Which type of evidence was NOT collected by AuditOrg's audit team members?

The type of evidence that was not collected by AuditOrg's audit team is confirmative evidence. In the context of audits, confirmative evidence refers to information obtained to validate or confirm findings or assertions, typically through direct communication with third parties or by way of confirmations. It is generally used to reaffirm existing data rather than being the primary source of evidence that can establish the presence or absence of control.

In contrast, mathematical evidence involves quantitative data analysis and calculations to support findings, analytical evidence includes evaluations of relationships among different data points to derive insights, and comparative evidence involves assessing information against relevant benchmarks or standards. Each of these alternative evidence types provides a different approach to verifying the integrity and accuracy of information. Thus, confirmative evidence is distinguished by its nature of affirming rather than collecting new facts or supporting data driven by analysis, comparison, or calculation.
