Fraud And Error Misstatements And Auditor Liability: The Moderating Role Of The Evaluator’S Auditing Knowledge, Thanyawee Pratoomsuwan, Orapan Yolrabil Jul 2020

Fraud And Error Misstatements And Auditor Liability: The Moderating Role Of The Evaluator’S Auditing Knowledge, Thanyawee Pratoomsuwan, Orapan Yolrabil

DLSU Business & Economics Review

Although a restatement is usually assumed to result from fraudulent behavior, Plumlee and Yohn (2010) studied whether a restatement might be attributed to both errors in the corporation’s internal controls and intentional misrepresentation. Moreover, prior research supports the notion that investors, regulators, boards, and other stockholders differentiate between fraud and error (Hennes et al., 2008). This study provides a preliminary understanding of how undetected fraud and error misstatements affect auditor liability, given the same outcome severity. A 2x2 between-subject experiment was conducted using undergraduate accounting students to represent evaluators who have high levels of auditing knowledge and nonaccounting students to …

An Analysis Of Factors That Affect Audit Opinions: The Case Of The Local Government Units In The Metro Luzon Urban Beltway, Florenz C. Tugas, Maria Corazon P. Gomez, Roselle Marie A. Sacorum, Rica Angela M. Lipana, Geneva Leecea M. Barawid

DLSU Business & Economics Review

The audit is performed to give assurance to the public that financial statements are fairly presented. Accurate issuances of audit opinions show how compliant firms are to auditing standards. Receiving an unfavorable audit opinion will signal firms to improve internal control. Given this, it is important for the top management to assess the factors that can lead to misrepresentation of financial statements and result in adverse opinions. The same principle can be applied to government units and offices. With this in mind, the study was performed to investigate the influences of qualitative and quantitative factors on audit opinions received by …


Effect Of Financial Inclusion And Stability On Equality, Poverty, And Human Development: An Empirical Analysis In The Context Of South Asia, Souvik Banerjee Jul 2020

Effect Of Financial Inclusion And Stability On Equality, Poverty, And Human Development: An Empirical Analysis In The Context Of South Asia, Souvik Banerjee

DLSU Business & Economics Review

In this research endeavor, financial inclusion and its impact on three important aspects of human life (i.e., inequality, poverty, and human development) are explored in the south Asian region. Worldwide inequality is catching much attention from the academic community off late. Similarly, the extent of poverty and human development indicators of any country indicates the level of development. The penetration of the bank branch and automated teller machine (ATM) is considered as a proxy for financial inclusion. Long time-series data from 2004 to 2016 is considered for this study. This should be an important addition to the existing literature on …


Do Food Assistance And Welfare Of Rice Farmers Affect Food Security?, -- Suriani, -- Sartiyah Jul 2020

Do Food Assistance And Welfare Of Rice Farmers Affect Food Security?, -- Suriani, -- Sartiyah

DLSU Business & Economics Review

Poverty is always accompanying unmet food needs; hence it can disrupt food security. Efforts to improve food security can be made with government policy through food assistance, namely, rice for the poor and also increasing the amount of rice production from rice farmers to meet the adequacy of rice in an area. The purpose of this study is to analyze the effect of food assistance (Rastra) and farmers’ welfare on food security in terms of rice availability in Aceh-Indonesia in the short and long term. The model used is auto regression distributed lag (ARDL), and the determinant variables that are …


Auditor Information Spillovers And Company Operating Performance: Evidence From Targeted Auditor Switches, Tyler Kleppe Jul 2020

Auditor Information Spillovers And Company Operating Performance: Evidence From Targeted Auditor Switches, Tyler Kleppe

Graduate Theses and Dissertations

In this study, I examine whether companies realize operational benefits from making “targeted auditor switches” (i.e., engaging a new auditor recently dismissed by a competitor company). While prior work provides evidence consistent with companies perceiving that auditor information spillovers are costly, there is sparse extant evidence as to whether auditors actually do transfer operational information across companies. I find that companies that switch to a competitor’s former auditor realize significant subsequent improvements in operating performance, and I provide evidence that the association between targeted auditor switches and improvements in operating performance varies predictably with several across- and within-market factors. In …


An Empirical Investigation Of The Relationship Between Business Performance And Suicide In The Us, Rawayda Abdou, Damien Cassells, Jenny Berrill, Jim Hanly Jul 2020

An Empirical Investigation Of The Relationship Between Business Performance And Suicide In The Us, Rawayda Abdou, Damien Cassells, Jenny Berrill, Jim Hanly

Articles

Previous research suggests that mortality rates behave pro-cyclically with respect to economic growth, with suicides representing a notable exception that consistently increase in economic downturns. Over recent years, there is ample evidence in the literature that the working environment in the US has deteriorated significantly, suggesting that suicide rates may not necessarily behave in a counter-cyclical manner with business performance. Utilising recent suicide data, this study empirically tests the hypothesis that adverse working conditions over recent years may have resulted in a pro-cyclical relationship between business performance and suicide. Unlike previous studies, we use a stock market index, a leading …


Does Media Exposure Affect Financial Reporting Quality Through Auditors?, Steven F. Cahan, Chen Chen, Rencheng Wang Jul 2020

Does Media Exposure Affect Financial Reporting Quality Through Auditors?, Steven F. Cahan, Chen Chen, Rencheng Wang

Research Collection School Of Accountancy

We examine whether the media has an indirect corporate governance effect on financial reporting quality (FRQ) that operates through auditors. This occurs because greater media coverage can magnify an auditor's business risk by exposing the auditor to more potential litigation and reputation damage if an audit failure occurs. We use a path analysis to examine the direct and indirect channels of media corporate governance. We find a positive association between media coverage and FRQ that is mediated by audit fees, and the results are stronger for firms with greater incentives to engage in earnings manipulation. In contrast, we find no …

An Analysis Of The Effects Of Foreign Ownership On The Level Of Tax Avoidance Across Philippine Publicly Listed Firms, Ailyn A. Shi, Francis R. Concepcion, Cheri Mae R. Laguinday, Trisha Amber T. Ong Hian Huy, Angelo A. Unite

DLSU Business & Economics Review

Tax avoidance schemes used by firms to lessen their tax burden have long attracted widespread concern in the Philippines, where poor tax collection due to tax leakages has contributed to chronic fiscal deficits in the country. In this regard, corporate governance mechanisms, such as the firm’s ownership structure, play a significant role in ensuring that management acts ethically and in the best interest of the firm’s owners. In this study, we examine the effect of foreign ownership on corporate tax avoidance for non-financial firms listed in the Philippine Stock Exchange (PSE) from 2009 to 2015. Using three different measures of …

Penalties And Some Counterfactuals To Beauty Premium: Evidence From A Job Search Simulation Experiment, Luisito C. Abueg, Patricia Gene O. Hubilla, Francheska M. Lozano, Patricia Isabel L. Valdivieso, Melissa Marri S. Valencia

DLSU Business & Economics Review

By utilizing Heckman’s two-stage selection model, this paper attempts to establish correlates between an individual’s physical attractiveness and the employer’s hiring decisions and wage allocations in an experimental labor market. Undergraduate students from De La Salle University Manila represented the sample for applicants. The findings show that, first, beauty premium is lower for men—more physically attractive male candidates have lower chances of getting hired, and subsequently acquire lower wages than more physically attractive women. Second, beauty premium does not differ between the sales and finance occupations. Third, the relationship between beauty and hiring probability comes from the employer’s personal bias, …


Mutual Fund Fees Under An Oligopolistic Distribution Channel: Evidence From Korea, Kang Baek, Young S. Park Jul 2020

Mutual Fund Fees Under An Oligopolistic Distribution Channel: Evidence From Korea, Kang Baek, Young S. Park

DLSU Business & Economics Review

This study analyzes whether, under oligopolistic distribution channels, mutual fund fees are primarily determined by a distribution company’s transaction-specific variables. The results empirically demonstrate that the intensity of market competition influences determinants. Through analyses at the firm level, this study demonstrates that the characteristics of an oligopolistic structure, and particularly the financial segments and scales of fund distributors, are important determinants of mutual fund fees during a collusive period. It finds that subsequent to the enforcement of pro-competitive policies, fees become more sensitive to market discipline and distributors’ transactional characteristics, particularly to sales concentration.


Effect Of Advertising Expenditure On Firm Performance Of Filipino Corporations: A Two-Stage Least Squares Analysis, Safa D. Manala-O, Ringgold P. Atienza Jul 2020

Effect Of Advertising Expenditure On Firm Performance Of Filipino Corporations: A Two-Stage Least Squares Analysis, Safa D. Manala-O, Ringgold P. Atienza

DLSU Business & Economics Review

Advertising is commonly thought to lead to improved firm performance, but literature has been divided on the effect of advertising on revenue and profitability so far. Some studies confirm a link between these three variables, but others do not. Studies that negate a relationship between advertising expenditure and firm performance are of interest, particularly because advertising can be very expensive for a company. Thus, this study sought to examine the relationship between advertising expenditure, revenue, and net profit of 57 corporations listed in the Philippine Stock Exchange (PSE) for 10 years, from 2008 to 2017. Using 2SLS regression analysis on …

Examining Chronic And Transient Poverty Using The Community-Based Monitoring System (Cbms) Data: The Case Of The Municipality Of Orion, Alellie Borel Sobreviñas

DLSU Business & Economics Review

With poverty reduction as the government’s primary goal, monitoring the poverty situation of households or individuals is deemed necessary. In the Philippines, several local government units (LGUs) have adopted the Community-Based Monitoring System (CBMS) as a local poverty monitoring tool. This study used the constructed CBMS panel data for the municipality of Orion in Bataan province covering the period 2006, 2009, and 2012 to identify chronic and transient poor households based on the duration of poverty. A comparison between chronic and transient poor households revealed differences in their characteristics. For instance, chronic poor were generally found to have bigger household …


The Philippine Ukay-Ukay Culture As Sustainable Fashion, Hazel T. Biana Jul 2020

The Philippine Ukay-Ukay Culture As Sustainable Fashion, Hazel T. Biana

DLSU Business & Economics Review

Wang et al. (2019) proposed a sustainable fashion index model that aims to measure the sustainability of fashion companies. The model is interesting because of its underlying theory, which provides necessary dimensions and variables that make the fashion industry and its activities sustainable. This paper aims to employ these dimensions and variables as theoretical concepts to evaluate the sustainability of Philippine ukay-ukay culture. Ukay-ukay is a term used both for the act of shopping by digging up piles of used or pre-loved clothes until one makes a good find. It also refers to retailers of secondhand clothes and accessories in …

The Effect Of Concentrated Ownership On Bank Profitability In Indonesia, Michelle Priscilla Amanda, Serafina Lam, Rinaningsih ., Yang Elvi Adelina

Jurnal Akuntansi dan Keuangan Indonesia

This paper examines the association between concentrated ownership and the profitability of banks in Indonesia during the period from 2012 to 2018 with a total sample of 93 banks or 651 observations. This study applies the Random Effect regression method, and reveals a non-significant association between concentrated ownership and bank profitability as measured by ROA and ROE. It indicates that a majority of shareholders tend to use their power to exploit minority shareholders, which can also strengthen the monitoring effect. However, the regression also indicates that there is a significant non-linear relationship between concentrated ownership and profitability when measured by …
