Wait, is this about the scope of the audit or the presentation of findings? I'm a little confused on which aspect of due professional care this is asking about. Let me think this through step-by-step.

Okay, I think I've got this. The supervisor reviewing and initialing the workpapers is likely the most direct way to ensure the engagement was properly supervised. That's the answer I'm going with.
