Abstract: In the studying of the specifics of the statistical evaluation in the frames of dichotomic audit check the attention is drawn to the dominating interest in the upper limit of confidentiality, the expected strong asymmetry of the distribution of the frequency of the irregular entities and the risks for drawing a not true conclusion concerning the checked audit population. Carried out is analysis of the factors influencing on the exactness of the evaluation in the conditions, specific for the audit. Studied are the opportunities for planning the sample based on hyper-geometrical distribution with preliminary set exactness of the evaluation. In connection with this is implied the statement that the determining of minimally necessary for certain exactness volume of the sample is possible, but due to the existence of many conventionalities the benefit of such procedure is not guaranteed.
