Factors Influencing

The study examines the factors influencing auditor independence among listed companies in Nigeria. A sample of 65 firms out of the 194 listed on the Nigerian Stock Exchange (NSE) were purposively selected for analysis, these comprise 14 money deposit banks (financial), 1 mortgage bank and 50 non-financial firms. Secondary data were employed for the study and were sourced from the audited financial reports of sampled companies and fact book of the Nigerian Stock Exchange between the periods of 2006 and 2013. Data were analysed using descriptive statistics and Generalised Method of Moments (GMM). Preliminary tests were carried out such as Sargan test, Arellano-Bond Serial Correlation Test among others. The study revealed that Big4, audit tenure, profitability, leverage and inventory with account receivable had negative significant impact, which can impair auditor independence, while size of the firms and loss had positive influence on auditor independence in Nigeria. Also, the square root of the number of subsidiaries was positively related to auditor independence, but not significant and the total number of subsidiaries had positive influence on auditor independence but not significant. These results implied that the two variables can increase the complexity of the audit and, consequently, a rise in audit fees expect in their presence. This will in turn reduce auditor independence. The study therefore recommended that joint audit be adopted and audited tenure be reviewed. The findings of the study would enable management, regulators, investors and other stock market participants to play their unique and important roles in enhancing auditor independence in Nigeria.

The Government

<strong>English</strong><br />The government commits to achieve food sovereignty and self-sufficiency, especially those of rice, corn, and soybean (Pajale) in 2017, 2018, and 2019, respectively. One of the problems is low speed of technological innovation adoption at farm level because of extension workers and farmer group’s communication is not dynamic. This study aims to analyze factors influencing technological innovation adoption of the Rice, Corn and Soybean Special Effort (Upsus Pajale) activities and roles of farmer group communication on technology adoption in Upsus Pajale activities. The research was conducted in Malang Regency, East Java Province. Primary data were collected using questionnaires from 90 respondents. Qualitative data were collected through in-depth interviews with key informants and direct observation. Primary data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and a logistic regression model. The results showed that factors influencing technological innovation adoption in Upsus Pajale activities in Malang Regency were farmers’age, nonformal education, land holding size, mass media, farmers’ assistants, and the farmer group communication. Factors influencing the roles of farmer group communication were farmers’age, the size of controlled arable land, cosmopolity level, non-formal education, mass media, and farmers’ companion.<br /><br /><br /><strong>Indonesian</strong><br />Pemerintah saat ini telah berkomitmen untuk mewujudkan kedaulatan pangan serta swasembada pangan, terutama komoditas padi, jagung, dan kedelai (Pajale) yang ditargetkan terwujud berturut-turut pada tahun 2017, 2018, dan 2019. Salah satu permasalahannya adalah kecepatan adopsi inovasi teknologi di tingkat petani masih rendah karena peran komunikasi penyuluh dan kelompok tani masih belum dinamis. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis faktor-faktor yang berpengaruh terhadap adopsi inovasi teknologi pada kegiatan upaya khusus (Upsus) Pajale dan menganalisis faktor-faktor yang berpengaruh terhadap peran komunikasi kelompok tani terhadap adopsi inovasi teknologi dalam kegiatan Upsus Pajale. Lokasi penelitian dipilih secara sengaja di Kabupaten Malang, Provinsi Jawa Timur. Data diperoleh melalui wawancara menggunakan kuesioner dengan responden sebanyak 90 orang dan didukung oleh data kualitatif melalui wawancara mendalam terhadap beberapa informan kunci dan observasi langsung. Data dianalisis menggunakan statistik deskriptif dan inferensia regresi model logistik. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa faktor-faktor yang memengaruhi adopsi inovasi teknologi pada kegiatan Upsus Pajale di Kabupaten Malang adalah umur petani, pendidikan nonformal, luas lahan yang dikuasai, peran media informasi, peran pendamping, dan peran komunikasi kelompok tani. Faktor-faktor yang memengaruhi peran komunikasi kelompok tani adalah umur petani, luas lahan yang dikuasai, tingkat kekosmopolitan, pendidikan nonformal, peran media informasi, dan peran pendamping petani.

This chapter aims to determine the factors influencing the decision of implementing an ERP system in a country where technology awareness and the technological development are not as high as those of some others. Firstly, the authors assume that adopters make rational choices but the authors also introduce an alternative innovation model based on the imitation perspective. A questionnaire was sent to the Spanish listed companies and the ERP; adopting firms were compared with a matched control group. The main results indicate that the only factors stemming from the rational-choice perspective, whose influence is relevant, are firm size and the ROI ratio. Also, the authors found that the introduction of the euro and the Y2K issue had an influence in the ERP decision. The influence of the sectoral adscription was supported partially. These findings evidence a certain influence of the imitation effect. The results of this chapter could eventually be extrapolated to the countries whose national culture is similar to that of Spain.
