Sample Questions

Question 1 Easy
In an audit, sampling risk is the risk that:
Solution
B is correct.

AU-C 530.05 defines sampling risk as the risk that the auditor's conclusion based on a sample may differ from the conclusion that would be reached if the entire population were subjected to the same audit procedure. This is an inherent limitation of sampling — the sample may not be perfectly representative of the population.
Question 2 Medium
Which procedures are required in a review of interim financial information?
Solution
B is correct.

AU-C 930 limits the required procedures to inquiry of management, analytical procedures, reading the minutes of board meetings, and obtaining written representations from management. The auditor does not perform tests of controls, confirmations, inventory observations, or detailed substantive testing unless inquiry or analytical procedures identify specific issues requiring expanded procedures.
Question 3 Hard
An entity sells goods to foreign subsidiaries below market value. The auditor should:
Solution
C is correct.

The auditor evaluates the financial statement implications of transfer pricing arrangements. This includes verifying that intercompany profits are properly eliminated in consolidation, assessing whether the pricing exposes the entity to tax-related contingent liabilities such as penalties or additional assessments from transfer pricing challenges, and evaluating whether those contingencies require recognition or disclosure in the financial statements. AU-C 540, Auditing Accounting Estimates and Related Disclosures, and AU-C 501, Audit Evidence, Specific Considerations for Selected Items, govern this work.

What CPA AUD candidates are saying

“I practised the Lease questions subtopic by subtopic in Area 3F, and it was honestly a great experience. Learning felt much easier, faster, and more organised. It was especially helpful when I got a question wrong, because I could immediately connect the mistake to the exact concept.”
Harvin S.
“I have been finding the FreeFellow materials incredibly helpful. The way you break down complex topics is making a real difference in my CPA prep.”
Joshua S.
“I really liked the access the free tier has. The amount of questions you made is incredible and very accurate to the real deal.”

About FreeFellow

Jeffrey Ting, founder of FreeFellow
Jeffrey Ting
FSA, CFA · Founder

FreeFellow was built by Jeffrey Ting, a credentialed actuary and CFA charterholder who has passed thirteen of the hardest exams in finance, all on his first attempt. He paid four-figure prep fees along the way.

So he started writing his own questions, then lessons, then mock exams, until it grew into a full prep platform covering 40 exams with more than 45,000 original practice questions.

01
Cost shouldn't decide who gets in.

A CFA charter, a CPA license, an actuarial credential. Each opens a real career, but prep fees add to the cost of getting there. FreeFellow keeps its original question bank and written lessons free so you can study even if a paid course is out of reach.

02
Free should mean free.

The original question bank, the worked solutions, the topic lessons, mixed practice, and your readiness score stay free, forever. Full access needs a free account, and practice usage limits apply. Fellow adds AI grading on supported exams, spaced-repetition flashcards, full-length mock exams, analytics, and a study plan that adapts to your progress.
