Xiao is being faced with an intimidation threat. Xiao needs to consult GAAS (the CICA Handbook), standards employees and other resources to first determine what must be reported to the audit committee. Xiao should also consider that if management does not want to disclose these matters, that there could be other issues that management is hiding, making it difficult to complete the audit. If the weaknesses could lead to potential material misstatements, Xiao is required to report them to the audit committee.
