Abstract

Purpose: This study analyzes the impact of audit fee reductions on audit quality and stakeholder trust, exploring the broader implications of constrained resources and their effects on corporate governance, financial reporting reliability, and stakeholder perceptions. Research Design and Methodology: Employing a qualitative approach through a systematic literature review (SLR), this study synthesizes findings from recent academic research across diverse contexts. Theoretical frameworks, particularly agency theory, are integrated to comprehensively understand the relationship between audit fees, audit quality, and stakeholder trust. Findings and Discussion: The findings reveal that reduced audit fees significantly impact the allocation of resources such as time, professional expertise, and technology, leading to diminished audit quality. This compromises the auditors' ability to detect material misstatements and affects their independence and professional skepticism. Lower audit quality, in turn, erodes stakeholder trust in financial statements, creating long-term reputational risks and market instability. Contextual factors, including regulatory frameworks and cultural dimensions, are identified as moderators that influence these dynamics. The study highlights the need for adequate audit fees to maintain transparency, accountability, and trust in financial reporting. Implications: This research contributes to the academic discourse by extending agency theory to include the financial and ethical challenges auditors face under cost constraints. Practically, it provides actionable insights for regulators, audit firms, and stakeholders, emphasizing the importance of balancing cost efficiency with audit quality. Recommendations include setting minimum audit fee standards, adopting advanced technologies, and enhancing auditor training to sustain trust and accountability in financial reporting systems.

Abstract

Purpose: This study explores the legal risks auditors face, focusing on the interplay between stakeholder expectations, evolving regulatory frameworks, and behavioral implications. It examines how these factors influence auditor liability, independence, and professional decision-making, offering insights into mitigating legal risks and improving audit quality. Research Design and Methodology: Using a qualitative approach, this study employs a systematic literature review (SLR) to analyze prior research on auditor liability, stakeholder expectations, and regulatory dynamics. The study synthesizes findings from academic journals, regulatory reports, and professional standards to develop a multidimensional framework for understanding auditor legal risks. Findings and Discussion: The findings reveal that misaligned stakeholder expectations significantly increase litigation risks for auditors, as many stakeholders view audit opinions as guarantees rather than reasonable assurance. Regulatory frameworks, such as the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and International Standards on Auditing, amplify auditors’ legal exposure due to varying compliance demands across jurisdictions. Additionally, behavioral implications, including increased auditor conservatism, are key consequences of litigation fears, which may compromise audit quality. This study also highlights the role of audit committees and professional training in mitigating these risks. Implications: The research provides practical and managerial insights, emphasizing the need for enhanced training programs to address stakeholder expectations and litigation risks. It advocates for stronger independent oversight through audit committees and refining audit standards to clarify the scope of audit opinions. These findings offer valuable contributions to academia and practice, supporting efforts to reduce legal risks while maintaining audit integrity.

Abstract

Purpose: This study aims to examine the application of green accounting in waste management at PT. ABCDE, focusing on five stages of environmental cost allocation: identification, recognition, measurement, presentation, and disclosure. Research Method: This research used a descriptive qualitative approach. Data were collected through interviews, observation, and documentation at PT. ABCDE is a company that manages liquid waste from production processes. Data were analyzed using the Miles and Huberman model, consisting of data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing. Results and Discussion: The findings show that PT. ABCDE has applied green accounting in the stages of recognition, measurement, and disclosure. Environmental costs are recognized on an accrual basis, measured using historical cost, and disclosed in the notes to the financial statements. However, the identification and presentation stages are not fully aligned with applicable accounting standards because environmental costs are still combined with general administrative expenses. This indicates that the company’s environmental cost reporting requires further improvement. Implications: The study suggests that PT. ABCDE should separate environmental costs from general expenses and present them more transparently in financial reports. Originality: This study provides specific insight into the implementation of green accounting based on five environmental cost allocation stages in liquid waste management.

Abstract

Purpose: This study aimed to examine the adoption of big data analytics (BDA) in public sector auditing in Indonesia, based on empirical data collected in 2022. The growing use of digital technologies in audit processes is expected to improve effectiveness and efficiency; however, their implementation also demands considerable financial and organizational resources. Thus, it is important to explore both the benefits and challenges of BDA adoption in the public sector context. Research Method: Data were collected through in-depth semi-structured interviews with eight auditors from IT and non-IT backgrounds. A qualitative approach was used to analyze the data, supported by a big data governance framework. Results and Discussion: The findings indicate that BDA adoption in Indonesian public-sector auditing remains at an early stage. Although BDA offers opportunities such as improved red-flag detection, full-population analysis, and enhanced audit effectiveness and efficiency, several challenges remain, including platform stability, data accessibility, and human resource readiness. Implications: This study provides empirical evidence on the processes, opportunities, and challenges of BDA utilization from the perspective of public-sector auditors. Future studies should examine further developments in BDA use in Indonesian public institutions and offer new perspectives through different participants or methods. BPK is expected to prioritize human resource readiness and platform development. Originality: This study contributes to the limited empirical research on BDA utilization in public sector auditing by presenting insights from auditors’ perspectives.

Abstract

Purpose: This study aims to examine the effect of audit quality and audit committee on financial reporting quality in hotel sector companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) during 2019–2023. Based on agency, signaling, and corporate governance theories, this study proposes that higher audit quality and more effective audit committees positively influence the quality of financial reporting. Research Method: This study employed a quantitative approach with descriptive and verificative methods. Secondary data were obtained from audited financial statements and annual reports of 31 hospitality subsector companies listed on the IDX from 2019 to 2023, yielding 155 observations. Audit quality was measured by KAP Big Four reputation, audit opinion, auditor switching, and audit fee disclosure. The audit committee was measured by size, independence, and financial expertise. Financial reporting quality was proxied by absolute discretionary accruals, as measured by the Modified Jones Model. Data were analyzed using multiple linear regression with SPSS version 29. Results and Discussion: The findings show that audit quality partially has a significant positive effect on financial reporting quality, particularly through KAP Big Four reputation and audit opinion. Audit committee characteristics do not individually show significant effects, indicating symbolic compliance rather than substantive oversight. Simultaneously, audit quality and the audit committee significantly affect financial reporting quality. Implications: The findings suggest that companies should strengthen audit committee effectiveness beyond formal structure, while regulators should enhance oversight of audit committee performance. Originality: This study provides empirical evidence from the Indonesian hospitality sector by highlighting the dominance of external audit credibility over internal governance mechanisms in improving financial reporting quality.
