Financial reporting - audit.
In financial reporting, misstatements are differences between amounts reported - or other disclosures - in financial statements, and the amounts or disclosures required by relevant accounting standards.
Factual misstatements include numerical errors and misclassifications.
Factual misstatements can be objectively determined with certainty, unlike judgmental misstatements.
