Audit Scoring

Q. Can you give half marks on the audit?

A. Yes.

Q. Does the guidance in the auditor’s comments/observations column (right hand column) in the audit checklist correlate directly to the score given to the question (i.e., 6 boxes in the right hand column and 6 points allotted for the question – is each box worth 1 point each?)?

A. No. The guidance in the right hand column is only that. It does not directly correlate to the points allotted for the question. However, the left hand column DOES correlate to the score directly. Under the question in the left hand column, if there are boxes given, these will be directly related to the score. (i.e., 6 boxes in the left hand column and 3 points are allotted for the question – each box is worth 0.5 points each).
