Hur pratar du med din klient? : En studie om interaktionsval mellan revisorn och klienten / How do you approach your client? : A study of how the auditor interacts with their clientJohansson, Emil, Landén, Hanna January 2021 (has links)
Examensarbete, Civilekonomprogrammet, Ekonomihögskolan vid Linnéuniversitetet, VT 2021 Författare: Emil Johansson och Hanna Landén Handledare: Sven-Olof Yrjö Collin Examinator: Andreas Jansson Titel: Hur pratar du med din klient? - En studie om hur revisorn interagerar med sin klient Bakgrund: Coronapandemins inträde i samhället har inneburit att människor förväntas dra ner på sina fysiska kontakter med andra människor. Eftersom revisionsbranschen å ena sidan kommit långt i digitaliseringen är det möjligt att den inte påverkas i större utsträckning, men å andra sidan är fysiska kontakter viktiga för att upprätthålla en god relation med klienten. Hur interaktionen sker kan påverka relationen som i sin tur kan påverka revisionskvalitén. Studien undersöker därför dessa interaktioner genom att studera val av interaktionsteknik mellan revisor och klient. Syfte: Uppsatsens syfte är att kartlägga och förklara hur revisorn interagerar med klienten i revisionens olika delar. Metod: Utifrån en teoretisk referensram sammanställs och kategoriseras de interaktionstekniker som används mellan revisor och klient i en typologi. Vidare genomförs en flermetodsforskning som inleds med en kvalitativ förstudie där dennatypologi prövas och som induktivt fångar sådant tidigare studier inte utforskat. Den teoretiska referensramen och förstudien ligger sedan till grund för den kvantitativa huvudstudiens utformning som har för avsikt att beskriva användandet av interaktionsteknikerna i revisionens olika delar. Slutsats: Studien kartlägger och förklarar varför en interaktionsteknik väljs i respektive del av revisionen genom att i en typologi och empirisk studie beskriva interaktionsteknikerna. Studien finner tre faktorer som påverkar valet av teknik; grad av digitalisering, teknikens tidsåtgång samt hur avancerad tekniken är. Studien påvisar även substitutionseffekter mellan några av interaktionsteknikerna. Denna kartläggning av interaktionstekniker möjliggör också framtida forskning på ämnet. Nyckelord: Interaktionsteknik, Revision, Relation, Klient, Kommunikation, Revisionsprocess, Pandemi / Master Thesis in Business Administration, School of Business and Economics at Linnaeus University, VT 2021 Authors: Emil Johansson and Hanna Landén Supervisor: Sven-Olof Yrjö Collin Examiner: Andreas Jansson Title: How do you approach your client? - A study of how the auditor interacts with their client Background: The coronavirus pandemic’s entry into society has meant that people are expected to reduce their physical contacts with other people. As the auditing industry has come a long way in digitalization, it is possible that it is not affected to a greater extent. But on the other hand, physical contacts are important for maintaining a good relationship with the client. How the interaction takes place can affect the relationship, which in turn can affect the audit quality. The study therefore examines these interactions by studying the choice of interaction technique between auditor and client. Purpose: The aim of the study is to map and explain how the auditor interacts with the client in the various parts of the audit. Method: Based on a theoretical framework, the interaction techniques used between auditor and client are compiled and categorized in a typology. Furthermore, a multi-method research is carried out which begins with a qualitative pilot study where the typology is tested. The pilot study also inductively captures what previous studies have not explored. The theoretical framework and the pilot study then form the basis for the design of the quantitative main study, which intends to explain the choice of interaction technique in the various parts of the audit. Conclusion: The study maps and explains why an interaction technique is chosen in each part of the audit in a typology and empirical study by describing the interaction techniques. The study finds three factors that influence the choice of technique; level of digitalization, the time required and how advanced the technique is. The study also discovers substitution effects between some of the interaction techniques. This mapping of interaction techniques also enables further research on the subject.

Auditing Complex Fair Value Measurements : The Battle of InterpretationsOtterskog, Emil, Wanning, Ted January 2020 (has links)
Fair Value Accounting is becoming increasingly more prominent, and auditing such measurements is at times difficult as a great deal of estimates and judgments are involved. This makes auditors jobs more challenging. Research has found that there is a need for understanding how auditing standards affect the audit process. Furthermore, some studies have shown that there is a gap between auditors and inspectors view of what constitutes sufficient and appropriate audit evidence regarding fair value measurements, the “FVM gap”. The aim of this study is to provide new insight on how auditing standards and inspectors affect the judgment of auditors in regards to fair value measurements. This study contributes to audit standard setters by illuminating how current auditing standards affect auditor judgment when auditing fair value measurements. It also contributes knowledge on how inspections affect judgment in the auditing process. Finally, it provides insight to practitioners on how box-checking and similar tools affect auditor judgment. We performed semi-structured interviews with respondents who have considerable experience of fair value measurements. The empirical data was thematically analysed and related to theories on judgment and decision-making as well as structure versus judgment research. A number of interesting findings were made; auditing standards seem to be well adjusted to auditors’ needs, documentation is one of the major issues when dealing with fair value measurements and the toughness of inspections between countries seem to differ. Some potential topics for future research were identified: whether or not a gap of interpretations exists between auditors and the lawyers of inspecting entities, and what effects such a gap could have; if the documentation of both audit clients and auditors needs to be improved upon. More potential areas for future research can be found in the Conclusion.

Improving energy performance within the framework of the Energy Efficiency DirectiveÅkerblom, Signe January 2015 (has links)
It is necessary for large companies to understand and be able to adapt to the industrial transformation towards an increasing focus on energy efficiency, which takes place today. The Energy Efficiency Directive (EED)issued by the European Union has enlarged the focus on working with energy efficiency within large companies. Further, the Swedish government has introduced the law about energy auditing in large companies, which is based on the EED. These regulations encourage companies to develop a management system that includes requirements on conducting energy audits and propose cost effective measures. Energy efficiency is already an important aspect within many companies environmental work, however a more developed and systematic approach to energy efficiency than most companies already have is needed in order to fulfill the legal requirements. The Company investigated in this study is one the world’s leading technology companies with more than 9000 employees in Sweden. Currently, they have energy as a significant aspect in their environmental work according to the international management system standard ISO 14001. Today they are also developing their energy work by conducting energy audits in order to comply with the new legislation. This gives a more detailed view of the energy use and potential improvements that can be done, but in order to ensure continual improvements over a long period of time further measures are needed. Within this study it was investigated what measures a large company needs to implement in order to increase their energy performance and comply with the legislation. By a literature review focusing on management systems as well as interviews within the Company, a complementary study with two companies covered by the EED and three expert interviews, five key factors were identified. These factors are top management commitment, awareness, goals, measurements and evaluation. A model was then developed aligning these factors. Further, concrete proposals for action to manage these factors were presented. By increasing focus on these key factors and implement proposed measures companies will increase their energy performance and make the organization aware of how actions affect a company’s energy performance.

Auditor switchingGarach, Hematlal 11 1900 (has links)
Text in English / This study explores the phenomenon of auditor switching. The purpose of this study is to further contribute to the auditor switching literature by examining the reasons client companies in South Africa switch auditors, where the topic has not previously been studied and following a period of rapid and significant change in the auditing profession.
Using previous literature as a foundation, forty-four variables that contribute to auditor switching are presented and tested based on empirical data elicited by means of a questionnaire survey of sample companies that experienced auditor switching during the period 1 January 1998 to 30 June 1999 as obtained from Practitioners in the
KwaZulu-Natal Region. The factors motivating auditor switching were based on a questionnaire response of seventy-five companies (response rate 67% ). The empirical study also tested whether or not the switch variables thus identified are statistically related to auditor switching.
The findings of this study revealed that audit fees are both the most frequently cited reason for switching auditors and found to be statistically significant at the 0.05 level of significance. Dissatisfaction over the overall quality of services provided by the auditor, lack of communication including the lack of responsiveness to client needs,
poor working relationship with audit partner followed as switch factors but were not found to be statistically significant at 0. 05 level. The findings of this study revealed that two other variables, namely, management change and the need for group auditor rationalisation, appear to be significantly related to auditor switching at the 0.05 1evel of significance. / Auditing / M.

Addressing application software package project failure : bridging the information technology gap by aligning business processes and package functionalityKruger, Wandi 12 1900 (has links)
Thesis (MComm)--Stellenbosch University, 2011. / ENGLISH ABSTRACT: An application software package implementation is a complex endeavour, and as such it
requires the proper understanding, evaluation and redefining of the current business
processes to ensure that the project delivers on the objectives set at the start of the
project.
Numerous factors exist that may contribute to the unsuccessful implementation of
application software package projects. However, the most significant contributor to the
failure of an application software package project lies in the misalignment of the
organisation’s business processes with the functionality of the application software
package. Misalignment is attributed to a gap that exists between the business processes
of an organisation and what functionality the application software package has to offer to
translate the business processes of an organisation into digital form when implementing
and configuring an application software package. This gap is commonly referred to as
the information technology (IT) gap.
The purpose of this assignment is to examine and discuss to what degree a supporting
framework such as the Projects IN Controlled Environment (PRINCE2) methodology
assists in the alignment of the organisation’s business processes with the functionality of
the end product; as so many projects still fail even though the supporting framework is
available to assist organisations with the implementation of the application software
package.
This assignment proposes to define and discuss the IT gap. Furthermore this
assignment will identify shortcomings and weaknesses in the PRINCE2 methodology
which may contribute to misalignment between the business processes of the
organisation and the functionality of the application software package.
Shortcomings and weaknesses in the PRINCE2 methodology were identified by:
• Preparing a matrix table summarising the reasons for application software
package failures by conducting a literature study; Mapping the reasons from the literature study to those listed as reasons for project
failure by the Office of Government Commerce (the publishers of the PRINCE2
methodology); • Mapping all above reasons to the PRINCE2 methodology to determine whether
the reasons identified are adequately addressed in the PRINCE2 methodology.
This assignment concludes by proposing recommendations for aligning the business
processes with the functionality of the application software package (addressing the IT
gap) as well as recommendations for addressing weaknesses identified in the PRINCE2
methodology. By adopting these recommendations in conjunction with the PRINCE2
methodology the proper alignment between business processes and the functionality of
the application software package may be achieved. The end result will be more
successful application software package project implementations. / AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Toepassingsprogrammatuurpakket implementering is komplekse strewe en vereis
daarom genoegsame kennis, evaluasie en herdefiniëring van die huidige
besigheidsprosesse om te verseker dat die projek resultate lewer volgens die doelwitte
wat aan die begin van die projek neergelê is.
Daar bestaan talryke faktore wat kan bydrae tot die onsuksesvolle implementering van
toepassingsprogrammatuurpakket projekte. Die grootste bydrae tot die mislukking van
toepassingsprogrammatuurpakket lê egter by die wanbelyning van die organisasie se
besigheidsprosesse met die funksionaliteit van die toepassingsprogrammatuurpakket.
Wanbelyning spruit uit gaping tussen die besigheidsprosesse van `n organisasie en
die funksionaliteit wat die toepassingsprogrammatuur kan aanbied om die
besigheidsprosesse van 'n organisasie om te skakel in digitale formaat wanneer `n
toepassingsprogrammatuurpakket geimplementeer en gekonfigureer word. Daar word
gewoonlik na hierdie gaping verwys as die informasie tegnologie (IT) gaping.
Die doel van hierdie opdrag is om te evalueer en bespreek in watter mate
ondersteunende raamwerk soos die PRojects IN Controlled Environment (PRINCE2)
metodologie kan help om die organisasie se besigheidsprosesse in lyn te bring met die
funksionaliteit van die eindproduk; aangesien so baie projekte steeds misluk ten spyte
van die ondersteunende raamwerke wat beskikbaar is om organisasies by te staan met
die implementering.
Die opdrag beoog om die IT gaping te definieer en te bepreek. Verder sal hierdie opdrag
die swakhede in die PRINCE2 metodologie, wat moontlik die volbringing van behoorlike
belyning tussen die besigheidsprosesse en die funksionaliteit van die
toepassingsprogrammatuurpakket belemmer, identifiseer. Swakhede en tekortkominge in die PRINCE2 metodologie is as volg geïdentifiseer:
• Voorbereiding van matriks-tabel wat die redes vir
toepassingsprogrammatuurpakket mislukking deur middel van die uitvoering van
literatuurstudie opsom
• Koppeling van die redes bekom deur middel van die literatuurstudie met die redes
vir projek mislukking geidentifiseer deur die Office of Government Commerce
(uitgewers van die PRINCE2 metodologie)
• Koppeling van al die bogenoemde redes na die PRINCE2 metodologie om vas te
stel of die redes wat geïdentifiseer is voldoende deur die PRINCE2 metodologie
aangespreek word.
Die opdrag sluit af met aanbevelings om die besigheidsprosesse in lyn te bring met die
funksionaliteit van die toepassingsprogrammatuurpakket en aanbevelings vir swakhede
wat in die PRINCE2 metodologie geïdentifiseer is aan te spreek. Behoorlike belyning
tussen besigheidsprosesse en die funksionaliteit van toepassingsprogrammatuurpakket
kan behaal word indien hierdie aanbevelings aangeneem word en tesame met die
PRINCE2 metodologie gebruik word. Die eindresultaat is meer suksesvolle
implementering van toepassingsprogrammatuurpakket projekte.

Mezinárodní auditorské standardy / International Standards on AuditingKonětopský, Filip January 2009 (has links)
The International Standards on Auditing are created and published by the International Auditing and Assurance Standards Board. These standards are high quality, modern and approved by regulators throughout the world. Most of the developed countries addopted the ISAs in some way. The International Standards on Auditing have been effective for all audits in the Czech Republic since 2005. Their implementation in the European Union is expected shortly. Standards contribute to better international comparability and enhance the credibility and quality of the audit, including auditor's report. The Clarity project was in progress between 2003 and 2009. It was aimed at clearing standards, increasing clarity and facilitating their interpretation.

Turnover of women audit managers in audit firmsGroenewald, Jurika 01 1900 (has links)
Abstracts in English, Afrikaans and Sepedi / Approximately half of the people in the world is female and yet women hold just more than one in every five senior management positions. This underrepresentation is a worldwide phenomenon that is also evident in the audit profession where there are few women at audit partner level. The purpose of this study was to explore the experiences of women audit managers – to gain an understanding of the reasons why they resign from audit firms before they are promoted to audit partner level. It was anticipated that this understanding could enable audit firms to develop and implement effective retention strategies to retain women in audit partner positions and to overcome the potential barriers to the equal representation of men and women in senior management positions in audit firms. An exploratory qualitative research approach and an interpretative phenomenological analysis design were used to explore and interpret the lived experiences of the women audit managers to understand the reasons why they resign from audit firms. The study found that unclear progression paths due to uncertain timelines, as well as the black economic empowerment pressures experienced by the audit firms, explained some of the women’s resignations from the audit firms. Unhealthy supervisor relationships, discrimination, no female role models and the “old boys club” as part of the audit firms’ leadership and organisational culture also played a prominent role in the women audit managers’ experiences. Moreover, unsatisfactory compensation together with no work-life balance were found to have influenced the majority of the women’s decisions to resign from the audit firms. Finally, the study also found that some of the participants’ aspirations to become audit partners were not distinct and that other matters were more important to them than their careers. / Alhoewel ongeveer die helfte van die wêreldbevolking vrouens is, is net een uit elke vyf senior bestuurders 'n vrou. Hierdie onderverteenwoordiging is 'n wêreldwye fenomeen, ook in die ouditberoep waar daar net 'n paar vrouens op ouditvennootvlak is. Die doel van hierdie studie was om die ervarings van vroulike ouditbestuurders te verken – om 'n begrip te kry van die redes waarom hulle bedank uit ouditfirmas voordat hulle tot ouditvennootvlak bevorder word. Die verwagting is dat hierdie begrip ouditfirmas in staat kan stel om effektiewe behoudstrategieë te ontwikkel en te implementeer om vrouens in ouditvennootposisies te behou en om die potensiële struikelblokke tot die gelyke verteenwoordiging van mans en vrouens in seniorbestuursposisies in ouditfirmas te bowe te kom. 'n Eksploratiewe, kwalitatiewe navorsingbenadering en 'n interpretatiewe, fenomenologiese ontledingsontwerp is gebruik om die geleefde ervarings van die vroulike ouditbestuurders te verken en te interpreteer om te kan verstaan waarom hulle uit ouditfirmas bedank. Die studie het bevind dat onduidelike progressiebane as gevolg van vae tydlyne, asook die druk van swart ekonomiese bemagtiging wat oudifirmas ervaar, kan verduidelik waarom sommige van die vrouens uit die ouditfirmas bedank. Ongesonde toesighouerverhoudings, diskriminasie, geen vroulike rolmodelle en die stelsel van baantjies vir boeties as deel van die ouditfirmas se leierskap- en organisasiekultuur speel ook 'n prominente rol in die vroulike ouditbestuurders se ervarings. Boonop is bevind dat onbevredigende vergoeding asook geen werk-lewebalans die meerderheid van die vrouens se besluite beïnvloed om uit die ouditfirmas te bedank. Die studie het ten slotte bevind dat dit nie sommige van die deelnemers se kennelike ambisie is om ouditvennote te word nie, en dat ander aangeleenthede van groter belang vir hulle is as hulle loopbane. / Tekanyetšo ya seripa sa batho mo lefaseng ke basadi efela basadi ke fela o tee godimo ga maemo a mahlano a bolaodi bja godimo.

Economic Consequences of Implementing the Engagement Partner Signature Requirement in the UKUnknown Date (has links)
I investigate the effects of requiring the audit engagement partner (EP) signature and individual EP’s quality on information asymmetry, analysts’ forecast errors and forecast dispersion. I predict and find that, ceteris paribus, there is a significant decline in information asymmetry, analysts’ forecast errors and forecast dispersion from the pre- to post-EP signature period in the UK over both of short-term (e.g., 2008-2010) and long-term (e.g., 2004-2014). These findings hold when using a control sample approach and a different proxy for the information asymmetry, which indicate that my results are not likely due to the effect of concurrent events and correlated omitted variables. These findings provide timely and important empirical evidence to the ongoing debate about whether the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board should pass a similar requirement in the U.S. / Includes bibliography. / Dissertation (Ph.D.)--Florida Atlantic University, 2016. / FAU Electronic Theses and Dissertations Collection
