Summary/Abstract: The purpose of this study is to analyze accounting error and accounting fraud through investigating the views of independent auditors about their responsibility in preventing error and fraud. Realization of error and fraud in accounting harms all stakeholders (i.e. individuals, society, state and companies). Hence, identifying and avoiding error and fraud requires expertise in the field. Within this context, a survey was applied on the 84 independent auditors active in business in Northeastern Anatolia (Ağrı, Ardahan, Erzurum, Iğdır and Kars), and results were analyzed and commented accordingly. In addition, factor analysis and variance analysis were applied in order to reveal the relationship between variables and factors, if any.
