   Introduction

This information can help financial users in decision making about business entity, but because of asymmetric information between manager and stockholder also the existence of the conflict of interest between them, it is possible the reliability of financial information to become problematic. In order to solve this problem, auditing is tools that make a financial statement to be reliable and enhance the quality of financial information.
Defond and jiang (2016) believe that abnormal audit fee indicates the extra future effort of auditor which may increase the quality of accounting information. Also, it can indicate future litigation risks that relate to the low quality of accounting information.
Literature review shows there are different findings about the relationship between abnormal audit fee and financial reporting quality; therefore, this research intend to investigate about the relationship between abnormal audit fee and financial reporting quality in detail in the emergency market like Tehran Stock Exchange (TSE(.
