Background of the Study
Financial auditing is a critical process that ensures the integrity of financial records, prevents fraud, and promotes transparency in public and private institutions. Accounting Information Systems (AIS) can support auditors by automating audit trails, providing accurate financial reports, and enhancing the efficiency of the auditing process. This study will explore the role of AIS in financial auditing in Northern Nigeria.
Statement of the Problem
Financial auditing in Northern Nigeria faces challenges such as inefficiencies in manual auditing processes, lack of real-time access to financial data, and increased risks of errors and fraud. AIS can help mitigate these issues, but the level of adoption and effectiveness in financial auditing is yet to be fully evaluated.

Aim: To assess the role of AIS in enhancing financial auditing processes in Northern Nigeria.
Objectives:
-
To evaluate the impact of AIS on the accuracy and efficiency of financial audits in Northern Nigeria.

-
To identify the challenges in adopting AIS for auditing in Northern Nigeria.
Research Questions
-
How has the implementation of AIS impacted the auditing process in Northern Nigeria?
-
To what extent does AIS improve the accuracy and efficiency of financial auditing in Northern Nigeria?
-
What are the challenges faced by auditors in adopting AIS for auditing?
Research Hypothesis
-
H₀: AIS does not significantly improve the efficiency and accuracy of financial auditing in Northern Nigeria.
