Case Studies

Case studies illustrate certain auditing techniques. I have provided the examples below to serve as an illustration (and possible template) for your particular audit situation. Each of the case studies includes a data file used for the analysis, as well as a narrative and screen images of the the specific techniques used. To follow along with these case studies, both the ScriptBasic system, as well as EZ-R Stats for Windows are needed. Both are available without cost. If you don’t have the ScriptBasic software, the Windows install can be downloaded here .
