This question is making me feel like a forensic accountant trying to catch the Joker! But seriously, I think the answer is B. The auditor's opinion is not a crystal ball, it's just a professional opinion based on the evidence they have.

C) The phrases used to express the auditor's opinion are ''give a true and fair view'' or ''present fairly, in all material respects,'' which are equivalent terms.

B) the auditor's opinion enhances the credibility of the financial statements, the user Cannot assume that the opinion is an assurance as to the future viability of the entity nor the efficiency or effectiveness with which management has conducted the affairs of the entity.

Oh man, this question is making my head spin! I'm going to have to go with D. The objective of an audit is to see if the financial statements are prepared according to the identified reporting framework. Easy peasy, right? *laughs nervously*

Aha, I've got this one! The answer is B. The objective of an audit is not to enhance the credibility of the financial statements, that's just a byproduct. The auditor is there to express an opinion, not make promises about the future.

Hmm, this is a tough one. I think the answer is C, but I'm not 100% sure. I know the auditor's opinion has to use certain phrases, but I'm not sure if they're exactly equivalent.

Whoa, this question is a tricky one! I'm not sure about the correct answer, but I'm pretty sure it's not B. The auditor's opinion doesn't guarantee the future viability of the entity, that's just common sense.
