Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Management is responsible for making decisions and overseeing the financial reporting process of the company. As such, they are typically the ones who sign the engagement letter for an audit. While the board of directors' representative or audit committee representative may be involved in the audit process, they typically do not have the authority to sign the engagement letter. The corporate treasurer may be involved in the financial reporting process, but they are not typically responsible for signing the engagement letter.
