Auditors have been at the heart of many recent accounting scandals. The U.S. Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (PCAOB) recently inspected Kyoto Audit Corp., finding numerous insufficiencies, including the failure to adequate examine revenue, the allowance for doubtful accounts and inventory valuation. The PCAOB’s report states the firm “had not obtained sufficient competent evidential matter to support its opinion on the issuer’s financial statements.” Kyoto Audit’s clients include Kyocera and Nidec, both of which have U.S.-registered securities.
