Risk In Accounting, Shyam Sunder Dec 2016

Risk In Accounting, Shyam Sunder

Shyam Sunder

Risk and uncertainty are inherent in the environment and functions of accounting. Accounting reports, systems, norms, and rules help people decide, and also determine how they decide in such environment.

Elements of accounting theory that diverge in their emphases on historical cost versus market values can be linked to the divergence in the theories of risk and decision making. This largely unrecognized link between the …

Are Regulatory Mandate And Independence Necessary For Audit Quality?, Shyam Sunder, Karim Jamal Oct 2008
