The Effect Of Profitability, Company Size, Auditor Reputation, And Leverage O...AJHSSR Journal
ABSTRACT : Audited financial statements are one of the information that plays an important role in the
investment business in the capital market. The audit completion process also affects the quality of financial
reports. This reflects the importance of timeliness in presenting financial reports to the public. Various
constraints that affect timeliness can come from internal and external companies. Therefore this study aims to
determine the effect of profitability, company size, auditor reputation, and leverage on Audit Delay in Property
and Real Estate Companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange in 2019-2021. This study uses secondary
data that can be accessed through the Indonesia Stock Exchange website (www.idx.co.id) in the form of
financial reports and company annual reports. The data analysis technique used is the classical assumption test,
t test, F test and multiple regression analysis using SPSS software (Statistical Package for the Social Science)
version 26. The sample of this study consisted of 88 companies in the Property and Real Estate Sector and the
sampling method was carried out by purposive sampling method. Using this method, a sample of 21 companies
was obtained with an observation period of 3 years (2019- 2021). The results of this study show that company
size has an effect on audit delay while profitability, auditor reputation, and leverage have no effect on audit
delay.
KEYWORDS: audit delay, profitability, company size, auditor reputation, and leverage.
Independence of supreme audit institutions in sub saharan africaicgfmconference
In the next paper, Andy Wynne considers the key issue of independence for supreme audit institutions (auditors general in English speaking countries). Models of public sector ‘external’ audit type institutions are described for English and French speaking African countries. Neither approach can claim to fully meet international standards for independence, but different approaches to the provision of audit type services are considered to be acceptable. This emphasises the need to understand existing systems before external models are adopted as part of a reform process.

regarding the financial management of entities who are the responsible for managing
the public funds in implementing development tasks of the government. The entity
which has been formed with the purpose of providing an overall view on the
performance of public entities Auditor General’s Department.
Auditor General is considered as an independent party. The independent of the
Auditor General is preserved by the constitution itself and the article 153. It states that
Auditor General only can be appointed and removed by Parliament. Same as that the
Auditor General does not come under the supervision of any minister or office of the
government. It is identified as the prime organization responsible for reviewing the
affairs of the public organizations and reporting to Parliament. It is making every
possible effort to rectify the situation by showing and leading the correct path, in
order to have a better financial management and good governance of the public sector
with the intention of contributing to the development of our country.
An efficient government Audit system is considered as an essence in order to manage
finance in public entities. It is taking in to account as a mandatory requirement since
public funds are managed by those entities. Then an efficient government audit
system is identified as a core feature in country’s economy with the step toward its
development. It is one of the reasons that the Auditor General is considered as an
independent party by the constitution itself. The power of Auditor General which is
provided by the constitution assures the effectiveness of the entire government audit
system. Then Auditor General can freely provide an overall view about the
implementation of total government system. On the other hand it ensures the
effectiveness of COPE committee. Auditor General provides the guidance for the task
of preparing COPE report. As well as Auditor General is one of the parties who
involves to the function of performance evaluation of government entities with the
COPE committee.
6. 5
Powers of Auditor General
As above stated Auditor General is recognized as an individual party who is free to
provide his overall view about government sector without any hesitation. The
constitution itself has made that happen by giving constitutional powers to Auditor

Auditor General is appointed by the president. The salary of the Auditor General is
determined by Parliament and it will be charged on the consolidated fund and it is not

president due to ill health or physical or mental infirmity or upon an address of
Parliament other than his death or resignation or retirement. Whenever the Auditor
General is unable to discharge the functions of his office, the president may appoint a
person to act in the place of Auditor General.
The Auditor General shall audit the accounts of all government entities vested in the
government under any written law. Auditor General shall also perform and discharge
duties in functions which have been prescribe by Parliament by law. The Auditor
General or any person authorized by him has the power to access to all books,
records, returns and other documents, to access to stores and other properties, and to

of duties and functions.
All the above stated functions are based upon the power of the Auditor General by the
constitution which has made him a free and autonomous party. That power is
provided to him in order to present and overall view which is independent and
significantly fair. Since the Auditor General is not bound with any public entity, he
can freely provide his independent view without any bias. It has made be government
audit system an effective one. Government audit system has got the ability to
implement its auditing process without any interference of any party, since the
Auditor General is an independent party. As well as all the government entities are
legally bound to provide all the information regarding any matter. It has made the
government audit system more effective.
7. 6
Impact of Government Audit System to
COPE/COPA
The need of strengthening and enhancing the capacity of the Auditor General’s
Department and the COPE secretariat is strongly recommended by the Committee
since the efficiency and the effectiveness of the Committee depend on these two
important elements to a greater extent. Giving an opportunity to gain experience and
knowledge on the practices related to oversight committees in other countries may be
instrumental for them to cater a better contribution towards the Committee.
It is the view of the Committee that the aspect of performance audit should be
extended further in addition to the traditional financial auditing in order to assess the
achievement in relation to the economy, efficiency and the effectiveness in the
employment of available resources by the public enterprises. The performance audit
carried out by the Auditor General’s Department in relation to the solid waste
management in urban councils, matters related to the Timber Corporation and the
environmental issues in consequence of the non-closure of the deserted mines could
be noted as commendable initiatives taken by the Auditor General’s Department in
implementing this new type of audit practiced in the country. The following measures
are recommended to adopt in order to increase the effectiveness of the COPE.
As and when it is necessary, the Committee will make On-the-spot inspections into
selected institutions to get a broader understanding on the matters needed to be
investigated. Initiating this practice, the Committee has already made On-the-spot
investigations into the Sri Jayewardenepura Hospital, Institute of Tourism and Hotel
Management and on the directive of the Committee the Auditor General had made a
special investigation into the matter related to the import of contaminated fuel by the
Ceylon Petroleum Corporation of which the report had already been submitted to the
Hon. Speaker.
8. 7
The COPE will specify legal, disciplinary, recovery and corrective actions
immediately on completion of the meeting with the institution. Doing commitment on
each action will be tied to a time frame. As well as Secretariat will make
presentations to the COPE on the progress to follow up action at a special meeting
convened each quarter.
As result of those found wanting for further investigation on fraud, cheating and
corruption to Brought before COPE for detailed investigation, Referred to the relevant
Ministry for action and where appropriate, referred to the Anti-Bribery and
Corruption Commission.
As well as increase the comparative understanding of members, immediate steps will
be taken to set up a data bank or outsource the requirements of a data bank so that the
institutions can be evaluated in a comparative landscape for better performance.
Procedure of presenting COPE report
The findings and recommendation of COPE report will be presented to the parliament
every three months. Then an annual debate will be called within a month release of
the COPE annual report. Furthermore the debates will be called as and when required
based on the quarterly report. After that the COPE secretariat will publish the names
of institutions which have been listed for COPE investigation at least one month
before the institution present. Then the COPE will summon institutions which should
appear before the committee at short notice if warranted. Then the subcommittee will
identified institutions which should be investigated with the assistance of the
secretariat. There will be a grading of government institutions by losses, risk
undertaken, loss of reputation and strategic importance to country. After that an
agenda will be proposed to the COPE which includes a time table. The frequency of
an institution being summon will be based on its grading. Then the report will be
finalized.
9. 8
Financial results of examined institutions
In the COPE report, the financial statements of government institutions provide a true
and fair view, by executing rules and regulations of Auditor General. According to
COPE report, the government institutions are subdivided by two categories. They are
limited liability companies and strategic business enterprises and non-commercial
public enterprises.
It can be recognized the effectiveness and orderliness of the Auditor General’s
department by analyzing the financial statements of COPE Committee regarding
above stated two subdivided categories. It has been identified the frauds and
corruptions and the amendment which should be executed within government entities
in 2010 by COPE report. Same as that the corrective actions have been provided by
government audit system and the COPE committee.
It is enable to acquire the profitability to some organizations which were sinking on
losses and some organizations which were making losses could reduce their losses in
2011 by implementing those necessary actions which were recommended by COPE
committee and the government audit system. It can be observed not only the
government entities which could improve their financial stability by following
guidance, but also some government entities which neglected that guidance have
become more loss earning entities as the COPE report in 2013. In that case, it can be
concluded that Audit General’s department have enclosed a true and fair view about
the financial statement without any biases. Then there is no any controversy that
government audit system which is executed by Audit General’s department and
COPE committee are effectively implemented within the country. Further it can be
concluded by following sources. Based on the nature of incorporation, the institutions
found under each category had been assigned with the following abbreviations.
LLC - Limited Liability Company
SBE - Strategic Business Enterprise
RMI - Regulatory and Monitoring Institution
UTI - Universities, Research and Other Training Institutions
