公司高管不仅会受公司内部锦标赛激励,还会受外部行业劳动力市场的行业锦标赛激励。既有文献发现行业锦标赛激励会提升高管风险承担水平和盈余管理倾向,这均可能会提升审计风险,进而增加审计费用。本文利用2007—2020年中国上市公司数据,考察行业锦标赛激励与审计费用的关系。本文发现,行业锦标赛激励与审计费用正相关,且在考虑潜在内生性问题情况下,研究结论依然成立。本文还发现,行业锦标赛激励对行业同质性较高公司和CEO未临近退休公司审计费用的正向影响更大。最后,本文发现,行业锦标赛激励会通过提高公司风险水平和公司盈余管理程度的途径提升审计费用。本文为行业锦标赛激励影响审计费用提供了经验证据,同时也揭示了高管行业劳动力市场晋升激励会如何影响审计师的定价决策。"/>template{display:none;}.mag-rich-xref-fn { cursor: pointer;}//长视频$(document).ready(function(){if($("#showLongArticleVideo") && $("#showLongArticleVideo").length && $("#showLongArticleVideo").length>0){mag_ajax_update({ele_id:'showLongArticleVideo',url:mag_currentQikanUrl() + "/CN/article/showLongArticleVideo.do?id="+$("#articleId").val()});}});$(document).ready(function(){window.metaData = {"journal":{"issn":"1000-5072","qiKanMingCheng_CN":"暨南学报（哲学社会科学版）","id":2,"qiKanMingCheng_EN":"Jinan Journal"},"article":{"keywordList_cn":["行业锦标赛激励","薪酬差距","审计费用","风险承担 ","盈余管理"],"juan":"45","zhaiyao_cn":"公司高管不仅会受公司内部锦标赛激励,还会受外部行业劳动力市场的行业锦标赛激励。既有文献发现行业锦标赛激励会提升高管风险承担水平和盈余管理倾向,这均可能会提升审计风险,进而增加审计费用。本文利用2007—2020年中国上市公司数据,考察行业锦标赛激励与审计费用的关系。本文发现,行业锦标赛激励与审计费用正相关,且在考虑潜在内生性问题情况下,研究结论依然成立。本文还发现,行业锦标赛激励对行业同质性较高公司和CEO未临近退休公司审计费用的正向影响更大。最后,本文发现,行业锦标赛激励会通过提高公司风险水平和公司盈余管理程度的途径提升审计费用。本文为行业锦标赛激励影响审计费用提供了经验证据,同时也揭示了高管行业劳动力市场晋升激励会如何影响审计师的定价决策。","endNoteUrl_en":"https://jnxb.jnu.edu.cn/skb/EN/article/getTxtFile.do?fileType=EndNote&id=6788","reference":"","bibtexUrl_cn":"https://jnxb.jnu.edu.cn/skb/CN/article/getTxtFile.do?fileType=BibTeX&id=6788","abstractUrl_en":"https://jnxb.jnu.edu.cn/skb/EN/10.11778/j.jnxb.20230740","qi":"9","id":6788,"nian":2023,"bianHao":"1696924650056-67065394","zuoZheEn_L":"WANG Cong, YANG Feiyu","juanUrl_en":"https://jnxb.jnu.edu.cn/skb/EN/Y2023","shouCiFaBuRiQi":"2023-10-10","qiShiYe":"116","qiUrl_cn":"https://jnxb.jnu.edu.cn/skb/CN/Y2023/V45/I9","lanMu_cn":"高质量发展","pdfSize":"1239","zuoZhe_CN":"王聪, 杨飞宇","risUrl_cn":"https://jnxb.jnu.edu.cn/skb/CN/article/getTxtFile.do?fileType=Ris&id=6788","title_cn":"行业锦标赛激励与审计费用","doi":"10.11778/j.jnxb.20230740","jieShuYe":"132","keywordList_en":["industry tournament incentives","pay gap","audit fees","risk taking","earnings management"],"endNoteUrl_cn":"https://jnxb.jnu.edu.cn/skb/CN/article/getTxtFile.do?fileType=EndNote&id=6788","zhaiyao_en":"In recent years, as the compensation disparity among Chinese listed companies has continued to widen, an increasing number of executives enhance their value through mobility in the industry labor market, thereby strengthening the industry tournament incentive effect on executives. While industry tournament incentives can mitigate agency issues within companies, they might also elevate executive risk-taking behavior and earnings management tendencies, consequently influencing audit fees. However, scarce literature has explored the relationship between industry tournament incentives and audit fees. Utilizing data from Chinese listed companies, this study employs the compensation gap between CEOs and the highest-paid CEOs in the industry as a measure of industry tournament incentives. It investigates the impact of industry tournament incentives on audit fees. Empirical findings reveal that companies characterized by strong industry tournament incentives tend to incur higher audit fees. This suggests that the stronger the industry labor market incentivizes CEO promotions, the higher the associated audit fees. Even after addressing endogeneity concerns, using alternative measures for industry tournament incentives, considering the influence of CFO industry tournament incentives, and accounting for the managerial entrenchment substitute hypothesis, the conclusions of this study remain robust. Heterogeneity analysis indicates that the positive impact of industry tournament incentives on audit fees is more pronounced in companies with high industry homogeneity and CEOs not approaching retirement. This implies that when CEOs exhibit a strong willingness to participate in industry tournaments, the positive effect of industry tournament incentives on audit fees is amplified in such firms. The examination of influencing mechanisms reveals that the mediation of company risk levels and earnings management in the positive relationship between industry tournament incentives and audit fees suggests that such incentives elevate audit fees by heightening company risk profiles and the degree of earnings management. This study contributes in several ways. Firstly, it bridges the gap between executive labor market incentives and audit pricing decisions by investigating whether industry labor market incentives for CEO promotions influence auditor pricing choices, thereby enriching both research domains. Secondly, the study findings unveil that auditor pricing decisions consider the impact of industry tournament incentives on executive risk behavior. Lastly, the paper provides theoretical groundwork and empirical evidence for the heterogeneity of the effects of industry tournament incentives on executive behavior and firm outcomes. To a certain extent, this research elucidates how industry labor market incentives for executive promotions impact auditor pricing decisions, aiding listed companies in establishing sound executive compensation incentive mechanisms. This, in turn, reduces company risk levels and earnings management, subsequently mitigating audit risks and associated audit fees.","bibtexUrl_en":"https://jnxb.jnu.edu.cn/skb/EN/article/getTxtFile.do?fileType=BibTeX&id=6788","abstractUrl_cn":"https://jnxb.jnu.edu.cn/skb/CN/10.11778/j.jnxb.20230740","zuoZheCn_L":"王聪, 杨飞宇","juanUrl_cn":"https://jnxb.jnu.edu.cn/skb/CN/Y2023","lanMu_en":"","qiUrl_en":"https://jnxb.jnu.edu.cn/skb/EN/Y2023/V45/I9","zuoZhe_EN":"WANG Cong, YANG Feiyu","risUrl_en":"https://jnxb.jnu.edu.cn/skb/EN/article/getTxtFile.do?fileType=Ris&id=6788","title_en":"Impact of Industry Tournament Incentives and Audit Fees","hasPdf":"true"},"authorNotes_cn":["王聪、杨飞宇,暨南大学经济学院。"]};if(window.metaData && (!window.metaData.authorNotesCommon_cn && !window.metaData.authorNotesCorresp_cn && window.metaData.authorNotes_cn)){window.metaData.authorNotesCommon_cn = window.metaData.authorNotes_cn;}if(window.metaData && (!window.metaData.authorNotesCommon_en && !window.metaData.authorNotesCorresp_en && window.metaData.authorNotes_en)){window.metaData.authorNotesCommon_en = window.metaData.authorNotes_en;}var _nlmdtdXml = $("#article_nlmdtdXml").val();var magDir = _nlmdtdXml.replace(/\/[^\/]+$/,'');window.metaData.magDir = magDir;new mag_vue({ el: '#metaVue', //dataUrl: mag_currentQikanUrl() + '/EN/article/getRichHtmlJson.do?articleId='+$("#articleId").val(), data:window.metaData, loading:true, doTextFun:function(text){ return doDataJsonText(text);
