Answer: B
Compliance testing involves determining whether controls
exist as designed whereas substantive testing relates to
detailed testing of transactions/procedures. Compliance
testing does not involve testing of plans. Regulatory
requirements are not by themselves tested directly in
compliance testing, but controls in place to ensure
regulatory compliance are checked.
