Inspection of accounts (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

audit

<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">inspection of accounts</span>' is the definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(inspection of financial accounts)</span><br/ ><br/ >This is the entire clue.<br/ ></span>

(Other definitions for audit that I've seen before include "Inspection of the account books" , "Financial review" , "Examine accounts" , "Review firm's accounts, annual check" , "Thoroughgoing check" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sunday Times, The Mirror, the Evening Standard, The Times, The Independent, The Washington Post and The Guardian.
