I’m having a lot of trouble keeping these straight. Any guidance would be helpful! I understand what positive vs. negative assurance means, but what exactly does limited assurance entail. How are these terms used for audits, reviews, compilations, examinations, comfort letters? Here’s my understanding so far:
Positive assurance is used for audits because they provide reasonable assurance that there are no material misstatements in the financial statements.
Reviews provide limited assurance that there are no material modifications because the procedures for a review are less in-depth.
But I’m foggy on the rest…
