Abstract

This research investigated factors influencing auditor switching decisions in transportation and logistics companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) between 2020 and 2022. The study employed logistic regression analysis to examine the impact of five variables: audit delay, Public Accounting Firm size, audit opinion, financial distress, and management change. Data for 72 companies was obtained through purposive sampling. The analysis revealed that Public Accounting Firm size and a clean audit opinion (unqualified opinion) significantly increased the likelihood of a company switching auditors. Conversely, audit delay, financial distress (measured by the Altman Z-Score Model), and management changes did not have a statistically significant positive effect on auditor switching decisions.
