Rationale of research Along with the strong development of the economy, public audits are also constantly growing and become an essential demand on the economic race. Currently, in the economy, the information on FS does not only describe the whole picture of operating and doing business in the fiscal year of businesses, to stakeholders, they base on those to make their decisions and investments, thus, the information on FS is required to become more true and fair, objective and high reliable.

The audit report is more concerned by stakeholders because it expresses the degree of reliance of information on FS.
Along with Non-current assets and inventory accounts normally are high value and pervasive to FS, Cash and Bank accounts also plays importance role on FS, as Cash and Bank accounts are closely relative to the most of accounts on FS, particularly, Financial Position and Statement of cash flow and almost relate to sales and purchase cycles and payment transactions, which are important to the entity’s operation. Besides that, Cash and Bank accounts both are the most high-liquidity assest, therefore, almost transactions related to cash and bank are high value and high possibility of having frauds and errors. However, not all audits of cash and bank achieve audit objective and effectiveness. Moreover, the real story about Wirecard's bankruptcy caused by the disappearance of 1.9 billion euros in cash and bank accounts that was audited by a famous audit firm in June 2020 has been leading to controversy whether the audit procedure for cash and bank accounts on FS currently has been really focused.

In the past, the exchange of goods is made through directly trade off between objects. When the types of goods and services are variety, the trade is expanded in scope and volume, thus it is necessary to have specific and unified unit to trade, so the money occurs. “Economists define money as anything that is generally accepted as payment for goods or services or in the repayment of debts”.95) Mishkin (2016) pointed out 3 functions of money: - Medium of exchange: money is used to make payments - Unit of account: money is used to measure value in an economy - Store of value: it is a repository of purchasing power available over time.
