answer D is the correct answer

D) is the correct answer.

 

Internal auditor's work can be utilised by the external auditor, but it is the external auditor's choice; so audit fee may not be reduced.

 

Internal auditors report to the "audit committee which is made up of independent non-executive directors"; the chief executive officer; not the executive board of directors.
