    a. A CPA will guarantee that financial statements are absolutely correct before issuing an audit opinion.

    Explanation:

    When a CPA carries out an audit he does not guarantee that financial statements are absolutely correct. This will not be true because items like depreciation are estimates from different methods.

    The auditor gives an opinion that the statements meet a generally accepted accounting standard.

    The CPA gives an assurance that the statements can be relied on, and verify the fairness of presentation of the statement.
