Product Description

Knapp's CONTEMPORARY AUDITING: REAL ISSUES AND CASES, Eighth Edition, uses real-world cases to acquaint you with the work environment of auditors. It also helps you recognize the red flags that often accompany problem audits. This new edition offers exciting new cases that cover the massive economic crisis that the U.S. and global economies have recently faced. In addition, new cases have been added to the "International Cases" section, examining auditing challenges in Australia, China, India, Japan, Russia, South Africa, and several others. The eighth edition fully integrates risk assessment standards recently adopted by the auditing community. What better training for the real world of auditing than to learn by studying real companies and situations!

Editorial Reviews

Review
"Thank you for the great casebook. I have used this for over 10 years in my graduate cases with great success."

"Students' participation is noticeable when the case touches a conflict between personal and professional issue."

"My experience with the Knapp casebook has been incredibly positive. The cases are so well written that I have never had a complaint about the readability of the cases. I have often custom published a casebook with just the cases that I plan to use and that has always been a very easy process."

Good case book
By J. Omohundro
I'm using this book in my Audit II class. It's a supplement to our standard text for the course. It seems very easy to read, and the cases are much more interesting than your average accounting text--especially if you're into this sort of thing!! The questions at the end of each case sometimes go beyond what you might find in an auditing text, so they challenge the student to not just regurgitate what we have read in the other text last semester. Highly recommended.

Great tool for understanding the fundamentals and intricacies of auditing
By K. Ferrell
Great text, and very easy to read understand without giving up the technical prowess it has always related. Must have for any serious audit student or current professionals in the field.

Kindle Price review
By D. Titus
Why would anyone buy this book on Kindle when it's only 7 dollars cheaper? Yeah, I want to pay 69 bucks for a book I can only read digitally and can't re-sell. When, oh, when, are Academic publishers going to figure out how to work digital books? Just like the Academy to be up on the latest theoretical developments, but to be light years behind on technological implementation.
