Answers
D.
Copies of operational managements records should not be included, but referenced so that they can be located
Suggested answer: B

Explanation:

The organization and content of workpapers should be based on the professional judgment of the internal auditor. Workpapers should provide sufficient detail to support the audit findings and conclusions but do not need to answer every conceivable question. Standard 2330 -- Documenting Information states that internal auditors must document relevant information to support the conclusions and engagement results. This allows for flexibility and professional judgment in determining what is necessary and appropriate to include.

Reference:

Institute of Internal Auditors (IIA), International Standards for the Professional Practice of Internal Auditing (Standards), Standard 2330 -- Documenting Information.
