Auditors Quotations

The movements which I make I cannot possibly repress because, at the time, I am actually the idea I am interpreting, and naturally I picture my players and auditors as in accord with me. I know, of course, that my mannerisms have been widely discussed.

Two-thirds of the Earth's surface is covered with water. The other third is covered with auditors from headquarters.

I was talking about no nukes, the farm crisis. People said that wasn't stuff that a state auditor was supposed to be talking about. Maybe they were right.

We've seen so many foolish happenings at companies where the auditors don't do their job.

Ongoing, day-to-day cash flow (to buy cocoa beans) will be structured in such a way that it is monitored by outside auditors twice a year.

I am very comfortable having the auditors coming in and looking at our big picture and knowing that the interests of Lauderdale County and our six other counties are at heart. And that the money and in-kind donations we spent very appropriately.

We look forward to working with our new independent auditors and we're eager to continue building our professional relationship.

Our auditors are looking into it. We're trying to wrap it up quickly.

Our outside auditors agree this change is preferable.

Our meetings probably last around 30 minutes. We introduce the current directors and any new nominees for their position, as well as address stockholder proposals. Proponents have the option of making a statement about their proposal, and our independent auditors are also in attendance. Then we have a 10-minute presentation on finances and a question-and-answer session.

We know that our change in auditors and the investigation by the SEC have raised concerns, ... We understand those concerns and we certainly know that this company not only has to substantially improve its performance but also needs to enhance its financial controls and discipline.

While I certainly don't have sympathy for the auditors and accountants who sold the shelters, I have perhaps even less sympathy for those who were rolling the dice just to see if they could avoid paying their share of taxes.

You have to wonder how the auditors and investment bankers could have missed so many 11th-hour deals involving hundreds of millions of dollars at a time.

We don't think the records are adequate or accurate. And the auditors agreed with us.

There was a close-out meeting, and I learned that the audit was more in-depth than I thought it would be. The auditors told me they would issue their findings in a written statement within 30 days.

Public companies are asking the same questions of suppliers that their auditors ask of them.

The Bush administration repeatedly gave Halliburton special treatment and allowed the company to gouge both U.S. taxpayers and the Iraqi people, ... The international auditors have every right to expect a full refund of Halliburton's egregious overcharges.

Auditors are in a grey area and they are more replaceable,

This case is an example of our continuing efforts to hold auditors and other gatekeepers responsible for failing to fulfill their professional obligations.

There were inconsistent and false explanations in some cases given to auditors examining a number of these charges.

They're like the internal police or support group. They're consultants before the external auditors check us out. They're on our side.

The auditors have refused to specify what steps must be taken if the EU accounts are to be given a clean bill of health. It's like telling an athlete to run a race without announcing the distance.

The auditors have raised questions about the support and the documentation rather than questioning the fact that we have incurred the costs, ... Therefore, it would be completely wrong to say or imply that any of these costs that were incurred at the client's direction for its benefit are 'overcharges.'

They'll be reviewing those 10 contracts. The auditors will obviously review those to make sure that they were awarded appropriately.

Implementation of the new standards may require auditors to change their approach and perhaps the nature of the audit procedures performed. We believe that these standards, with support from the AICPA, will allow our members to find ways to improve the effectiveness of their audit engagements.

In this regard, auditors will evaluate the consumption of resources and results of projects and put forward suggestions and proposals for the government to deal with problems found during the auditing.

In a large corporate environment, administrative passwords are cumbersome to manage. So the auditors like to see that the company has this under control.

According to government auditors, the stimulus money is being held up because there aren't enough government workers to oversee the spending. So follow me, in other words, government workers who aren't there are needed to spend money we don't have to create jobs that don't exist.

People attack Scientology, I never forget it, always even the score. People attack auditors, or staff, or organisations, or me. I never forget until the slate is clear.

You're here so you're a Scientologist. Now we're going to make you into an expert auditor no matter what happens. We'd rather have you dead than incapable.

The Auditors fluttered anxiously. And, as always happens in their species when something goes radically wrong and needs fixing instantly, they settled down to try to work how who was to blame.

You can get a much better fee - I tell you as auditors quite frankly - it's much easier to get a great deal of money out of somebody who's on a down spiral into becoming MEST than it is to get money out of somebody who is going on an up spiral toward becoming theta.

Men of great conversational powers almost universally practise a sort of lively sophistry and exaggeration which deceives for the moment both themselves and their auditors.

Mandatory auditor rotation is designed to address a potential conflict of interest between a public company and its auditor. Because an auditor is hired and paid by the public company it audits, the auditor's desire to maintain a good relationship with its client could conflict with its duty to rigorously question the client's financial statements.
