If the Engagement Letter states that the appointment is for one year, but after the completion of that period, the client decides to continue with the same auditor, should a new engagement letter be prepared, or can the existing one be continued?

Madam please tell me the meaning of positive confirmation request?
latest answer
There are two types of confirmation requests we can send to the 3rd party. Positive and Negative confirmation In positive confirmation- the third party has to reply whether they agrees or disagree. Negative - only when they disagree they will be replying. But this is risky, so it’s suitable only those areas where ROMM is less, or least exception rate is expected .

Relation between client and auditor is engagement. Assurance- where practitioner is required to give opinion on examination done by him In our discussion- yes. We are discussing assurance and non assurance with the point of view of a practising CA

In illustration, it is mentioned that Company has issued the Engagement letter to all 3 Auditors. Whereas SA210 says it is the responsibility of auditor to draft and issue EL to client. Whether the EL issued by client to auditor is a valid document?

Company issues appointment letter. Engagement letter is always from the auditor

The lack of neutrality in SPFs means they serve a specific purpose rather than presenting financial data for general stakeholders . Unlike general purpose which are for broad range of users or stakeholders, these are designed with specific objective and specific users .
