Analytical Procedure

Analytical Procedure

Introduction

The Analytical Procedure is primarily used for Materiality purposes and for comparing data between the current year and the previous year. It generates a file when the client is imported from any accounting software, and the file is saved as Version 1. Subsequent re-imports of the fund result in new file versions, such as Version 2, Version 3, and so on, with Version 4 being the latest. 


Contents of the Generated File: 

  1. The file displays the Procedure, Current Year, and Previous Year data columns. 
  2. Variance in percentage and amount between the Current Year and Previous Year is also displayed, indicating if there is a rise or fall. 
  3. Text boxes are available to add Materiality details and Comments for each item. 
  4. The total amount of the Current Year and Previous Year for each bucket is displayed in the top right corner. 



  1. You can also change the Analytical Procedure Version by clicking on the dropdown next to Version.



Conclusion and Saving: 

  1. After completing the checklist and the entire process, you can add a Summary and Conclusion to summarize the analysis.



  1. Click on the Save button located at the bottom left corner to save the completed Analytical Procedure. 



The Analytical Procedure streamlines data comparison and helps in Materiality Assessment, providing valuable insights for decision-making and auditing purposes. It allows for comprehensive analysis and documentation of data changes between the current and previous years to ensure accurate financial assessment and reporting.
