摘要
随着数字经济的发展,会计师事务所信息化建设不断加强。基于2017—2019年41家会计师事务所的调研数据,实证检验了数字经济背景下审计信息化对审计质量的影响。研究发现,审计信息化水平越高,审计质量越高。机制检验结果表明,审计信息化通过提高审计效率和审计师行业专长来提高审计质量。异质性分析结果显示,在非“四大”和未变更客户的会计师事务所,以及信息化程度较高、位于智慧城市和高管团队更年轻的企业,审计信息化对审计质量的正向影响效应更显著。进一步研究发现,审计信息化提高审计质量进而促进了企业价值的提升。因此,会计师事务所应充分重视审计信息化建设,加强对审计师信息化知识的培训,提高审计效率和审计师行业专长,充分发挥审计信息化对审计质量的提升作用。
