, integrates discussion of fraud risk throughout the text, and features entirely new and significantly revised end-of-chapter problems. In addition, students will gain valuable experience by using the professional ACL auditing software that is packaged with each new text. The new edition also offers CengageNOW as an online homework solution. Auditing 9e helps your students understand the full range of auditing issues in the evolving global environment.
