本研究利用中国关键审计事项(KAM)报告的数据,评估了 KAM 规则是否提高了审计质量以及 KAM 披露与审计质量的关系。通过文本分析,我们详细评估了披露特征,发现审计师报告了行业通用和公司特定的 KAM。这些措辞在很大程度上是针对公司的,并且在 KAM 报告组成部分中有所不同。我们通过事前事后分析和双重差分分析进行的实证调查表明,遵循强制性规则,审计质量得到了提高。横断面分析表明,KAM 的数量和披露特征(例如特异性、相似性、可读性和长度)表明审计师对客户盈余质量、审计工作以及发表修改意见的倾向的关注。总的来说,我们的论文提供了一些关于新 KAM 报告的实施和传播价值的证据。 数据可用性:数据可从文中引用的公共来源获得。 JEL 分类: M41; M42; M48。
Using Chinese data of key audit matters (KAM) reports, this study assesses whether the KAM rule improves audit quality and how KAM disclosures relate to audit quality. With textual analysis, we evaluate disclosure characteristics in detail and find that auditors report both industry-generic and firm-specific KAM. The wordings, to a large extent, are firm-specific and differ in KAM reporting components. Our empirical investigation via the pre-post and difference-in-differences analyses reveals that audit quality is improved following the mandatory rule. The cross-sectional analysis shows that the number of KAMs and disclosure characteristics (such as specificity, similarity, readability, and length) signal auditors' concern about clients' earnings quality, audit effort, and the propensity of issuing modified opinions. Overall, our paper provides some evidence on the implementation and communicative value of the new KAM reporting. Data Availability: Data are available from the public sources cited in the text.
