1. Course Details

Summary of Course

​This course examines the practice of auditing, the underlying concepts, auditors' responsibilities, and the audit environment. Although the focus of attention is on audits carried out under the provisions of the Corporations Law, reference is also made to other assurance and related non-assurance services. The course is intended to provide an overview of the audit process as it exists in Australia and internationally. The focus is on both the conduct of the audit (as an auditor) and interaction with the audit function (as a member of the business community). Topics include: the risk-based auditing approach; assessment of risk; development of audit strategy, internal control evaluation and controls testing; substantive testing; analytical review; auditing in an IT dominated and data rich environment; audit sampling; audit reporting; contractual and common law duties; the critical role of ethics; and an introduction to other assurance and related non-assurance services.

Teaching Times and Locations

3. Learning and Teaching Activities

Use of your Webcam and Digital Devices: If you enrol in an online class, or the online stream of a hybrid class, teaching and associated activities will be conducted using Teams, Zoom, or similar a technology. Using a webcam is optional, but highly encouraged, as this will facilitate interaction with your peers and instructors. If you are worried about your personal space being observed during a class, we encourage you to blur your background or make use of a virtual background. Please contact the Lecturer-in-Charge if you have any questions or concerns.

Some courses may involve undertaking online exams for which your own computer or digital devices will be required. Monitoring of online examinations will be conducted directly by University staff and is bound by the University's privacy and security requirements. Any data collected will be handled accordance with UNSW policies and standards for data governance. For more information on how the University manages personal information please refer to the UNSW Student Privacy Statement and the UNSW Privacy Policy.

Approach to Learning and Teaching in the Course

​At University, the focus is on your self-directed search for knowledge. Topic presentations, seminars, textbook material, topic exercises, quizzes, exams and other resources are all provided to help you learn. You need to do all the readings, complete all exercises and quizzes, and attend and participate in seminars in order to fully grasp and appreciate the concepts of Auditing and Assurance Services.

It is up to you to choose how much work you do in each part of the course: covering the course material; preparing for seminars; studying for and completing quizzes and exams; and seeking assistance to clarify and extend understanding of course material. You must choose an approach that best suits your learning style and goals in this course.

You are reminded that this is a challenging course. Not keeping up to date with the material in the course has, in the past, been identified as a common reason for not achieving a passing grade in the course. This course lends itself to a sustained effort throughout the entire term rather than an intense period of cramming prior to the final examination.

Learning Activities and Teaching Strategies

​This course, contingent on circumstances, is presented in both an on-line and face-to-face study mode. Subject to Government and University health regulations and policies (and capacity constraints), you may enrol in a face-to-face or on-line class. Enrolment in a face-to-face class indicates a commitment and capacity to attend the weekly seminar on the Kensington Campus. The on-line class can be attended remotely from anywhere in the world (subject to satisfactory internet connectivity - which is an essential requirement to enrol in the course). The on-line and face-to-face versions of the course are identical, except for the fact that in the face-to-face mode, the seminars are conducted in person on campus rather than via Zoom. Expectations of students are the same irrespective of the delivery mode.

All times noted in the course outline and other course documents are Sydney time.

Key concepts in each topic will be introduced and discussed in the seminar, but it will not be possible to cover all material in the seminar. Seminars are not lectures. It is important that students have adequately prepared for the seminar so that they can understand the application of the material for each topic, ask questions to clarify, reinforce and extent their understanding, as well as get the most benefit from case discussions.

Many years of experience, across all types of students, and across different institutions, highlights that the most effective way to become proficient in auditing is to learn by doing (i.e., experiential learning). The course has been designed with this in mind.

For each topic, prior to the seminar, you will be expected to have completed the pre-reading from the prescribed textbook, reviewed the topic slides, completed the topic exercises, and prepared for the case discussions, all prior to each week's seminar. The seminars provide an opportunity to strengthen your understanding of auditing by applying the pre-seminar materials in simulated audit settings. It is likely that you will also need to meet with your fellow team members. The Foundation Knowledge Quiz, Topic Quizzes, and Knowledge Application Quiz provide you with feedback on your progress toward achieving the learning objectives in this course.

Pre-Workshop Self Study Materials

Pre-seminar materials include powerpoint slide packages, pre-reading from the prescribed textbook, topic exercises, topic specific additional readings and videos. Pre-seminar self study materials will be available on the course Moodle website at least one week prior to the seminar. Seminars have been designed, and will be conducted, with the expectation that you have completed all pre-reading, viewed the topic slides, completed the topic exercises.

Teamwork

Audit and assurance work, like a lot of business and broader societal and personal activities, is undertaken as a team. Even where audit and assurance work is completed individually by a sole practitioner without any assistance, it is still necessary for the practitioner and the preparer of the subject matter being assured to work together. Working as a team allows you to benefit from the synergies of different perspectives. Effective teams produce outputs that are superior to what would have been achieved by the team members working individually. Ensuring that teams work effectively, however, is the responsibility of all individual team members and requires the commitment to facilitating appropriate interactions as well as motivating, encouraging and supporting all team members. In Auditing and Assurance Services, teamwork is emphasised as a key learning and teaching activity to help you achieve the course and program learning outcomes.

In Auditing and Assurance Services, teams of five will work together throughout the term to complete the Topic Quizzes. You may also want to leverage off being part of an effective team to form a study group, and may find the relationships formed and networks developed to be useful in your future career.

You will be given the opportunity to form your own teams. Students who do not find themselves in a team will be randomly assigned to a team. Members in each team will discuss and commit to provisions contained in a group contract.

Seminars

Seminars are the key learning activity in this course. It is in the seminars that you will reinforce, clarify and learn to apply the knowledge that you have generated from pre-seminar activities. Seminars will allow you the opportunity to apply topic material in simulated audit and business settings. Each seminar will be a combination of short lecture segments and interactive problem solving segments.

Except in pre-approved exceptional circumstances, you must attend the seminar in which you have formally enrolled. You should not enrol in the face-to-face seminar unless you are able to attend the seminar conducted at the Kensington Campus. If a student's circumstances or preferences change, there is no guarantee that they will be able to transfer to a different seminar delivery mode or different seminar time.

For students enrolled in on-line seminars, the link to the seminar each week will be available on the course Moodle website.

Consultation

Individual consultation is available should you encounter any difficulty with the course material. You are reminded, however, that consultation is a complement to, rather than a substitute for, engagement with the other learning and teaching activities.

Program Learning Outcomes

The Business School places knowledge and capabilities at the core of its curriculum via seven Program Learning Outcomes (PLOs). These PLOs are systematically embedded and developed across the duration of all coursework programs in the Business School.

PLOs embody the knowledge, skills and capabilities that are taught, practised and assessed within each Business School program. They articulate what you should know and be able to do upon successful completion of your degree.

Upon graduation, you should have a high level of specialised business knowledge and capacity for responsible business thinking, underpinned by ethical professional practice. You should be able to harness, manage and communicate business information effectively and work collaboratively with others. You should be an experienced problem-solver and critical thinker, with a global perspective, cultural competence and the potential for innovative leadership.

All UNSW programs and courses are designed to assess the attainment of program and/or course level learning outcomes, as required by the UNSW Assessment Design Procedure. It is important that you become familiar with the Business School PLOs, as they constitute the framework which informs and shapes the components and assessments of the courses within your program of study.

PLO 1: Business knowledge

Students will make informed and effective selection and application of knowledge in a discipline or profession, in the contexts of local and global business.

PLO 2: Problem solving

Students will define and address business problems, and propose effective evidence-based solutions, through the application of rigorous analysis and critical thinking.

PLO 3: Business communication

Students will harness, manage and communicate business information effectively using multiple forms of communication across different channels.

PLO 4: Teamwork

Students will interact and collaborate effectively with others to achieve a common business purpose or fulfil a common business project, and reflect critically on the process and the outcomes.

PLO 5: Responsible business practice

Students will develop and be committed to responsible business thinking and approaches, which are underpinned by ethical professional practice and sustainability considerations.

PLO 6: Global and cultural competence

Students will be aware of business systems in the wider world and actively committed to recognise and respect the cultural norms, beliefs and values of others, and will apply this knowledge to interact, communicate and work effectively in diverse environments.

PLO 7: Leadership development

Students will develop the capacity to take initiative, encourage forward thinking and bring about innovation, while effectively influencing others to achieve desired results.


These PLOs relate to undergraduate and postgraduate coursework programs.  For PG Research PLOs, including Master of Pre-Doctoral Business Studies, please refer to the UNSW HDR Learning Outcomes

Business School course outlines provide detailed information for students on how the course learning outcomes, learning activities, and assessment/s contribute to the development of Program Learning Outcomes.

UNSW Graduate Capabilities

The Business School PLOs also incorporate UNSW graduate capabilities, a set of generic abilities and skills that all students are expected to achieve by graduation. These capabilities articulate the University’s institutional values, as well as future employer expectations.

Academic Integrity and Plagiarism

Academic Integrity is honest and responsible scholarship. This form of ethical scholarship is highly valued at UNSW. Terms like Academic Integrity, misconduct, referencing, conventions, plagiarism, academic practices, citations and evidence based learning are all considered basic concepts that successful university students understand. Learning how to communicate original ideas, refer sources, work independently, and report results accurately and honestly are skills that you will be able to carry beyond your studies.

The definition of academic misconduct is broad. It covers practices such as cheating, copying and using another person’s work without appropriate acknowledgement. Incidents of academic misconduct may have serious consequences for students.

Plagiarism

UNSW regards plagiarism as a form of academic misconduct. UNSW has very strict rules regarding plagiarism. Plagiarism at UNSW is using the words or ideas of others and passing them off as your own. All Schools in the Business School have a Student Ethics Officer who will investigate incidents of plagiarism and may result in a student’s name being placed on the Plagiarism and Student Misconduct Registers.

Below are examples of plagiarism including self-plagiarism:

Copying: Using the same or very similar words to the original text or idea without acknowledging the source or using quotation marks. This includes copying materials, ideas or concepts from a book, article, report or other written document, presentation, composition, artwork, design, drawing, circuitry, computer program or software, website, internet, other electronic resource, or another person's assignment, without appropriate acknowledgement of authorship.

Inappropriate Paraphrasing: Changing a few words and phrases while mostly retaining the original structure and/or progression of ideas of the original, and information without acknowledgement. This also applies in presentations where someone paraphrases another’s ideas or words without credit and to piecing together quotes and paraphrases into a new whole, without appropriate referencing.

Collusion: Presenting work as independent work when it has been produced in whole or part in collusion with other people. Collusion includes:

  • Students providing their work to another student before the due date, or for the purpose of them plagiarising at any time
  • Paying another person to perform an academic task and passing it off as your own
  • Stealing or acquiring another person’s academic work and copying it
  • Offering to complete another person’s work or seeking payment for completing academic work

Collusion should not be confused with academic collaboration (i.e., shared contribution towards a group task).

Inappropriate Citation: Citing sources which have not been read, without acknowledging the 'secondary' source from which knowledge of them has been obtained.

Self-Plagiarism: ‘Self-plagiarism’ occurs where an author republishes their own previously written work and presents it as new findings without referencing the earlier work, either in its entirety or partially. Self-plagiarism is also referred to as 'recycling', 'duplication', or 'multiple submissions of research findings' without disclosure. In the student context, self-plagiarism includes re-using parts of, or all of, a body of work that has already been submitted for assessment without proper citation.

To see if you understand plagiarism, do this short quiz: https://student.unsw.edu.au/plagiarism-quiz

Cheating

The University also regards cheating as a form of academic misconduct. Cheating is knowingly submitting the work of others as their own and includes contract cheating (work produced by an external agent or third party that is submitted under the pretences of being a student’s original piece of work). Cheating is not acceptable at UNSW.

If you need to revise or clarify any terms associated with academic integrity you should explore the 'Working with Academic Integrity' self-paced lessons available at: https://student.unsw.edu.au/aim.

For UNSW policies, penalties, and information to help you avoid plagiarism see: https://student.unsw.edu.au/plagiarism as well as the guidelines in the online ELISE tutorials for all new UNSW students: http://subjectguides.library.unsw.edu.au/elise. For information on student conduct see: https://student.unsw.edu.au/conduct.

For information on how to acknowledge your sources and reference correctly, see: https://student.unsw.edu.au/referencing. If you are unsure what referencing style to use in this course, you should ask the lecturer in charge.



Student Responsibilities and Conduct

​Students are expected to be familiar with and adhere to university policies in relation to class attendance and general conduct and behaviour, including maintaining a safe, respectful environment; and to understand their obligations in relation to workload, assessment and keeping informed.

Information and policies on these topics can be found on the 'Managing your Program' website.

Workload

It is expected that you will spend at least ten to twelve hours per week studying for a course except for Summer Term courses which have a minimum weekly workload of twenty to twenty four hours. This time should be made up of reading, research, working on exercises and problems, online activities and attending classes. In periods where you need to complete assignments or prepare for examinations, the workload may be greater. Over-commitment has been a cause of failure for many students. You should take the required workload into account when planning how to balance study with employment and other activities.

We strongly encourage you to connect with your Moodle course websites in the first week of semester. Local and international research indicates that students who engage early and often with their course website are more likely to pass their course.

View more information on expected workload

Attendance and Engagement

Your regular attendance and active engagement in all scheduled classes and online learning activities is expected in this course. Failure to attend / engage in assessment tasks that are integrated into learning activities (e.g. class discussion, presentations) will be reflected in the marks for these assessable activities. The Business School may refuse final assessment to those students who attend less than 80% of scheduled classes where attendance and participation is required as part of the learning process (e.g. tutorials, flipped classroom sessions, seminars, labs, etc.). If you are not able to regularly attend classes, you should consult the relevant Course Authority.

View more information on attendance

General Conduct and Behaviour

You are expected to conduct yourself with consideration and respect for the needs of your fellow students and teaching staff. Conduct which unduly disrupts or interferes with a class, such as ringing or talking on mobile phones, is not acceptable and students may be asked to leave the class.

View more information on student conduct

Health and Safety

UNSW Policy requires each person to work safely and responsibly, in order to avoid personal injury and to protect the safety of others.

View more information on Health and Safety

Keeping Informed

You should take note of all announcements made in lectures, tutorials or on the course web site. From time to time, the University will send important announcements to your university e-mail address without providing you with a paper copy. You will be deemed to have received this information. It is also your responsibility to keep the University informed of all changes to your contact details.
