Brazel et al. (2004) found that under face-to-face review, which means reviewers meet the preparers and discuss review notes in person, preparers feel more accountable and concern more about audit quality. Thus, the quality of working paper is better but less efficiency. On the other hand, under electronic review, which means reviewers send review notes to preparers by e-mail and allow preparers more time to answer the questions, prepaers fell less accountable and concern more about audit efficiency. Thus, the quality of working paper is worse but more efficiency. It seems that electronic review would lower the audit quality. During these days, the responsibility of accountants is heavier. The audit quality is more and more demanded. According to Brazel et al. (2004), if we want to insure or increase audit quality, we have to take more face-to-face review, and less electronic review. However, it conflicts with the trend of the current audit environment. There may be some boundary conditions. Under the boundary conditions, electronic review may not lower audit quality and may improve audit efficiency. This study takes “reviewer’s preference” into consideration, and divided reviewer’s preference into three kinds: skepticism, credence, and unknown reviewer’s preference. We hope to find that under which reviewer’s preference, taking electronic review won’t affect audit quality but can improve audit efficiency. Also, under which reviewer’s preference, audit firms have to take face-to-face review to assure audit quality. The result of this study shows that if the reviewer’s preference is credence, electronic review can improve audit efficiency without affecting audit quality. In addition, if the reviewer’s preference is skepticism, electronic review improves audit efficiency but lower the audit quality. Taking face-to-face review can assure audit quality. Finally, if the preparer doesn’t know the reviewer’s preferce, he would tend to be more conservative. Thus, the audit quality and efficiency is like under the skepticism condition. Taking face-to-face review can assure audit quality.謝辭 i文摘要 ii文摘要 iii錄 iv表目錄 vi一章 緒 論 1一節 研究動機與目的 1二節 研究問題 3三節 論文結構及研究過程 3二章 文獻探討與研究假設 5一節 解釋責任 5二節 研究假設 21三章 研究方法 27一節 研究變數 27二節 實驗材料與工作 30三節 受試者 36四節 實驗程序 40五節 統計分析方法 43四章 研究結果與分析 44一節 操弄檢查 44二節 敘述統計 47三節 假設檢定 50五章 結論、研究限制與未來研究建議 68一節 結 論 69二節 研究限制 72三節 未來研究建議 73考文獻 74錄 77application/pdf545229 bytesapplication/pdfen-US解釋責任核閱方式核閱者立場查核工作績效AccountabilityAudit FormsAudit Performancehttp://ntur.lib.ntu.edu.tw/bitstream/246246/179858/1/ntu-97-R95722010-1.pdf
