Assessing Internal Audit Quality, Audrey A. Gramling, Scott D. Vandervelde

Faculty Articles

Internal audit quality is an issue of great importance to both the internal and external audit professions. PCAOB Auditing Standard No 2 highlights this importance when addressing the reliance that the external auditor can place on the internal audit work product. The study discussed here experimentally tests the influence of the source of the internal audit function on both the internal and external auditors' evaluation of the quality of the internal audit function. To assess the importance of the internal audit function's sourcing arrangement in the internal audit function's quality assessment, the researchers employ a case study approach, modifying a …

This has led to the government making laws to restrict those in the industry, making fraud harder to commit. The laws that the government has made have made it very expensive and hard for those in the …

Loss Function Asymmetry And Forecast Optimality: Evidence From Individual Analysts' Forecasts, Stanimir Markov, Min Yen Tan

Research Collection School Of Accountancy

We examine the optimality of quarterly earning forecasts issued by individual analysts. When we conduct Ordinary Least Squares (OLS) and Least Absolute Deviations (LAD) analyses, which assume loss function symmetry, we reject the null of forecast optimality at 5% significance level more than 5% of the time. Relaxing the symmetry assumption reduces the frequency of rejections below 5%. We demonstrate that the cross-sectional variation in the asymmetry parameter of the loss function is related to analyst employment. Overall, our evidence is consistent with the joint hypothesis of asymmetric loss and forecast optimality rather than the alternative of symmetric loss and …

Is It Next For Erm? Information Technology Provides The Vital Infrastructure For Building A Modern Enterprise, Sridhar Ramamoorti, Marcia L. Weidenmier

Accounting Faculty Publications

As the waves of change caused by the U.S. Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 subside, the next force likely to sweep over organizations is the need to implement enterprise risk management (ERM). ERM has sparked a paradigm shift by encouraging organizations to build a comprehensive risk strategy into their business operations and spurring internal auditors to move from a primarily control-based approach to a predominantly risk-based approach.

One major area of enterprise risk that internal auditors must understand is how information technology (IT) affects their organization within the context of The Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission's (COSO's) Enterprise …
