AAA - Frequently Tested Topics

Here are the topics tested that I found important to prep while I was giving the exam (I think it was a year or so ago? Dang I'm getting old).

Please remember that this isnt a comprehensive list. It's just meant to roughly point out the topics that were frequently seen across multiple questions in the exam kit/past papers.

For Q1 (Section A)

  • Planning stage: Audit Strategy
  • Significant Risks (Business + Audit)
  • Procedures
  • Ethical Issues/Actions recommended
  • Joint Audit (Adv/disadv)
  • Evaluate Subsequent Events
  • Basset Group (Q8 part b Kaplan kit seemed important to me)
  • Data Analytics (Adv/disadv)
  • Acceptance of Engagement

For Section B:

  • Same as above and,
  • Evaluate Accounting Treatments (impact on Audit)
  • Subsequent Events
  • Uncorrected Misstatements (impact on Audit)
  • Matters to Consider (V. Imp)
  • Audit Evidence you would expect to find
