Purpose: The purpose of this study is to investigate whether the Management Discussion and Analysis (MD&A) has an impact on auditors' audit efforts. MD&A is a means of disclosure that provides information about a company from the management's perspective in financial reporting. The MD&A is a standardized format of nonfinancial information that can be useful for the stake-holders. The auditors have incentives to utilize the nonfinancial information contained in the MD&A for their decision-making. We posit that the MD&A disclosure quality is associated with the level of audit efforts. Methods: We hand-collect the disclosure data from the Financial Supervisory Service of Korea (the Korean SEC). Results: By employing two measures of audit efforts, we document evidence that the quality of MD&A is associated with both audit hours and audit fees. Conclusion: It implies that the auditors perform intensive audit work for companies with high-quality disclosure of MD&A. The study contributes to the literature by providing the first approach to examine the association between the MD&A disclosure and audit efforts.

The purpose of this study is to test both the alignment theory and entertainment theory on family firms listed on the Pakistan Stock Exchange. To achieve these goals, we collected secondary data from 164 non-financial family firms in various sectors during 2014-18. These family firms are classified into two categories: family control firms and family owned firms. We take the audit fee and the audit quality as dependent variables while family control firms, family-owned firms, and family CEOs as independent variables. In addition, the study uses leverage, profit and export as control variables. To test the effect of the explanatory variables on the output variables, we use two econometric models, Ordinary Least Square and the Probit regression model. In addition, Huber Sandwich test is used to check the non-normality and heteroscedasticity of panel data. Contrary to the alignment effect, the study supports the entrenchment effect and advocates that family-controlled firms as well as family-owned firms are not conscientious regarding the selection of external auditors during their contracts with audit firms. They are less likely to pay high audit fees for good quality audit in Pakistan. Furthermore, the study shows a statistically significant and positive relationship between audit quality and audit fees.

Research Design data and Methodology: This quantitative research uses a comparative causal approach. The research population consists of manufacturing companies in the basic and chemical industry sector listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange in 2016-2022. Samples were obtained as many as 112 using purposive sampling method. The analysis technique to test the hypothesis uses multiple linear regression tests and moderation tests with an absolute difference approach. Results: The results showed that the audit committee and board of commissioners provide a significant positive distribution on earnings quality, while institutional ownership provides a significant negative distribution on earnings quality. Earnings growth strengthens the distribution of the audit committee and independent board of commissioners on earnings quality. However, earnings growth does not strengthen the distribution of institutional ownership on earnings quality. Conclusions: Audit oversight from audit committee and management performance oversight from the independent board of commissioners improves the credibility of earnings quality. Management oversight from institutional ownership reduces earnings quality. The interaction of earnings growth with maximum supervision can improve earnings quality, except for supervision from institutional ownership.
