Abstract

This study aims to analyze the correlation between level of local government compliance with laws/regulations and audit opinions on Local Government Financial Statements (LGFS) and to identify causes of failure in detecting non-compliance, including non-compliance that contains elements of fraud, in LGFS audit. The method used is explanatory sequential mixed methods with a content analysis approach on fifty four LGFS samples and interview the auditors of the Audit Board of Republic of Indonesia (the AB). The results show that there is a correlation between level of compliance of local government and audit opinion on LGFS, but there are risk in detecting non-compliance and risk of errors in audit opinion caused by different concepts in determining fraud, unclear guidelines on compliance testing, different concept of materiality among the AB auditors, failure to update programs audit, potential threats/dangers experienced by auditors, and failure to reduce auditors’ negative perception on working protection. The limitation of this study is that participants only involve auditors from three representative offices originating from Java and do not conduct confirmation to the unit responsible for the preparation of audit guidelines and units that deal with legal issues. This research implied that the AB must increase effectiveness of audit quality assurance to improve audit quality and the AB auditors should be able to apply the principle of due professional care in carrying out LGFS audit so that audit quality is maintained.

Abstract

This study aims to develop a method for measuring the public prosperity gap between the ideal condition, as stated in the constitution, and the current condition of a local government, utilizing the Purchasing Power Parity (PPP) Theory and the concept of service-level solvency. This study uses the City of Melbourne as a representation of ideal conditions and the City of Jakarta as a representation of current conditions. The model developed in this study can accurately measure the prosperity gap that occurs and assess its severity. The limitation of this study is the use of the service solvency in general terms to measure the prosperity of the community. The use of specific solvency should improve the accuracy of the prosperity gap analysis. However, these limitations do not reduce the validity of the model.

Abstract

According to regulation Act No. 15/2004, adequate disclosure is one of the main criteria for the auditors in giving opinion for local government financial statements (LGFS). All accounts composing LGFS must be disclosed adequately. One of the most important accounts is inventory account in the balance sheet. This research aims to analyze whether the level of disclosure of inventory account is in accordance with the requirements of Government Accounting Standards Number 5 (GAS No. 5) on Inventory. This research uses descriptive qualitative approach. Documentation technique was utilized to collect 113 local government financial statements of regencies/cities in Java for fiscal year 2014. To analyze the data, this study employs percentage descriptive techniques. It was found that disclosure level of inventories account on local government financial statements in Java was still low and not in accordance with GAS No 5. Furthermore, there was no difference in the level of inventory disclosure among LGFS with unqualified opinion, qualified opinion, and disclaimer opinion. The average disclosure level of inventories for LGFS in Java amounted to 40,35%, with the highest disclosure level was 80,00% belonged to only two LGFS.

Abstract

Previous studies on the implementation of audit recommendations have primarily focused on identifying influencing factors without delving into the specific behaviors of individuals responsible for their implementation. This study aims to analyze auditees' intentions to implement audit recommendations using Ajzen's Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB). While TPB is typically applied with quantitative methods, this research employs a qualitative approach to gain a deeper understanding of respondents' attitudes, motivations, and values. The findings reveal five main themes that influence auditees' intentions to implement audit recommendations: lack of engagement, unorganized organizational pathways, the role of decision-makers or policymakers, mutual reluctance toward coordination, and gaps in knowledge and qualifications. Addressing these themes simultaneously is essential for the effective implementation of audit recommendations. Auditees' attitudes toward implementing audit recommendations significantly impact their intentions. However, subjective norms and perceived behavioral control can pose barriers, diminishing their commitment to the implementation process. This nuanced understanding of the factors affecting auditee behavior is crucial for developing strategies to enhance compliance with audit recommendations.
