Sample audit program for auditing cryptocurrency transactions
Main Article Content
Abstract
Cryptocurrencies are one of the important current and future developments, as this importance led to several studies for them, but there was no explicit study to clarify the audit procedures as a contemporary and future topic, hence this study came to research the development of special audit program procedures in auditing cryptocurrency transactions.
The research aims to demonstrate the importance of establishing special procedures for auditing cryptocurrency accounting processes under international auditing standards, and to provide an audit program for cryptocurrencies, which is the main objective of the research.
To achieve the objectives of the research and answer its questions, the researchers followed the deductive analytical approach in the theoretical aspect, and the practical side (audit program model) was prepared based on what is required by professional organizations and the findings of recent research in this field. The research reached many conclusions, the most important of which was that there are certain procedures for auditing cryptocurrency transactions and the auditor must follow them to provide useful information to stakeholders to help forecast and evaluate the efficiency and effectiveness of management, as well as the most prominent goal of helping to present financial statements fairly to make appropriate decisions. The researchers recommended that professional organizations issue a standard or interpretations to address cryptocurrency audit issues, as well as enhancing the knowledge aspects of academics and professionals regarding cryptocurrency topics.
