Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the impact of mergers between large and small audit firms and how these mergers affect the relationships between the firms and their clients. In analyzing the responses of clients to mergers between their auditors and Big Eight firms, the author argues that clients with positive stockholder values for high-quality audits, and those with international operations, will choose a Big Eight firm, while other clients may opt for a non-Big Eight firm. The text uses empirical tests to explore the concept that the probability that a client will remain with the acquiring Big Eight firm is a function of changes in long-term debt and contributed capital, leverage, size, and growth in size. Ultimately, the book provides insights into the economic variables that influence client responses to mergers between their auditors and Big Eight firms, offering valuable information for both potential Big Eight audit firms and clients considering auditor changes.
