Reference no: EM131046842

Disagreement with Management. Emiko Iamiva, Certified Public Accountant (CPA), audited the Satsuma Company's earthquake insurance policies. All routine audit procedures with regard to the earthquake insurance register have been completed (i.e. vouching, footing, examination of canceled checks, computation of insurance expense and repayment, tracing of expense charges to appropriate expense accounts, etc.). After the insurance review, Iamiva came to the conclusion that the insurance coverage against loss by earthquake is inadequate and that, if loss occurs, the company may have insufficient assets to liquidate its debts.

After a discussion with Iamiva, management refuses to increase the amount of insurance coverage.
