ASA 315/ISA 315 requires the auditor to identify and assess risk of material misstatement at both the financial report and assertion levels. Inherent risk is covered in chapter 7, control risk in chapter 8. 7- Copyright 2010 McGraw-Hill Australia Pty Ltd PPTs t/a Auditing and Assurance Services in Australia 4e by Grant Gay and Roger Simnett Slides prepared by Roger Simnett Learning objective 1: Inherent risk Inherent risk (IR): Susceptibility of account balance or class of transactions to material misstatement given inherent and environmental characteristics, but without regard to internal control.
