KİLİT DENETİM KONULARI (KDK) STANDARDI UYGULAMASI İLE BAĞIMSIZ DENETİM KALİTE İLİŞKİSİ ÜZERİNE BİR ARAŞTIRMA

In this study, independent auditors' perceptions towards audit quality are investigated with the Key Audit Matters (KAM) standard practice. For this reason, surveys were conducted to independent auditors who work actively in independent audit firms. Two scales developed by researcher were used in the applied surveys. The statements in the scales were prepared based on national and international literature. These scales are "KAM Perception Scale" and "Quality (Quality Assurance System-QAS) Perception Scale". First, factor analysis applied to the survey results in order to determine the extent of KAM and audit quality. Then, the data obtained were applied reliability analysis, correlation and regression analysis. The data were analyzed in the R program. In the research findings, it has been revealed that effective handling of KAM practices in risk assessment and especially in the risk response process, positively affects the audit quality within the scope of quality control activities.
