Control operating effectiveness Calculator

Track how many tested controls operated effectively, from audit or self-testing results.

Governance, risk & compliance

How it's worked out

  • Effective = (tested − with exceptions − design deficient) ÷ tested. Exception rate = exceptions ÷ samples
  • One testing cycle
NoteOne exception does not always fail a control; it depends on your tolerable rate and sample size. See the audit sample size calculator.
