Description
Summary:碩士 === 國立成功大學 === 會計學系 === 103 === Drawing from research in auditing and strategy, this study examines whether firm strategy risks influence the audit and non-audit fees. The study uses a sample of 3,561 firms in the TSE and OTC market made by 327 Taiwan-based firms over a period of 12 years to test hypotheses linking firm business-level strategies to the fees. The findings indicate that firms pursuing differentiated strategies are more likely to be charged with higher audit and non-audit fees than firms pursuing the cost leadership strategy. In other words, differentiated strategies are regarded as riskier than the cost leadership strategy.
