Random Sample Generator by Star Software

 
 

 
Fixed Asset Depreciation Our Random Sample Generator Software has been designed by C.P.A.’s to simplify random number selections for audit sampling purposes. Our software was created to provide an extremely easy method of obtaining random numbers to be used for audit random sample selections from multiple ranges of numbers.
Our multiple range entry makes our Random Sample Generator Software stand out from all other random number generators.  The sample population can be entered manually or imported from a csv/text data file. Multiple checking accounts with overlapping check numbers can be easily entered. We also feature selecting line numbers from pages of journals where the page number and entries per page are used as the population. The generated random number selections can be exported for use in other programs.
Our advanced version allows for calculating a suggested sample size using sample precision, confidence level, maximum expected error rate, and tolerable error rate.
