Financial statement audits performed under PCAOB requirements are designed to provide which type(s) of assurance with respect to the detection of material misstatements due to errors or fraud?

When conducting an audit, the auditor is responsible to perform the review and provide reasonable assurance that the financial statements are free of material misstatement.
