II. He will not at any time during the said term destroy, cancel, spoil, embezzle or take copies of books, papers, plans, documents, monies of his principal, partner or for his clients.

II. He will at the expiration of the said term use his best means and endeavors at the request, cost and charges of the trainee student to cause to be admitted on the register of members, pursuit to the chartered accountant ordinance 1961.HOW TO CONDUCT AUDIT
THE OPERATION OF AUDIT
The audit work is operated with the help of the following techniques:
.1)TICKING.
.2)CASTING.
.3) CALLING OVER
.4)VOUCHING.
.5)VERIFICATION.
.6)REPORTING.
1. TICKINGTicking indicates the placing of a mark against an entry in the book to denote that the auditor has examined it for a certain purpose. Variously shaped marks are used to denote checking of additions, posting, carry-forward, tracing, extraction of balances etc. Ticks are generally put in indelible pencil, although some auditors also use pen and ink for this purpose.
2. CASTINGCasting refers to the checking of additions of books of accounts and financial statements. It is essential that arithmetical accuracy be checked so that frauds or errors (if any) may be detected. A junior member of audit staff normally does this job. Most of the auditors use mechanical appliances or adding machines to check the casting of the books of accounts.
3. CALLING OVERSome part of audit work consists of comparison of two or more books of accounts with supporting documents; this is usually performed by two members of staff. One Member is reading the item and the other is reconciled. Here the precaution is that check complete evidence/supports not only the amounts the books, checking and posting of the personal ledger, names and title of accounts, otherwise the error may not be detected clarity of voice is essential.
4. VOUCHINGA voucher is a documentary evidence which proves the accuracy or otherwise of transaction appearing in the books of accounts.
The different types of voucher are follows
Cash receipt
Cash payment
Purchases
Sales
Purchase return
Sales return
Journal entries
Vouching means and includes the examination of every business transaction wit its supporting documentary evidence, the checking of which satisfy the auditor that transaction is in order. If the auditor failed to vouch the item correctly he must be held negligent in the performance of his duties.
5. VERIFICATIONThe process of vouching enables an auditor to confirm the acquisition of an asset or the assumption of a liability on a stated date.
Sub section 3 of section 255 of the require and auditor to submit his report to shareholder specifically mentioning whether or not the balance sheet exhibits a true and fair view of the state of company affairs according to the best of his information and the explanation given to him true as shown in the books of the companyThe auditor discharge his duty after due verification. The techniques of verification are followings.
He satisfies himself of the existence of and asset or liability.
Correct valuation of the assets and liability.
Question of ownership is valid and true in respect of and asset and liability.
Each time of asset and liability disclosed as legally required under the law.
6. REPORTINGPerforming the above duties the auditor has to submit a report. The report of the content depends upon several factors.
E.g. the legal status of the appointing authority
The audit is performed under the companys ordinance 1984. Banking ordinance 1962, insurance act 1938.The audit report to be submitted after the annual audit of account of company in prescribed form 35-A annexed to the companies rules 1985Modern trends follow the under noted sequence: Examination of the accounting system.
Evaluation of internal controls.
Sample checking of vouchers.
Verification of assets and liabilities.
Submission of auditors report.AUDIT PROCESS
Every successful audit is based on sound planning and an atmosphere of constructive involvement and communication between the client and the auditor. I see quite a few organizations that include a web based explanation to their clients how the audit process work. The purpose of providing this page is for those audit organizations that have not explained to their clients how, in general, the audit process works. It is also design to provide a resource of for sharing tools and techniques for each of the distinct phases of the audit process.
Audit Process
Although every audit project is unique, the audit process is similar for most engagement and normally consists of four stages: Planning (Sometimes called survey or Primary review), field work, audit report, and follow up Review. Client involvement is critical at each stage of the audit process. As in any special project, an audit results in a certain amount of time being diverted from your departments as usual routine. One of the key objectives is to minimize this time and avoid deputing ongoing activities.
Planning
During the planning portion of audit, the auditor notifies the client of the audit, discusses the scope and objectives of the examination in a formal meeting with organization management, gathers information on important processes, evaluates existing controls, and plans the remaining audit steps.
Announcement Letter
The client is informed of the audit through an announcement or Engagement letter from the internal audit director. This letter communicates the scope and objectives of the audit, the auditors assigned to the project and other relevant information.
Initial Meeting
During this opening conference meeting, the client describe the unit or system to be reviewed, the organization, available resources (Personnel, facilities, equipments, funds) and other relevant information. The internal auditor meets with the senior officer directly responsible for the unit under review and any staff members s/he wishes to include. It is important that the client identify issues or areas of special concern that should be addressed.
Preliminary Survey
In this phase the auditor gather the relevant information about the unit in order to obtain a general overview of operations. S/He talks key personnel and review reports, files, and other sources of information.Audit Program
Preparation of the audit program concludes the preliminary review phase. This program outlines the fieldwork necessary to achieve the audit objectives.
Fieldwork
The fieldwork concentrates on transaction testing and informal communications. It is during this phase that the auditor determines whether the controls identified during the preliminary review are opening properly and in the manner described by the client. The fieldwork stage concludes with a list of significant findings from which the auditor will prepare a draft of the audit report.
Transaction TestingAfter completing the preliminary review, the auditor performs the procedures in the audit program. These procedures usually test the major internal controls and the accuracy and propriety of the transactions. Various techniques including sampling are used the fieldwork phase
Advice and Informal Communications
As the fieldwork progresses, the auditor discusses any significant findings with the client. Hopefully, the client can offer insights and work with the auditor to determine the best method of resolving the finding. Usually these communications are oral. However in more complex situations, memos and emails are written in order to ensure full understanding by the client and the auditor.
Audit Summary
Upon Completion of the fieldwork, the auditor summarizes the audit findings, conclusions, and recommendations necessary for the audit report discussion draft.
Working Papers
Working papers are a vital tool of the audit profession. They are the support of the audit opinion. They connect the clients accounting records and financials to the auditors opinion. They are comprehensive and serve many functions.
Audit Report
Our principal product is the final report in which we express our opinions, present the audit findings, and discuss recommendations for improvements. To facilitate communication and ensure that the recommendations presented in the final report are practical, internal audit discusses the rough draft with the client prior to issuing the final report.
Discussion Draft
At the conclusion of fieldwork, the auditor drafts the report. Audit management thoroughly reviews the audit working papers and the discussion draft before it is presented to the client for comments. This discussion draft is prepared for the units operating management and is submitted for the clients review before the exit conference.
Exit Conference
When audit management has approved the discussion draft, internal audit meets with the units management team to discuss the feelings recommendations, and text of the draft. At this meeting, the client comment on the draft and group works to reach an agreement on the audit findings.
Formal Draft
The auditor then prepares a formal draft, taking into account any revision resulting from the exit conference and other discussions. When the changes have been reviewed by audit management and the client, the final report is issued.
Final Report
Internal audit prints and distributes the final report to the units operating management; the units reporting supervisor, the vice president for Administration, the University Chief Accountant, and other appropriate members of senior University Management. This report is primarily for internal university management use. The approval of the internal audit director is required for release of the report outside of the university.
Client Response
The client has the opportunity to response the audit findings prior to issuance of the final report which can be included or attached to our final report. However, if the client decides to respond after we issue the report; the first page of the final report is a letter requesting the clients written response to the report recommendations.
Client Comments
Finally, as part of internal audits self-evaluation program, we ask comment on internal audits performance. This feedback has proven to be very beneficial to us, and we have made changes in our procedures as a result of clients suggestions.
Audit Follow-Up
Within approximately one year of the final report, internal audit will perform a follow-up review to verify resolution of the report findings.
Follow-Up Review
The client response letter is reviewed and the actions taken to resolve the audit report findings may be tested to ensure that the desired results were achieved. All unresolved findings will be discussed in the follow-up report.
Follow-Up Report
The review will conclude a follow-up report which lists the actions taken by the client to resolve the original report findings. Unresolved findings will also appear in the follow-up report and will include a brief description of the finding, the original audit recommendations, the client response and the current condition.CHAPTER 4Critical ANALYSIS

II. FLUCTUATION IN MARKET POSITION
A small change in focus of a large competitor might wipe out any market position, Ghafoor and company achieve.
III. FBR POLICIES
Sudden change in the policies of FBR urges ICAP to change its policies which put extreme pressure on chartered accountant firms to level their current status.
RATIO ANALYSIS
A ratio is a quantitative relation between two magnitudes of the same kind. In ratio analysis, the financial ratios of the firm are compared to that of its competitors. This comparison allows the firm to detect major operating differences, which, if corrected, will increase its efficiency. Another very popular method of ratio analysis is to compare the firms financial ratios to industry averages.
Before discussing financial ratios, three cautions are in order:
I. A single ratio does not generally provide sufficient information to judge the overall performance of the firm. Only when a group of ratios is used, a reasonable judgment concerning the firms overall financial state can be made.
II. An analyst, when comparing financial statement, should ensure that predetermined uniform standards are used for this purpose.
III. It must be ensured that the data used in calculating financial ratios have been developed in the same manner and are sound and reliable.
There is no doubt that financial ratios are a useful guide for managerial decision-making but these are not exact and definite. Ratios only suggest the questions that need to be answered and provide no answers.
Let us now calculate some of the key financial ratios of Taj syringes (pvt) Ltd for the years 2008-2012, and try to answer the questions that these ratios suggest.
These ratios are calculated from the Balance Sheet and Profit & Loss Account of TAJ SYRINGES (PVT) LTD. 1)CURRENT RATIO
Current Assets
Current Ratio
Current Liabilities
Current Ratio (2012) =20671907 / 13156669 = 1.32
Current Ratio (2013) =23393169 / 42097696 = 5.5
Current ratio of the Ghafoor & Co. has increased to 4.18 in 2012-12. This shows that liquidity of the company has increased. But it should also be kept in mind that too much liquidity decreases the profitability. The reason is that the cash on hand is the most unproductive asset and the surplus cash should be invested in short-term ventures.
2)INTEREST MARGIN
Int. Income Int. Expense
Interest Margin = ( 100
Int. Income
Interest Margin (2012) =
Interest Margin (2013) =
The interest margin of the company has improved from 35.7 percent in 2012 to 40.6 percent in 2013. This suggests managements efficiency to attract less costly deposits and make higher-yield investments.
3)NET PROFIT MARGIN
Profit after Taxation
Net Profit Margin =
( 100
Interest Income
Net Profit Margin (2012)=
Net Profit Margin (2013)=
The net profit margin of Taj syringes (pvt) Ltd has also shown an improvement as its raised to 3.61 percent in 2013 as compared to 2.32 percent in 2012. These signals towards higher efficiency and lower administrative costs of the company during 2013.4)RETURN ON EQUITY
Profit after Taxation
Return on Equity=
( 100
Share holders Equity
Return on Equity (2012)=
Return on Equity (2013)=
The return on equity has increased to 14.53 percent in 2012 as compared to 11.03 percent in 2013. The return on equity replicates the net profit margin trends, with the company registering good performance because of better efficiency.
5)RETURN ON ASSETS
Profit before Taxation
Return on Assets=
( 100
Total Assets
Return on Assets (2012)=
Return on Assets (2013)=
The return on assets has improved to 0.76 percent in 2013 as compared to 0.63 percent in 2012. This indicates the success of management to utilize the assets of the company efficiently.
6)INVESTMENT-DEPOSIT RATIO:
Investments
Investment Deposit Ratio
Deposits
Investment Deposit Ratio (2012)=
Investment Deposit Ratio (2013)=
The investment-deposit ratio of the company has also dropped drastically during 2013. This suggests a tilt of the company towards higher risk and consequently higher-yield investments, rather than undertaking less risky loaning activity.
