Further Evidence On The Ability Of Fifo And Lifo Earnings To Predict Operating Cash Flows: An Industry Specific Analysis, Brock Murdoch, Bruce Dehning, Paul Krause
Further Evidence On The Ability Of Fifo And Lifo Earnings To Predict Operating Cash Flows: An Industry Specific Analysis, Brock Murdoch, Bruce Dehning, Paul Krause
Accounting Faculty Articles and Research
The continuing convergence of U.S. GAAP with International Accounting Standards has brought into question the future use of the LIFO inventory method in the U.S. Since the Financial Accounting Standards Board (2010) has stipulated that earnings should aid investors and creditors in their quest to forecast future cash flows to the enterprise, this research examines whether FIFO earnings or LIFO earnings is preferable, for this purpose, as an aid to ex ante operating cash flow itself,over a three-year forecast horizon. We conclude that ex ante operating cash flows are quite useful in forecasting operating cash flows across industries for up …

An Examination Of Personal Values And Value Systems Of Chinese And U.S. Business Students, Don E. Giacomino, Xin Li, Michael D. Akers
Accounting Faculty Research and Publications
Using the Rokeach Value Survey and the Musser and Orke typology this paper examines the personal values and value systems of business students in China and compares the results with the results of a recent study that used similar methodology to examine the values and value systems of U.S. students. The study also examines the differences in values and value systems of the Chinese students by gender and by major. While there are few differences for the Chinese students by gender, our findings show several differences in the rankings of values by the Chinese and U.S. students as well as …

Proposed Financial Statement Changes By The Fasb-Iasb: Reactions From Chinese Accounting Majors, Don E. Giacomino, Xin Li, Michael D. Akers
Accounting Faculty Research and Publications
Based on concerns regarding the usefulness of the current format of the financial statements to assist users in making decisions and as part of the convergence efforts of the IAS and GAAP, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) and the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) created a joint project (2004) on financial statement presentation which resulted in the publication of their joint Discussion Paper, Preliminary View on Financial Statement Presentation. Prior research has examined the response of academics, preparers (CPAs) and US accounting students (future preparers). This paper extends that research by examining the reaction of Chinese accounting students, future …
The Impact Of Technology On Management Control: Degradation, Empowerment, Or Technology Dominance?, Joseph Canada
The Impact Of Technology On Management Control: Degradation, Empowerment, Or Technology Dominance?, Joseph Canada
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
The evolution of technology brings with it the evolution of business processes. Without a doubt, technology changes how work is performed. At first glance, workplace technology appears to be a great boon to society. However, research presents opposing views on how workplace technologies impact the individual. One perspective argues that organizations utilize technology to redesign work processes, such that the worker requires less skill, autonomy, and compensation. The opposing perspective argues that organizations utilize technology to empower employees to improve efficiency and profits. This dissertation consists of three interrelated studies examining workplace technology’s impact on decision makers. The first study …
Regulation And The Auditing Profession, Alexey Lyubimov
Regulation And The Auditing Profession, Alexey Lyubimov
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
The dissertation consists of three studies examining three different regulatory issues that affect the auditing profession. The first study has two main foci. First, the study investigates the impact of Sarbanes-Oxley Act (SOX) on the Big 4 fee premium. Second, the study investigates the relationship between the size of an audit client and annual fee change. The results show that in the post-SOX environment, clients of non-Big 4 firms have experienced greater increases in audit fees than the clients of the Big 4 firms, resulting in a diminishing Big 4 premium. This is consistent with the notion that non-Big 4 …
The Diffusion Of Digital Dashboards: An Examination Of Dashboard Utilization And The Managerial Decision Environment, Jeffrey Reinking
The Diffusion Of Digital Dashboards: An Examination Of Dashboard Utilization And The Managerial Decision Environment, Jeffrey Reinking
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
This dissertation consists of three related studies examining the diffusion of digital dashboard technology throughout today’s organizations. Dashboards, once reserved for the executive level, are now available to managers at the lower levels of the organization. For these managers, dashboards have become an integral part of their work life to support their decision environment, to provide consistency in measures, to monitor performance, and to communicate information throughout the organization. Prior research in the practice literature has shown that dashboards improve managerial performance and organizational performance as well as communicate organizational goals and objectives; however, empirical research has not been conducted …
The Effect On Earnings Persistence And The Market's Reaction To The Alignment Of Employee And Customer Relations With Competitive Strategy, Robert Stephen Hogan
The Effect On Earnings Persistence And The Market's Reaction To The Alignment Of Employee And Customer Relations With Competitive Strategy, Robert Stephen Hogan
LSU Doctoral Dissertations
Prior literature suggests that a focus on employee and customer relations alone improves financial performance. However, I find that a focus on employee and customer relations alone is not related to higher earnings persistence, but rather I hypothesize and find that the alignment of employee and customer relations with competitive strategy is related to higher earnings persistence. I further explore this relation by examining the contextual environment in which the firm operates. I consider the moderating variables of firm size, leverage, growth, and corporate governance and find that alignment impacts the persistence of earnings for leverage and governance but not …
Income Classification Shifting And Financial Analysts’ Forecasts, Shanshan Pan
Income Classification Shifting And Financial Analysts’ Forecasts, Shanshan Pan
LSU Doctoral Dissertations
Income classification shifting involves opportunistically misclassifying core expenses into nonrecurring items in order to boost core earnings. Recent studies have documented large sample evidence of its existence (e.g. McVay 2006; Fan et al.,2010; Barua et al.,2010). Managers engage in income classification shifting because they believe the market in general and financial analysts in particular focus on core earnings. If financial analysts are experts in forecasting permanent earnings, they should be expected to identify reported core earnings that have been inflated through classification shifting and revise their future earnings forecast accordingly. Consistent with my prediction, I find that given the same …

Busy Boards, Cash Holdings And Corporate Liquidity: Evidence From Uk Panel Data, Valentina Tarkovska
Busy Boards, Cash Holdings And Corporate Liquidity: Evidence From Uk Panel Data, Valentina Tarkovska
Conference papers
This study examines the effect of board busyness on corporate cash holdings. We offer new insights by evaluating two conflicting views regarding the quality of service that busy directors provide to corporate boards and their impact on decision making. One view is that directors who simultaneously serve on multiple boards improve board decision making ability as they have better experience and bu siness connections (reputational effect).The opposite view is that directors with multiple seats are “too busy to mind the business”, which creates serious agency problems and leads into suboptimal corporate decisions(busyness effect). We analyse a large sample of UK …

A Descriptive Study Of Factors Associated With The Internal Audit Function Having An Impact: Comparisons Between Organizations In A Developed And An Emerging Economy, Audrey A. Gramling, Irem Nuhoglu, David A. Wood
A Descriptive Study Of Factors Associated With The Internal Audit Function Having An Impact: Comparisons Between Organizations In A Developed And An Emerging Economy, Audrey A. Gramling, Irem Nuhoglu, David A. Wood
Faculty Publications
An internal audit function (IAF) should positively impact financial reporting and governance, and add value to its organization. We provide evidence on IAF factors (i.e., characteristics, activities, work areas) associated with these types of impact and whether these factors, and their influence on various impacts, differ between a developed and an emerging economy (i.e., US, Turkey). Factors positively associated with financial reporting in the US are assurance activities, control work, and competence; in Turkey, significant factors are governance work and competence. For governance, we find that the factors positively associated with it in the US include assurance activities, governance work, …
Can Short Restrictions Actually Increase Informed Short Selling?, Adam C. Kolasinski, Adam Reed, Jacob Thornock
Can Short Restrictions Actually Increase Informed Short Selling?, Adam C. Kolasinski, Adam Reed, Jacob Thornock
Faculty Publications
We use the 2008 short selling regulations to test whether short sale restrictions can increase informed short selling. For the preborrow requirement, we find more negative price reactions to short interest announcements though no reliable increase in the price impact of short sales volume. For the stocks with banned short sales, we find an increase in the price impact of short sale volume though no reliable change in the price reaction to short interest announcements. Both restrictions, however, are associated with increased informed trading. Our results suggest that short restrictions will not reduce informed short selling and may actually result …
Material Internal Control Weaknesses And Earnings Management In The Post-Sox Environment, Benjamin P. Foster, Trimbak Shastri
Material Internal Control Weaknesses And Earnings Management In The Post-Sox Environment, Benjamin P. Foster, Trimbak Shastri
Faculty and Staff Scholarship
Prior studies found that companies with internal control deficiencies incorporate abnormal accounting accruals into their financial statements. However, these studies did not consider the materiality of abnormal accruals. Abnormal accruals should be within materiality when financial statements receive clean audit opinions. When material internal control weaknesses (MICW) exist, to compensate for additional risk, auditors should apply more audit effort to gain the quantity and quality of evidence necessary to obtain a reasonable degree of assurance to support their audit reports. We find evidence of this because audit fees are significantly higher for MICW companies than those for effective internal controls …
The Impact Of Organizational Culture On Decisions To Use Comprehensive Performance Measurement Systems, Gaurav Gupta
The Impact Of Organizational Culture On Decisions To Use Comprehensive Performance Measurement Systems, Gaurav Gupta
Open Access Theses & Dissertations
Using the Contingency Approach to Management Accounting (Otley, 1980) and the Globe Study's (House et al., 2004) organizational culture model, the purpose of this dissertation is to examine the impact of organizational culture on the extent of the use of Comprehensive Performance Measurement Systems (CPMS) in Indian manufacturing organizations. The Balanced Scorecard (BSC) is used as a proxy to CPMS in this research. Using a survey methodology, data were collected from 18-28 top management and other employees in each of the 48 manufacturing organizations in India for a total of 1,126 respondents. I conducted regressions to analyze the data. I …
Consistency Between Earnings Forecasts And Stock Recommendations : The Effect Of Political Connections, Elio Alfonso
Consistency Between Earnings Forecasts And Stock Recommendations : The Effect Of Political Connections, Elio Alfonso
LSU Doctoral Dissertations
Financial analysts’ earnings forecasts are more consistent with stock recommendations when their earnings forecasts are more accurate (Loh and Mian 2006, Ertimur et al. 2007). This suggests that analysts use other information in their private valuation models in addition to earnings forecasts especially when earnings have greater uncertainty. Recent studies show that political connections are important for firm valuation and are associated with future positive returns and future positive operating performance (Faccio 2006, Cooper et al. 2010). In this study, I examine how a firm’s political connections affect stock recommendation informativeness as well as the efficiency with which analysts translate …
The Effect Of Audit Market Concentration On Audit Pricing And Audit Quality : The Role Of The Size Of The Audit Market, John Daniel Eshleman
The Effect Of Audit Market Concentration On Audit Pricing And Audit Quality : The Role Of The Size Of The Audit Market, John Daniel Eshleman
LSU Doctoral Dissertations
The GAO has recently expressed concern that audit market concentration (i.e., not client concentration) could result in greater audit fees and lower audit quality. However, the extant literature finds that local audit markets with higher concentration have lower audit fees (Numan and Willekens 2012) and fewer accounting restatements (Newton et al. 2013). In this study, I show that the effect of audit market concentration on the level of audit fees depends on the size of the audit market (i.e., the size and/or number of clients in the local geographic area). When the audit market contains fewer clients and/or those clients …
