Summary:Our interest in this topic arises out of the growing popularity of provision of non-audit services by CPA firms to their audit clients. The main focus of our study is on the examination of auditor activity in the area of non-audit services or management advisory services (MAS), and its impact on users' perceptions of auditor independence.
