CPA AUD reporting on special purpose frameworks (OCBOA) involves auditing financial statements prepared using non-GAAP bases—cash, tax, regulatory, or contractual. Auditors must include an Emphasis-of-Matter paragraph highlighting the framework, state that it is not GAAP, and restrict distribution to specific users. 

Key Special Purpose Frameworks (OCBOA)
Cash Basis: Records revenues/expenses only when cash is received or paid.
Tax Basis: Used for filing income tax returns.
Regulatory Basis: Complies with requirements of a government agency.
Contractual Basis: Prepared to comply with a specific agreement. 

Reporting and Other Issues
Auditor's Report: The report must include an Emphasis-of-Matter paragraph referring to the note describing the framework and indicating that the basis is a basis other than GAAP.
Non-GAAP Disclosure: The audit report must state that the framework is not in accordance with GAAP.
Restriction of Use: Reports based on regulatory or contractual bases must often include a paragraph restricting the report's use to specific, intended parties.
Specific Elements/Accounts: Auditors can report on single items (e.g., rentals, royalties) rather than full financial statements.
Materiality: When auditing specific elements, materiality is defined in terms of that specific item, not the overall financial statements. 

Key Requirements
Framework Description: The audit must include an adequate description of how the special purpose framework differs from GAAP.
Management Responsibility: Management is responsible for determining the framework's acceptability.
Auditor Evaluation: Auditors must assess whether the framework is appropriate for the purpose of the financial statements.
