The quantitative method is largely composed of two sectors, such as evaluation areas and items, scores calculation for evaluation items, and can generally apply the information system audit standard to information system audit evaluation.

  • These days, people distrust the accounting transparency of firms in Korea. It can .increase the capital costs and reduce profitability of firms. Auditors say that one of causes on the low grades of the accounting transparency is free contracts between auditors and firms. Firms want auditors take low audit fees. In principle, if auditors take low audit fees, they cannot input auditor resources to proper audit. However, there are not any empirical evidence about the relation between the audit fees dumping and the audit quality. This study defines dumping auditors if their audit fees are lower than the average of industries, and examines whether these auditors showed low audit qualities or not. As a result, firms which are audited by dumping auditors presented low abnormal accruals. We can interpret this result as that dumping auditors have low audit qualities. This result helps to make policies to improve the accounting transparency of firms.

  • The paper aims to investigate auditors, auditing firms and other external factors that affect quality of information technology audit in Vietnam. We conducted 2 types of data collections including direct and on survey. For direct survey, we sent directly to auditors at the training classes organized by State Securities Exchanges Commission. An online survey was established and Google doc link was provided to the Big4 and non-Big4 auditors. We received 138 survey responses in that 90 auditors came from Big4 and 48 auditors from non-Big4 firms. The data are analyzed using a factor analysis and compare means approaches to illustrate the potential IT audit quality factors and identify differences between two groups of auditors. The results show that independence and accounting knowledge and audit skills are the most important factors. And since external auditors perform many assurance services, the independence is critical. The result also shows that the auditors need to have enough competent and professional skills when conducting an audit, especially within an IT environment that requires high quality. The findings suggest a similar pattern of two groups in the context of Vietnam and some factors of auditors and auditing firms appear to have a statistically significant impact on quality of IT audit.

  • Traditionally, information systems audit has been carried out by the auditors. So the main focuses of audit are managerial point of view, such as finding errors or missing functions. The final purpose of audit, however, is to help the organization to make better decision through better information services. So we felt that managerial point of audit should be extended to include the factors that increase the competitiveness of organization. To accomplish this goal, new factors that reflect the ideas of three groups, users, developers in addition to auditors. First, by adopting the ideas from service quality evaluation area, we develop six items and 24 indexes for information systems audit. Second, we separate the audit related parties into three groups, users, developers and auditors. The main reason is that major concerns of three groups to the system will be different considerably. Third, we quantified the weights of each group to each 6 items and 24 indexes using Analytic Hierarchy Process. Fourth, the resulting weights of each item are found to be different by the group, and possible reasons are analyzed.
