关键审计事项披露对管理层非正常在职消费的抑制效应

The Inhibitory Effect of Key Audit Matters Disclosure on Abnormal Perks of Management

本文研究了关键审计事项披露对管理层非正常在职消费的影响。研究发现,公司上一年度审计报告中披露的关键审计事项越多,管理层本年度的非正常在职消费越少,说明关键审计事项的披露可以抑制管理层非正常在职消费。进一步研究发现,这一抑制效应在关键审计事项文本可读性较高、文本相似度较低的公司中更为明显;另外,这种效应在“十大”会计师事务所审计以及客户重要性较低的公司中更加突出;此外,本文还发现关键审计事项披露对管理层非正常在职消费的抑制效应,在没有分析师跟踪和监事会规模更小的公司中尤为显著。最后,本文发现上一年度关键审计事项的披露导致管理层非正常在职消费降低后,被审计单位当年度的盈余质量得到了提高。
