Title: god awful
Review: This book is so awful that I felt compelled to write a review while reading it... the text is terribly organized and makes no sense! E.g. p. 196 says detection risk is "the risk that the auditor will not detect a material misstatement that exists in an assertion"... and then on p. 208 it says "in general the auditor can accept smaller sample sizes when detection risk is high, and the auditor should use larger sample sizes when detection risk is low.' I don't think the authors had any idea what they are spewing!! They also make up random terms that make no sense/have no real explanation... e.g. "An assertion level risk is one that influences only one or a few assertions." <-- WTH???????? WHO EDITED THIS CRAP?? (probably no one since the content is so boring whatever editors they bribed probably fell asleep and ran for the hills!!!!) Unfortunately, my professor is just as useless as this book, which is why I'm going to plow on... :-(. I could go on and on, but I'm only on chapter 5...
