Özet

The discussions about whether the manner of application of mandatory rotation affects the auditquality still continue in developing countries and EU countries, notably the USA. Therefore, weinvestigate whether Mandatory Audit Firm Rotation (MROT) enhances audit quality in Turkey forthe years 2010-2016. The findings show that companies audited by mandatorily rotated newauditors have less discretionary accruals and thus higher audit quality than those non-rotatedaudit firms (NROT). In addition, we find that the audit quality in companies that are subjected tothe mandatory rotation is higher than the audit quality of the same companies one year agounder old audit firms. Thus, our findings support the idea that mandatory audit firm rotationenhances audit quality.
