CORAA मटीरियलिटी memo locked under SA 320

SA 320 mandates that मटीरियलिटी be set before fieldwork begins, documented with rationale, and locked. CORAA's three-चरण wizard गाइड the benchmark choice, PBT, Turnover, or Equity, applies the percentage, derives Performance मटीरियलिटी and Clearly Trivial Threshold, and locks the memo. Out-of-band percentages require written rationale captured in the ऑडिट ट्रेल per SA 230.

  • चरण 1: pick benchmark, PBT (3-10% typical), Turnover (0.5%), Equity (1-2%)
  • चरण 2: pick percentage with the ICAI 3-10% band shaded on the slider
  • चरण 3: derive PM (50-75% of OM per SA 320 A12) and CTT (typically 5% of OM)
  • Out-of-band selections require written rationale logged to the ऑडिट ट्रेल
  • Memo locked before fieldwork, consumed by सैम्पलिंग, निष्कर्ष, Opinion
  • संशोधन SA 230 के अनुसार एक दस्तावेज़ीकृत पुनः-मूल्यांकन नोट को ट्रिगर करता है
Two paths, one ledger

The old way, and ours.

Two paths to the same audit conclusion. One leaves traces; the other doesn't.

Traditional

The old way

  • -मटीरियलिटी calculated on a sheet of paper, often without written rationale
  • -बेंचमार्क चुनाव (PBT बनाम टर्नओवर बनाम इक्विटी) अंतर्ज्ञान पर, दस्तावेज़ीकृत नहीं
  • -बिना स्पष्टीकरण के बैंड-बाहर प्रतिशत उपयोग
  • -PM and CTT rarely separated; सैम्पलिंग done at OM level
  • -मटीरियलिटी 'adjusted' mid-एंगेजमेंट without trail
Falls apart under NFRA inspection. Peer reviewers cannot retrace the ऑडिटर's logic.

On the Ledger

  • Benchmark selection captured with the basis (profit-making, loss-making, सूचीबद्ध)
  • ICAI 3-10% बैंड छायांकित स्लाइडर पर प्रतिशत, दृश्य मार्गदर्शन
  • PM और CTT स्पष्ट अनुपात के साथ स्वचालित रूप से निर्धारित
  • बैंड-बाहर चयन लॉक करने से पहले लिखित तर्क अनिवार्य
  • Locked memo is पढ़ें-only, revision requires a documented note
  • Every change captured in the ऑडिट ट्रेल per SA 230
Defensible under NFRA inspection and peer समीक्षा. Every judgment retraceable.
How it works

Three steps. Every trace logged.

Step 01

बेंचमार्क चुनें

Three choices: प्रोfit Before Tax (typical 3-10% for profit-making entities), Turnover (0.5% for loss-making, SME, or volatile-PBT entities), or Equity (1-2% for investor-led entities). CORAA renders सभी three benchmark values from the financials and recommends the lowest for सूचीबद्ध entities.

Step 02

प्रतिशत चुनें

A slider with the ICAI 3-10% band shaded. Selections inside the band require no rationale. Selections outside the band require a written justification before the wizard advances. Resulting Overall मटीरियलिटी renders immediately.

Step 03

PM और CTT निर्धारित करें

Performance मटीरियलिटी at 50-75% of OM (SA 320 A12), 75% default for low-जोखिम एंगेजमेंट, 50% for higher-जोखिम. Clearly Trivial Threshold at typically 5% of OM. Both rendered on sliders. Lock the memo when satisfied.

Inside the module

What you actually get.

स्लाइडर पर ICAI बैंड छायांकित

SA 320 PBT के 3-10% को सामान्य बैंड के रूप में सुझाता है। CORAA का स्लाइडर बैंड को दृश्य रूप से प्रस्तुत करता है, बैंड के अंदर चयन तर्क आवश्यकता को ट्रिगर नहीं करते; बैंड के बाहर चयन लिखित औचित्य अनिवार्य करते हैं।

  • PBT, टर्नओवर और इक्विटी स्लाइडर पर बैंड प्रस्तुत
  • बैंड-बाहर एक तर्क मॉडल ट्रिगर करता है
  • Rationale stored in the ऑडिट ट्रेल per SA 230

Locked memo, ऑडिट-trailed

Once locked, the मटीरियलिटी memo is पढ़ें-only. सैम्पलिंग, निष्कर्ष वर्गीकरण, and Opinion sign-off सभी consume the locked numbers. Revision requires a documented re-evaluation note explaining what changed and why.

  • लॉक के बाद मेमो अपरिवर्तनीय
  • संशोधन कारण सहित ट्रैक किया गया
  • मूल और संशोधित दोनों संस्करण सुरक्षित
  • एंगेजमेंट Log captures every इवेंट

PM और CTT, OM से निर्धारित

Performance मटीरियलिटी (PM) is the buffer used for individual प्रक्रियाएँ, 50-75% of Overall मटीरियलिटी per SA 320 A12. Clearly Trivial Threshold (CTT) is the de minimis floor, typically 5% of OM. CORAA derives both with explicit ratios and lets the ऑडिटर adjust within the band.

  • PM: 50-75% of OM, default 75% for low-जोखिम
  • CTT: सामान्यतः OM का 5%, सीमा 3-10%
  • Both feed निष्कर्ष वर्गीकरण: Above PM, Above CTT, Below CTT
  • सैम्पलिंग consumes PM as its denominator

NFRA निरीक्षण में बचाव-योग्य

The memo and ऑडिट ट्रेल satisfy NFRA inspection and peer समीक्षा requirements, benchmark choice documented, percentage band-justified, PM/CTT rationale captured, every revision समय-stamped per SA 230.

  • प्रत्येक चयन के लिए SA 320 पैराग्राफ आधार
  • SA 230 दस्तावेज़ीकरण आवश्यकताएँ पूरी
  • Peer समीक्षा ready, full retrace possible
  • NFRA निरीक्षण के लिए तैयार
Frequently asked

Answers, up front.

SA 320 explicitly requires मटीरियलिटी to be set before fieldwork begins. Once सैम्पलिंग, निष्कर्ष वर्गीकरण, and Opinion sign-off rely on the number, it cannot quietly change. CORAA enforces the lock; revision requires a documented re-evaluation note per SA 230. The locked memo is what makes the वर्किंग पेपर defensible under NFRA inspection or peer समीक्षा.
PBT-based मटीरियलिटी on a loss-making entity is volatile and not typically appropriate. CORAA recommends Turnover (0.5% of revenue) for loss-making entities, SMEs, and businesses with cyclical PBT. The wizard surfaces this recommendation when PBT is negative or near zero. The benchmark choice is the ऑडिटर's, but CORAA documents the reasoning.
Default is 75% of OM for low-जोखिम एंगेजमेंट (no prior-वर्ष ऑडिट qualifications, documented आंतरिक नियंत्रण, limited estimates). 50% for higher-जोखिम एंगेजमेंट (prior-वर्ष निष्कर्ष, weak controls, significant estimates). The slider lets the ऑडिटर pick within the SA 320 A12 band of 50-75% with the rationale captured.
हाँ, but only with a documented re-evaluation. CORAA prompts a re-evaluation note when actual PBT (पोस्ट-ऑडिट) deviates from planning PBT by अधिक than 10%, typically when significant misstatements are found that shift the benchmark. The original memo and the revised memo are both preserved; the ऑडिट ट्रेल shows what changed and why.
