واقع المحاسبة الجزائرية في ظل بيئة الأعمال الدولية., زوهـري جليلـة
Muthanna Journal of Administrative and Economics Sciences
من خلال هذا المقال سنحاول إبراز أهم الخصائص التي ميزت بيئة الأعمال الدولية، وذلك من حيث الاختلافات التي أصبحت تميز المجال المحاسبي بين الدول، كما سنوضح بعض المفاهيم الخاصة بكل من التوحيد والتوافق المحاسبي من حيث إظهار الفرق بين هذين المصطلحين، وكذا الأهداف والمبررات والمعوقات التي تواجه تطبيق وتنفيذ هذين الإستراتيجيتين كنموذج دولي يساعد في التقليل من التباينات المحاسبية والمالية بين الدول.وفي هذا الإطار سندرج المحاولة الجزائرية الرامية إلى تحقيق الإصلاح المحاسبي مع تبيان لأهم النقائص التي ميزت المخطط المحاسبي الوطني وأهم ما جاء به النظام المحاسبي المالي الجديد.

Muthanna Journal of Administrative and Economics Sciences
يتوقف نجاح الدولة في اختيار نظامها الضريبي على معرفة كاملة بأوضاع المجتمع الاقتصادية والاجتماعية والسياسية والأهداف التي يسعى إلى تحقيقها، ومن هذا المنطلق تحاول الدراسات الضريبية الارتقاء بالعمل الضريبي على أكمل وجه عن طريق استخدام الأساليب العلمية الحديثة التي تنعكس إيجاباً على عملية التحاسب الضريبي ، وتقديم أفضل الخدمات للمكلفين بدفع الضريبة، ومنها نظام التقدير الذاتي، والذي بموجبه يقوم دافعي الضرائب بإعداد حساباتهم الختامية وتقديمها مع نماذج معينة تعدها الإدارة الضريبية ، ومن ثم تسديد مبلغ الضريبة المترتبة بذمتهم بشكل مباشر وفق الدخل الذي قام بتحديده المكلف. ويقترن هذا الأسلوب وجود نظام تدقيقي فعال يوضع من قبل الإدارة الضريبية يتيح …

أثر برامج الخصخصة على مؤشرات التنمية الإقتصادية في دول عالم الجنوب, حيدر اسماعيل صالح
Muthanna Journal of Administrative and Economics Sciences
بعد مرور ما يقارب من ثلاثة عقود من الزمان لمسيرة برامج الخصخصة عالمياً وتعدد وجهات النظر بين مؤيد ومعارض لتلك السياسات، اختلفت الاثار التي تركتها تلك البرامج من ناحية المكاسب والآثار الاجتماعية من دولة الى اخرى والتي تتوقف على جملة من السياسات التي يجب على الدولة ان تنتهجها ومن ابرزها تعزيز المنافسة ووضع الاطار التنظيمي الخاص بمنع الكيانات الاحتكارية وأساليب بيع المؤسسات العامة التي لابد ان تتسم بالشفافية، بالإضافة الى تصميم البرامج الخاصة بتعويض الخاسرين وفي تهيئة الرأي العام بالشكل الذي يمكنه من تقبل تلك العملية اقتصادياً واجتماعياً بعد عقود طويلة من سيطرة الدولة على النشاط الاقتصادي، كما ان ايجاد …

Are Investors' Corporate Site Visits Informative?, Qiang Cheng, Fei Du, Xin Wang, Yutao Wang
Research Collection School Of Accountancy
Corporate site visit is an important type of investors’ information acquisition activities, but its usefulness is not well understood in the literature, partially due to the lack of data. Using a unique dataset of corporate site visits in China, we analyze the information content and the determinants of corporate site visits. Our main findings are as follows. First, we document a significant market reaction to corporate site visits and the market reaction is stronger for group visits, for visits conducted by mutual fund managers, for visits covering firm-specific topics, and for firms with poorer information environment. Second, we find that …

Tax Aggressiveness And Auditor Resignation, Yoonseok Zang, Beng Wee Goh, Chee Yeow Lim, Terry Shevlin
Research Collection School Of Accountancy
We examine the relation between client tax aggressiveness and auditor‟s resignation decision. Consistent with the agency view of tax avoidance which suggests that client tax aggressiveness can increase litigation and reputational risk to auditors and increase the potential conflict with managers, we find a positive association between our proxies for tax aggressiveness and the likelihood that an auditor resigns from an audit engagement. Further, this association is stronger when external monitoring of the client firm is less effective, when there is greater potential for agency problems in the client firm, and when the economic importance of the fees received from …

Boise State On Business: These Tools Can Help Make The Most Of Profit And Loss Data, Michael Lee, Michael Wright
Accountancy Faculty Publications and Presentations
Companies invest heavily in creating the traditional profit and loss statement because it is a periodic requirement that measures business performance. The problem is that management is framed into thinking about summarized information, routine reporting and often irrelevant historical performance. Rather than treat it like a mandatory reporting necessity, a periodic photograph of the past that reminds them of what once was, we suggest that companies exploit this versatile tool by adding our three applications that will provide insights into what can be.
Impact Of Adoption Of Ifrs 8 On Quality Of Financial Reporting Of Foreign Companies Listed On U.S. Securities Exchanges, Qiqi Li

Does Regulatory Scrutiny Change Investment Behavior? Evidence Of Suboptimal Portfolio Rebalancing After The Financial Crisis, Willie Dion Reddic
Does Regulatory Scrutiny Change Investment Behavior? Evidence Of Suboptimal Portfolio Rebalancing After The Financial Crisis, Willie Dion Reddic
Business Administration - Dissertations
Insurers that show losses are expected to sell tax-free securities and replace them with taxable securities since they can no longer benefit from tax savings. However, rebalancing these portfolios after the financial crisis would entail recognizing additional losses during a time period when their financial performance was under stress and their industry was under increased scrutiny. I examine portfolio rebalancing behavior using the period after the financial crisis as a proxy for increased regulatory scrutiny. I predict and find that insurers with losses subsequent to the financial crisis were less likely to increase their ratio of taxable/nontaxable securities. Insurers may …
Going Green In The Coffee Business: A Stock Market Perspective, Jeffrey Spiletic
Going Green In The Coffee Business: A Stock Market Perspective, Jeffrey Spiletic
Accounting
Concern for the environment has been freely expressed by many individuals across the globe. Research has shown that customers, employees, and stockholders are more trustworthy of a company that practices socially responsible behavior. This paper will examine whether investors will prefer to invest in a company that has committed itself to reducing its environment footprint over a company that has done little or nothing to reduce its environmental impact. This will be done by comparing and contrasting the beta coefficients, share price movement, and the price to earnings ratio of two companies that differ in their attitude towards the environment. …
Does Going Green Mean Losing Green? Bank Of America Vs Jpmorgan Chase, Heather Goldstein
Does Going Green Mean Losing Green? Bank Of America Vs Jpmorgan Chase, Heather Goldstein
Accounting
This research thesis is an investigation into whether companies implementing a “going green” strategy will compromise their financial performance. The primary focus was on two large financial institutions, one clearly committed to going green and the other less interested in doing so: Bank of America and JPMorgan Chase. The assessment centered on specific financial measurement points for the fiscal years of 2010 and 2011. Concern for health and wellbeing of the earth is growing exponentially, however, in order to sustain the movement it is imperative that companies join the green initiatives. Nevertheless, companies must achieve specific thresholds of financial performance …
An Empirical Investigation Into The Informativeness Of Earnings, Joyce Tseng
An Empirical Investigation Into The Informativeness Of Earnings, Joyce Tseng
Accounting
Accounting earnings are widely used by investors, creditors and financial analysts as a measure of operating performance in valuing firms. However, accountants trade off relevance in decision making in favor of reliability in computing earnings. This study uses an analysis based on stock prices to examine the effectiveness of the earnings number in measuring the operating performance of a firm under different situations where it may be less accurate: when Research and Development Expense, Pension Expense, Special Items, and Income from Discontinued Operations are disproportionately large in magnitude. The results are generally consistent with my hypotheses. The results of this …

Restaurants: Do Healthy Menus Mean Positive Financial Performance? A Case Study Of Chipotle Mexican Grill, Cara N. Veneziano
Accounting
The purpose of this study is to assess the consequences of offering healthy menus versus providing historically popular fast foods. Healthier foods are better for society and being able to understand how serving healthier menus will impact the financial performance of a company is crucial. I focus my attention on Chipotle Mexican Grill since it has been making a concerted effort to provide healthier foods. I have selected McDonald’s Corporation as a benchmark comparison. My specific investigative question is: Does a healthier menu translate into greater profits. My study begins with a comparison of Chipotle and McDonald’s meal options and …
U.S. Gaap Versus Ifrs: Reconciling Revenue Recognition Principles In The Software Industry, Jason T. Babington
U.S. Gaap Versus Ifrs: Reconciling Revenue Recognition Principles In The Software Industry, Jason T. Babington
Honors Theses
In the world of financial accounting, a demand for universal standards exists. The two primary standard setting boards, The Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) and the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB), have made some strides in developing universal standards, but they still are not fully reconciled in the area of software revenue recognition. The main reason the two standards are not reconciled in the area of software revenue recognition is that a difference exists in the critical event between the standards. The critical event refers to the exact time a company recognizes revenue on its books. The purpose of the …

Will Leasing Lose Its Luster: An Analysis Of Lease Reporting Under Fas 13, Casey Gates
HIM 1990-2015
When standards for financial reporting are amended, potential for change in the appearance of financial position for companies reporting under those standards arises. Currently standards set forth by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) allow for two methods of reporting lease obligations on the financial statements. The first of these methods is the operating method, which allows lease payments to be expensed within the period they are incurred and only a decrease in cash or an increase in an account payable is recognized on the balance sheet. The second method is the capital method, which requires the present value of …
An Examination Of The Statistical Significance And Economic Implications Of Model-Based And Analyst Earnings Forecasts, Kevin Ow Yong, M. Evans, K Njoroge
An Examination Of The Statistical Significance And Economic Implications Of Model-Based And Analyst Earnings Forecasts, Kevin Ow Yong, M. Evans, K Njoroge
Research Collection School Of Accountancy
We address the demand for model-based earnings forecasts by proposing a cross-sectional model which incorporates three salient ideas. First, firm performance converges to expected levels over time; second, amounts from current financial statements are robust predictors of future performance; and third, ordinary least squares (OLS) estimation is unreliable in samples including extreme values. Accordingly, we estimate a cross-sectional earnings forecasting model based on least absolute deviations analysis (LAD), and include profitability drivers derived from financial statements as predictors. In terms of statistical significance, we find that these forecasts are more accurate than forecasts from three extant prediction models and consensus …
