AUDIT RISK ASSESSMENT

Colanta is a company positioned in the national market and recognized in Colombia for the
sale of dairy products and their derivatives with high quality standards, for many years
for years seeks to satisfy the nutritional needs of Colombian households, it is a company
which is in constant growth, which implies a greater challenge when it comes to doing
control and detect errors that may be harmful to the company.

The auditor must be aware of all aspects of the company and approach it from all angles.
the company not only the financial aspect but also to take into account its inventory aspects,
sales, staff, production processes and others that are involved in economic activities
of the company.

The auditor, upon gaining knowledge of the company and assessing the business risk, must evaluate the
probability of significant errors in the client's financial information through analysis
of the different cycles

Since the auditor's objective is to identify and assess the risks of material misstatement, due to
the fraud or error, both in the financial statements and in the assertions, through the
knowledge of the entity and its environment, including its internal control, with the purpose of
to provide a foundation for the design and implementation of responses to assessed risks of
material misstatement. This is why auditors use the AUDIT RISK model,
to identify the potential for errors and where there is a higher probability of occurrence.

In addition, the auditor will apply risk assessment procedures in order to have
a basis for identifying and valuing the risks of material misstatement in the financial statements and
in the statements.
