  1. Confidentiality.
  2. Objectivity.
  3. Competency.

  1. The board is required to approve the salary package for all audit staff.
  2. The internal audit charter is approved by the CAE.
  3. The internal audit budget and resource plan are approved by the board.
  4. The decision regarding the appointment or termination of the CAE belongs to the CEO.

Answer(s): C

  1. Risk management is a function centralized at the top-level of management.
  2. Risk management centers on inventorying the applicable risks to the organization.
  3. Risk management is complementary to the system of internal controls.
  4. Risk management centers on governance and culture.

An organization uses hedging to address foreign currency risk.
Which of the following best describes this risk strategy?

  1. Avoidance.
  2. Acceptance.
  3. Reduction.
  4. Sharing.

A financial institution intends to contract a data center management service provider to host and manage the data in its custody as a response to data security and protection risks.
What technique is being adopted by this organization?

  1. Risk acceptance.
  2. Risk avoidance.
  3. Risk sharing.
  4. Risk reduction.

Contracting a data center management service provider transfers part of the responsibility and potential impact of data security risks to a third party. This represents risk sharing, as the organization allocates the risk to another entity through contractual arrangements rather than retaining it entirely.



During an internal audit of an organization’s fixed assets, an internal auditor finds that several assets are not recorded in the organization’s ledger but are physically present during the site review. The equipment is in poor condition, suggesting it has been used for a long time.
Which of the following actions should the auditor take?

  1. Inform management of potential theft and suggest performing a physical inventory.
  2. Perform additional tests to investigate possible overstating of fixed assets.
  3. Ask the asset manager about the unrecorded assets to clarify the issue.
  4. Suggest management write off the equipment as it is in poor condition.

Answer(s): C

Explanation:

When unrecorded assets are identified, the auditor should first seek clarification from the responsible asset manager to understand the reason for the discrepancy. Gathering additional information is necessary before drawing conclusions or recommending corrective actions.

  2. An operational audit engagement.
  3. A feasibility study engagement.
  4. A risk and control self-assessment engagement.

Answer(s): A
