The importance of business risk in setting audit fees: Evidence from cases of client misconduct

Article Abstract:

The relation between litigation risk and audit fees is presented by examining alleged client misconduct that is not illegal but possibly increases business risk. The data collected from Securities and Exchange Commission filings and audit fee data in the 1970s provide evidence that audit fees were higher for clients that disclosed paying bribes.
