SUMMARY Businesses increasingly outsource organizational functions that have financial reporting implications, which requires auditors to adjust their risk assessment and audit procedures for this practice. However, PCAOB inspection reports cite deficiencies indicating that external auditors frequently do not perform proper procedures before relying on controls maintained by service organizations. In this paper, we examine the audit implications of clients' use of service organizations. Using the audit risk and control risk models and drawing on the extant research on using the work of others and internal audit outsourcing, we develop a framework that describes how clients' use of service organizations affects financial statement and internal control audits. We propose that three characteristics of outsourcing: the client, the service organization, and the auditor of the service organization affect inherent risk, control risk, and control detection risk for clients who outsource these functions. Based on this model, we develop specific research questions to guide future auditing research. We also use this model to provide insights for future research on external auditors' reliance on outsourced internal audit functions. JEL Classifications: M41; M42; L24.

The article discusses the process of designing office work in the field of accounting for goods and equipment of objects of hotel and restaurant facilities. It is noted that it is one of the elements in the safety of tourism activities and a necessary component of the competitiveness of any enterprise operating in market conditions. It is noted that inadequate information on all possible directions of movement of purchased and manufactured goods leads to ineffective management decisions and deterioration of the enterprise. Therefore, there is a need for effective design of the accounting of goods and equipment in their information support. This will ensure the consistency and relationship of indicators of accounting registers; will provide information of the required level of detail and generalization, to meet the needs of management. The complexity of the construction of the accounting process for the objects of the hotel and restaurant economy is highlighted for the purpose of effective accounting and successful management of stocks of goods. To improve organizational support and design an effective system for documenting the accounting of goods and equipment of objects, an analysis of the directions of movement of goods and business transactions that arise in their process was carried out; the composition of accounting and control objects was clarified. In the hotel and restaurant industry, there are three main groups of business transactions related to the movement of goods: the receipt of placement and disposal of goods. In general, the organization of accounting for goods at the enterprise also includes three main stages: methodological, technical and organizational. At the same time, at all stages it is important to have timely primary accounting and a clear procedure for organizing the compilation and processing of primary documents, which is called the schedule of documents. There is a need to reflect the system of record keeping of goods in the Order on the accounting policy of the enterprise and its design given the rationality of accounting and the effectiveness of internal control to meet the information needs of owners at all stages of movement of goods.

We investigate the chief audit executive’s (CAE) internal audit supervisory role by examining the change in internal audit monitoring effectiveness following the turnover of CAEs. Using a sample of firms listed on the small and medium enterprise board of China’s stock exchange, we find that CAE turnover is accompanied by a reduction in financial reporting/internal control quality and that the reduction is more pronounced for firms whose successor CAEs have lower financial expertise than their predecessors. Further analysis shows that the negative association with financial reporting/internal control quality is stronger when the turnover is for personal reasons than when it is for internal transfer of the CAE. These findings are robust to a battery of sensitivity checks, including placebo tests and matching diagnostics. Our results highlight the importance of the CAE for a firm’s internal audit functions.
