The most practical, authoritative guide to federal government auditing
Federal Government Auditing is a comprehensive, easy-to-use guide to the unique requirements of federal government auditing--requirements that can confound you if you don't deal with them every day. This information-packed, single-source reference is ideal for auditors of federal agencies and programs and financial dealings subject to audits by the federal government. It gives you up-to-date information on the applicable laws, regulations, and audit standards.
Written in a non-technical style and complete with helpful exhibits, this guide is a "go-to" reference for government auditors, inspectors general, public accountants, military comptrollers, legislators, state and local government auditors, budget offices, financial managers, and financial analysts. The information also applies to contractors and grantees, universities, and other non-profits and organizations that have repeated financial dealings with the federal government.
Created for both professionals and others performing federal government audits, this concise, yet comprehensive guide:
* Features an easy-to-use format that enables you to pinpoint needed information quickly
* Provides detailed guidance on what, why, how, and by whom federal audits should be made
* Covers federal financial statements, budgeting, accounting, and more

* Describes the scope and work required in an audit of federal departments and agencies
* Includes real-life examples of federal audits
* Has separate chapters devoted to single audits, performance audits, procurement and contract audits, and grant audits
