Final answer:
Option d, 'Does not include the opinion paragraph,' is not a type of unqualified audit opinion because the opinion paragraph is essential for any audit report to be considered unqualified.
Step-by-step explanation:
The student has asked which one of the following is not a type of unqualified audit opinion issued by auditors:
- Standard with three paragraphs.
- Includes explanatory paragraph.
- Includes modifications.
- Does not include the opinion paragraph.
An unqualified audit opinion is a type of audit report that states the financial statements of an entity present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position according to the applicable financial reporting framework. Options a, b, and c represent variations of unqualified audit opinions which might include additional paragraphs for emphasis or to draw attention to specific matters, but they still indicate the financial statements are presented fairly. However, option d, "Does not include the opinion paragraph," is not a type of unqualified audit opinion. The opinion paragraph is a critical component of any audit report, and without it, the report cannot be considered unqualified. In fact, an audit report missing the opinion paragraph would be considered incomplete or deficient.
