The findings of this study indicate that audit firm size and audit tenure have positive and negative effects on earnings management practices, respectively. Earnings management practices have a negative effect on two proxies for company performance (ROA and ROE), but have no effect on EPS. Audit firm size has a positive and significant effect on ROA and ROE, and audit tenure has a negative effect on EPS.
