The COVID-19 pandemic created unique issues for auditors. Starting with how the audit is conducted, maintaining safety for staff and clients, and accessing client’s data and locations. Auditors also need to consider how transactions were posted, how government shutdowns affected the business, and how changes in consumer demand and spending affected the entity.
