Abstract: Based on the financial data of listed companies in China, the paper explores the influence mechanism of supply-demand imbalance on audit quality by using audit hours data. The results show that audit input plays a mediating role between “abnormal” supply and audit quality. Specifically, audit input plays a full mediating role in the impact of “abnormal” supply of big 4 on audit quality, and plays a partial mediating role in the impact of “abnormal” supply of next6 and small on audit quality. This paper enriches the related research of audit quality, and provides some reference for exploring the path mechanism of audit quality influencing factors.

Key words: audit market, audit input, mediating effect, audit quality

摘要: 文章基于我国上市公司年度样本,利用审计工时数据研究探索审计市场供需不平衡对审计质量的影响作用机制。结果表明,审计投入在事务所“异常”供给与审计质量间起中介作用,具体而言,审计投入在Big4事务所“异常”供给对审计质量的影响中发挥了完全中介效应,在Next6和Small事务所“异常”供给对审计质量的影响中发挥了部分中介效应。文章丰富了审计质量相关研究,并为深入分析审计质量影响因素的路径机制提供了一些经验证据。
