SCOPE OF WORK

We will conduct our audit in accordance with auditing standards established by the Indonesian Institute of Certified Public

Accountants. We will perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error and, as a result from our audit, we will express an opinion on whether

the financial statements are prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with the applicable financial reporting standards.

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. An audit

also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.

In making our risk assessments, we consider internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation of the financial statements in order

to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. However, we will communicate to you in writing concerning any significant

deficiencies in internal control relevant to the audit of the financial statements that we have identified during the audit.
