Book Description
Messier employs the new audit approach currently being used by auditing professionals. This new approach is a direct result of the demands of Sarbanes-Oxley, which has changed the way auditors do their jobs. The new auditing approach emphasizes understanding the entity (i.e., the organization or business being audited) and its environment (i.e. industry), and then assessing the business risks faced by the entity and how management controls those risks. This new audit process focuses on business processes instead of accounting cycles. This unique and innovative approach has been developed in response to changing market dynamics. The systematic approach, referred to in the subtitle of the text, reflects the early introduction of three basic concepts that underlie the audit process: materiality, audit risk, and evidence; this allows Messier to build upon this model in subsequent chapters. These are central to everything an auditor does and a unique feature of Messier. As such, this approach helps students develop auditor judgment, a vital skill in today's auditing environment.

Book Description
Auditing and assurance service education has undergone dramatic change in at least three ways: (1) An awakening that practitioners have a comparative advantage in offering professional services that transcend the boundaries of financial statements; (2) An understanding that client strategies affect engagement risk; and (3) A transition away from first-person delivery by classroom instructors only and toward third-person discovery by students both within and outside of the classroom. Each has influenced the seventh edition. To transcend the boundaries of financial statements, Auditing and Assurance Services exposes students both to the demand for and the supply of the profession's flagship service, financial statement audits, and to the nature of the value-added assurance services decision makers demand in the information age.
