Publisher Description

ABSTRACT Given the growing list of financial reporting scandals (Enron, WorldCom, Parmalat, etc.), financial reporting is once again at a crossroad (Sutton, 2002, 319). Similarly, the auditing "expectation gap" continues to exist (McEnroe & Martens, 2001) and the investing public is again challenging the auditing profession to develop mechanisms to increase audit effectiveness and thus restore confidence in independent audits (Sutton, 2002). Thus the auditing profession again finds itself amidst a crisis and again it needs to look inward to restore confidence in financial reporting, in general, and the independent audit, specifically. In this regard, we analyze the expectation gap with respect to illegal acts in an effort to improve audit effectiveness.
