Description
Summary:Financial information that has being deteriorated by fraud will misled users. Hence, the main objective of this paper is to identify the association between five ratios of financial reporting risks to predict fraud. Furthermore, this paper also investigates the impacts of fraud detection on audit fee. Thus, sample of 10 of fraudulent companies and sample of 40 non fraudulent companies are being identified to achieve the objective. Stepwise logistic regression was being employed. The results clearly indicate that changes in sales, receivables and allowance for doubtful debts have significant effect of fraud detection. However, fraud detection gives no or little impact on audit fees. Copyright © 2012 IEEE.
