There are 4 variables in this study: professional skepticism, task complexity, and understanding of ethical codes as independent variables, and financial statement fraud as the dependent variable. The population in this study consists of accountants working in public accounting firms. The sample was selected using purposive sampling method based on several criteria supporting the research. The results of this study indicate that Professional Skepticism has a positive impact on Financial Statement Fraud, Task Complexity has a negative impact on Financial Statement Fraud, and Understanding of the Code of Ethics has a positive impact on Financial Statement Fraud.
