Assignment Question(s):
1.Ahad Abdullah is a staff accountant and has been assigned to the audit of Worldwide Enterprises, Inc. Subsequent to the completion of fieldwork, Ahad was assigned to draft the audit report. The content of one of the paragraphs he has drafted reads as follows:

Had these intangibles been capitalized, total assets would have increased by $400,000 as of December 31, 2011 and net income and earnings per share would be increased by $380,000 and $2.25, respectively (assuming a 20-year amortization period) .
a. Based on the contents of the paragraph above, which condition requiring a departure from a standard unqualified/unmodified opinion exists in the engagement?
b. Assuming that the engagement partner agrees with the paragraph Ahad has prepared above, where in the auditor’s report should the paragraph be placed?
