Learning Objective

  • Discuss typical audit risks and special audit considerations for tangible long-lived assets.
  • Tailor a detailed audit plan to respond to the assessed risk of material misstatement related to fixed assets and leases.
  • Explain key controls related to property, plant, and equipment.

Course Overview

Property, plant, and equipment can range from a low-risk to a high-risk audit area, depending on the nature of the transaction and events engaged in by the reporting entity.

Participants will gain a deep understanding of lease classification, measurement, disclosure requirements, and the impact of recent accounting standards updates. Through a blend of theoretical concepts and practical examples, learners will develop the skills to navigate complex lease arrangements effectively.

By joining this CPE Course, participants will be equipped with the knowledge and skills to effectively apply lease accounting principles and ensure compliance with regulatory standards.
