Specifically, it had three main objectives. The first was to investigate the internal auditing characteristics affecting potential AC. The second was to investigate the mediating effect of the internal control system on the relationship between potential and realised AC. The third was to examine the mediating effect of internal auditing processes on the relationship between realised AC and firm performance.

The results indicated that internal auditing characteristics influence potential AC, which impacted the internal control system; the internal control system mediated the relationship between potential and actual AC and realised AC influences internal auditing processes, which in turn served as a mediator between realised AC and firm performance. This study applied the AC theory to internal auditing to provide insights. The evidence also highlights the benefits of utilising information technology in internal auditing.
