Antecedents Of Modern Earnings Management Research: Income Smoothing In Literature, 1954-1965, Dale A. Buckmaster Jan 1997

Antecedents Of Modern Earnings Management Research: Income Smoothing In Literature, 1954-1965, Dale A. Buckmaster

Accounting Historians Journal

An earlier article reviewed income smoothing in literature published up through 1953. This article extends that review through 1965, the year preceding the publication of the first modern empirical earnings management studies. The focus of this article is on the 1964 Gordon article which was the stimulus for those early income smoothing studies that began to appear in 1966 and marked the beginning of modern empiricism in accounting literature. Critical reading of Gordon's article suggests that he drew upon both earlier accounting and economics literature in formulating his theory of income smoothing. Review of the relevant earlier literature demonstrates that …


Informing Historical Research In Accounting And Management: Traditions, Philosophies, And Opportunities, Lee D. Parker Jan 1997

Informing Historical Research In Accounting And Management: Traditions, Philosophies, And Opportunities, Lee D. Parker

Accounting Historians Journal

Historical research in accounting and management, hitherto largely neglected as a field of inquiry by many management and accounting researchers, has experienced a resurgence of interest and activity in research conferences and journals over the past decade. The potential lessons of the past for contemporary issues have been rediscovered, but the way forward is littered with antiquarian narratives, methodologically naive analyses, ideologically driven interpretation and ignorance of the traditions, schools and philosophy of the craft by accounting and management researchers as well as traditional and critical historians themselves. This paper offers an introduction to contributions made to the philosophies and …

Evolution Of Professional Enforcement In Texas : An Examination Of Violations And Sanctions, Mary E. Harston, Sandra T. Welch Jan 1997

Evolution Of Professional Enforcement In Texas : An Examination Of Violations And Sanctions, Mary E. Harston, Sandra T. Welch

Accounting Historians Journal

The purpose of this paper is to examine the enforcement of the Texas Rules of Professional Conduct (Rules) from 1946 to 1978. This period encompasses the early regulation of the Texas accounting profession after the passage of the Texas Public Accountancy Act (Act) in 1945. The Act and accompanying Rules remained in effect until 1979, when the Texas legislature enacted new accountancy legislation which inaugurated a more regulatory era. Results indicate that enforcement of the Rules of Conduct was a process evolving over time as both the state and professional political systems impacted the behavior of the Texas State Board …

Archival Researchers: An Endangered Species?, Richard K. Fleischman, Thomas N. Tyson Jan 1997

Archival Researchers: An Endangered Species?, Richard K. Fleischman, Thomas N. Tyson

Accounting Historians Journal

In recent years accounting historiography has been enriched by a considerable volume of debate surrounding the chronology and evolution of accounting theory and practice. By virtue of their attempts to explain the processes of change, accounting historians have become identified with a paradigm or world view that constitutes the theoretical context within which their research findings are couched. Scholars have either self-avowed their paradigmatic affiliations or have had their work so classified in the writings of others. Fleischman et al. [1996a], for example, trichotomized the field of industrial revolution cost accounting into three "schools": the Neoclassical (economic rationalist), the Foucauldian, …
