Assume yоu аre the аuditоr fоr Solentrа Mobility. Read the following fact set and answer questions A & B. In order to receive full credit you must clearly label your answers.  Solentra Mobility is a mid-sized manufacturer of modular electric vehicle components, aiming to support the shift to sustainable urban transit. The company has developed several long-term partnerships with regional transit agencies and recently relocated to a smaller facility to better align fixed costs with current production levels. While management remains focused on fulfilling existing contracts, the company has experienced periodic work stoppages due to staffing shortages following recent layoffs and resignations across multiple departments. The finance team in particular has been affected, with the former CFO departing earlier this year and no permanent replacement yet named. In addition, Solentra recently lost one of its largest customers, prompting a review of its current order pipeline and strategic plans. Remaining staff have absorbed additional responsibilities to maintain day-to-day operations. In recent months, Solentra’s suppliers have denied requests for trade credit, now requiring cash in advance for key materials. The company is in the process of restructuring its long-term debt after nearing default on loan covenants, and there is growing concern about its ability to meet upcoming interest payments. Although Solentra has declared dividends in prior periods, several remain unpaid. Management has paused R&D efforts and deferred capital investments while focusing on securing short-term liquidity. Cash flows remain negative, and the company has been relying on short-term financing and bridge loans to fund operations. Recent internal reporting delays have also complicated financial oversight, though leadership states they are working to stabilize operations. Continuation of business activities appears increasingly dependent on successful restructuring and access to new financing within the next quarter. A) Identify any issues from the fact set that raise substantial doubt about the entity’s ability to continue as a going concern. B) Assume you conclude that there is substantial doubt about the entity's ability to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time, please describe all of the steps you need to take as the auditor (include how this will affect your audit report).
