Our audit approach

Overview

scope

Key audit

matters

  • Overall materiality: TT$15,885,880, which represents 1% of investment in joint venture.
  • In addition to determining materiality, we also assessed, amongst other factors, the following in designing our audit:
    • the risk of material misstatement in the financial statements
    • significant accounting estimates
    • the risk of management override of internal controls
  • Impairment of investment in joint venture

Audit scope

As part of designing our audit, we determined materiality and assessed the risks of material misstatement in the financial statements. In particular, we considered where management made subjective judgements; for example, in respect of significant accounting estimates that involved making assumptions and considering future events that are inherently uncertain. As in all of our audits, we also addressed the risk of management override of internal controls, including, among other matters, consideration of whether there was evidence of bias that represented a risk of material misstatement due to fraud.

We tailored the scope of our audit in order to perform sufficient work to enable us to provide an opinion on the financial statements as a whole, taking into account the structure of the Company, the accounting processes and controls, and the industry in which the Company operates.

Materiality

The scope of our audit was influenced by our application of materiality. An audit is designed to obtain reasonable assurance whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement. Misstatements may arise due to fraud or error. They are considered material if, individually or in aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of the financial statements.

Based on our professional judgement, we determined certain quantitative thresholds for materiality, including the overall materiality for the financial statements as a whole as set out in the table below. These, together with qualitative considerations, helped us to determine the scope of our audit and the nature, timing and extent of our audit procedures and to evaluate the effect of misstatements, both individually and in aggregate, on the financial statements as a whole.

Overall materiality

How we determined it

Rationale for the materiality benchmark applied

TT$15,885,880

1% of investment in joint venture

We chose investment in joint venture as the benchmark as this is the Company's most significant asset. The Company's principal activity is holding a 39% investment in the joint venture. This asset forms the basis for income generation for the Company and as a result, the users of the financial statements are focused on the carrying amount of this asset. We chose 1% which is within a range of acceptable benchmark thresholds.

We agreed with the Audit Committee that we would report to them misstatements identified during our audit above TT$415,450, as well as misstatements below that amount that, in our view, warranted reporting for qualitative reasons.
