10-7. Your regular annual audit of North, Inc., included the confirmation of
accounts receivable. You decided to use the positive form of confirmation
request. Satisfactory replies were received from all but one of the large
accounts. You sent a second and third request to this customer, but received
no reply. At this point an employee of the client company informed you that a
check had been received for the full amount of the receivable. Would you
regard this as a satisfactory disposition of the matter? Explain.

ANSWER:
No, the matter remains unresolved. First, oral evidence from the client
is never in itself sufficient; the auditors must follow up to determine
the reliability of the oral evidence. Second, payment of an account
receivable is not confirmation; the account might be fictitious, and the
payment could have been made by a dishonest employee who had
created the fictitious account to conceal a cash shortage. The auditors
must examine the customer purchase order or contract, and copies of
the sales invoice and shipping document, in support of the
unconfirmed receivable. They should also determine the genuineness
of the customer by reference to the telephone directory or to credit
agency reports.
