Assignment 1- SOX Regulations


Review the Student Guide to Sarbanes-Oxley Act (SOX) located in Week 1 of the course shell, and other current activity or trends related to SOX compliance and implementation for publically traded companies.

Write a five to seven (5-7) page paper in which you:


  1. Assess      the sections of SOX, indicating the sections that you believe have the      most impact on companies. Provide support for your rationale.
  2. Assess      the sections of SOX, indicating those sections that have the greatest      impact on the external auditor. Provide support for your rationale.
  3. Evaluate      the external auditors’ response options requesting the external auditor to      limit testing and the scope of an audit engagement by giving consideration      to the ethical requirements and the auditor’s responsibility imposed by      the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (PCAOB). Recommend that      based option providing a justification for your recommendation.
  4. Evaluate      the cost / benefit ratio for most companies required to comply with SOX.      Indicate whether the benefits are equivalent to the cost for minimizing      the risk of accounting fraud. Provide support for your analysis.
  5. Use      at least three (3) quality resources in this assignment. Note: Wikipedia      and similar Websites do not qualify as quality resources
