"The area of internal auditing is ripe for a wide variety of research" (Sarens G., Beelde D.I, 2004, p. 2)Internal audit is an appraisal activity which is established as a service to the organisation. The IIA defines the New Internal Auditing definition as "an independent, objective assurance and consulting activity designed to add value and improve an organisation's operations. It helps an organisation accomplish its objectives by bringing a systematic, disciplined approach to evaluate and improve the effectiveness of risk management, control, and governance processes."

Anderson was also responsible for some of Enron?s internal bookkeeping. Although questionable, it is far too normal for a big accounting firm, like Anderson, to provide such services to their audit clients. However, chief executive of Arthur Andersen, Joseph Berardino, suggested that the company might stop selling consulting services to firms it audits.Former U.S. Federal Reserve Chairman, Paul Volcker has been named to head an ?advisory board? to restore the tarnished image of Anderson.

The problems inherent to an integrated audit are of major concern, as the independence of the auditors is forfeited.

Ernest Hemingway’s Hills like White Elephants
The short story Hills like White Elephants by Ernest Hemingway is a story about a man and woman who are sitting at a bar at a small train station somewhere in Spain. They seem to be having a heated conversation about a mysterious “operation”. The author never explicitly says what the issue is between the man and woman, but it can be assumed it is about a huge and personal decision they have to make because of the literary devices the author uses. Throughout the story the author hints at what the mysterious operation really is. Hemingway uses symbolism, setting, and imagery to convey
