concerns about the auditor’s roles and responsibilities at the time of the audit operations

(abc.net.au 2018). Mr. G. Medcraft is the former chainman of Australian Securities and
Exchange Commission (ASIC). The statement of G. Medcraft sounded like a warning
for the Australian accounting authorities related to the misconduct in the roles and
responsibilities of the auditors (abc.net.au 2018). According to him, the users of
financial information are facing difficulties in putting trust on the financial statements of
the business entities (abc.net.au 2018). In this context, it needs to be mentioned that
the auditors are needed to perform certain roles and responsibilities while conducting
the audit operations. The auditors are majorly responsible to plan and perform the audit
operations for the business entities so that they can obtain enough audit evidence in
order to make sure that there is not any material missstements in the financial
statements (Sanderson 2013). If the auditors encounter any material missstements,
then they are responsible for obtaining evidence to know whether fraud or error is
responsible for this or not (Knechel and Salterio 2016).
As a part of the responsibility, the auditors must follow the standards of
Accounting Professional & Ethical Standards Board, APES 110 as it provides all
the ethical standards and principles for the smooth conduct of the audit operations
(apesb.org.au 2018). According to G. Medcraft, the auditors are majorly lacking
professionalism and professional scepticism while performing the roles and
responsibilities. Moreover, G. Medcraft put emphasis on the fact that there is a need for
improving the auditing standards from the side of the big four audit companies in
Australia. He added that the present situation could lead to another Enron kind of
scandal in Australia (abc.net.au 2018). Thus, as per the above discussion, in order to

report, the auditors provide their written opinion about the financial situation of the
business entities and thus, it needs to be prepared as per the required format. The main
motive behind the issue of audit opinion for Satyam Computer was to inform the
auditors with the view about the financial position of the company (Christensen, Glover
and Wood 2013). The major users of the financial information of Satyam Computer
were creditors, lenders, banks, investors and others and the main reason for acquiring
financial information was to get assistance in the decision-making process. The issued
audit report of Satyam Computer by Price Waterhouse Cooper (PwC) has no mention
about any material misstatements in the financial statements. It was also mentioned that
there was not any fraud or error in the financial statements of Satyam Computer. As per
the audit report, all the required accounting standards and principles were followed
while developing the financial statements of the company (Chambers and Odar 2015).
Moreover, the auditors complied with the required auditing standards and principles for
the audit operations of Satyam Computer.

position of Satyam Computer. There was the involvement of the management of
Satyam Computer with the auditors in the process of manipulating the financial

accounts. After proving this fact, the audit firm, PwC, had to pay $6 million as fine due to
the verdict of United States Securities and Exchange Commission. Moreover, the
auditors of PwC did not comply with the required auditing standards and principles and
thus, PwC received a ban on their audit operations from Securities and Exchange Board
of India (SEBI). In the presence of the non-compliance with the auditing standards and
principles, the auditors overlooked the presence of fraud and errors in the accounting
operations of Satyam Computer that contributed to the development of major material
missstements (Griffiths 2016). Due to this, the provided audit report of PwC on Satyam
Computer majorly failed in conveying true financial health or the correct financial
position. This particular aspect had major negative effects on the decision-making
process of the users of financial information. In this process, the involvement of the
management of Satyam Computer can be seen as they directed the auditor to make
manipulation in their financial statements. Hence, from the above discussion, one fact is
clear that the audit report of Satyam Computer provided by PwC failed in satisfying the
desired purpose (Shah and Nair 2013).

Management’s Role
The managements of the business entities have to perform certain roles and
responsibility in order to assist the auditors and in other business operations. The
management of Satyam Computer was required to prepare and present financial
statements by complying with the required standards and principles (Reding et al.

from these, it was also required from the management of Satyam Computer to establish
effective internal control for the reduction in the possibility of occurring fraud and errors
in the accounting process. However, in most of the areas, the management of Satyam
Computer failed to fulfil their roles and responsibilities for achieving their personal
agenda as their involvement was there with different kinds of illegal activities. They are
as follows:
The motto of the founder of Satyam Computer, B. Ramalinga Raju, lied in
earning huge amount of money with the help of different illegal activities. Some of these
activities are tax fraud, preparation of false accounting books and many others. Thus, it
is clear that there was lack of ethical corporate culture within the organization. There
were many instances where the company was found involved in different unethical
activities like corruption, bribery and others.
The Crime Investigation Department (CID) of the State Police and Central
agencies found the evidence about the involvement of the management of Satyam
Computer in the process of insider trading of their company shares so that they can
purchase more lands. The company did insider trading with the fake name of 330
companies and 30 individuals.
There were many non-existed financial items in the financial statements of
Satyam Computer. For example, as on 7 September 2007, the balance sheet of the
company showed Rs. 376 crores of accrues interest that did not have an existence.
Moreover, there were other instances of accounts falsification like the manipulation in
current accounts (Pitt 2014).

The owner of Satyam Computer selected their known person as the chairman of
the company for the accomplishment of their personal interest. Due to this fact, the
chairman of Satyam Computer overlooked the strategic misconduct due to the presence
of personal relationship with the owner (Lad and Dahl 2014).
The board of directors of Satyam Computer largely lacked professionalism and
objectivity. For this reason, they failed in leading Satyam Computer to success by
solving the major issues in the company. Thus, on the overall basis, it can be observed
that the management of Satyam Computer had major ethical issues.
Auditors’ Role
It needs to be mentioned that the auditors are majorly responsible for the
inspection of the financial accounts of the business entities in order to make sure that
they are free from material misstatements. For this purpose, the auditors must collect
enough audit evidences in order to make sure that there is not any fraud to error in the
financial statements. At the same time, the auditors must follow the standards and
principles of audit ethics (Kuenkaikaew and Vasarhelyi 2013).
However, it needs to be mentioned that the auditors of Satyam Computer were
illegally involved with the management of Satyam Computer in the manipulation of
financial information. It is the obligation on the auditors to provide the unbiased audit
report by stating the correct financial position of the business entities to the users.

auditors contributed towards the violation of the Objectivity principle as per APES 110,
Section 120 (apesb.org.au 2018). Many people all over the world consider the role of
PwC in the collapse of Satyam Computer same as the role of Arthur Anderson in the
collapse of Enron.
While conducting the audit operations, it is needed for the auditors to develop
their own internal control testing techniques based on the demand of the situations.
However, instead of developing own internal control testing mechanism, the auditors of
PwC decided to adopt the recommended mechanism of the management of Satyam
Computer (Ojala et al. 2014). This aspect majorly compromised the professionalism of
audit. In spite of detecting major faults in the internal control of Satyam Computer, the
auditors of PwC remained silence for the fulfilment of their own interests. Thus, this
particular action of the auditors violated the principle of Professional Competence and
Due Care as per APES 110, Section 130 (apesb.org.au 2018).
Checking different financial accounts is another major role of the auditors.
However, the auditors of PwC did not take any single attempt to check the necessary
invoices of the business for their own benefits. The example of sundry debtors can be
presented as an example here as auditors did not recheck the balance of this account
(Lombardi, Bloch and Vasarhelyi 2014). Moreover, the implemented audit procedures of
PwC were ineffective as they majorly failed in checking the balance of crucial financial
items like cash book, value of fixed assets, value of liabilities and others. Instead of
doing the physical verification of inventories, the auditors relied on the provided
information of the management. With the help of this action, the auditors of PwC
