IIA-CIA-Part1 Exam - Question 74


Which of the following situations allows for the most objectivity on the part of an internal auditor?

Show Answer
Correct Answer: D

Comparing current environmental activities against legislation allows for the most objectivity on the part of an internal auditor. This is because the auditor can rely on established and clear-cut legal standards, reducing the scope for personal bias or interpretation. Unlike other areas that may involve subjective assessments or judgments, legal compliance checks are grounded in concrete rules and regulations.
