This study analyzed and verified panel data based on CSMAR (China Stock Market & Accounting Research) DB from 2002 to 2014 in order to find out significant differences of conservative accounting before and after Chinese companies adopted international accounting standards. Financial changes in companies can occur at the point of change in accounting standards, and as the difference would affect conservative accounting, it is important to understand conservatism in financial transaction. In this study, earnings per share and price, return on equity, and debt ratio were measured. As a result of analysis, conservative accounting has increased after the introduction of accounting standards, and as the debt ratio was higher, the proportion of conservative accounting was higher. Thus, at a certain point of change in accounting standards, companies apply conservative accounting in order to improve reliability in an unstable future financial environment. Therefore, this study is expected not only to practically influence business practice in changes in GAAP rules but also to provide useful guidance for future studies.

The purpose of this study is to investigate whether Big 4 accounting firms contribute to the reduction of earnings management when auditing shipping companies. Generally, it is understood that companies audited by the Big 4 accounting firms engage in minimal earnings management and maintain high audit quality. However, these factors may vary depending on industry and firm size. As a result, this study empirically analyzes the impact of audits conducted by large accounting firms on earnings management within the shipping industry. The Big 4 accounting firms, namely PwC, KPMG, Deloitte, and EY, are the focus of this research. Discretionary accruals are employed as a proxy for earnings management, with the modified J ones model and the performance matched model used to measure discretionary accruals. The analysis, which covers shipping companies listed on KOSP I from 2001 to 2023, reveals that audits conducted by the Big 4 accounting firms do not significantly influence earnings management in the shipping industry. Unlike the general case, it is evident that audits by the Big 4 accounting firms do not play a role in reducing earnings management in shipping companies. This paper is significant as it examines the role of auditors within the shipping industry and presents findings that deviate from commonly known information. Shipping companies should take into consideration that the audit quality of the Big 4 accounting firms may not always be guaranteed when selecting an auditor. Furthermore, supervisory authorities such as the Financial Supervisory Service should engage in oversight based on an accurate understanding of the audit quality offered by the Big 4 accounting firms.

We examine evidence on the relationship between firms that targeted by the Financial Supervisory Service for allegedly manipulating annual earnings and accounting quality measured by the discretionary accruals, an issue with important public policy implications. The main purpose of this paper is to empirically investigate the extent to which Korean WDS(Window Dressing Settlement) firms identified by the financial supervisory service in their audit review exhibit higher level of accounting quality in order to avoid any potential negative effects and to regain public confidence after audit review. In this study, we analyzed 51 WDS firms and 102 control firms which traded in the Korean Stock Exchange market during the period from 2000 to the 2010. The number of observations subject to various tests are 251 and 502 firm-years for WDS and control samples respectively across the 5 year sample period. The results of the study show that the accounting quality after auditor review be significantly improved. This result suggests that the FSS's audit review system would control the accounting quality and then improve the transparency of the accounting information. Thus it may be suggested that the current audit review system is efficient ways to lead listed firms to provide transparent financial statements.

The objective of this study can be presented as follows: First, given the consumption-based carbon accounting method which has now been claimed, this study reviews the emissions within Korea and the resulting position change in international society. Second, when each nation makes efforts to reduce carbon emissions under the Copenhagen Accord, this study, using the Computable General Equilibrium (CGE) model, reviews the resulting carbon leakage and analyzes the effect from the various border adjustment measures. However, reflecting uncertainties in the negotiation processes, this study attempts to apply scenarios with regards to the reduction-mandatory nation group. In addition, this study tries to observe the impact on Korea through testing the various border adjustment measures, including the free allocation and embodied carbon tariffs.

기획재정부는 최근 중소건설업계의 경영환경 악화에 따른 경영애로를 완화하고 불합리한 제도를 개선하기 위해 국가 계약관련 회계예규를 개정하고 지난 11월 1일부터 시행에 들어갔다. 개정된 회계예규는 원자재 가격급등시 계약금액의 10% 범위 내에서 선금을 추가지급하게 해 이 돈을 자재확보 용도로 우선 사용할 수 있게 했다. 또한 원자재 가격급등으로 인한 계약금액의 조정을 원활하게 하기 위한 기준도 신설했다. 물가변동이 5% 이상물품구매는 10% 이상 상승하는 등 원자재 가격급등시에는 계약일로부터 90일 이내라도 계약금액을 조정할 수 있도록 했다. 현행 원자재 가격급등으로 인한 계약금액 조정은 일반적으로 계약일로부터 90일이 경과하고 물가변동이 3% 증감한 경우 기능하게 돼 있다. 대한설비건설협회는 자재가 급등으로 설비건설업계기 어려움에 처하자 자재가격 급등에 따른 계약금액을 변동시켜 줄 수 있도록 관련법 개정을 요청한 바 있다. 이에 따라 기획재정부기 회계예규 개정에 대한설비건설협회의 의견을 수용, 반영한 것이다. 개정된 회계예규는 또 종합건설업과 전문건설업간 겸업제한 폐지 및 실적인정에 따른 영업기간 인성 규정을 마련, 새로 등록한 업종으로 공공공사 입찰에 참여할 수 있게 해 종합 전문건설업간 상호 진출에 기여토록 했다. 지역중소업체 입찰참여가 쉽도록 1천억원 이상 대형공사(턴키 등) 에서 공동수급체 구성원수를 10 인 이내로 확대하기로 했다. 또한 300억원 미만의 적격심사낙찰제 대상공사 입찰시에 기업의 경영상태 평가는 원칙적으로 1년 이내 기업신용평가등급으로 평가하기로 했다. 이밖에 공동수급체 대표자 또는 수급인이 선금을 수령하고도 정당한 이유없이 공동수급체 구성원 또는 하수급인에게 배분하지 않는 사례를 막기 위해 계약담당공무원이 선금 배분여부를 확인하도록 하고 선금 사용 용도도 명시적으로 규정했다.

Mutual Savings Banks generally have weaker governance structure than other financial institutions, so the possibility of earnings management by owner-largest or managements of mutual savings banks is higher than other financial institutions. This study examines the relationship between corporate governance and quality of internal control of financial reporting. If the expropriation of minority shareholder hypothesis holds, we predict that the larger block shareholder in mutual savings banks, the weaker the internal control system by more likely the opportunistic earnings management by bank managers. On the other hand, under the convergence of interest hypothesis, we predict that the larger block shareholder in mutual savings banks, the stronger the internal control system by reduction in agency costs as owner-manager's holdings increases, and there a negative relationship is expected between internal control weakness and the holdings of the owner-largest shareholder. We find that mutual savings banks with higher owner-largest shareholder equity has significant positive relations with their internal control of financial reporting material weakness. This result suggests that the greater owner-largest shareholder equity, the more likely the opportunistic earnings management, so that decrease quality of internal control. This paper extends the literature on financial institutions corporate governance to verify whether governance system, especially, owner-largest and quality of internal control has significant positive relations.

지난해 우리 협회와 부산시가 행정쇄신 과제중의 하나로 제안한 기계설비공사 분리발주가 행정 쇄신위원회에서 결정$\cdot$통과돼 6월30일 재무부가 예산회계법시행령을 개정, 발주기관이 기계설비공종을 건축에서 별도로 분리 발주할 수 있도록 함에 따라 일반건설업체로부터 저가에 하도급을 받아 공사를 하던 설비전문업체들은 관련공사를 원도급에 의한 적정 가격에 수주받을 수 있어 각종 기계설비 공종에 대한 품질향상이 기대된다.
