Thinking Finance - The Comic Book, Dimitrios V. Siskos
Thinking Finance - The Comic Book, Dimitrios V. Siskos
Dimitrios V. Siskos
Thinking financially results in the best possible outcome and establishes a secure foundation for the future as an independent man. In contrast, thinking emotionally leads to short-sighted financial decisions and usually, deep regrets. However, thinking financially is not pleasant for the people around us. This comic book presents a guy, whose dream is to become an accountant. When he finally succeeds in this, he realizes that thinking financially may be effective for his boss but it is irritating for everyone else, even for his family.

Carolyn Windsor
Purpose – This paper aims to carry out a critical analysis of the proposed Australian emissions trading scheme (ETS) as a complex market solution to reduce greenhouse gases (GHGs). Specifically it seeks to examine the financial regulatory infrastructure that will more than likely oversee the Australian ETS, the same regulatory infrastructure which failed to prevent the global financial crisis.Design/methodology/approach – A critical examination of the financialisation of the atmosphere that follows the growth of the financialisation of capitalism when economic activity shifted from production and service sectors to finance. Financialisation of capitalism is supported by capitalist regulation influenced by neo-liberal …
Returns To Scale Pattern And Efficient Firm Size In The Public Accounting Industry: An Empirical Investigation, Carolyn Galantine, H. Chang, A. Thevaranjan
Returns To Scale Pattern And Efficient Firm Size In The Public Accounting Industry: An Empirical Investigation, Carolyn Galantine, H. Chang, A. Thevaranjan
Carolyn A Galantine CPA., PhD
This paper employs Data Envelopment Analysis to investigate returns to scale patterns and efficient firm size in the public accounting industry in the USA post-Sarbanes–Oxley Act. Using contemporary survey data from Accounting Today's top-100 accounting firms for the years 2003 and 2004, our results indicate that the very largest accounting (first tier) firms display constant returns to scale, whereas approximately half of the smaller (second tier) firms exhibit increasing returns to scale. These findings suggest that while very large firms are optimally scaled, there still are economic efficiencies to be gained through expanding the size of nearly half of the …

Revised Aicpacode Of Professional Conduct: Analyzing The Ethical Responsibilities For Members In Public Practice And Members In Industry, Steven Mintz
Steven Mintz
On June 1, 2014, the AICPA issued a codification of the principles, rules, interpretations, and rulings in the AICPA Code of Professional Conduct that specify which ethics provisions apply to members in public practice, members in business, and other members. A major improvement of the revised code is the creation of three sections for members in different areas of practice, to assist accounting professionals in each group to determine whether they are in violation of any of provision of the revised code. This paper explains those provisions as they apply to different members of the Institute.
Relationship Between The Audit Function And Effective Governance, Keith Duncan
Relationship Between The Audit Function And Effective Governance, Keith Duncan
Keith Duncan
Extract: As early as 1200 A.D. incorporated guilds in the United Kingdom (UK) required annual audits by a committee of members (Watts et al. 1983). The historical evidence suggests that the audit function evolved as an effective monitoring and bonding technology (Watts et al. 1983) that today consists of an international profession fulfilling regulatory requirements for assurance services. Despite auditing’s long history we might well ask, in the light of financial frauds such as Enron and the demise of their auditor Arthur Anderson, and the recent global financial crisis, does the modern audit function enhance effective governance? Is the audit …
Valuation Of Family Firms: The Limitations Of Accounting Information, Tim Hasso, Keith Duncan
Valuation Of Family Firms: The Limitations Of Accounting Information, Tim Hasso, Keith Duncan
Keith Duncan
This conceptual paper explores the extent to which reported accounting information captures unique family firm decision-making and intangible asset factors that impact financial value. We review the family firm valuation-relevant literature and identify that this body of research is predicated on the assumption that accounting information reflects the underlying reality of family firms. This research, however, fails to recognise that current accounting technology does not fully recognise the family firm factors in the book value of the firm or the implications for long-run persistence of earnings. Thus, valuation models underpinning the extant empirical research, which are predicated on reported accounting …
