A. Examine the seven loans to determine if there is a pattern. Summarize amounts and include in the engagement final communication.
B. Report the amounts to the loan committee and leave it up to them to correct. Take no further follow- up action at this time and do not include the items in the engagement final communication.
C. Follow up with the appropriate vice president and include the vice president’s acknowledgment of the situation in the engagement final communication.
D. Determine the amount of the differences and make an assessment as to whether the dollar differences are material. If the amounts are not material, not in violation of government regulations, and can be rationally explained, omit the observation from the engagement final communication.
