You have been assigned to document the understanding of the IT aspects of the critical path of a SCOT. Which of the following examples constitute appropriate documentation?
Controls not associated with the IT applications
The results of the testing performed on the IT applications and controls
Carryforward documentation when the IT application has changed in the current year
Significant processing procedures, including how IT applications support the processing
根据企业会计准则第30号——财务报表列报(2014)-第一章 总则-第三条,财务报表的列报应当包括资产负债表、利润表、现金流量表、所有者权益变动表以及附注,这些组成部分具有同等的重要程度。在理解关键交易类别(SCOT)的IT方面时,适当的文档应当包括:
- 重要处理程序,包括IT应用程序如何支持处理:这有助于理解IT系统如何影响交易的处理和财务报表的准确性。
- IT应用程序和控制的测试结果:这确保了IT系统的有效性和可靠性,以及它们如何支持关键交易类别的处理。
- 当IT应用程序在当前年度发生变化时的延续性文档:这有助于跟踪和理解IT系统的变化如何影响关键交易类别的处理和财务报表的列报。
因此,正确的答案是:“Significant processing procedures, including how IT applications support the processing”和“The results of the testing performed on the IT applications and controls”以及“Carryforward documentation when the IT application has changed in the current year”。这些选项都涉及到对IT系统如何支持关键交易类别处理的深入理解,这是确保财务报表准确性和可靠性的关键。
