This study aims to explain the key audit matters (KAMs) that are of particular importance to the IT sector, and how these matters are handled during the audit. The audit reports of 29 IT companies traded on the Istanbul Stock Exchange are examined by descriptive analysis. The results show that most KAMs are related to the revenue account, followed by development costs, trade receivables and goodwill impairment, in that order. In addition, it has been determined that KAMs are generally addressed during the audit while analyzing the company’s internal control system and conducting analytical reviews and detailed tests.
Bilişim sektörüne özgü önem arz eden denetim konularını, diğer bir ifadeyle kilit denetim konularını (KDK) ve bu konuların denetim esnasında nasıl ele alındığını açıklamayı amaçlayan bu çalışmada Borsa İstanbul (BİST)’te işlem gören 29 bilişim şirketinin denetim raporları betimsel analizle incelenmiştir. Analiz sonucunda en çok KDK’nın hasılat kaleminde bildirildiği, bunu sırasıyla geliştirme maliyeti, ticari alacaklar ve şerefiye değer düşüklüğü kalemlerinin takip ettiği bulgusuna ulaşılmıştır. Ayrıca KDK’ların denetimde genel olarak şirket iç kontrol sisteminin anlaşılması, analitik incelemelerin ve detay testlerin yapılması çalışmaları ile ele alındığı tespit edilmiştir.
