    The objectives of a review in accordance with the statements on standards for accounting differ significantly with those of audit financial statements in compliance with the general accepted auditing standards. During a review the accountants will perform analytical procedures and will obtain their information from asking the management a variety of questions rather than obtaining an understanding of the internal control structures and obtaining evidential matter throughout inspection, observation or confirmation as an audit process requires. Upon completion of the process the accountants will issue an opinion providing limited assurances on the fair presentation of the financial statements. This limited assurance opinion is different from an audit opinion as it provides a lower level of assurance. Sources used: AR section 60: Professional Standards (www.aicpa.org), AU Section 150: Generally Accepted Auditing Standards (www.pcaobus.org)…

    Some people would agree with the statement because people will always have a difference of opinion. One person will always believe he or she is right in what they think, there will always be that one person who doesn’t want to just believe that he or she could be wrong, it’s basic human nature to fight over things such as; race, religion, land and wealth etc. As long as that continues in the world there will always be wars. For example “The conflict in Northern Ireland. “The troubles” the Republicans are Catholics who want to become an independent country. The Loyalists are Protestants who want to be part of the United Kingdom. In order to keep peace between them there is a peace wall, but I don’t think the peace wall keeps a lot of peace between them because of the negative feelings and violence associated with it.” There are not many quotes that support violence in neither the Bible nor any other…

    Why War Is Necessary

    For as far back as mankind dates back in it's existence, there has always been and always will be war. History all throughout the world holds numerous acts of war dating all the way back to the early years of civilization, up until even today's most recent problems. I believe war is a perfectly necessary action, especially when a hostile force makes unjustifiable attacks that put the safety of our country at jeopardy. This does not mean that every issue's solution has to be war. Simply, this means you deserve to be able to protect yourself against a bully. Of course there will always be the thought of being able to live in peace and harmony, but is that a realistic goal? There will always be bad guys with guns who wont take no for an answer. When an aggressor starts a conflict, you can make the choice to either defend what is yours by fighting back or you can surrender to their demands. I have worked hard for the things I have, and if going to war means protecting what is right then by all means, it is justified.…

    Benjamin Franklin once said, “There is no such thing as a good war or a bad peace.” Franklin argues that no war can be justified due to the countless casualties resulting from each war, and no peace can be claimed as being “bad”. As seen in significant wars throughout history, wars may in fact have both positive and negative results. Specifically, the Korean War and the American Revolution had a telling impact on the world; the Korean War, which bore millions of unnecessary casualties, and the American Revolution, which laid a foundation or future rises of democracy, are two examples that qualify Franklin’s statement.…

    Can War Be Justified?

    • 937 Words
    • 4 Pages

    Since September 11th, American news has been filled with stories and photographs of violent war. We were attacked mercilessly on our on soil, so most would say that the war on Afghanistan and Iraq are justified. But looking further into the matter, what are we really accomplishing with war? Are we proving that they shouldn't bother us anymore? Or are we just getting revenge? Neither are justifications for war. We should in the first place keep the best relations possible with other countries. Revenge; what does that do for what has already happened? It won't bring back the lives lost, and ultimently war will lead to the death of thousands of more innocent bystanders. Americans may believe that by going to war, we are preventing more attacks. While this may put on hiatus more acts of violence in our country, we are only fuelling the fire. We are stooping to their level, but saying that we are justified in our acts of violence. No one can justify dropping bombs that will kill innocent people, shooting a solider of another country, or using any kind of violence to solve their problems. As we can see from the situation in the middle east, war doesn't solve any problem at the rate or effect it should. War can never be justified and should never be invoked because no matter what you will end up killing innocent people, destroy relationships with other countries, and become our own enemy, in a sense.…

    Can War Be Justified?

    • 1097 Words

    For those who spend their lives working to prevent and end wars, whether and how war itself can be justified must be an urgent question. Of course, war’s justification is an ancient tradition. Bizarrely, Just War theory was formulated within the Christian church, whose founder chose a donkey instead of a war horse and taught his followers to overcome evil with good. Not only is the theory still mainstream among churches but, as Dan Smith, head of an important NGO working for conflict transformation who has written recently on the theory,argues - not only is the theory still mainstream among churches: it has become and remains influential in political and military circles. His exposition and discussion of it is thoughtful and nuanced. He acknowledges that its name is a misnomer and that it can be argued that war is never just, being full of injustices. He says that its criteria are hard to apply, given the uncertainties of warfare and that some may seem to be met while others are not. He clearly sympathises with President Obama’s predicament in ‘facing the world as it is’. On balance, he feels Obama has yet to win the argument that the war in Afghanistan is just.…
