Abstract
This study focuses on the relationship among accounting function outsourcing, auditors’ independence and users perception of reports. The design and technique employed in data collection were cross-sectional survey design and data collection through administration of questionnaires on respondents. The Pearson correlation (r) statistics and then t-statics were used to analyse data collected and it was found that accounting function outsourcing impairs auditors’ independence and results in substandard financial reporting. Following from the findings, some recommendations were made, prominent amongst which was that, organisations should put in place adequate mechanisms to enable them carryout accounting function with recourse to their external auditors
