    When doing an Excel spreadsheet especially dealing with financial statements, there are a lot of formulas and numbers to be tracked. In the problem we had missing numbers that needed to be calculated with the proper formulas in Excel. For the income statements the first number to be calculated was for the gross profit. This was accomplished by taking the sales of Winter Park Web Design and subtracting that by the cost of goods sold. Next was to find the depreciation expense. This was found by looking on the statement of cash flows spreadsheet of Winter Park Web Design under depreciation expense. The next missing calculation was for the net operating income. The net operating income was found by taking the gross profit and subtracting it from the depreciation expense and subtracting that from the selling and administrative expense to get the total for net operating income.

This was done by taking the earnings before taxes and multiplying the number by the tax rate. Last was to calculate the net income.

    Introduction An information technology audit, or information systems audit, is an examination of the controls within an Information technology (IT) infrastructure. IT auditing is a branch of general auditing concerned with governance (control) of information and communications technologies (computers). IT auditors primarily study computer systems and networks from the point of view of examining the effectiveness of their technical and procedural controls to minimise risks. IT audits are also known as automated data processing (ADP) audits and computer audits or IS, IT or ICT auditing and systems auditing. They were formerly called electronic data processing (EDP) audits History of IS Audit The concept of IT auditing was formed in the mid-1960s. Since that time, IT auditing has gone through numerous changes, largely due to advances in technology and the incorporation of technology into business. Functions of IS/IT Auditor IT Auditor often is the translator of business risk, as it relates to the use of IT, to management, someone who can check the technicalities well enough to understand the risk (not necessarily manage the technology) and make a sound assessment and present risk-oriented advice to management. IT auditors review risks relating to IT systems and processes, some of them are: 1. Inadequate information security (e.g. missing or out of date antivirus controls, open computer ports, open systems without password or weak passwords etc.) 2. Inefficient use of corporate resources, or poor governance (e.g. huge spending on unnecessary IT projects like printing resources, storage devices, high power servers and workstations etc.) 3. Ineffective IT strategies, policies and practices (including a lack of policies for use of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) resources, Internet usage policies, Security practices etc.) 4. IT-related frauds (including phishing, hacking etc)…
