The objective of this exercise is to introduce the understanding of the concept of internal controls, analysis of acquisitions and required reporting through real-life scenarios.

Internal controls are evaluated by both internal auditors, external auditors, as well as IT auditors.

Internal Auditors – Auditors who are employees of the organization, report to the audit committee and provide assurance to the audit committee that the company’s internal controls are in accordance with company policies and strategic objectives.

External Auditors – Auditors who are external to the organization and provide an opinion to shareholders and/or stakeholders on the accuracy of the company’s financial statements in accordance with applicable accounting guideline, typically GAAP.External auditors must also understand Internal Controls over Financial Reporting (i.e. ICFRs) as well as Information Technology General Controls (i.e. ITGCs) of an organization to appropriately perform an audit, and if the company is public, in order to validate assurance on compliance with SOX.

IT Auditors – Internal or external IT auditors can work independently or in conjunction with internal or external auditors on specific audit objectives.IT auditors provide insight regarding internal controls within the organization’s system and/or association with the organization’s governance controls over the IT environment.
