Describe an objective—a goal to reach in this race of life, one that you think will actually produce happiness that can be achieved rather than just chased; that is, a goal that does not consist in making or having as much money as possible, or accumulating things that you can buy with money.

Question #1: Near the end of chapter 11 (Smith book—Tocqueville), Tocqueville points out (according to Smith) that happiness in democracies like that in the United States is measured in material terms such as how much money one makes or has, how many things you can buy with this money, how many things one owns, etc. This idea of happiness, according to Tocqueville, will always be disappointing, one can never actually achieve happiness in this way, one can merely endlessly chase after it (until one dies).
Now let us think about Tocqueville’s observation about happiness in terms of what we learned about John Rawls. Rawls treats life like a race, and Rawls’ theory of justice simply wants to make this race as fair as possible for everyone.
Describe an objective—a goal to reach in this race of life, one that you think will actually produce happiness that can be achieved rather than just chased; that is, a goal that does not consist in making or having as much money as possible, or accumulating things that you can buy with money. This will require you to do some deep thinking, but by now you should have some ideas about this based on our readings and my lectures! If “justice” currently involves protecting people’s right to make as much money as possible, and protecting people’s possession of the things they buy with that money, how would the idea of justice need to change to be relevant for the new objective/goal you are proposing (what would justice need to do, to accomplish, to help people actually possess happiness)? Be sure to argue for/defend your solution.

Question #2: ( 6-8 sentences): Discuss something
that has sparked your interest in the readings.

Audit project

Your firm, ACTG 307 & Associates, is engaged to audit the financial statements of XYZ Corporation. It is a private manufacturing company that is considering going public in three to four years. Your firm has been preforming audit services to this client for the past five years. The client requires financial statements audits for monitoring purposes, but mainly to receive finance and loans from banks. The management team has high level of competence and integrity, and based on the other team’s assessment of internal control, the control risk is low.
Another team did most of the audit tests and completed most of the audit work papers (WP). Your team is assigned to complete the work papers and audit tests of the engagement. Specifically, your team is required to do the following:
1. Write an engagement letter, dated 11/6/2020, by completing WP 2-1.
2. Perform the preliminary analytical procedure WP 3-1 and 3-2 and comment on:
a. The client liquidity, profitability and solvency.
b. The client ability to continue as a going concern.
3. Assess the preliminary materiality based on the policy provided (WP 1-13), and complete WP 3-5, assuming moderate risk and satisfactory results of the analytical procedures.
4. Complete the audit of the accounts receivables:
a. Calculate the sample size for A/R confirmation by following steps in WP 25-2.
b. Assume that you received answers for all of the confirmations and only one of them indicated that the balance is wrong. The balance recorded is $598,000, but the correct amount is $589,000. Prepare an adjusting entry on WP 25-5.
c. Complete the A/R lead sheet WP 25-1, and complete the conclusions box by stating whether this account is fairly stated or not. (Ignore the allowance for doubtful accounts).
5. Complete the audit of inventory:
a. Assume that all the steps of the inventory audit program were done and the misstatements were only found in the machinery account, AC# 200-101.
b. You need to complete WP 30-1, 30-5 and 30-15.
6. Assuming that all other tests came to be satisfactory, prepare an audit report, with the appropriate opinion (dated 2/21/2021).
7. Complete the project by having all of the required work papers with a cover page that has your group number and names of the group members, in one word document, and drop it in the drop box on D2L by the midnight of Friday 4/15/2022. No late assignment will be accepted.
Notes:
1. Comparative income statements and balance sheets are provided.
2. Make sure to initial every document. [If you are from group # 1, your initial will be G1].
3. Five points will be deducted for each error or omission, including, but not limited to, missing initials, missing a date, wrong calculations, wrong conclusions, etc.
4. Submitting the wrong audit report or submitting two different audit reports will lead a loss of 20 points.
5. Watching the lecture videos for the related chapters will be very helpful.
