It is the responsibility of the auditor to present the nature and impact of the faulty accounting or misstatement in the auditor's report and express a qualified opinion or an adverse opinion. So option b. is correct.

A qualified opinion is one of four possible auditors' opinions on a company's financial statement. The other auditor's opinions are unqualified, adverse, or a disclaimer of opinion. A qualified opinion indicates that there was either a scope limitation, an issue discovered in the audit of the financials that were not pervasive, or an inadequate footnote disclosure. A qualified opinion is an auditor's opinion that the financials are fairly presented, with the exception of a specified area. Unlike an adverse or disclaimer of opinion, a qualified opinion is generally still acceptable to lenders, creditors, and investors.
