    D

    Explanation: Even though analytical procedures were performed during fieldwork of a compilation engagement, the agreed upon procedure was a compilation engagement. Additional review procedures was used during the compilation engagement for reasons the accountant deemed necessary. A review report can only be issued if the initial agreed upon engagement was a review of the company's financial statements and a full review engagement was conducted and not simply additional review procedures during a compilation engagement.
