For global companies that are going to raise funds from international capital markets or to which lots of foreign investment are being given, it is necessary to prepare consolidated financial statements. This study provides the results of some analyses in accordance with the system of consolidated financial statements disclosure. First, disclosing those statements with audit opinion reflected would provide useful reliable and financial information. Second, such disclosure as foresaid would meet international standards that consolidated financial statements are used as main financial statements and separate financial statements as auxiliary ones. The disclosure system would make it possible for domestic corporations to introduce international accounting standards earlier, especially from 2009, in accordance with the road map of those standards. Third, the system of consolidated financial statements disclosure would play an important role in promoting the implementation of consolidated taxation systems under which corporate tax is levied in accordance with consolidated balance sheet.

This study examine the relation between additional disclosure information of external audits details on consolidated financial statements, audit hours, and audit fees. The results of the analysis of listed companies that disclosed consolidated financial statements from 2014 to 2016 are as follows. First, the additional disclosures of the consolidated financial statements external audit is positively associated with the audit hours of the auditor. This result can be interpreted that the additional disclosure of the consolidated audit information is based on the incentive to provide useful information of auditor. Second, the audit fees of the auditors for additional disclosures in the consolidated financial statements were not significantly related. This suggests that, the additional disclosure of the consolidated audit practice is not based on the auditor's perception of the audit risk. This study provides that information on the external audit details of audit reports and consolidated audit reports is distinguished and disclosed, providing useful information to researchers. In addition, this study suggests policy implications by demonstrating that disclosure of the details of the external audit of the consolidated financial statements is based on the auditors' incentive to provide useful information.

The purpose of auditing is to express an auditor's opinion on the fair presentation of the financial position and business operations of companies according to the financial accounting standards, and to raise the reliability of the financial statements and to enable the user of the financial statements to make a proper judgement on the companies. There should be an audit risk in the audit of the financial statements in a modem sense because it is done by the sampling audit not by the detailed one. Audit risk is the risk that an auditor may unknowingly fail to modify appropriately the auditors' report on financial statements containing a material misstatement. The audit risk eventually hurt the reliability of the financial statements when the auditors set up different audit risks because it is determined by the auditor's professional judgement. Thus, there have been negative opinions on the Audit Risk Model suggested in the SAS No. 47 because it cannot explain the process of auditor's judgement and bring different results. In view of the results so far achieved, which influences the auditor's decision making, should be done by the Belief Function Mode Model in a position of raising the reliability of the financial statements and emphasizing the usefulness and effectiveness of the auditing.

This paper analyzes for companies of 2011~2014 the effects of corporate social responsibility on audit efficiency. Using KEJI Index and its individual components which is published by Citizens' Coalition for Economic Justice Institute, this paper analyzes their effects on audit efficiency of audit fees and audit hours. The results of analyses are as followings. First, corporate social responsibility(CSR) composite index did not show any significant relationship between audit fees and audit hours. However, for analyses of the effects of CSR individual components on audit efficiency, variable such as CSR fairness(CSR2), CSR social contribution(CSR3), CSR environmental protection activity(CSR5) have the negative effects on the audit fees and audit time. and CSR customer protection(CSR4), CSR employee satisfaction(CSR6) have the positive effects on the audit fees and audit time. Results suggest that independent auditors may reduce audit risks associated with possible misrepresentation of financial statements for companies with high scores of CSR fairness (CSR2), CSR social contribution(CSR3), and CSR environmental protection activity(CSR5). Also, financial statement auditors may perceive surge of discretionary expenses, and set audit risk high for companies with CSR customer protection(CSR4), and CSR employee satisfaction(CSR6). Together, KEJI Index and its individual components appear to have differential effects on audit efficiency.

This paper examines the effect of the adoption of international financial reporting standards(IFRS) on the financial reporting of SMEs. As IFRS is principle-based, management's discretion is needed to reflect the economic substance of transactions, and a sound internal accounting infrastructure is needed to support the judgment process. In the case of SMEs, the internal accounting infrastructure is not well established, which makes it difficult to apply principle-based accounting. The survey analysis of 132 small and medium-sized business accounting managers listed in the domestic stock market showed that the reliability of financial statements has increased due to the introduction of IFRS. In particular, SMEs perceived their financial statements as being more reliable after the adoption of IFRS than midsize companies. However, it was found that the costs and risks from the preparation of financial statements have increased significantly, and conflicts between auditors and supervisory authorities related to the application of the principles have increased. In particular, midsize companies felt the increase in conflict with auditors and supervisory authorities bigger than small companies. As for the practical difficulties in applying IFRS, both small and medium-sized companies have difficulty in interpreting the standards and lacked guidelines. In order to resolve these difficulties, it is necessary to enhance the function of Q&A by the Korea Accounting standard board(KASB) or Financial Supervisory Service(FSS). In conclusion, the reliability of the financial statements of SMEs has improved with the introduction of IFRS. However, we believe that policy and institutional support is needed in order to have better financial reporting for SMEs.
