Audit serves to check whether the numbers listed in the financial statements have been presented accurately and fairly. There are two audits, namely general audits and special audits. Usually if the audit is intended only as a control and evaluation, it can be carried out by internal audit, but if the audit is intended to borrow money from banks, tax reporting, launching an IPO, must be carried out by a Public Accountant, specifically for government-owned companies must be audited by the Supreme Audit Agency and Public Accountants.

One of the major reasons why most businesses present today fail either small scale or large scale is caused as a result of not being able to analyse the books of the business effectively . Bookkeeping as we all know is essential to business . But we must understand that it is one thing to carry out bookkeeping practices and activities , and it is another thing to analyse content contained in the business books of account . The act of auditing by definition refers to the examination , inspection , and the carefully analyzation of the business books of accounts including its financial statements and inventory orders . The act of auditing is only carried out by an auditor and only he will be able to determine the financial state and standing of the business .

The reason why business organisation must be audited is to be able to make decision concerning the business doings and activities within it and to the outside world . Auditing also inform a particular business organisation on areas to improve and areas to work on , it also informs them on areas that they are presently doing well and must keep doing well .
