Quality Control Review of Coopers & Lybrand L.L.P Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute Fiscal Year Ended June 30,1996
Abstract
The objective of a quality control review is to assure that the audit was conducted in accordance with applicable standards and meets the auditing requirements of the 0MB Circular A-133. As a Federal funding agency for the Institute, we conducted a quality control review of the audit working papers. We focused our review on the following qualitative aspects of the audit: due professional care, planning, supervision, independence, quality control, internal controls, substantive testing, general and specific compliance testing, and the Schedule of Federal Awards. We reviewed the report on the most recent peer review dated September 23, 1994, performed by Ernst and Young LLP, which found that Coopers & Lybrand L.L.P. met the objectives of the quality control review standards established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants and that the standards were being complied with during the fiscal year ended March 31,1994.
