Background

ASA 500 ‘Audit Evidence’ indicates that the reliability of audit evidence is influenced by its source, nature and the
circumstances under which it is obtained. ASA 505 ‘External Confirmations’ and GS 016 ‘Bank Confirmation Requests’
sets out the requirements and guidance for the auditor to maintain control over the external confirmation requests by:
 determining the information to be confirmed
 selecting the confirming parties
 designing and addressing the requests so the information is returned directly to the auditor
 Sending requests and follow up requests directly to the confirming party.

GS 016 ‘Bank Confirmations’ advises the auditor to send the bank confirmation request to the bank at least 15 working
days before the period end date.

Management Letter
March 25, 2016

Mr. Jose A. Cheng


President
CY Pacific Consolidated Inc.
65-67 16th Avenue
Cubao, Aurora
1103 Quezon City

Ladies and Gentlemen: In planning and performing our audit of the financial statements of the CY Pacific
Consolidated Inc., as of and for the year ended December 31, 2015, in accordance with Philippine
Standards on auditing (“PSAs”) as promulgated by the Auditing and Assurance Standards Council, we
considered the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit
procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances for the purpose of expressing our opinion on the
financial statements. In conjunction with our audit of the financial statements, we also performed an audit of
internal control over financial reporting in accordance with attestation standards established by the
Philippine Institute of Certified Public Accountants.

During our audit we noted certain matters involving internal control and other operational matters that are
presented for your consideration. These comments and recommendations, all of which have been
discussed with the appropriate members of management, are intended to improve internal control or result
in other operating efficiencies. The summary of key audit issues presented in this letter provides our
observations for your consideration in order to comply with the provisions of International Standard on
Auditing (ISA) 260 “Communication of Audit Matters with those charged with Governance”.

Our Audit procedures are designed primarily to enable us to form an opinion on the financial statements
and on the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, and therefore may not bring to light all
weaknesses in policies or procedures that may exist. We aim, however, to use our knowledge of the
organization gained during our work to make comments and suggestions that we hope will be useful to you.

We would be pleased to discuss these comments and recommendations with you at any time.

99 | P a g e

The purpose of this letter is solely to describe comments and recommendations intended to improve
internal control or result in other operating efficiencies. Accordingly, this letter is not suitable for any other
purpose.

Management Representation Letter


The following letter is not intended to be a standard letter. Representations by management will vary from
one entity to another and from one period to the next.
Although seeking representations from management on a variety of matters may serve to focus
management’s attention on those matters, and thus cause management to specifically address those

limitations of management representations as audit evidence as set out in this ISA.

STATEMENT OF AUDITOR’S RESPONSIBILITY


FOR FINANCIAL STATEMENT

Securities and Exchange Commission


SEC Building, EDSA Greenhills
Mandaluyong, Metro Manila

The auditor has a responsibility to plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about
whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether caused by error or fraud.

Because of the nature of audit evidence and the characteristics of fraud, the auditor is able to obtain
reasonable, but not absolute, assurance that material misstatements are detected. The auditor has no
responsibility to plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance that misstatement, whether
caused by errors or fraud, that are not material to the financial statements are detected.

The financial statements are management’s responsibility. The auditor’s responsibility is to express an
opinion on the financial statements. Management is responsible for adopting sound accounting policies and
for establishing and maintaining internal control that will, among other things, initiate, record, process, and
report transactions (as well as events and conditions) consistent with management’s assertions embodied
in the financial statements. The entity’s transaction and the related assets, liabilities, and equity are within
the direct knowledge and control of management. The auditors’ knowledge of these matters and internal
control is limited to that acquired through the audit. Thus, the fair presentation of financial statements in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles is an implicit and integral part of management’s
responsibility. The independent auditor may make suggestions about the form or content of the financial
statements or draft them, in whole or in part, based on information from management during the
performance of the audit. However, the auditor’s responsibility for the financial statements he or she has
audited is confined to the expression of his or her opinion on them.
