本研究以中國A股上市公司為研究對象，旨在探討高管薪酬與盈餘管理對於財務報導違規的影響，再進一步探討公司治理及財務報導違規會對會計師懲戒機率的影響。實證結果顯示，高管薪酬越高，財務報導違規可能性越低。高管薪酬能舒緩代理問題，使高管較不會做出傷害公司利益的違規行為。此外，本研究進一步探討盈餘管理對財務報表違規影響方面，從本研究結果可以得知，盈餘管理程度越大，越容易被監管機關認為從事財務報表違規。
在會計師懲戒方面，實證結果顯示，當公司財務報表違規可能性越高，會計師面臨的懲戒機率越高。公司治理特徵對於會計師懲戒之影響，實證結果發現，當公司高管薪酬越高，會計師面臨的懲戒機率越低。股權集中度方面，發現第一大股東持股比例越高，有利於大股東對企業的監督，會計師被懲戒的機率越低；未流通國家持有股比例越高，會影響股東、董事會和監事會對企業應有的監督效果，增加會計師被懲戒的機率。董監事方面，董事會會議次數之實證結果無法支持假說。另外，當董監事持有公司股票較多，基於對自身權益的維護會更有動機去監督管理階層，降低會計師被懲戒的機率。

In this study, We use Chinese A-share listed companies. The purpose of study is to investigate the effect of executive compensation and earnings management on financial statement frauds. And further investigate the effect of corporate governance and financial statement frauds on CPA sanctions.
The empirical evidence shows that there is significant correlation between executive compensation and financial statement frauds. The executive compensation can relieve the agency problem, so that executives are less likely to harm the company. In addition, the study to further investigate the effect of earnings management on the financial statement frauds. The greater the degree of earnings management is more likely that companies are adjudged financial statement frauds.
In the respect of CPA sanctions, empirical results show that the higher possibility of financial statement frauds, the CPAs are less likely be sanctioned. In the respect of corporate governance, The empirical results show, when the company executive compensation is higher, the CPAs are less likely be sanctioned.
In ownership concentration aspect, The higher proportion of largest shareholder holdings, the lower the probability of CPA be sanctioned. The higher the proportion of shares held by the State, the CPAs are more likely be sanctioned.
In the respect of directors and supervisors, The empirical results of the number of board meetings can not support the hypothesis. The higher proportion of shares held by directors and supervisors, the CPAs are less likely be sanctioned.
