 Responsibilities as Directors / Management
Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining internal controls and for compliance with laws, regulations, contracts and agreements.
In fulfilling this responsibility estimates and judgments by management are required to assess the expected benefits and related costs of the controls. The objectives of the internal controls are to provide management with reasonable, but not absolute, assurance that assets are safeguarded against loss from unauthorized use or disposition, that transactions are executed in accordance with management's authorizations and recorded properly to permit the preparation of financial statements in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS).
Clients are also responsible for making available to us, as and when required, all accounting records and all other relevant records and related information, including minutes of all management and shareholders' meetings.
Our Responsibilities as Auditors
We have a statutory responsibility to report to the Board of Directors whether in our opinion the financial statements give a true and fair view and whether they have been properly prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards. In arriving at our opinion, we must be satisfied:
- Whether proper accounting records have been kept.
- Whether balance sheets and the related statements of earnings, change in shareholders' equity and cash flows for the year then ended are in agreement with the accounting records;
- Whether we have obtained all information and explanations which we consider necessary for the purposes of our audit.
We have a professional responsibility to report if the financial statements do not comply in any material respect with applicable accounting standards, unless in our opinion the non-compliance is justified in the circumstances. In determining whether or not the departure is justified we consider:
- Whether the departure is required in order for the financial statements to give a true and fair view; and
- Whether adequate disclosure has been made concerning the departure.
