Explanation:
Very similar to IDW Auditing Standard AuS 450 "Generally Accepted Standards for the Issuance of Long-Form Audit Reports for Audits of Financial Statements", and to section 321(3) of the German HGB:
"The subject, nature and scope of the audit shall be described in a separate section in the audit report." (German: "In einem besonderen Abschnitt des Prüfungsberichts sind Gegenstand, Art und
Umfang der Prüfung zu erläutern.")
