Test2...test2...test2 ("Wiley, August 18, 2003)

From the Inside Flap

n 2002 and 2003, high-profile accounting scandals shook up Wall Street and new regulations aimed at tightening up corporate accountability sent shock waves throughout corporate America. The responsibilities of internal audit departments, already growing with value-added services, increased as they worked to ensure these new requirements were being fulfilled. Now, here is a blueprint for new and experienced internal auditors on how to meet their job responsibilities in this ever-changing environment.

The Internal Auditor at Work: A Practical Guide to Everyday Challenges provides a far-reaching, accessible overview of the changes and challenges faced by today’s internal auditor. Written in partnership with the Institute of Internal Auditors, this information-rich guide details the current internal auditing environment as well as the various roles, responsibilities, and approaches that define the modern internal auditing profession. Additionally, the strategies and methods laid out here go beyond traditional practices to show new ways to add value to the auditing process.

Wide-ranging and clearly organized, The Internal Auditor at Work covers the latest developments in:

  • Audit planning
  • Quality control
  • Fraud detection and prevention
  • Corporate governance
  • Budgeting and reporting models
  • And more

Each chapter of this in-depth, functional analysis contains numerous resources to guide the reader toward greater understanding and performance. Discussion questions promote dialogue among auditing professionals on the various topics covered. Top ten considerations lists recap the important points of each chapter. And end-of-chapter exercises facilitate the reader’s self-development and application of principles covered.

At a time when management teams and boards of directors are seeking thorough reviews of risk and assurances of internal control systems, The Internal Auditor at Work represents an invaluable, user-friendly, and up-to-date guidebook for the internal auditing professional to refine and rethink both processes and the underlying significance of job responsibilities.
