This provides an opportunity to highlight the subjective nature of some of these judgments as well as to point out that many audit approaches would be considered reasonable. The suggested approach is amenable to using small cooperative learning groups. For example, students could be asked to individually identify a control activity related to the existence of sales transactions, share it with another student, and then share it with the whole class (called Think-PairShare). It is important that students be randomly selected by the instructor to share their answers with the class to maintain individual student accountability for the learning process. This basic process can continue for the remaining management assertions. A group activity for the “out-of-class” activity would be to have students compare their answers in small groups and then ask them to share their answers with the whole class (called Homework Review). Again, it is important that the instructor randomly select students to share their answers with the class to maintain student accountability. Students can also be asked to complete the “out-of-class” activities in pairs or small groups.
