How much does a SAS 70 audit report cost? How much does the type of report affect the cost of the report?
Because each SAS 70 audit report is unique and specific to each customer, the cost of an audit report can vary. While the reports themselves are guided by the SAS 70 standard and the AICPA, the information regarding the service organizations structure and controls (both included in the report under a section entitled Description of Controls) as well as the procedures performed by the service auditor to gain an understanding or test the Description of Controls does not and should not follow a generic format. The processes you use to provide services typically do not follow a generic format used by your competitors; therefore your report should not follow a one-size fits all methodology.
