IDX between 2018 and 2022 served as the study's samples. The total data after removing outliers is 170 data. This
research was analyzed using descriptive statistics also logistic regression. The study's findings suggest that the size
of the client firm, audit costs, and audit delay all have an impact on audit quality. In addition, audit fees also client
company size have a positive influence on audit quality. Meanwhile, audit delay has no influence on audit quality.
