| In recent years,with the continuous development of China’s market economy,the requirements of the securities law for public interest entities and listed companies have become higher and higher,and the expectations of the public and relevant departments for CPA audits have become higher and higher,and the issue of audit quality has received great attention from relevant departments.February 2006 "Accounting Firm Quality Control Standard No.5101-Practice Quality Control" was promulgated in China and revised three times in 2011,2019,2020 and 2021.The implementation and revision of the standard has caused the public to shift from the importance of audit quality to the importance of firm quality control,and therefore,the issue of quality control of accounting firms has received attention from all parties.However,as CICPA’s supervision of CPA firms continues to increase and the related practice quality inspections deepen,CPA firms are increasingly exposed to the public on audit quality control.The frequent occurrence of penalties also makes small and medium-sized investors and others gradually lose their trust in accounting firms and even question the audit reports issued by them.Therefore,strengthening the audit quality control of accounting firms,giving full play to the role of third-party independent audit,and regaining the trust of the public has become an urgent task for accounting firms in China.Compared to simply collecting the audit quality control procedures of the firm to analyze the audit quality control strength of the whole accounting firm,it is easier to analyze the deficiencies of the project audit quality control in the face of individual audit projects,and more easily understood.Therefore,the issue of project control in audit quality control of accounting firms is well worth our in-depth study.After researching many scholars at home and abroad on the research of accounting firm audit quality,this thesis selects Mazars CPA Limited,which has been frequently regulated by the SEC in recent years,as the research object,and also takes the failure of audit quality control of Lonkey Industrial Co.,ltd.,Guangzhou in 20 typical illegal cases listed by the SEC in 2021 as a case study to specifically analyze and discuss the audit quality of accounting firms problems.The following methods are adopted: literature analysis,case analysis and data analysis.The data were searched through the official website of the Securities and Futures Commission,the websites of the Ministry of Finance and other regulatory agencies,and other means.Through

countermeasures of audit quality control of Mazars CPA Limited.In addition to making recommendations on the audit quality control of Mazars CPA Limited,this thesis can also provide reference and reference for other accounting firms with similar conditions,with a view to contributing to the improvement of the audit quality control system in the accounting firm industry and making a modest
