the information in all listing and schedules provided by
management for audit purpose.

Perform analytical procedures

Establish that defined benefit assets and liabilities are not


materially misstated.

4 Carry out analytical procedures such as:


(a) comparison of the current figures with those of prior periods;
and
(b) review of key ratios or other performance indicators.

5 Review for items above performance materiality or that are


otherwise unusual and verify.

B. Share-based payment

Establish that the share-based payments expenses are correctly


determined and accounted for. Consider the perform the following
procedures:

1 In respect of the share-based payments arrangement entered into


the period, obtain the details of the arrangements including but

(or suppliers), board of directors’ or shareholders’ minutes of
meeting, share-based payment scheme detail plan, etc.

2 Check and document that the accounting treatment of any share-


based payment transactions is in accordance with applicable
accounting standards. In particular for equity-settled share-based
payment transactions, has the entity measured the goods or
services received, and the corresponding increase in equity at:

3 Inquiry on management’s method of determining the fair value of


the share-based payments. Critically evaluate the reasonableness
of the assumptions used by the management and obtain relevant
supporting documents to support the valuation of equity settled
financial instruments.

4 When the valuation is performed by a valuation expert, complete


the supplementary audit programme “Using the Work of
Management’s Expert” (App8) in respect of the valuation.

5 For cash-settled share-based payment transactions, has the entity


measured the goods or services acquired and the liability incurred
at the fair value of the liability?

6 For share-based payment transactions in which the terms of the


arrangement provide either the entity or the counterparty with the
choice of whether the entity settles the transaction in cash (or
other assets) or by issuing equity instruments: has the entity
accounted for that transaction, or the components of that
transaction, as either:
(a) a cash-settled share-based payment transaction if, and to
the extent that, the entity has incurred a liability to settle in
cash or other assets; or
(b) as an equity-settled share-based payment transaction if, and
to the extent that, no such liability has been incurred?

this area remains appropriate.
