The Indonesian government encourages the manufacturing sector to diversify its business. The operating segments disclosures will be more important. Meanwhile, the provisions regarding this disclosure are still voluntary. There are several studies in Indonesia. However, the proxies used do not reflect the quality of the operating segment disclosures comprehensively. Therefore, this study aims to get empirical evidence on the determinants of the quality of operating segment disclosure by using Reporting Quality Index. The population was manufacturing companies listed on the IDX for 2015 - 2018. The data analysis technique uses multiple linear regression. The results show that firm size, leverage, degree of internationalization, and audit quality have a positive effect, while industry competition, profitability, and company growth have no effect on the quality of disclosure in the operating segment. This implies that external pressures have higher impact.

Firm size is measured using Total Assets, Leverage and Financial Targets. The data used in this research are secondary sourced from the financial statements of manufacturing companies listed in the Indonesia Stock Exchange during 2012-2014. Using purposive sampling, there will be taken some samples to use. Data analysis method used is multiple linear regression tests using SPSS version 20. The samples selected based on purposive sampling method with population of 134 companies and a sample of 21 companies.

In November 2006 the International Accounting Standards Board issued IFRS 8, which replaced IAS 14-Revised and became effective for the fiscal year beginning on or after 2009. IFRS 8 changed the items of information that companies have to disclose for each segment. The aim of the research is to examine the determinants of segment disclosures provided by Italian companies in both 2008 and 2009 using the framework of the proprietary costs theory. Moreover, the research investigates whether the implementation of IFRS 8 has brought companies operating in less competitive industries to adopt some opportunistic behaviors, reducing the level of segment disclosure provided in 2009, compared to that disclosed the previous year under IAS 14-R. The results show that higher levels of industry competition are associated with higher levels of segment disclosure. Moreover, we find that firms operating in less competitive industries decreased the items of information provided for each segment under IFRS 8, compared to those released the previous year.

The paper examined the influence of boards attributes and audit firm choice of Nigerian listed non-financial firms. In an attempt to achieve the objective of this study, data of 21 sampled manufacturing companies were obtained from 2012 to 2017 using purposive sampling technique. Data for the sampled companies were analysed using logit regression analysis.  The result of the study provides evidence for significant influence of board independence, gender diversity and board meetings on audit firm choice while it board size was found to exert positive but no significant effect on audit firm choice. Arising from this, the study recommends that the non-executive directors should be dominated by directors with adequate level of financial directors that will propel them towards appreciating audit quality while choosing audit firm so as to improve quality of audit work. Also, firm should also seek to know whether audit quality of big 4 audit firms always supersedes that of their non-big 4 counterparts.

Abstract A long standing question is whether product market competition disciplines a firm’s incentive to engage in earnings management. This paper argues that this question cannot be investigated adequately without accounting for the quality of firms’ auditors, because auditors affect the probability of discovering earnings management. Since firms choose their auditor, a non-compliant firm can alter its own probability of being detected. Consequently, a firm’s decision to manage earnings is a function of its auditor’s quality, which is itself endogenously chosen by the firm. To study this issue we develop a game-theoretic model that captures the potential inter-relationship between industry competition, the firms’ choice of audit quality, and compliance with accounting regulations (or the degree of earnings manipulation). We show that the link between financial compliance and product market competition is affected by the endogenously chosen audit quality. We estimate this model’s structural parameters and find that greater competition reduces both compliance and the demand for high quality audits.

The population in this study are manufacturing companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange for the 2014-2018 period. The number of samples used was 104 companies using purposive sampling technique. This study uses secondary data with database collection techniques. The data analysis technique used panel data regression analysis. The results of the study found that company size, efficiency, liquidity and leverage have a positive and significant effect on company profitability, while working capital has a negative and insignificant effect on company profitability. Future research is expected to use samples other than the manufacturing sector and different measurements for the profitability variable in order to see the comparison of research results.

Several highly publicized financial reporting fraud cases (e.g., Enron, Tyco International, and WorldCom) have put the role of external auditors and quality of their audit in ensuring corporate financial reporting quality under considerable scrutiny. Much research has been conducted on the determinants of earnings management. Since earnings management is inherently unobservable, most studies use various measures of accruals as proxies for earnings management. This study examines the relationship between audit quality and a more direct measure of earnings management – financial reporting fraud. Contrary to the concerns that nonaudit services are the primary reason for auditor independence impairment that results in lower audit and earnings quality, this study finds no significant relationship between reporting fraud and fees paid to auditors for various services.

Abstract: This research will explain and show the effect of workload, auditor specialization, auditor rotation, audit committee as an independent variable on audit quality which is the dependent variable in manufacturing companies listed on the Bursa Efek Indonesia from 2015 to 2019. This research is important to do because the slow growth of competent public accountants is an important matter that must be considered, given the growing growth of investment activities which has an impact on the increasing need for public accounting services. Seeing from various phenomena of audit failure due to not being an independent auditor and seeing from the point of view of failures based on violations of the code of ethics in the form of inadequate evidence collection so that it is related to the level of workload experienced requires further study. The results of the research and testing of the hypothesis conducted show that the first hypothesis is accepted where there is a significant negative effect between the workload and the quality of the audit results. The second hypothesis is accepted where there is a significant positive effect of auditor specialization on audit quality. The third hypothesis is rejected where there is no significant effect of audit rotation on the audit results. The fourth hypothesis is rejected, where there is no influence from the audit committee on the quality of the audit results.
