Engagement
Audit Planning Engagement
A structured planning engagement that sets materiality, risk focus, and a fieldwork calendar before testing begins.
Who this is for
Finance directors, CFOs, and internal audit leads preparing interim or year-end statutory work in Taiwan — especially when the group has more than one site, related-party balances, or a first consolidation year.
Result you receive
A planning memorandum covering materiality, significant risks, and the order of site visits; a fieldwork calendar with named owners; and sample request lists written so process owners can gather documents before day one of testing.
What is included
- Scoping call and entity / component map
- Materiality discussion anchored to reporting patterns, not a single generic percentage
- Significant risk identification for revenue, inventory, estimates, and related parties as applicable
- Fieldwork calendar with travel and testing blocks
- Initial sample and walkthrough request lists
- Handover note for the team that will execute testing
What is not included
- Full substantive testing or opinion issuance
- Bookkeeping, closing entries, or preparation of financial statements
- Legal representation or regulatory filings
How we work
- Scoping call to confirm entities, periods, and known pressure points
- Document request for prior-year files, trial balances, and org charts
- Draft planning memo and calendar for your review
- Final planning pack and optional kickoff with process owners
Preparation on your side
Please share last year’s audit findings, current trial balances, a list of locations, and the names of process owners for revenue, purchases, payroll, and inventory. If group reporting is new, bring the related-party schedule early.
Location
Planning meetings can be held at our Taichung office (No.81,ChienHsingSt.E.Dist.Taichung) or at your premises. Remote sessions are available for multi-site groups.
