Information technology auditing : An evolving agenda
An evolving agenda of Information Technology Auditing is subject of this book. The author presents various current and future issues in the domain of IT Auditing in both scholarly as well as highly practice-driven manner so as to make those issues clear in the mind of an IT auditor. The aim of the book is not to delve deep on the technologies but the impact of these technologies on practices and procedures of IT auditors. Among the topics are complex integrated information systems, enterprise resource planning, databases, complexities of internal controls, and enterprise application integration - all seen from an auditor's perspective. The book will serve a big purpose of support reference for an auditor dealing with the high-tech environment for the first time, but also for experienced auditors.

Impact of Corporate Governance on Earnings Management
This research was aimed to study the impact of corporate governance on earnings management, and to explain the relationship between both of these variables. To achieve that goal the research depended on practical study; by extracting an actual data from the 8 conventional banks listed in DSE. the extracted data were then analyzed by using descriptive statistics, simple and multiple linear regression test and ANOVA test to examine the research hypothesis. The results showed that there is a governance impact on earnings management, and defined the relationship between audit committee and earnings management as negative relationship. and also, a negative relationship between top share and earnings management. And finally, we found no impact of CEO duality on earnings management.
IFRS for Small and Medium-Sized Enterprises : Structuring the Transition Process
In the process of converting to IFRS, a number of practical questions arise concerning the structures of the accounting area department of medium-sized enterprises as well as the issue of effectively updating financial statements once converted, which have thus far not been addressed in the debate. Richard Wittsiepe analyses the relevant IFRS statements with a view to possibly integrating them into existing workflows in an annual audit. He weighs the key issues of conversion by comparing them with the 4th EU Directive for accounting within the EU. The aim is to visualise the workflows as the basis for creating support software which can make a key contribution to cost-effective conversion.
