3 (a) Discuss why the identification of related parties, and material related party transactions, can be difficult for

auditors. (5 marks)

正确答案：
3 Pulp Co
(a) Identification of related parties
Related parties and associated transactions are often difficult to identify, as it can be hard to establish exactly who, or what,
are the related parties of an entity. IAS 24 Related Party Disclosures contains definitions which in theory serve to provide a
framework for identifying related parties, but deciding whether a definition is met can be complex and subjective. For example,
related party status can be obtained via significant interest, but in reality it can be difficult to establish the extent of influence
that potential related parties can actually exert over a company.
The directors may be reluctant to disclose to the auditors the existence of related parties or transactions. This is an area of
the financial statements where knowledge is largely confined to management, and the auditors often have little choice but to
rely on full disclosure by management in order to identify related parties. This is especially the case for a close family member
of those in control or having influence over the entity, whose identity can only be revealed by management.
Identification of material related party transactions
Related party transactions may not be easy to identify from the accounting systems. Where accounting systems are not
capable of separately identifying related party transactions, management need to carry out additional analysis, which if not
done makes the transactions extremely difficult for auditors to find. For example sales made to a related party will not
necessarily be differentiated from ‘normal’ sales in the accounting systems.
Related party transactions may be concealed in whole, or in part, from auditors for fraudulent purposes. A transaction may
not be motivated by normal business considerations, for example, a transaction may be recognised in order to improve the
appearance of the financial statements by ‘window dressing’. Clearly if the management is deliberately concealing the true
nature of these items it will be extremely difficult for the auditor to discover the rationale behind the transaction and to consider
the impact on the financial statements.
Finally, materiality is a difficult concept to apply to related party transactions. Once a transaction has been identified, the
auditor must consider whether it is material. However, materiality has a particular application in this situation. ISA 550
Related Parties states that the auditor should consider the effect of a related party transaction on the financial statements.
The problem is that a transaction could occur at an abnormally small, even nil, value. Determining materiality based on
monetary value is therefore irrelevant, and the auditor should instead be alert to the unusual nature of the transaction making
it material.

_________(59)
A:for
B:to
C:of
D:if

答案：A

解析：

由于上文说到通货膨胀是一个“阶段”，因此这里需要填写一个表示时间的关联词。本句意思是“当你用同样的钱买到的东西比以前少的时候，通货膨胀就发生了。” 因此选D。
根据句子关系和词语提示，本句上半句中的fewer可作提示词，less是lit-tie的比较形式，与fewer相配。下句中的“your money buys less”是更直接的提示。因此选D。
根据词语搭配和上下文线索提示。介词in与相应的名词搭配使用表示 “在……方面增长或减少”。本段第二句有类似的表达that causes rapid rises in prices。
根据上下文意思和词语逻辑，这里需要一个表示“最大”含义的词。本句意思为“依赖固定收入的人受影响最大”。因此选C。
根据词语习惯搭配。meet one's needs满足需要。本句意思是“不再工作的老年人在通货膨胀时期要想靠工资满足需求”。因此选A。
根据句子的逻辑。retirement income属于fixed income, or连接两个前后表达属于同类范畴的词。本句意思是“退休金和其他固定的收入通常没有物价上涨得快”。因此选A。
根据上下文含义和句子逻辑，本句需要填一个表示“跟上”的词，因此要选keep up with。本句意思是“很多退休的人必须削减一些开支来跟上上涨的物价”。因此选D。
根据上下文意思和词语用法，stop后面接动名词表示“不再做某事”，这句话的意思是“很多情况下他们不再买一些生活必需品”。因此选B。
根据语法逻辑，本句是状语部分前置，正常语序是：Inflation can be a problem even for working people whose incomes are going up.for指“对于……来说”。本句意思是 “甚至对于那些有工作，工资在上涨的人来说，通货膨胀也是一个问题”。
根据词语搭配和上下文意思，选cost成本，本句意思是“生活成本上升了，工作的人们必须花更多的钱来保证自己的生活质量”。
keep pace with指“跟上”，与keep up with同义。本句意思是“当工资和物价上涨不同步时，生活质量就下降”。因此选B。
此空填的是由from加which引导的定语从句，本句意思是“政府机构收集经济生活中的价格信息，将它发布成为消费指数，通过这样，比率的变化就可以确定”。因此选B。
given在这里指“给定的、一定的”，符合题目要求。本句意思是“通过将特定的某一年的价格作为基数就可以衡量物价的变化”。
根据词语搭配和上下文线索选percentage百分比。本句意思是“其他物价按照这个基数变为一个百分比数字”。
根据语法原则选it。 it在这里是形式宾语，代替不定式to compare current prices of typical consumer goods with prices of the same goods in previous years。本句意思是“消费指数能够将某种商品的目前价格与往年的做比较”。
