Research population includes 131 listed firms in Tehran Securities & Exchange over the period March 2012 till March 2020. Research Hypotheses analyzed using multivariate binary logit regression models based on firm-year observations. Findings showed that more earnings management due to misstatement in clients’ financial reporting lead to increase the likelihood of issuance the modified opinion by auditors. Also, as the prior period adjustments due to errors in clients’financial reporting increase, the likelihood of issuance the modified audit opinion has increased. In addition, the evidence suggested that the higher level of abnormal accruals and abnormal real activities to manage earnings has strengthened the positive relationship between annual adjustments and likelihood of issuance modified audit opinion. In fact, annual adjustments and earnings management as consequences of errors and misstatement in clients' financial reporting expose auditors to litigation risk, which is expected to result in more auditors effort and audit quality in risk-based audit process. In such circumstances, the auditors act conservatively in order to reduce the potential litigation risk and respond by issuance the modified audit opinion. Manuscript profile
