I went cruzing through the book and found it specifically addressed.
For compilation engagement: generally recommended, required if no report issued. Representation letter: not required
For review engagement: recommended Representation letter: required
For audit engagement: required in most circumstance Representation letter: required
Conclusion: engagement letter not always required. Representation letter is absolutely required for and issuers and non-issuer's audits and reviews.
Thanks for asking the question. It clarified one item for me.
I use Wiley to supplement Becker, kind of like a security blanket I guess. I'm always careful when I read Wiley. I find contridictions between the 2, and I always stay with Becker. I think there are errors in Wiley. But you can log onto Wiley and get updates/corrections. I've seen Nan L. post the web site for this in this forum. If you are using Wiley only, I would definately log on and print off thier corrections/clarifications.
