Abstract

In this study, analyzed the effect of the introduction and operation of internal control system of a company on accounting information usefulness in a rapidly changing business environment. In order to conduct this study, we studied a comprehensive analysis on the usefulness of internal control and accounting information, and applied the research model to the purpose of this study. In this study, we analyzed the degree of the relationship between variables based on the discretionary accruals of the modified Jones model using the internal control evaluation index based on the components of the internal control system for China. In the empirical analysis, analyzed that the operation of internal control has a negative influence on discretionary accruals, which is a substitute for usability of accounting information. In addition, the risk management factors of the internal control system have a negative correlation with the usefulness of accounting information. The results of this study suggest that it is possible to present the positive function of internal control system to many firms where the introduction and operation of internal control is important, and to provide useful guidance in the study of the relationship between the operation of internal control and discretionary accruals for foreign company.

본 연구는 급변하는 비즈니스 환경에서 기업의 내부통제시스템의 도입과 운영이 기업의 회계정보에 미치는 영향을 분석하였다. 본 연구를 수행하기 위해 내부통제와 회계정보의 유용성에 관한 선행연구를 종합적으로 분석하여 본 연구 목적에 맞게 연구모델을 적용하여 실증분석을 실시하였다. 본 연구는 중국기업을 대상으로 내부통제시스템의 구성 요소를 중심으로 내부통제평가지수를 이용하여 수정된 존스(Jones) 모형의 재량적 발생액을 기본으로 변수간의 관계정도를 분석하였다. 실증분석에서는 내부통제의 운영이 회계정보의 유용성 대용변수인 재량적 발생액에 음의 영향관계가 있는 것으로 분석되었다. 또한 내부통제시스템의 위험관리 요인도 회계정보의 유용성에 음의 상관관계가 있는 것으로 분석되었다. 이러한 결과는 재량적 발생액이 적정하고 유의적으로 조정되어 회계정보의 유용성에 긍정적인 영향을 주고 있는 주요 요인으로 추정 할 수 있다. 본 연구 결과는 내부통제의 도입과 운용이 중요해지고 있는 많은 기업에 내부통제시스템의 긍정적인 기능을 제시할 수 있으며, 외국계 기업의 내부통제의 운용과 재량적 발생액과의 관계연구에도 유용한 지침을 제공할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.
