Previous studies revealed that there were inconsistent drivers influencing the going-concern audit opinion. This study shows similar results to prior works. The result indicates that firms’ financial condition and profitability significantly affect the likelihood of the going-concern audit opinion, while firms’ size and leverage are not the determinants of the intensity of the going concern audit opinion.

In this paper, I investigate the relationship between previous going-concern audit opinions and subsequent asymmetric timeliness in accounting. Using the time-series and price-based models and conservatism proxy, I find that firms with going-concern audit opinions subsequently report losses in a more timely manner than firms that did not receive going-concern audit opinions. Furthermore, I also find that firms exiting going-concern audit opinions are more likely to report losses rather than gains in a timely manner, compared to firms non-exiting from going-concern opinions. This study extends the prior research by exploring the association between going-concern opinions and accounting conservatism from the perspective of client firms—that is, how firms behave strategically and conservatively to bypass going-concern opinions, once the firms had received previous going-concern opinions.

Auditors are required to provide services in auditing financial statements presented by management and provide audit opinions on the fairness of the presentation of financial statements. Sometimes, in reality, management and auditors have their interests so that each party can achieve the goals. The conflict of interest appears on the independence of the auditor in issuing audit opinions, especially the audit opinion with the going concern explanatory paragraph. The audit committee, as a supervisory board, will continue to maintain the independence of the auditor in issuing audit opinions with the going concern explanatory paragraph. This study aims to examine the effectiveness of the audit committee in maintaining the independence of external auditors issuing audit opinions, especially the audit opinion with the going concern explanatory paragraph. Based on the purposive sampling method obtained a sample of 168 companies. Testing the hypothesis in this study using logistic regression and moderated regression analysis. The results showed that financial distress had a significant negative effect for the audit opinion with going concern explanatory paragraph. Furthermore, the audit committee was not able to strenghten the relationship of financial distress on the audit opinion with a going-concern explanatory paragraph.

Audit reports are used by auditors to inform the accuracy of the information in the financial statements. The auditor as an independent party has the competence to provide an opinion on the client's financial condition. If it is estimated that the company cannot continue its activities, it is likely that it will get a going concern audit opinion. Audit opinion can help investors and other stakeholders in assessing the status of the company's business continuity. The important thing from a going concern audit opinion is to provide additional information for investors in making investment decisions. This study analyzes the factors that determine going concern audit opinion on manufacturing companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange. The factors tested in this study are leverage, initial opinion, company growth and company size. The study used a sample of 125 companies for the 2014-2018 period. The results of data analysis were obtained from logistic regression tests. The empirical results show that prior opinion and leverage increase the likelihood of receiving a going concern opinion. Meanwhile, company growth and company size have no effect on going concern audit opinion. Nagelkerke's R Square test shows the ability of the factors in this study to explain 63.1% of going-concern audit opinion, while 36.9% is explained by other factors outside the research model. The findings from this study are expected to help investors and other stakeholders to prevent losses if they invest in companies that have the potential to go bankrupt.
