The audit is an issue addressed and applied in Public and Private Enterprises, large or small regulated and not by control bodies in the Republic of Ecuador. Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) are not obliged, do not apply, because a large percentage of them are personal, family or corporate companies, do not have an organizational structure, accounting and adequate procedures for financial and administrative control. The objective of the research is to identify the factors that determine the application of the audit in the MSEs from the determination of the voluntary demand for an audit. The descriptive, analytical and statistical method is used, through the bibliographic review and the binary linear regression to data of the last National Survey to Companies with their establishments and Microenterprise. It is shown that H1. The application of a financial and management audit is measu...

The quantification of production/service costs to determine the market price is fundamental in offering the maximum value of satisfaction. Therefore, management accounting is essential. One of the alternative tools is activity-based costing, known as ABC system, an alternative method to overcome the limitations of traditional indirect cost systems, which somehow distort the actual accounting of costs. Will exploring its development, applicability, challenges and benefits still be a possible option? This study aimed at reviewing the scientific literature produced on the activity-based costing system in recent years, identifying trends of adoption and challegnes of implementation in various manufacturing and service firms. High impact journals indexed in PubMed, Web of Science (WoS), Scopus, among others, were analyzed. The results show an increase of publications on the implementation of ...
