AUDIT

An audit is an official examination and verification of accounts and records, especially financial accounts. The word comes from the Latin 'auditus' meaning 'a hearing,' because originally accounts were verified by hearing them read aloud. Today, audits are conducted by professional auditors who review documents to ensure compliance and accuracy.
