    Direct effect noncompliance: Reasonable; indirect effect noncompliance: none.

    Explanation:

    Direct-effect noncompliance is a noncompiance that has a direct and material effects on financial statement amounts. Examples of direct-effect noncompliance include the violations of tax laws.

    Indirect-effect noncompliance is a violation of laws that do not have direct relationships with the financial statements. Example of indirect-effect noncompliance include violations that have to do with environmental protection, occupational health and safety, etc.

    Reasonable assurance can be described as a high level of assurance that is not an absolute one but it is however related to material misstatements.

    Therefore, an assurance that Jones provide that direct effect noncompliance that is material to XYZ's financial statements and noncompliance that has a material but indirect effect on the financial statements will be detected is direct effect noncompliance: Reasonable; indirect effect noncompliance: none.
