Making better use of internal auditors in real estate companies

Article Abstract:

The American Institute of Certified Public Accountants's Auditing Standard Board released the Statement on Auditing Standards No 65 as a guide for CPAs in incorporating the duties of a company's internal audit staff into the CPA audit.
