Abstract

Audit quality is a fundamental aspect that determines the credibility of financial statements and public trust in the public accounting profession. Various factors are believed to influence audit quality, including auditor competence, auditor experience, and audit complexity, whose roles are presumed to be strengthened or weakened by auditor ethics. This study aims to analyze the effect of auditor competence, audit experience, and audit complexity on audit quality, and to examine the role of auditor ethics as a moderating variable in these relationships. This study employs a quantitative approach using primary data obtained through the distribution of questionnaires to auditors working at Public Accounting Firms in the Province of East Java. The sampling technique used non-probability sampling with a purposive sampling method, involving a total of 137 auditor respondents. Data analysis was conducted using Moderated Regression Analysis (MRA) with the assistance of IBM SPSS Statistics software. The results show that auditor competence and audit experience have a positive and significant effect on audit quality, while audit complexity has a negative and significant effect on audit quality. Furthermore, auditor ethics is proven to moderate the effect of audit experience and audit complexity on audit quality, but does not moderate the effect of auditor competence on audit quality. This study is expected to contribute to the development of audit quality, particularly in strengthening the competence, experience, and enforcement of professional ethics of auditors at Public Accounting Firms.

Abstract

This study aims to examine the effect of Return on Equity (ROE), Earnings per Share (EPS), Debt-to-Equity Ratio (DER), and Capital Intensity (CI) on the stock prices of Consumer Non-Cyclicals companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange. The study employs a quantitative approach using secondary data obtained from annual reports and financial statements for the 2021–2025 period. 285 observations were selected using purposive sampling, and the data were analyzed using panel data regression with the Fixed Effects Model and the Driscoll–Kraay estimator. The findings indicate that all four financial ratios significantly influence stock prices. Earnings per Share has a positive effect on stock prices, whereas Return on Equity, Debt-to-Equity Ratio, and Capital Intensity exhibit negative effects. These findings suggest that earnings performance plays an important role in determining stock prices, while leverage and capital investment remain important considerations in investors' evaluation of company performance.

Abstract

Study will examine how the State Audit Board (BPK) Representative Office of Central Sulawesi Province handles whistleblowing mechanisms, auditor competency, and internal controls for fraud prevention . Questionnaires were sent to forty auditors as part of the study's quantitative approach using survey techniques. In SPSS 25, the study population included all 102 auditors working in the office. The sampling technique used saturated sampling (total sampling), meaning all members of the population were targeted for questionnaire distribution. Multiple linear regression analysis was used to analyze the data. Although auditor competency and internal controls had a good but negligible partial impact on fraud prevention , the whistleblowing mechanism had a good and substantial influence. There was a significant impact on fraud prevention from the whistleblowing system , competent auditors, and internal controls simultaneously. To improve fraud prevention efforts, these findings indicate that an effective whistleblowing system must be implemented. However, for auditor competency and internal controls to work optimally, other factors such as organizational commitment, a culture of integrity, and a consistent monitoring system are also needed. It is hoped that this study can help the Central Sulawesi Province BPK in improving its fraud prevention approach and can also be a basis for further studies on the variables that influence this field.

This research contributes to enriching the study of provincial government financial reporting quality through an integrated analysis of audit opinions, financial report disclosure levels, and corruption cases

Abstract

This study examines the effects of reporting guidelines, audit assurance, political connections, and government ownership on the quality of CSR disclosures, while controlling for firm size as a moderating variable. The final sample comprised 35 energy companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange between 2021 and 2024, resulting in 140 firm-year observations. The data were analyzed using multiple regression and Moderated Regression Analysis (MRA). The results demonstrate that reporting guidelines, audit opinions, political connections, and government ownership each have a positive effect on CSR disclosure quality. Firm size, measured by the natural logarithm of total assets, does not moderate the relationship between reporting guidelines and disclosure quality, but it does strengthen the effects of audit assurance, political connections, and government ownership. These findings underscore the importance of governance mechanisms, firm characteristics, and ownership structures in improving CSR disclosure quality, with firm size selectively amplifying specific Influences.

Abstract

This study examines the influence of customer perceptions of the Deposit Insurance Corporation (LPS) on the interest in becoming a participant in the sharia insurance industry in Indonesia. The study employs a mixed-method approach to provide a comprehensive understanding of the relationship between LPS perception and interest in participating in sharia insurance. The qualitative stage involves in-depth interviews with practitioners in the sharia insurance industry to explore their perspectives regarding the role, credibility, and contribution of LPS in strengthening public confidence in the insurance sector. The quantitative stage uses Structural Equation Modelling (SEM) to analyze the relationship between customer perceptions of LPS and interest in becoming a participant in sharia insurance. The findings indicate that customer perceptions of LPS as an institution responsible for providing policyholder protection have a positive influence on the interest in becoming a participant in sharia insurance in Indonesia. The quantitative results show that LPS perception contributes 26.10% to the interest in participating in sharia insurance. This finding suggests that greater public confidence in the role and function of LPS may contribute to increased interest in sharia insurance participation. The study highlights the importance of strengthening public understanding of LPS, particularly regarding its role in providing protection and supporting confidence in the insurance industry. Improving communication and public education regarding LPS and sharia insurance may help enhance consumer awareness and participation. The findings provide relevant insights for policymakers, LPS, and sharia insurance providers in developing strategies to strengthen public trust and support the sustainable growth of the sharia insurance market in Indonesia.
