Bayesian Inference in Auditing with Partial Prior Information Using Maximum Entropy Priors
Problems in statistical auditing are usually one⁻sided. In fact, the main interest for auditors is to determine the quantiles of the total amount of error, and then to compare these quantiles with a given <i>materiality</i> fixed by the auditor, so that the accounting statement...
