During the last few years, global financial companies and investment banks have taken billions of dollars in write-downs owing to exposure in the subprime lending market. Lack of risk function visibility, insufficient communication of risks to top management, and siloed risk approaches have been cited as reasons for these failures. New York University finance professor Nouriel Roubini, one of the few who predicted the crisis, famously observed at the World Economic Forum's 2009 Davos Summit that risk cannot be priced correctly "when the opacity and lack of transparency of financial firms and new instruments lead to unpriceable uncertainty rather than …

The Association Between Accounting Students' Lone Wolf Tendencies And Their Perceptions, Preferences And Performance Outcomes In Team Projects,

The Association Between Accounting Students' Lone Wolf Tendencies And Their Perceptions, Preferences And Performance Outcomes In Team Projects, Premila Gowri-Shankar, Jean Lin Seow
Research Collection School Of Accountancy
In this study we examine the association between accounting students’ lone wolf tendencies and their perceptions of the usefulness of team work, team interaction behaviors, and team performance. While prior studies find that students generally perceive positive benefits from engaging in team work, our study finds that students with greater lone wolf tendencies perceive fewer benefits from engaging in team work. We also find that during team interactions, teams with a greater proportion of students with higher lone wolf tendencies experience less team commitment and team leadership. Further, such teams rate the outcome of their project negatively, although, there is …

Audit Fees: To Disclose Or Not To Disclose?,

Singapore Management University
Audit Fees: To Disclose Or Not To Disclose?, Teng Aun Khoo, Soo Chiat Hwang
Research Collection School Of Accountancy
The authors argue that the disclosure of audit fees can provide a more level playing field in Singapore, and would also be consistent with the other major capital markets in the world. Auditors' independence is the cornerstone of the auditing profession, because without auditor's independence investors would not be able to rely on the so-called "audited" financial statements. Currently in Singapore, audit-fee disclosure is not mandatory except for banks as stipulated by the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS).
The Roles That Forecast Surprise And Forecast Error Play In Determining Management Forecast Precision,

The Roles That Forecast Surprise And Forecast Error Play In Determining Management Forecast Precision, Jong-Hag Choi, Linda A. Myers, Yoonseok Zang, David A. Ziebart
Research Collection School Of Accountancy
Studying the determinants of management forecast precision is important because a better understanding of the factors affecting management’s choice of forecast precision can provide investors and other users with cues about the characteristics of the information contained in the forecasts. In addition, as regulators assess the regulation of voluntary management disclosures, they need to better understand how managers choose among forecast precision disclosure alternatives. Using 16,872 management earnings forecasts collected from 1995 through 2004, we provide strong evidence that forecast precision is negatively associated with the magnitude of the forecast surprise and that this negative association is stronger when the …

The Effect Of Internal Control Weakness Under Section 404 Of The Sarbanes-Oxley Act On Audit Fees, Jong-Hag Choi, Jeong-Bon Kim, Soo Young Kwon, Yoonseok Zang
Research Collection School Of Accountancy
In this paper, we investigate the effect of the enactment of the SarbanesOxleyAct (SOX) in 2002 on audit pricing, using a sample of 252 firms that received an “Ineffective” audit opinion and other firms that received cleanaudit opinion on the effectiveness of the internal control over financial reportingunder Section 404 of SOX. Our analyses show the following. First,we find that auditors charge significantly higher audit fees for all firms inthe post-SOX period than in the pre-SOX period. Second, we find that auditors’opinions on the weakness in internal control (WIC) are positively associatedwith audit fees, and that the positive association between …
Direct And Indirect Effects Of Internal Control Weakness And External Audit Effort On Accruals Quality: Evidence From A Unique Canadian Regulatory Setting,

Direct And Indirect Effects Of Internal Control Weakness And External Audit Effort On Accruals Quality: Evidence From A Unique Canadian Regulatory Setting, Hai Lu, Gordon D Richardson, Steven Salterio
Research Collection School Of Accountancy
Public disclosure about effectiveness of internal control systems is subject to much controversy in Canada, resulting in Canadian disclosures being made in Management Discussion and Analysis (MD&A). These disclosures are provided to investors without a definition of the weaknesses to be reported, without implementation effectiveness testing, no direct management certification and no external audit of such disclosures. Though the cost of such SOX North disclosures are lower than in the U.S setting, the credibility of these disclosures is far from assured, posing an important empirical issue for regulators interested in the cost versus benefit trade-off of various disclosure regimes. We …

Enron Vs. General Electric: Is Earnings Management Worth The Risk?, Brett Robertson
Honors Theses
The main objective of this paper is to provide a review on why companies use earnings management and the benefits and consequences as a result. There is a large grey area between aggressive accounting and outright fraud and this paper focuses on narrowing down that area so companies know when to stop. General Electric is an example of a company that used earnings management to its advantage because they used it cautiously. However, there is the other side where earnings management started off small and ended up spiraling out of control like with Enron. This paper will examine both how …

Unrelated Business Income Taxes: What The Federal Courts Have Said, Barry Long
Honors Theses
Several issues impact the management of accounting for large not-for-profit organizations that would not arise normally in a regular for-profit corporation. These issues vary widely from how much annual salary the executives rightfully deserve as compensation to the way the organization raises funds for its day-to-day activities. Slightly less common, but still very important, is the issue of taxes. Yes, not-for-profit corporations have to pay taxes, but only on certain forms of revenue. In many instances, large not-for-profit corporations operate similar to a for-profit firm. The money not-for-profits have to pay tax on falls under the Internal Revenue Code sections …
