説明

Audit failures are often caused by the inability of auditors to maintain independence. The lack of independence is an enemy of systematic and efficient audit operations. How can auditors secure independence? To answer this question, we need to discuss a wide variety of issues, including not only an appropriate organization of auditors, quality control and governance but also the necessity of auditors’ rotation and the whereabouts of an authority to select auditor members or determine remuneration for auditors. This paper focuses on audit quality control, which is an essential task in ensuring reliable audit results, and discusses present situations and problems regarding audit quality control systems from the viewpoint of audit firms, JICPA (Japanese Institute of Certified Public Accountants) and CPAAOB (Certified Public Accountants and Auditing Oversight Board). We also discuss whether or not the size of an audit firms is relevant to its ability to conduct appropriate quality control of audit operations, since we consider it important to clarify such relevance or irrelevance for identifying desirable quality control systems for respective audit firms. We conducted a questionnaire survey on both large audit firms and small and medium-size counterparts to find and analyze the status of their respective quality control systems, and this paper explains the survey results
