Question 340

During a routine controls assessment at a regional hospital, the IS auditor learns that the business case counts license savings but omits migration and support cost. The affected operation supports patient-care scheduling and claims processing. Healthcare service continuity and protected records are at stake. Where should the audit team focus its principal finding?

  1. Premature implementation can expose users to failures that realistic readiness and acceptance testing would have detected.
  2. Unverified cost, feasibility or benefit assumptions can justify a project that fails to deliver enterprise value.
  3. Projects may proceed with unapproved scope, unmanaged risk or unverified business accountability.
  4. Missing input, processing, authorization or monitoring controls can allow inaccurate or unauthorized business transactions.

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

Correct. Unverified cost, feasibility or benefit assumptions can justify a project that fails to deliver enterprise value. The described exception is: the business case counts license savings but omits migration and support cost. This risk ties the observation to the business significance of patient-care scheduling and claims processing, rather than treating management's claim as independent assurance.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Premature implementation can expose users to failures that realistic readiness and acceptance testing would have detected. The configuration must instead establish evidence appropriate to the audit conclusion.

C:

Projects may proceed with unapproved scope, unmanaged risk or unverified business accountability. It changes a different feature than evidence appropriate to the audit conclusion.

D:

Missing input, processing, authorization or monitoring controls can allow inaccurate or unauthorized business transactions. That change would not implement evidence appropriate to the audit conclusion.

Question 341

During a routine controls assessment at a regional hospital, the IS auditor learns that the business case counts license savings but omits migration and support cost. The affected operation supports patient-care scheduling and claims processing. Healthcare service continuity and protected records are at stake. Which substantive or control test most directly addresses the observation?

  1. Recalculate total lifecycle costs and benefits, test major assumptions and assess measurable benefit ownership and feasibility.
  2. Inspect governance charters, stage-gate approvals, issue escalation, change logs and sponsor decisions on material trade-offs.
  3. Compare signed releases, configuration baselines, deployment manifests, authorization and rollback test evidence.
  4. Review the design control matrix and challenge representative high-risk workflows with negative and boundary test cases.

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

Correct. Recalculate total lifecycle costs and benefits, test major assumptions and assess measurable benefit ownership and feasibility. The procedure directly tests the reported condition that the business case counts license savings but omits migration and support cost. A defensible IS audit conclusion requires relevant and reliable evidence from the actual control population and period.

Incorrect Answers

B:

Not the most direct fieldwork procedure for these facts. It changes a different feature than evidence appropriate to the audit conclusion.

C:

Not the most direct fieldwork procedure for these facts. That change would not implement evidence appropriate to the audit conclusion.

D:

Not the most direct fieldwork procedure for these facts. The configuration must instead establish evidence appropriate to the audit conclusion.

Question 342

During a routine controls assessment at a regional hospital, the IS auditor learns that the business case counts license savings but omits migration and support cost. The affected operation supports patient-care scheduling and claims processing. Healthcare service continuity and protected records are at stake. What outcome would provide the STRONGEST evidence that the identified gap is resolved?

  1. Approved baselines, independent feasibility results and post-delivery benefit measurements substantiate the expected outcomes.
  2. Signed acceptance criteria and independent failed-case retests demonstrate the production release can meet material business and control needs.
  3. Accepted design evidence and tested control cases demonstrate authorized, complete and accurate business processing.
  4. Authorized stage-gate minutes, traceable change approvals and resolved high-risk blockers support controlled project progression.

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

Correct. Approved baselines, independent feasibility results and post-delivery benefit measurements substantiate the expected outcomes. This is stronger than a manager's verbal assurance because it can be checked against the observed issue that the business case counts license savings but omits migration and support cost. The reviewer must verify the remediation period and scope.

Incorrect Answers

B:

Not the strongest closure evidence for this case. That result could pass without demonstrating evidence appropriate to the audit conclusion.

C:

Not the strongest closure evidence for this case. Acceptance here depends on observing evidence appropriate to the audit conclusion, not only that test.

D:

Not the strongest closure evidence for this case. It does not establish the requested evidence appropriate to the audit conclusion outcome.

Question 343

During a payment-platform modernization at a payment clearing organization, the IS auditor learns that a proposed platform assumes benefits with no measurable owner or baseline. The affected operation supports merchant settlement and reconciliation. Finance and settlement integrity depend on this operation. What control exposure MOST directly explains why this observation is significant?

  1. Unverified cost, feasibility or benefit assumptions can justify a project that fails to deliver enterprise value.
  2. Incomplete or inaccurate migration can corrupt business records even when the new application starts correctly.
  3. Development practices may omit critical reviews and traceability when controls are not embedded into the chosen lifecycle.
  4. Premature implementation can expose users to failures that realistic readiness and acceptance testing would have detected.

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

Correct. Unverified cost, feasibility or benefit assumptions can justify a project that fails to deliver enterprise value. The described exception is: a proposed platform assumes benefits with no measurable owner or baseline. This risk ties the observation to the business significance of merchant settlement and reconciliation, rather than treating management's claim as independent assurance.

Incorrect Answers

B:

Incomplete or inaccurate migration can corrupt business records even when the new application starts correctly. The configuration must instead establish evidence appropriate to the audit conclusion.

C:

Development practices may omit critical reviews and traceability when controls are not embedded into the chosen lifecycle. The evidence appropriate to the audit conclusion prerequisite remains unaddressed.

D:

Premature implementation can expose users to failures that realistic readiness and acceptance testing would have detected. It changes a different feature than evidence appropriate to the audit conclusion.

Question 344

During a payment-platform modernization at a payment clearing organization, the IS auditor learns that a proposed platform assumes benefits with no measurable owner or baseline. The affected operation supports merchant settlement and reconciliation. Finance and settlement integrity depend on this operation. Which evidence-gathering approach is MOST aligned with the recorded exposure?

  1. Recalculate total lifecycle costs and benefits, test major assumptions and assess measurable benefit ownership and feasibility.
  2. Walk through the development workflow and trace requirements, code reviews, testing and approval through representative releases.
  3. Reconcile source-to-target record counts and control totals; investigate rejected rows and test cutover and rollback.
  4. Compare signed releases, configuration baselines, deployment manifests, authorization and rollback test evidence.

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

Correct. Recalculate total lifecycle costs and benefits, test major assumptions and assess measurable benefit ownership and feasibility. The procedure directly tests the reported condition that a proposed platform assumes benefits with no measurable owner or baseline. A defensible IS audit conclusion requires relevant and reliable evidence from the actual control population and period.

Incorrect Answers

B:

Not the most direct fieldwork procedure for these facts. It does not establish the requested evidence appropriate to the audit conclusion outcome.

C:

Not the most direct fieldwork procedure for these facts. The relevant success criterion is evidence appropriate to the audit conclusion; this measures a different function.

D:

Not the most direct fieldwork procedure for these facts. That result could pass without demonstrating evidence appropriate to the audit conclusion.

Question 345

During a payment-platform modernization at a payment clearing organization, the IS auditor learns that a proposed platform assumes benefits with no measurable owner or baseline. The affected operation supports merchant settlement and reconciliation. Finance and settlement integrity depend on this operation. Which evidence would BEST support a conclusion that the exposure has been addressed?

  1. Approved baselines, independent feasibility results and post-delivery benefit measurements substantiate the expected outcomes.
  2. A sampled release has linked requirements, secure review evidence, passed tests and authorized promotion consistent with the method.
  3. Signed acceptance criteria and independent failed-case retests demonstrate the production release can meet material business and control needs.
  4. Signed reconciliations, resolved exceptions and end-to-end business checks show migrated data are complete and accurate.

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

Correct. Approved baselines, independent feasibility results and post-delivery benefit measurements substantiate the expected outcomes. This is stronger than a manager's verbal assurance because it can be checked against the observed issue that a proposed platform assumes benefits with no measurable owner or baseline. The reviewer must verify the remediation period and scope.

Question 346

During a regulatory readiness review at a municipal government, the IS auditor learns that the financial projection ignores contingency capacity required by recovery commitments. The affected operation supports citizen service accounts and public records. Public accountability and essential service access are affected. Which consequence would MOST directly follow if this weakness remains unresolved?

  1. Missing input, processing, authorization or monitoring controls can allow inaccurate or unauthorized business transactions.
  2. Without independent follow-up, unmet objectives and persistent control weaknesses may be accepted as project success.
  3. Unverified cost, feasibility or benefit assumptions can justify a project that fails to deliver enterprise value.
  4. Premature implementation can expose users to failures that realistic readiness and acceptance testing would have detected.

Explanation

Correct Answer

C:

Correct. Unverified cost, feasibility or benefit assumptions can justify a project that fails to deliver enterprise value. The described exception is: the financial projection ignores contingency capacity required by recovery commitments.
