常见问题
审计与鉴证
自 2010 年 3 月 1 日 起,MIA 发布了 《建议实务指南第 7 号》(Recommended Practice Guide 7,简称 RPG 7),作为专业审计及鉴证服务收费的参考指引。
MIA 发布该实务指南的原因如下:
● 随着审计准则要求提高,为持续提升专业技能并遵循专业准则声明,每项审计的合规成本及所需时间均有所增加。
● 多年来营运成本持续上升。
● 确保合理的报酬水平,以鼓励执业者/审计师维持并提升所提供服务的质量。
● 确保执业者/审计师保持专业操守,不因市场竞争而受到不当影响。
为秉持 《2010 年竞争法令》(Competition Act 2010) 的精神,并避免违反其任何条文,MIA 已决定自 2015 年 6 月 1 日 起撤回 RPG 7。
然而,该实务指南仍将作为审计师在履行职责及拟定相关收费时的参考指引之一。
(一)按时间计费
按时间计费的前提是假设所有信息与知识对所有客户而言具有相同的价值。同时,此方式往往低估了为妥善完成一项工作所需的研究投入,以及事务所长期累积的专业知识价值。
(二)按价值计费
按价值计费则充分考虑执业者在执行工作时所运用的专业知识与技能,以及其所需作出的专业判断。同时,客户所获得的价值,无论是功能性价值或情感性价值,均应体现在一项公平合理的应付费用之中。
1. 聘请专业且具备经验的会计人员/会计师
需要特别强调的是,效率低下或专业能力不足的会计人员往往会大幅推高审计费用。例如,延迟回复审计师的询问或资料请求,或交易记录方式不当,都会增加审计时间与成本。因此,公司拥有一名具备专业资格及丰富相关经验的会计人员至关重要。
2. 与审计师保持透明且积极的沟通
对于任何您认为审计师应知悉的问题,应坦诚并如实告知。彼此之间的相互尊重,有助于确保审计过程高效且顺利。各层级之间的及时沟通,可确保所有相关方对审计进度有一致的认知,从而提高整体效率。
3. 全年保持良好的组织与准备工作
妥善整理账目资料,并准备适当的会计明细表及每月对账。根据审计师提出的建议及时采取行动,以改善公司的内部控制。完善的内部控制可减少审计程序及所需时间,从而有效降低审计费用。
4. 确保审计采用自上而下的方法
审计师需要从整体角度了解公司的财务状况。若仅从试算表或子公司层级开始审计,可能导致过度审计,尤其是在合并财务报表中。因此,应确保审计师能够从合并层面的总体数据入手,再向下进行分析。
5. 处理复杂及非经常性交易
建议就复杂或非经常性交易提前咨询审计师。例如企业并购、终止经营业务或其他重大且不常见的交易。于交易发生时即让审计师参与,可减少审计时间及年终出现意外问题的风险。
6. 快速回应审计师的要求
延迟回应审计师的资料请求或询问,会拉长审计周期并不可避免地增加审计费用。迅速回应并事先准备好相关文件,有助于提升审计效率并降低成本。
7. 进行内部自我审计
在审计师正式进场前进行内部自我审计,可让公司有机会提前纠正部分错误。重点关注高风险领域及高金额项目,可减少后续审计程序,从而有助于降低审计费用。
8. 准备年度摘要报告
以备忘录形式向审计师提交年度摘要,列明年度内发生的重大及新增事项、人事或公司架构变动,以及对收入、费用、资产及负债的差异分析与说明,将有助于审计师更有效地规划及执行审计工作。
9. 将审计师视为合作伙伴
应将审计师视为公司的合作伙伴。除了审计工作外,也可借机与审计师讨论税务合规、业务策略、绩效衡量等相关议题。一项有效的审计应能为公司带来附加价值。
10. 着眼于长期合作
频繁更换审计师往往是最昂贵的商业决策之一,并极可能导致审计费用上升。投入时间选择一家与公司“契合”的审计事务所,不仅有助于长期降低审计费用,也能提升营运效率并通过成本控制改善公司的整体表现。

通过审计,管理层可更清楚地了解公司需要改进的领域,以及哪些业务流程运作顺畅。审计促使管理层对现有内部控制进行更深入的检视与加强,以防止看似微小的错误对公司造成重大影响。
f. 促进问责制并推动整体绩效提升
审计有助于提升公司管理层及员工的责任意识,使员工更加重视可靠的会计记录与管理实践。通过纠正自身工作的不足,员工可持续提升工作质量,为公司未来的发展奠定更稳固的基础。

一家公司直接或间接参与另一家公司的管理、控制或资本;或
两家公司受同一方控制。

该条文阐述了一项基本原则,即关联企业在进行交易时,应将其所控制的各项业务视为彼此独立的公司,并按照独立企业之间的交易方式进行处理。

Furthermore, you should gain maximum benefit from tax allowances and incentives, save time by letting tax consultants manage tax-related matters under the self assessment regime like computing tax, keeping accounting records on business for seven years, as well as paying the installments on tax estimates to the IRB.
Secondly, you can avoid or minimize tax penalties arising out of non-compliance with the tax laws and can capitalize on tax planning to minimize your tax liability.
Thirdly and also the key consideration would be the tax savings and costs to hire a tax consultant.
Generally, the fees range from RM 350 to RM 1,500 (excluding the bookkeeping fees, out-of pocket expenses, GST/service tax, applicable to individuals who have business income and are required to file Form P & Form B). It is important to note that the fee of having a professional prepare a statutory income tax return would depend on the type of income tax return forms, such as whether one is under employment or is an individual businessman, and the complexity of each case.If your income is derived from an employment source, it is very straightforward that you just use your chargeable income to deduct your tax reliefs. You may risk not doing a 100% accurate job, but if your tax savings are just a few hundred ringgit, it is difficult to justify the consultant’s fees.
However, if you own numerous properties, receive rental income and own business, your case becomes complicated. It would make more sense for you to look into hiring a personal tax consultant.
