Review accounting estimates for biases and evaluate whether the circumstances producing the bias, if any, represent a risk of material misstatement due to fraud.
In performing this review:
• Evaluate whether the judgments and decisions made by management in making the accounting estimates included in the financial statements, even if they are individually reasonable, indicate a possible bias on the part of the entity’s management that may represent a risk of material misstatement due to fraud. If so, look at the accounting estimates made within the financial statements as a whole to consider the risk of material misstatement.
• Perform a retrospective review of management judgments and assumptions related to significant accounting estimates reflected in the financial statements of the prior year
