摘要


會計師事務所是知識密集且人力密集之典型知識經濟的服務型產業,人力資本自然為主要生產要素,本研究旨在探討國內會計師事務所人力資本的差異性比較。實證資料源自我國行政院金融監督管理委員會2004-2007年之「會計師事務所服務業調查報告」,共四個年度,總計216家會計師事務所之定組追蹤資料(Balance Panel Data)為實證分析對象,並採Elder ,Beasley and Arens(2008)分類方法將事務所區分為「小型」、「中型」、「大型」、「國際型」四類,以平均數之t檢定及中位數之無母數檢定,加以實證分析人力資本在不同規模下的投入差異。 實證結果發現:整體而言,會計師事務所人力資本投入要素,確實隨著規模不同有顯著差異。首先,規模較大之會計師事務所,在高等學歷的會計師人數比、人力資本槓桿、員工平均教育程度的投資程度顯著高於規模較小之會計師事務所。其次,在經驗豐富的會計師人數比、員工經驗、執業會計師佔員工人數百分比等方面,實證分析顯示在小型會計師事務所投入程度反而顯著高於規模較大型之會計師事務所。最後,在專業人員的平均訓練費支出方面,實證分析顯示在大型會計師事務所投入程度並未顯著高於小、中型之會計師事務所。本研究希望藉此提供會計師事務所作參考,促使其對所內人力資本投入的重視,進而提昇事務所之審計品質,保障財務報表使用者的權利,以利資本市場之健全發展。
