Section A

Q1.

(a) सरकार की एक नियामक निकाय ने एक विशेष लेखांकन त्रुटि देखी है जिसका संबंध वित्तीय स्थिति के ग़लत विवरण देने के प्रयास से है। लगभग 85% कंपनियाँ, जो अपनी आय का ग़लत विवरण देने का प्रयास करती हैं, इस लेखांकन त्रुटि को करेंगी । जो कंपनी अपनी आय का ग़लत विवरण देने का प्रयास नहीं करती है उनमें इस तरह की त्रुटि होने की संभावना लगभग 5% है । यह अनुमान लगाया गया है कि किसी दिए हुए समय में केवल 5% कंपनियाँ ही अपनी आय का ग़लत विवरण देने की कोशिश करती हैं। मानिए कि ए बी सी कंपनी के अंकेक्षण में यह लेखांकन त्रुटि पाई गई है। क्या संभावना है कि यह एक असावधान त्रुटि नहीं है (यानि ए बी सी कंपनी वास्तव में अपनी आय का ग़लत विवरण देने का प्रयास करती रही है) ?

It has been estimated that the percentage of companies attempting to misstate earnings at any given time is only 5%. Suppose that in an audit of ABC company, the accounting error is discovered.
