6. Walkthrough on PPE
While performing walkthroughs of PPE, we’re looking for ways that
property might be overstated. Moreover, what can go wrong, whether
intentionally or by mistake?
So, during walkthrough following questions must be asked.
 Are property ledgers reconciled to the general ledger?
 Depreciation methods?
 Relevancy of depreciation methods with the reporting framework
 Appropriateness of economic life of PPE?
 Controls regarding recording of PPE in the right period?
 Software used to compute depreciation?
 Periodic physical count of PPE?
