FIN 590 Week 1 Discussion

Post a total of 3 substantive responses over 2 separate days for full participation. This includes your initial post and 2 replies to other students. 

As a guideline, answers to questions should be a minimum of 175 words in length; posts in response to peers should be about 100-150 words in length. All posts should include value-added perspectives (personal and workplace examples are great!) and integrate concepts from course readings and additional research.

Please be reminded that your sources should be cited. This is good writing protocol, as well as helping us identify sources for our learning.

Due Thursday

Common questions often emerge about trying to understand what the words attestation, assurance and auditing means. There are several resemblances with the three terms; however, they each have a different meaning. Even though some similarities exist, one might make a business mistake by inadvertently contracting to have the wrong service performed at the wrong time.

• Explain what attestation means in business.
• Explain what assurance means in business.
• Explain what auditing means in business.

Due Monday

Reply to at least 2 of your classmates. Be constructive and professional in your responses.
