''Auditors' reports on financial statements & other matters.''
Fair Value Through the Statement of Profit or Loss.
 
Auditors form, and report, an audit opinion about financial statements that they audit.
 
 
The auditors do not guarantee - nor certify - the amounts in the financial statements.
 
The incorrect belief that they do, is sometimes known as the audit "expectation gap".
 
 
Similarly incorrect - and excessive - expectations can also arise about other assurance work undertaken by external audit specialists.
