AICPA美國注冊會計師協(xié)會就質量管理相關準則征求意見

The American Institute of CPAs’ (AICPA) Auditing Standards Board (ASB) has issued the exposure draft (ED), Proposed Quality Management Standards, that includes three interrelated standards that address the way CPA firms manage quality for their accounting and auditing practices. The standards offer a new proactive, risk-based approach to effective quality management systems within CPA firms, which will improve the scalability of the standards and promote a system tailored to the firm and its engagements.

“As the environment in which practitioners offer services becomes more diverse, it’s more important than ever for CPA firms to tailor their quality management processes to their circumstances and maintain and enhance audit quality,” said Tracy Harding, CPA, AICPA Auditing Standards Board Chair. “Our proposed revisions to the quality management standards offer CPA firms a framework for developing a quality management system that addresses each firm’s practice. The framework is converged with international standards so that firms performing engagements under those standards and generally accepted auditing standards (GAAS) use a consistent approach to quality management.”

The ED aligns with the International Auditing and Assurance Standards Board’s (IAASB) quality management standards. The proposed standards include changes such as using the terms quality management and engagement quality review instead of quality control and engagement quality control review, respectively, used in the current standards.

The three proposed standards are:

Proposed Statement on Quality Management Standards (SQMS) A Firm’s System of Quality Management

Proposed SQMS Engagement Quality Reviews

Proposed Statement on Auditing Standards (SAS) Quality Management for an Engagement Conducted in Accordance with Generally Accepted Auditing Standards

The proposed standards would supersede Statement on Quality Control Standards No. 8, create a new QM section in AICPA Professional Standards and supersede SAS No. 122, as amended, section 220, Quality Control for an Engagement Conducted in Accordance with Generally Accepted Auditing Standards.

Interested parties are encouraged to submit their feedback to the ASB at CommentLetters@aicpa-cima.com by June 11, 2021. The ASB intends to begin addressing feedback at their July 26-29 meeting, and devote the entire August 11 meeting to further consideration of the feedback.

AICPA美國注冊會計師協(xié)會就質量管理相關準則征求意見

美國注冊會計師協(xié)會（AICPA）下屬的審計準則委員會（ASB）就質量管理相關準則公開征求意見，共包括三項準則：

會計師事務所質量管理體系（A Firm’s System of Quality Management）

項目質量復核（Engagement Quality Reviews）

根據公認審計準則對審計實施的質量管理（Quality Management for an Engagement Conducted in Accordance With Generally Accepted Auditing Standards）

上述準則通過積極、主動、基于風險導向的新方法增強了質量管理準則的可擴展性，完善了適用于會計師事務所及其業(yè)務的質量管理體系，指導會計師事務所實施有效的質量管理體系。

AICPA審計準則委員會表示，多樣化的服務環(huán)境要求會計師事務所根據自身情況調整質量管理流程，并提升審計質量。上述準則中的質量管理體系框架與國際準則實現(xiàn)趨同，從而使根據國際準則和公認審計準則執(zhí)行業(yè)務的會計師事務所采用一致的方法進行質量管理。該征求意見稿反饋日期截至2021年6月11日。
