Mokslininkai, analizuodami informacijos auditą, pažymi šio audito svarbą ir įvairius jo aspektus, tačiau praktinėje veikloje informacijos auditas neįsitvirtinęs. Informacijos auditas dar neturi parengtų standartų ir metodikų bei labiau panašus į mokslinę veiklą. Siekiant sukurti pagrindą legitimiai bazei, straipsnyje yra atliekamas informacijos audito pozicionavimas bendroje audito aplinkoje. Tyrimo metu įvertinamos audito rūšys, jos struktūrizuojamos ir atliekama informacijos audito bei kitų audito rūšių lyginamoji analizė pagal funkcinį ir kitus požymius.Pagrindiniai žodžiai: informacijos auditas, duomenų (informacinių sistemų) auditas, veiklos auditas, atitikimo (teisėtumo) auditas, informacijos valdymas, auditorių nepriklausomumasInformation Audit in the Context of Other Audit TypesIrmantas Aleliūnas, Zenona Atkočiūnienė Summary Information auditing requires globally applicable standards that pertain specifically to information auditing. Globally applicable standards are known in financial, performance, information systems (electronic data processing) and other types of audits. However, information audit is rather scientific than practical activity – information audit standards are not agreed yet, therefore:• minimum level of acceptable performance required to meet the professional responsibilities is not yet set out • Stakeholders and shareholders have no information concerning the work of information auditing practitionersThese problems incited the purpose of the research – to analyse relationships between information audit and other audit types and to find a basis for the concepts and standards of information audit.;

Audito metodologija plačiai nagrinėjama tiek užsienio, tiek Lietuvos autorių mokslinėje literatūroje, tačiau išsamių studijų, kuriose būtų sistemingai analizuojamos visos šiuo metu naudojamos audito rūšys, nėra daug. Kokybės audito metodologija taip pat nėra iki galo išnagrinėta ir aiškiai susisteminta. Nagrinėjant audito koncepcijas sunku vienareikšmiškai nustatyti, kuriam audito tipui – veiklos ar valdymo – yra priskiriamas kokybės auditas. Atlikta mokslinės literatūros analizė atskleidė, kad visoje audito sistemoje kokybės auditą galima identifikuoti kaip veiklos audito sudedamąją dalį. Kokybės auditas yra svarbus visoje audito sistemoje, nes jis yra dalis vertinimo proceso, kuriuo auditoriai atskleidžia tobulintinas organizacijos veiklos kokybės sritis. Straipsnyje, remiantis teorinės literatūros sistemine analize ir kokybės auditorių bei ekspertų anketinės apklausos rezultatais, suformuotas audito sistemos pagal funkcinį požymį modelis, identifikuoti kokybės audito atlikimo būdų pranašumai ir trūkumai, pateiktos kokybės audito metodologijos tobulinimo rekomendacijos.Pagrindiniai žodžiai: kokybės auditas, audito procesas, audito sistema, audito metodologija, tobulinimas, modelis, apklausa.
Quality audit: concept and methodology improvementIndrė Pečiulytė, Juozas Ruževičius
SummaryThe methodology of audit is extensively researched by both foreign and Lithuanian authors, but there isn’t a complete theory of audit, in which all the currently existing types of audit are mentioned. This is due to the fact that the quality audit methodology is not fully explored and clearly systematized. When analyzing audit concepts, it is a challenge to determine which type of audit – performance or management – is attributable to the quality audit. The theoretical analysis has shown that in the audit system the quality audit can be assigned as part of the performance audit. Quality audit is important throughout the audit system as it is part of the evaluation process, which helps auditors to reveal areas for improvement within their organizations. According to the theoretical literature systematic analysis and the quality auditors’ questionnaire survey results, in this study the audit system model by the functional character has been formed, the advantages and disadvantages of quality audit techniques have been identified, and recommendations for the quality audit methodology improvement are presented.Keywords: quality audit, auditing process, audit system, audit methodology, improvement, survey, model.

ABSTRACT The Russian regulatory environment offers a unique audit duality situation in which public companies receive two separate financial statement audits by the same audit firm: one based on Russian Accounting Standards (RAS) and the other on International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). We assess whether audit duality influences audit quality, measured by modifications to the standard audit report. Using a sample of public Russian companies from 2004 to 2016, we find that audit duality significantly reduces auditors' propensity to modify the audit opinions for both the RAS and IFRS audits as compared to companies that engage a different firm for each audit. This potential reduction in audit quality is mitigated when the company is in a loss position. The presence of Big N dual auditors does not diminish the observed findings and, in fact, appears to translate into lower-quality RAS-based audits of financially distressed companies.

The problems of low Audit Coverage Ratio (ACR) and Additional Underpaid Tax Assessment Letters (SKPKBT), tax audit period, and tax determination expiration considerations indicate that this phenomenon is necessary to produce an ideal (legal) concept related to audit sampling in tax audits for Indonesia. Based on the normative juridical method, it was concluded that there is a need for legal certainty related to audit sampling based on the constitutional order in connection with the fulfillment of tax law requirements as a lex specialist derogat lex generalist. The absence of audit sampling provisions in tax audits is based on the absence of statutory regulations binding on taxpayers, tax authorities, and certain third parties. In fact, there is always uncertainty in tax audits, there is a need for sufficient legal evidence in tax audits, there is a need to consider efficiency and economic benefits in carrying out tax audits, there is a need to use the means of professional judgment of tax examiners, and a reasonable basis is needed to conclude the characteristics of a population in a tax audit.

Full textAbstract:
This paper investigates and assesses whether a joint audit engagement results in higher audit quality compared to a single audit given audit firms’ characteristics and complexity of their clients’ activities. The research adopts a survey-based questionnaire sent to external auditors of five audit firms with international affiliation including two Big 4 firms to assess their perceptions about whether joint audit improves audit quality compared to a single audit. Also, interviews with audit partners and professors of auditing were made to check the reliability of the survey. Descriptive and inferential statistics are used to test the research hypotheses. The results reveal that joint audit enhances the quality of the audit as auditors in joint audits deliver high audit quality and ensure continuity with the client. The results also confirm the importance to perform joint audit engagements involving one of the Big 4 with one audit partner possessing industry specialization related to the audit engagement. However, no variation was found in audit quality in a joint audit compared to a single audit for listed companies compared to non listed companies even when there are discrepancies in the joint audit partners’ level of competence and experience. The study is among the first to survey the impact of joint audits compared to single audits on audit quality in an emerging economy. The study identifies valuable insights and provides recommendations to audit firms, professional and oversight bodies, and government to encourage the use of joint audits versus single audits to improve audit quality

INTRODUCTION Clinical audit plays an important role in the drive to improve the quality of patient care and thus forms a cornerstone of clinical governance. Assurance that the quality of patient care has improved requires completion of the audit cycle. A considerable sum of money and time has been spent establishing audit activity in the UK. Failure to close the loop undermines the effectiveness of the audit process and wastes resources. PATIENTS AND METHODS We analysed the effectiveness of audit in trauma and orthopaedics at a local hospital by comparing audit projects completed over a 6-year period to criteria set out in the NHS National Audit and Governance report. RESULTS Of the 25 audits performed since 1999, half were presented to the relevant parties and only 20% completed the audit cycle. Only two of these were audits against national standards and 28% were not based on any standards at all. Only a third of the audits led by junior doctors resulted in implementation of their action plan compared to 75% implementation for consultant-led and 67% for nurse-led audits. CONCLUSIONS A remarkably large proportion of audits included in this analysis failed to meet accepted criteria for effective audit. Audits completed by junior doctors were found to be the least likely to complete the cycle. This may relate to the lack of continuity in modern medical training and little incentive to complete the cycle. Supervision by permanent medical staff, principally consultants, and involvement of the audit department may play the biggest role in improving implementation of change.

PurposeA clinical audit is a key component of the clinical governance framework. The rate of audit completion in general surgery has not been investigated. The purpose of this paper is to assess the rates of audit activity and completion and explore the barriers to successful audit completion.Design/methodology/approachThis was a multi-centre study evaluating current surgical audit practice. A standardised audit proforma was designed. All clinical audits in general surgery during a two-year period were identified and retrospectively reviewed. Data held by the audit departments were collated, and individual audit teams were contacted to verify the data accuracy. Audit teams failing to complete the full audit cycle with a re-audit were asked to explain the underlying reasons behind this.FindingsOf the six trusts approached, two refused to participate, and one failed to initiate the project. A total of 39 audits were registered across three surgical directorates. Only 15 out of 39 audits completed at least one audit cycle, with 4 deemed of no value to re-audit. Only seven audits were completed to re-audit. Achieving a publication or a presentation was the most cited reason for not completing the audit loop.Originality/valueThis study demonstrates that the poor rates of audit completion rate found in other areas of clinical medicine pervade general surgery. Improved completion of an audit is essential and strategies to achieve this are urgently needed.

SUMMARY We study whether audit-partner quality influences the probability of annual report misstatements (measured by restatements) and whether various levels of quality control attenuate such influences. We measure audit-partner quality with audit failure rate (i.e., the total number of audit failures associated with an audit partner divided by the total number of audit reports signed by the same partner). We report the following key findings. First, an audit partner's past audit failure rate is positively associated with the probability that the current year annual report that he/she audits is subsequently restated. This positive association is more pronounced for engagement partners (i.e., partners who actually conduct the audits) than for review partners (i.e., partners who review the audits). Incorporating audit-partner audit failure rates substantially increases the predictive power for future financial report restatements. Second, neither engagement-team-level nor audit-firm-level quality controls consistently attenuate engagement audit partners' influence on the probability of future restatements. Third, engagement audit partners' influence on the probability of future restatements becomes stronger for audits of more important clients. Taken together, the evidence suggests that, despite various levels of quality control, audit-partner quality significantly influences engagement quality and that such influences are exacerbated by the audit partners' own economic incentives.

This paper puts a conceptual framework to outline research for corporate social responsibility (CSR) audit based on the analysis of current CRS literature and audit models as implementation of CSR. It is intended to make clear the phenomena about the relationship between audit, implementation of business ethics principles and corporate governance. However, most studies do not take into account modify CSR audit. This paper reports part of a research we carried out on the theoretical interpretation of the corporate social responsibility audit. This paper examines the corporate social responsibility audit as a composition of four categories - management system audits, on-site audits, verbal probability expressions (VPE) audits and technology audits. The paper concludes suggests to systematize multiple audits so that they can be conduct in three types of audits - environmental management audits covering in-house companies, environmental technology audits of products, and environmental audits of sites, including non-manufacturing sites and non-consolidated subsidiaries.

This study examines the influence of audit fees, independence, and competence on audit quality in KAP Surabaya and Malang. Data was collected using a saturated sampling approach, wherein questionnaires were distributed to gather responses. The response rate for the study was 78%, with a total of 39 completed questionnaires out of the 50 distributed. The collected data was analyzed using multiple linear regression in SPSS Version 25. The findings indicate significant results. Firstly, higher audit fees positively impacted audit quality, suggesting that auditors receiving higher fees devote more time and resources to conducting thorough audits, leading to better quality outcomes. Secondly, independence had a positive and significant effect on audit quality, implying that auditors maintaining a higher level of independence demonstrate professional skepticism, objectivity, and impartiality, resulting in higher-quality audits. Thirdly, competence positively influences audit quality, indicating that auditors with more excellent technical knowledge, experience, and professional skills perform more accurate and reliable audits, thereby enhancing audit quality. These findings emphasize the importance of adequate audit fees, promoting independence, and enhancing auditor competence to ensure high-quality audits. Audit firms and regulators should consider these factors when formulating audit policies and procedures. This study provides valuable insights into the relationship between audit fees, independence, competence, and quality. By understanding these factors, stakeholders can strive to improve audit practices and standards, ultimately leading to more effective and reliable auditing processes.

This article provides an empirical contribution to deterrence analysis by evaluating the effect of tax audits on compliance taxpayer behaviors over the 2004 to 2009 period. We use two unique databases: the Tax Return Register (Anagrafe Tributaria) and Italian Revenue Agency (IRA) audits data, with a focus on self-employment and sole proprietorships. The difference-in-differences approach has been applied as estimation strategy to evaluate the effect of three IRA audit policies: on-site audit (i.e., soft audit), desk audit (i.e., deep audit), and a combination of on-site and desk audit activities. Our results show an overall positive effect of tax audits in terms of deterrence. In particular, the contemporaneous presence of soft and deep audits has the greatest effect on compliance reporting behaviors. Moreover, on-site audits show greater effects compared to desk audit activities. Reasons can be found in different purposes for which various policies are designed.

The present study is intended to scholarly explore auditors’ perceptions regarding joint audits; whether it can improve audit quality. To reach this goal, participants were enrolled from Big 4, non-Big 4, and other stockholders. In addition, the present study examines the perception of the same stakeholders in terms of how audit concentration affects the audit market in the UAE. Being a qualitative study, 12 semi-structured interviews were conducted to collect required data; 4 face to face and 8 through using Google forms. The finding of the study revealed mixed perception regarding joint audits; it may improve audit quality at the cost of high fees and free-rider problems. Findings of the study has practical implication for policymakers of emerging economies around the globe, such as policymakers who can make joint audits as compulsory. Another significance of the present work is that it has allowed for the perception of stakeholders, who are at the center of the controversial subject of joint audits and audit market concentration. The study suggests that there is a need for removing language barriers; it will benefit some firms in the form of directly communicating with auditors either in English or in Urdu.

Performance audit is widespread but contested. The “audit society” proposition holds that audits are rituals producing comfort, whereas the “mandatory audit” proposition in public policy presumes that audits have positive impacts. Common to both propositions is the lack of empirical evidence of audit impact. This article analyzes survey data of the auditees’ tendency to make changes as a consequence of Supreme Audit Institutions’ performance audits. Civil servants who had experienced performance audits responded that ministries and agencies tend to make changes, but instrumental, institutional, and political factors have an effect on the institution’s propensity to make changes.

Full textAbstract:
ABSTRACT In this study, we examine the benefits of membership in an accounting firm association, network, or alliance (collectively referred to as “an association”). Associations provide member accounting firms with numerous benefits, including access to the expertise of professionals from other independent member firms, joint conferences and technical trainings, assistance in dealing with staffing and geographic limitations, and the ability to use the association name in marketing materials. We expect these benefits to result in higher-quality audits and higher audit fees (or audit fee premiums). Using hand-collected data on association membership, we find that association member firms conduct higher-quality audits than nonmember firms, where audit quality is proxied for by fewer Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (PCAOB) inspection deficiencies and fewer financial statement misstatements, as well as less extreme absolute discretionary accruals and lower positive discretionary accruals. We also find that audit fees are higher for clients of member firms than for clients of nonmember firms, suggesting that clients are willing to pay an audit fee premium to engage association member audit firms. Finally, we find that member firm audits are of similar quality to a size-matched sample of Big 4 audits, but member firm clients pay lower fee premiums than do Big 4 clients. Our inferences are robust to the use of company size-matched control samples, audit firm size-matched control samples, propensity score matching, two-stage least squares regression, and to analyses that consider changes in association membership. Our findings should be of interest to regulators because they suggest that association membership assists small audit firms in overcoming barriers to auditing larger audit clients. In addition, our findings should be informative to audit committees when making auditor selection decisions, and to investors and accounting researchers interested in the relation between audit firm type and audit quality.

Despite the challenges encountered in the field, audit quality within the scope of internal audit remains a top priority. The study outlines the ways in how remote audits impact audit quality and the approaches implemented by internal auditors to enhance audit quality. Examining the effect of remote auditing on audit quality is appropriate given the COVID-19 pandemic. This combination of auditor competence and time budget pressure to moderate the effect of remote audits on internal audit quality are also addressed in this study. Survey data is used in this study to measure how far APIP in East Java Province began using remote auditing after the epidemic. SmartPLS is used in the analytical method combined with the Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) model such as reliability and convergent validity test, discriminant validity test and PLS path algorithm and bootstrapping test. The research questionnaire's are measured using a Likert scale (1-7). Remote audits have a positive effect on improving internal audit quality, according to the result of a survey conducted towards 76 out of 100 internal auditors. But auditor competence and time budget pressure does not significantly moderate such a relationship. The research's conclusions have significance for practitioners looking to improve audit quality in remote audits and may benefit users of financial reports to comprehend the level of audit quality in remote audits

ABSTRACT This study is aimed to examine and analyze the influence of Independent Board of Commissioners, Audit Committee, and Audit Quality on Tax Avoidance. The sample in this study is mining companies listing on the Indonesia Stock Exchange in the period 2017-2019. Researchers are interested in doing this study because the mining sector provides high economic value to the country but the tax contribution from this sector is still minimal. The analysis used the multiple linear regression technique using the SPSS 20.0 program. The results of this study indicate that partially independent board of commissioners and audit quality have an effect on tax avoidance, however the audit committee has no partial effect on tax avoidance. Simultaneously the independent board of commissioners, audit committee and audir quality have an effect on tax avoidance. This study is expected to provide benefits for the government, companies and for future researchers.Keywords : Independent Board of Commissioners; Audit Committee; Audit Quality;Tax AvoidanceCorrespondence to : yuliana_ok99@yahoo.com ABSTRAK Studi ini bertujuan untuk memverifikasi dan menganalisis pengaruh Dewan Komisaris Independen, Komite Audit, dan Kualitas Audit terhadap Penghindaran Pajak.

AbstractThe Audit Regulation was adopted in 2014 to address many of the perceived failings in the market for statutory audits. It introduced mandatory audit firm rotation for public-interest entities, including listed companies, as of 17 June 2020/2023. Mandatory audit firm rotation was also considered by the Dutch legislator in 2012. Therefore, many Dutch listed companies had already switched audit firm in anticipation of the national requirement. In this article, we investigate the effects of mandatory audit firm rotation in the Netherlands by examining the financial reports of Dutch listed firms over the financial years 2012–2016 and by conducting a survey among stakeholders. We conclude that there is broad support for mandatory audit firm rotation in the Netherlands. Although mandatory audit firm rotation was seen as controversial at the time of adoption, it is now considered desirable by various stakeholders, including auditors themselves. However, mandatory audit firm rotation appears to have had some adverse effects. Most notably, our study shows a higher probability of errors in first year audits. The discount in audit fees provided by audit firms to lucrative larger public-interest entities for first year audits—the trophy client effect—may exacerbate the negative effect on audit quality. The Audit Regulation’s goals to improve the market for statutory audits have not been met so far.

Without considering the existence of third-party audit supervision and considering the existence of third-party audit supervision, the principal-agent model of major engineering audits between government and audit organizations was constructed. The analytical solutions under various hypothetical conditions were analyzed for the government. The optimal incentive policy for major engineering audits provides the basis. The analysis results prove that, the introduction of third-party units for audit supervision can effectively stimulate audit behavior, reduce information asymmetry, and create higher engineering quality and audit quality in the process of major engineering audit.

SUMMARY: Using a large sample of U.S. audit client firms over the period 2000–2005, this paper investigates whether and how the size of a local practice office within an audit firm (hereafter, office size) is a significant, engagement-specific factor determining audit quality and audit fees over and beyond audit firm size at the national level and auditor industry leadership at the city or office level. For our empirical tests, audit quality is measured by unsigned abnormal accruals, and the office size is measured in two different ways: one based on the number of audit clients in each office and the other based on a total of audit fees earned by each office. Our results show that the office size has significantly positive relations with both audit quality and audit fees, even after controlling for national-level audit firm size and office-level industry expertise. These positive relations support the view that large local offices provide higher-quality audits compared with small local offices, and that such quality differences are priced in the market for audit services.

Background: Clinical audit is an important tool to improve patient care and outcomes in health service. A significant proportion of time and economic resources are spent on activities related to clinical audit. Completion of audit cycle is essential to confirm the improvements in healthcare delivery. We aimed this study to evaluate audits carried out within trauma and orthopaedic unit of a teaching hospital over the last 4 years, and establish the proportions which were re-audited as per recommendations. Methods: Data was collected from records of the clinical audit department. All orthopaedic audit projects from 2005 to 2009 were included in this study. The projects were divided in to local, regional and national audits. Data regarding audit lead clinicians, completion and presentation of projects, recommendations and re-audits was recorded. Results: Out of 61 audits commenced during last four years, 19.7% (12) were abandoned, 72.1% (44) were presented and 8.2 % (5) were still ongoing. The audit cycle was completed in only 29% (13) projects. Conclusion: Change of junior doctors every 4~6 months is related to fewer re-audits. Active involvement by supervising consultant, reallocation of the project after one trainee has finished, and full support of audit department may increase the ratio of completion of audit cycles, thereby improving the patient care.

The system of state audits in the country is developing day by day. An advanced foreign experience has a positive impact on the development of domestic legal acts, and standards, as well as improving the activities of state audit bodies. However, the types of audits have not yet been fully studied. In addition to an external and internal audit, the state audit is divided depending on the object of the audit, and the time and nature of its conduct. From this point of view, a coordinated audit is of particular interest for domestic state audit bodies. Therefore, this article investigates the coordinated audit used at the world level in the practice of the Supreme Audit Institutions of many states in order to identify the best practices. The article clarifies its classification and definitions. The author's definition of the coordinated audit is proposed in the article. The article analyzes the experience of conducting a coordinated audit by the Accounts Committee with an assessment of the advantages and disadvantages of the types used by it. It is established that at present the committee uses only two types of coordinated audit, namely parallel and joint, and also performs them mainly by the type of efficiency audit or compliance audit. As a result, there is justified and suggested the necessity of introducing connected audits into the practice of domestic state audit bodies and the widespread use of the audit of financial statements along with the audit of efficiency and compliance audit.

This study investigates whether providing higher quality audits increases auditors' chances of avoiding legal liability. Negligence rules hold auditors responsible for plaintiff losses only when the quality of the audit provided fails to meet standards of care. The results of my experiment suggest that the ex post observed consequences of audit failure can affect the standards of care to which jurors hold auditors. Specifically, participants serving in the role of jurors assessed higher standards of care for auditors when the consequences of audit failure were more severe. Furthermore, when the consequences of audit failure were more severe, participants' evaluations of the auditor did not depend on the quality of the audit provided—auditors who provided higher quality audits were evaluated just as negatively as those who provided lower quality audits. In contrast, when audit failure led to only moderately negative consequences, auditors who provided higher quality audits received more favorable evaluations. These results suggest that providing higher quality audits will not necessarily protect auditors from legal liability when the consequences of audit failure are severe.

Badan Pemeriksa Keuangan (BPK), or The Audit Board of the Republic of Indonesia, has introduced performance audits intensively since public sector audit reforms were initiated in 2001. However, the implementation of performance audits still faces several obstacles. This study examines the development of the performance audit methodology in BPK, which can be divided into three stages: before the revitalization of BPK in 2006, the initial development of performance audits during 2006-2010, and the maturity of the implementation of performance audits since 2011. This study concludes that several key factors have affected the implementation of performance audits at BPK, including the development of audit guidelines, the dynamics of medium-term government planning, the focus of the BPK’s Management, and assistance provided by other supreme audit institutions (SAI). To address new realities and challenges in the future, more sophisticated performance audit methods need to be adopted by BPK, such as big data analytics, the adoption of governance audits, and employing public policy analysis. Without adopting such methods, the institutionalization of effective performance audits might not be achieved in the future.

Full textAbstract:
Organizations rely heavily on audits and compliance related activities to prove their competency, credibility, and firm performance. Sustainability audits encompass entire supply chains and are very complex due to, firstly, the global nature of supply chains and, secondly, the expansive scope of sustainability, which may include financial, manufacturing, social, and environmental audits. Adding to this dilemma is the absence of a consensus on standards related to sustainability, resulting in differences, variations, and multiple interpretations. While the frequency, complexity, and scope of audits has increased, unfortunately so has the incident of audit fraud, which has seen increasing media coverage in recent times, often implicating major multinationals and their supply chains. We posit that this trend of increasing audit activity is causing “audit fatigue”, which, in turn, may influence the audit outcome, i.e., either audit fraud or a clean audit. This study proposes that audit fatigue is a genuine issue faced by organizations and needs to be conceptualized.

The aim of the research is to assess the quality of the audits of Vietnamese commercial banks’ fi nancial statements in recent years. Two audit quality indicators are used in the assessment: fi rstly, the quality of the audit reports and the audited fi nancial statements; and secondly, the quality of the factors aff ecting audit quality. One of the factors aff ecting audit quality the characteristic of audit organizations such as the scale of the organizations, the level of knowledge in the fi eld of banking audit, Qualifi cations and experience of auditors, Independence of the auditor and the audit organization, Cost of the audit, Audit procedures, Audit quality control. Other factors are quality control of audit of fi nancial statement of commercial banks; communication between banking supervisors; legislative base (system of accounting standards, standards on auditing); and the eff ectiveness of the internal control system (ICS) of commercial banks. To study and assess the quality of the audits of commercial banks’ fi nancial statements, the authors conducted questionnaires, interviews on audit and study of audited accounting (fi nancial) statements. The result of the research indicates that the audits of Vietnamese commercial banks’ fi nancial statements have basically met the quality required by the current auditing standards. However, there are still some shortcomings in audit methodology and procedures, audit reports and audited fi nancial statements. The authors also suggest some measures to the audit fi rms and government bodies to improve the audit quality.

Local public institutions (local public corporations and institutions, etc.) have increased significantly by region due to the increase in demand for public goods and services in the local. Local public institutions are constantly required to improve transparent management and efficiency while simultaneously pursuing public and entrepreneurial qualities. Now, appropriate pre-audit function for efficient management of local public institutions is required. However, the reality is that the organization of the audit field or the self-audit function of the audit organization is insufficient depending on the size of the organization and budget. Most local public institutions have introduced their own audit system. However, the pre-audit function is very insufficient, and it is limited to ex post audits such as accounting and settlement audits, management supervision of local governments, and administrative affairs audits of local councils. In the case of local public institutions, the transparency and efficiency of project operation are limited due to the insufficient pre-audit function and positive function of audit by the audit function of the self-audit organization. In this study, we intend to introduce auditing techniques such as cooperative auditing through linkage with external organizations in order to improve self-audit functions when audit organizations or audit functions are insufficient in local public institutions. The current status of the audit system operation of local public institutions, especially in the Chungnam region, was reviewed, and the expected effect of a cooperative audit technique to activate the self-audit function was reviewed.

The methodology for determining audit time of quality management system takes into consideration the type of audit to be conducted and any type of locations of a client organization (e.g. permanent site or temporary site, that both may be physical or virtual site), remote auditing activities (off-site activities) and whether an organization operated a management system over multiple sites, various working shifts or outsourced part of its functions or processes for externally provision (outsourcing). This methodology also is considered by taking into account factors for it’s adjustments that need to be considered to increase or decrease audit time. An algorithm of calculation of labour-intensiveness of activities for quality management system evaluating has been developed. It’s considered an application of the algorithm on the example of an imaginary organization. The adoption of the methodology for determining audit time of quality management system for all types of audits will be useful for application to different interested parties, such as certification bodies or theirs clients or others.

This paper focuses on audits of public administrations performed by Supreme Audit Offices (SAO). The aim of the paper is to assess the performance of audit activities by the highest audit institutions in the Visegrad Four (V4) countries with a focus on the types of audits performed (compliance audits, performance audits, financial audits) in the period of 2005-2020. Pearson’s correlation coefficient and Spearman’s correlation coefficient were used to test the set hypotheses. The study focuses on the relationships between the number of audits performed (especially compliance audits and performance audits) and the volume of audit findings, recommendations and actions. Compliance audits predominate in the Slovak Republic and Hungary. However, the current trend is to gradually increase the share of performance audits. Most performance audits were carried out in the Czech Republic. The analysis found a statistically significant relationship between the number of performance audits performed and the number of auditors’ recommendations in Poland and Hungary. In addition there is a statistically significant relationship between the number of performance audits performed and the number of audit findings in Poland and the Czech Republic.

PurposeDespite the extensive research on the determinants of audit pricing in both public and private settings, there is a lack of research about the differences in audit fees between voluntary audits and mandatory audits. The purpose of this paper is to address this gap.Design/methodology/approachFirst, a theoretical framework is developed to justify differences in audit pricing between voluntary and mandatory audits. Next, using a sample of Spanish private small and medium enterprises (SMEs) running from 2009 to 2014, the authors empirically test whether the fees charged for voluntary audits differ from those charged for mandatory ones. The authors also examine whether the premium observed among large auditors is persistent in the SME setting, and whether this premium differs depending on whether the audits are voluntary or mandatory.FindingsAlthough a preliminary analysis does not report significant differences in pricing between voluntary and mandatory audits, additional analyses using samples restricted by company size show that voluntary audits are charged with a premium. The authors observe a premium related to large auditors, and find no significant differences in the audit pricing of Big 4 auditors depending on the mandatory/voluntary nature of the audit, but the premium associated with Middle-Tier auditors disappears in the voluntary setting.Originality/valueThis paper contributes to the previous literature by introducing the examination of differences in audit pricing between voluntary and mandatory audits. As far as the authors know, this is the first study to examine the differences in audit pricing between voluntary and mandatory audits. It also elaborates on studies on audit pricing in SMEs.

The study's main focus was on how tax audits affected tax compliance in the Banganga Municipality with particular goals in mind. Numerous statistical tools, including the mean, standard deviation, coefficient of variation, coefficient of correlation, and ANOVA test, were used to achieve these goals. There is a significant correlation between desk audit, field audit, back duty audit, registration audit, and tax compliance. It has been discovered that greater levels of desk audit, field audit, back duty audit, and registration audit performance enhance factors related to tax compliance. Factors have been investigated in this paper. Desk, field, back duty, and registration audits were among the independent variables; tax compliance was the dependent variable.

ABSTRACT The topic of audit firm rotation has been debated internationally for several decades. To inform the debate, we study the effects of audit firm rotation policies on audit quality in a government audit market. Using audit firm rotation data and audit quality measures from the Florida government audit market, a setting where procurement policies vary, we find that rotation policies are indirectly associated with higher audit quality. In particular, mediation analysis suggests that the consequences of policies that encourage Florida municipalities to consider rotation impact audit quality by encouraging the use of auditors that specialize in governmental audits, rather than auditor independence, which is frequently argued to support mandatory rotation.

SYNOPSIS: In recent years, auditors have reported on the effectiveness of internal control, usually as part of integrated audits. The audit risk model currently in auditing standards was designed for financial statement audits, not internal control audits—a key part of integrated audits. Because the audit of processes (internal control) is conceptually different from the audit of outputs (financial statements), the auditor needs a different risk model to provide a conceptual framework for internal control audits. The model I propose1 provides the auditor a method to determine the appropriate nature, timing, and extent of testing in an integrated audit. My model is focused on the risk of material weakness, rather than the risk of material misstatement. I also show how the auditor would use two different models in an integrated audit.

SUMMARY The number of days required to complete financial statement audits (i.e., audit delay) increased significantly with the implementation of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act (SOX, U.S. House of Representatives 2002). As firms' in-house experts on internal control, Internal Audit Functions (IAFs) can substantially affect financial reporting processes and, thus, audit delay. Internal auditors can help management maintain strong internal controls and assist external auditors with financial statement audits. Accordingly, we investigate whether IAF quality and the IAF's contribution to financial statement audits affect audit delay in a sample of 292 firm-year observations drawn from the pre-SOX 404 period. Using survey data from the Institute of Internal Auditors (IIA), we develop a comprehensive proxy for IAF quality; we measure different aspects of IAF quality (e.g., competence, objectivity, fieldwork rigor); and we measure the nature of the IAF's contribution to financial statement audits (independently performed work and direct assistance). Results indicate audit delay is decreasing in IAF quality, and this decrease is driven by IAF competence and fieldwork quality. Delay is four days shorter when IAFs contribute to external audits by independently performing relevant work. High-quality IAFs contribute to financial statement audits by independently performing relevant work, while low-quality IAFs provide direct assistance.
