Abstract

The financial report must be accountable for the truth, therefore it is necessary to have an audit conducted by an independent auditor. However, there are some cases that have caused some auditors not to be independent, so that regulations have emerged regarding the obligation to change auditors in various countries including Indonesia. This study aims to examine the effects of financial distress, change of management, reputation of auditors and size of companies to auditors switching. This research uses sample of manufacturing companies with basic & chemical industry sector listed in Indonesia Stock Exchange (BEI) in 2013 until 2016. Total of companies sampled in this research are 10 companies with 4 years observation period. Pursuant to purposive sampling method total of sample of this research is 40 financial reports. This study used logistic regression analysis for variable testing because the dependent variable is dichotomous (yes or no auditor switching). The results showed that the change of management had an effect on the switching auditor. While financial distress, auditor's and size of client companies reputation does not affect the company's decision to perform switching auditors.
