    Notes: An external management audit is an independent examination of anorganization resulting in a statement to external users on theperformance of the management function. A simulated corporate overdraftdecision was posted to 354 bankers with three groups of 118 bankersreceiving the same package of information but with different auditreports namely a financial audit report only, a favourable managementaudit report and an adverse management audit report. The response ratewas 58 per cent (205 respondents). Conclusion overall that the bankers'overdraft decisions were statistically significantly related to theaddition of an adverse management audit report. The reasons given by thebankers for their corporate overdraft decisions also suggest thatbankers would be interested in and would use external management auditreports.

    Notes: Reports research results which were presented to the Working Party of the Auditing Practices Board, which developed Statement of Auditing Standards 600 on the expansion of the audit report. Provides a brief discussion of the working party's reception of the research. Results revealed that, with the short audit report used in the UK until September 1993, a gap existed between auditors and users with 14 of the 18 audit dimensions having statistically significant differences. An expanded audit report (a British version of SAS 58 constructed by the authors) changed users' perceptions although ten of these 18 dimensions still had statistically significant differences between the users and the auditors. Expansion of the audit report is only a partial "solution" and needs to be combined with other measures, such as changing audit activities. An analysis of the dimensions for which users' perceptions of the audit are enhanced shows that expansion of the audit report allows the audit profession to enhance its status without any change in actual audit activities or auditor accountability.

    Notes: PurposeTo explore whether there is an audit expectations gap in the public sector between the Comptroller and Auditor General's (CAG) auditors in Bangladesh and the users of the CAG reports namely the Public Accounts Committee (PAC) of the Parliament that examines the CAG audit reports and the international funding agencies (IFAs) that provide external funding in the public sector in Bangladesh.Design/methodology/approachThe perceptions of CAG auditors and users of their reports were explored using a questionnaire based on a theoretical framework of accountability and six related audit concepts.FindingsThere were statistically significant differences in perceptions between 17 CAG auditors and the 15 members of the PAC on 13 of the 25 variables and between these 17 CAG auditors and nine representatives of the IFAs on 14 of these variables.Research limitations/implicationsThe relatively small number of respondents to this questionnaire is a limitation of this research project.Practical implicationsBetter training for the CAG auditors into their report users' information requirements and expectations and better training for the members of the PAC and the representatives of the IFAs coupled with more cooperation between the CAG auditors, the PAC and the IFAs might help to reduce this audit expectations gap in the public sector in Bangladesh.Originality/valueThis is the first time that statistical evidence has confirmed the existence of an audit expectations gap between CAG auditors and users of their audit reports in the context of the public sector.

    Notes: Summary The level of fruiting in four forest trees species (Picea sitchensis, P. abies, Pinus sylvestris and Fagus sylvatica) was monitored in Great Britain over the period 1989–1991. In addition, assessments of crown transparency were available for many of the trees for 1987 and 1988. The monitoring period encompassed severe summer droughts in 1989 and 1990, with wetter conditions in 1991. Variations in the level of fruiting in spruce and beech (Fagus sylvatica L.) were seen, with a marked peak in 1990. No pattern was apparent in Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris L.). Coning, which was greater in trees with the least transparent crowns, had no discernible effect on the crown transparency of the conifers. Cupule production in beech was greatest in trees with the most transparent crowns, and trees with high numbers of cupules in 1990 tended to have greater crown dieback recorded in 1991.

    Notes: Abstract There is currently a lack of convincing evidence linking air pollution and tree health in Great Britain. Field surveys have not revealed a clear association between the spatial distribution of crown thinning and air pollution; the crown condition of some species is apparently better in more polluted areas. This has been attributed to the confounding effects of climate, which is known to have a marked effect on crown condition. In this study, analysis of total sulphur contents of needles ofPicea sitchensis ((Bong.) Carr.),P. abies ((L.) Karst.) andPinus sylvestris (L.) reveals marked patterns that are correlated with modelled atmospheric concentrations of sulphur dioxide. Correlations with other indices of sulphur pollution, including wet and dry deposition and sulphate aerosol concentrations, are less consistent. However, no association has been found between the sulphur contents of needles and the crown densities of trees in Britain.
