会计诚信、审计质量与公司价值——基于中国沪深A股上市公司的经验证据Accounting Integrity, Audit Quality, and Corporate Value——Based on the Empirical Evidence of Chinese A-share Listed Companies in Shanghai and Shenzhen

摘要(Abstract):
作为上市公司价值实现的基础,会计诚信得到社会各界广泛关注。本文运用规范研究与实证研究相结合的方法,考察会计诚信的微观经济后果与机理以及审计质量在其中的影响机制,并进一步探讨融资约束影响。研究发现:在其他因素给定的条件下,会计诚信对公司价值提升起到显著促进作用;审计质量在其间起到了部分中介作用。进一步分析发现,融资约束在会计诚信与公司价值之间发挥了正向调节作用,这一调节作用通过审计质量这一中介机制实现,即融资约束通过审计质量的中介作用对会计诚信与公司价值间关系发挥正向调节作用。具体而言,融资约束程度越高,会计诚信对公司价值提升的促进作用越明显,对高质量审计需求越迫切,审计质量的中介效应更为显著。为应对目前经济下行压力和失信问题,政策制定者在建立健全正式制度的同时,更要关注对非正式制度的引导与约束。本文丰富了会计诚信领域研究,对坚定文化自信,推动以德治国具有重要的启示意义。
