    This document discusses audit procedures related to verifying accounts payable, accrued liabilities, long-term debt, and other liabilities. It indicates that unpaid bills and unmatched invoices are most likely to contain unrecorded liabilities. Reviewing post-balance sheet cash disbursements and reconciling vendor statements to receiving reports are effective ways to identify unrecorded payables. When verifying inventory, auditors focus on examining purchase invoices. Auditors can delegate test footing payables ledgers but should not delegate reconciling statements or preparing payable schedules. Reviewing note renewals near the balance sheet date verifies existence and completeness assertions. Auditing long-term debt involves examining indentures and assets purchased with bond proceeds.
