Answer: A
Including the finding in the final report is a generally
accepted audit practice. If an action is taken after the
audit started and before it ended, the audit report should
identify the finding and describe the corrective action
taken. An audit report should reflect the situation, as it
existed at the start of the audit. All corrective actions
taken by the auditee should be reported in writing.
