Walden Dissertations and Doctoral Studies

Inadequate strategies to detect and prevent occupational fraud may adversely affect nonprofit organizations. Nonprofit leaders are concerned about occupational fraud because it increases the risk of organizational failure. Guided by the fraud triangle theory, the purpose of this qualitative single-case study was to explore techniques some nonprofit organizational leaders used to detect and prevent occupational fraud. The participants for this study were three senior leaders in a nonprofit organization located in the central part of the U.S. state of Alabama who successfully implemented strategies for detecting and preventing occupational fraud.

Informativeness Of Key Audit Matters: Evidence From China, Beng Wee Goh, Kiat Bee Jimmy Lee, Dan Li, Muzhi Wang

Research Collection School Of Accountancy

This study examines whether the key audit matters (KAMs) disclosed in expanded audit reports as a part of recent regulatory reforms are informative for investors in an emerging economy setting. Using the recent adoption of expanded audit reports for firms listed exclusively in Mainland China, we find robust evidence that the abnormal trading volume and earnings response coefficients (ERCs) are higher and that stock price synchronicity is lower during the postadoption than preadoption period. In additional tests, we find evidence that KAMs are more informative for non-state-owned enterprises (non-SOEs), smaller firms, and firms with a smaller analyst following. Finally, we …

Buy Now Pay (Pain?) Later, Ed Dehaan, Jungbae Kim, Ben Lourie, Chenqi Zhu

Research Collection School Of Accountancy

“Buy-now-pay-later” (BNPL) is a relatively unregulated FinTech innovation that provides consumers with easy access to credit for retail purchases. BNPL spending is projected to reach $1 trillion by 2025, but we know little about its effects. Using banking data for10.6 million U.S. consumers, we investigate the effects of BNPL on leading indicators of users’ financial health. We find that new BNPL users experience rapid increases in bank overdraft charges and credit card interest and fees compared with nonusers, consistent with BNPL facilitating overborrowing. An instrumental variable exploiting consumers’ pre-BNPL shopping habits bolsters our inferences. Our results inform regulatory investigations into …

Do Audit Firms Discount Initial Full‐Year Audit Engagements With Multiple Potential Successor Auditors?, Ming (Mike) Yuan

Accounting Faculty Publications

Auditing theory predicts fee discounting when multiple potential successor auditors bid for the client. However, the empirical evidence on this issue varies as more recent research attributes prior evidence of fee discounting to measurement errors related to audit fees’ partial-year reporting. We argue that the mixed results of previous literature are partially attributable to a failure to identify competitive auditor changes. We use U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) disclosures of audit firm changes to identify cases with multiple potential successor auditors, which suggests more competition for the client. We compare each disclosing firm's audit fees between the first year …

Analysis Of Key Audit Matters Disclosures In Financial Reporting: The First Evidence From Indonesia, Gamal Batara, Jalaluddin Jalaluddin, M. Rizal Yahya

Journal of Accounting Auditing and Business

The research reports on matters published in 806 statutory audit reports of listed companies in 2022. This study provides the first description of KAMs disclosure by Indonesian public companies.

Females In Corporate Board Diversity And Its Impact On Earnings Quality, Kenny Ardillah

Journal of Accounting Auditing and Business

Earnings quality is formed on corporate governance. The company's internal governance mechanism consists of the president director, the finance director, the board of directors, commissioners, and the audit committee. However, there is still a lack of studies exploring the relationship between female in-board diversity and earnings quality, especially in Indonesia. It is because Indonesia has a unique corporate governance system, even though Indonesia follows a corporate governance system on the European continent, namely the two-tier boards. This study aims to determine the influence of female president directors, female finance directors, female board of directors, female board of commissioners, and female …

The Influence Of Good Corporate Governance On Firm Value With Financial Performance As A Moderation, Arisky Andrinaldo, Indrawati Mara Kesuma, Randi Alfarizi

Journal of Accounting Auditing and Business

This study investigates the direct and moderating effects of various corporate governance factors on firm value. The direct effect analysis reveals that financial performance alone does not significantly influence firm value, whereas the roles of independent commissioners and independent directors are crucial, significantly enhancing firm value through improved governance and oversight capabilities. Conversely, the direct impact of independent audits on firm value is found to be non-significant, suggesting their influence is more indirect, supporting a trustworthy financial environment. The moderating effect analysis underscores the importance of corporate governance in leveraging financial performance to enhance firm value. Independent commissioners, directors, and …

The Examination Of The Mathematical Calculation On Premium Reserve Modifications For Endowment-Life Insurance Products, Farisa Salwa Fatimah, Debrina Ferezagia, Wira Darmiza

Jurnal Administrasi Bisnis Terapan

Insurance offers numerous advantages in managing the diverse dangers it encounters. The level of compensation provided is contingent upon the magnitude of the premium remitted. A fraction of the premium collected by the company must be allocated as a premium reserve to ensure that the company will not have any challenges in settling future claims. The calculation of premium reserves is performed through the utilization of prospective and retrospective reserve methods, which rely on net premiums as the foundation for the computation. The premium reserve calculation approach employs both the Canadian and Full Preliminary Term methodologies. The objective of this …

Free Cash Flows And Price Momentum, Jiajia Fu, Fangming Xu, Cheng Zeng, Lily Zheng

School of Accountancy Faculty Publications

This study investigates the role of free cash flows and (cross-sectional and time-series) price momentum in predicting future stock returns. Past returns and free cash flows each positively predict future stock returns after controlling for the other, suggesting that cash flows and momentum both contain valuable and distinctive information about future stock returns. A strategy of buying past winners with high free cash flows and shorting past losers with low free cash flows significantly outperforms the traditional momentum trading strategy. The enhanced performance is not sensitive to investor sentiment, time variations, or transaction costs. Further analysis shows that the incremental …

DLSU Business & Economics Review

This study was conducted to examine the impact of tax compliance and earnings quality, in addition to current financial performance, in predicting future earnings. Generally, future earnings are predicted using current earnings and their interactions with stock prices. The future earnings response coefficient is used by investors to measure it. Several previous studies have found different results on the effect of financial performance on future earnings, so further research is needed to develop any factors that affect future earnings.

Accounting For The Eu Green Taxonomy: Exploring Its Concept, Data And Analytics, Lucia Alessi, Theodor Florian Cojoianu, Andreas G. F. Hoepner, Giovanna Michelon

Research Collection College of Integrative Studies

The European Union's Green Taxonomy has been used by corporations to account for and disclose hundreds of billions of Euros in capital expenditures. The aim of the taxonomy is to set a common and clear definition about which economic activities are most needed for the transition to a low-carbon economy, in line with the objectives of the European Green Deal. It is essential that academic research explores (a) to what extent the taxonomy is clearly understood, (b) if it impacts financial, environmental and societal outcomes, and (c) how it can be advanced. We review the nascent literature on this new …
