The Definition of an Asset Case 1.11 WorldCom: The Definition of an Asset

WorldCom Case Relevant Technical Knowledge Definition of an Asset According to GAAP, an asset must provide an organization with a right to enjoy future benefits (e.g., by providing future cash flows for the organization). The organization must have control of this future benefit and the transaction that allowed this future benefit to exist for the organization must have occurred for an asset to exist.

WorldCom Case Relevant Technical Knowledge PCAOB AS No. 5 – Paragraph A5 “Internal controls provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with GAAP.”

WorldCom Case Relevant Technical Knowledge PCAOB AS No. 15 - Paragraphs 5 & 6 Sufficiency “is the measure of the quantity of evidence” needed. The quantity of evidence needed will depend upon the risk of material misstatement and the quality of evidence obtained. Indeed, the appropriateness of the evidence obtained relates to its appropriateness. Specifically, is the evidence that has been obtained both relevant and reliable “in providing support for the conclusions on which the auditor's opinion is based.”

WorldCom Case Relevant Technical Knowledge PCAOB ET #102 - Paragraph #1 “in the performance of any professional service, a member shall maintain objectivity and integrity, shall be free of conflicts of interest, and shall not knowingly misrepresent facts or subordinate his or her judgment to others.”
