Abstract

This study examines the effect of financial distress, debt default, and the reputation of Public Accounting Firms (KAP) on going concern audit opinions, both simultaneously and partially. This research employs a quantitative approach. The population of this study consists of property and real estate sector companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) during the observation period of 2020–2024, totaling 92 companies. The sample was selected using purposive sampling, resulting in 42 companies with five years of observation, yielding a total of 210 data samples. The data analysis technique used in this study is logistic regression, utilizing E-Views 10 statistical software. The results of this study conclude that, simultaneously, financial distress, debt default, and the reputation of Public Accounting Firms (KAP) have an effect on going concern audit opinions. Partially, the test results show that financial distress has an effect on going concern audit opinions, while debt default and the reputation of Public Accounting Firms (KAP) do not have a significant effect on going concern audit opinions.
