The PRIMARY purpose of audit trails is to:

A. improve response time for users.

B. establish accountability and responsibility for processed
transactions.

C. improve the operational efficiency of the system.

D. provide useful information to auditors who may wish to
track transactions.

Answer Posted / guest

Answer: B

"Enabling audit trails helps in establishing the
accountability and responsibility of processed transactions
by tracing transactions through the system. The objective of
enabling software to provide audit trails is not to improve
system efficiency, since it often involves additional
processing which may in fact reduce response time for users.
Enabling audit trails does involve storage and thus occupies
disk space. Choice D is also a valid reason

however, it is not the primary reason"
