Competent, Independent Person
The auditor must be qualified to understand thecriteria used and must be competent to knowthe types and amount of evidence to accumulateto reach the proper conclusion after theevidence has been examined.
The competence of the individual performingthe audit is of little value if he or she is biasedin the accumulation and evaluation of evidence.
