Competence has a positive and significant effect on the ability to detect fraud or in other words, the higher the auditor's competence, the higher the auditor's ability to detect fraud. Time budget pressure has a negative and significant effect on the ability to detect fraud or in other words, the higher the time budget pressure given by the client to the auditor, the lower the auditor's ability to detect fraud.
