The International Auditing and Assurance Standards Board (IAASB) has issued a non-authoritative publication to address some of the common questions related to reporting going concern matters in the auditor’s report. Specifically, the publication focuses on the use of and interrelationship of the Material Uncertainty Related to Going Concern and Key Audit Matters sections, and the Emphasis of Matter paragraphs, in an auditor’s report prepared in accordance with the International Standards on Auditing (ISAs).
This publication does not amend or override the International Standards on Auditing, the texts of which alone are authoritative. Reading the publication is not a substitute for reading the ISAs.
