This study aims to analyze the extent to which the mediating role of corporate governance on the influence of state ownership on audit findings issued by Audit Board of the Republic of Indonesia on State-Owned Enterprises in Indonesia. The study used a sample of 98 observations (firm-year) during the period of 2010-2014. The results indicate that directly in line with predictions, there is a positive influence of the degree of state ownership on audit findings, and it is found that the level of state ownership has an indirect and negative effect on the governance of state enterprises, resulting in a negative impact of corporate governance on the audit. The results of this study imply that in order to reduce the potential for audit findings, the steps that need to be taken by the government gradually are to reduce the state ownership portion of SOEs, especially by privatization through stock offerings on the capital market and encouraging the implementation good governance in SOEs.
Increasing the concentration of ownership and control of public companies in Indonesia is more likely to increase the likelihood of earnings management practices through tax avoidance.

This study aims to develop a fraud disclosure model for corruption cases in the local government environment in Sulawesi through forensic accounting and investigative audits with internal auditor skepticism as moderating. Forensic accounting and investigative auditing are a series of relationships in the examination of fraud. Fraud becomes the main object that is fought in forensic accounting and is proven in investigative audits. This research was conducted by distributing questionnaires to all auditors at Finance and Development Supervisory Agency or Badan Pengawasan Keuangan dan Pembangunan (BPKP), Audit Board of the Republic of Indonesia or Badan Pemeriksa Keuangan (BPK), and internal auditors at Social Security Agency or Badan Penyelenggara Jaminan Sosial Kesehatan (BPJS Kesehatan) throughout Indonesia. The number of respondents whose opinions can be used for this study amounted to 118 questionnaires. The results showed that forensic accounting can reduce the level of disclosure of fraud. The results of other research studies also show that good investigative audit practices by auditors can reduce the level of fraud disclosure. Auditor skepticism in auditing practices can strengthen the forensic accounting relationship which results in a reduced level of fraud disclosure and investigative audit relationships which results in a reduced level of fraud disclosure.
