Abstract
Analytical procedures play an important role in assisting the auditor in determining the nature, timing and extent of their substantive testing, and in forming an overall opinion as to the reasonableness of recorded account values. The present study compares the artificial neural network (ANN) system and traditional analytical procedures on pattern recognition in monthly account values. The results of the study indicate that the ANN-system has a better predictive ability on pattern recognition in monthly account values than the traditional analytical procedures used in this study.
