Abstract

This research aimed to explore constituents of internal control system (ICS) and appraised their effect on the financial reports' quality (QFSI) in public sector (PS) for educational area (PES) of Mekong Delta region. This study collected the primary data from 483 accountants from the PESs of varied segment of Mekong Delta region based on quota sampling scheme. Data was analysed using Cronbach's alpha reliability analysis, exploratory factor analysis (EFA), confirmatory factor analysis (CFA), and structural equation models (SEM). The SEM analysis of data collected resulted in the best fitting measurement model of impact of five parts of ICS on QFSI in PES in Mekong Delta region. Thus, the study significantly gave an empirical insight into the interrelationship among the constructs of control environment, risk assessment, control activities, information and communication and monitoring and their effects on QFSI. Taking into account of this result, academics would be enabled to further investigate on the topic while management team or responsible leaders who undertook ICS in the PES in the region of Mekong Delta could consider it as a guideline in forming suitable ICS for their organisation.
