Abstract

This research uses questionnaire to collect the data. Meanwhile, the population in this research are all independent auditors working for Public Accountant Offices in Malang, Indonesia. Amounting to a total of 50 auditors are used as the sample in this research. The sample in this this research is taken using purposive sampling. The result indicates that time pressure has a positive influence on premature sign-off of audit procedure. This means the greater the time pressure the auditors are having, the more likely the auditors to be involved in premature sign-off of audit procedure practice, and vice versa. The second finding is that professional commitment weakens the influence of time pressure on premature sign-off of audit procedure.
