In this simulation‚ our team did an audit process by selecting a base to calculate Planned Materiality. We allocated the Materiality to the relevant accounts and set a Tolerable Misstatement for each account. Then‚ we assessed Audit Risk‚ Inherent Risk‚ and Control risk to derive Detection Risk. As a result of these decisions‚ we derived Sample Size and Sampling Interval‚ and set an Expected Misstatement. We learned that certain accounts have to be audit 100 percent. Some of these accounts are

Calculation of Pi Using the Monte Carlo Method by Eve Andersson Home : Pi : One Calculation ________________________________________ The "Monte Carlo Method" is a method of solving problems using statistics. Given the probability‚ P‚ that an event will occur in certain conditions‚ a computer can be used to generate those conditions repeatedly. The number of times the event occurs divided by the number of times the conditions are generated should be approximately equal to P.
