[Aus] Illustration 1A:

For purposes of this illustrative auditor's report, the following circumstances are assumed:

                     Audit of the financial report of a single listed company.  The audit is not a group audit (i.e. ASA 600 does not apply).

                     The financial report is prepared by the directors of the company in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards (a general purpose framework) and under the Corporations Act 2001.

                     The terms of the audit engagement reflect the description of the directors' responsibility for the financial report in ASA 210.

                     The auditor has concluded an unmodified (i.e. "clean") opinion is appropriate based on the audit evidence obtained.

                     The relevant ethical requirements that apply to the audit are the Accounting Professional & Ethical Standards Board's APES 110 Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (including Independence Standards).

                     Based on the audit evidence obtained, the auditor has concluded that a material uncertainty does not exist related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the company's ability to continue as a going concern in accordance with ASA 570.

                              Key audit matters have been communicated in accordance with ASA 701.

                     The auditor has obtained all of the other information prior to the date of the auditor's report and has not identified a material misstatement of the other information.

                     In addition to the audit of the financial report, the auditor has other reporting responsibilities required under section 308(3C) of the Corporations Act 2001.  (Ref: Para.
