The current study aims to investigate the relationship between CSRD and firm performance, as an indicator for corporate socially responsible behavior, and corporate market performance of listed companies on the Amman stock exchange (ASE). The study adopts a quantitative methodology and utilizes pooled data sets that was collected following content analysis approach of the annual reports for the period 2014 to 2019. The study sample consists of 42 listed companies. The study ran a multiple regression model in order to capture the relationship between the independent variable CSRD and the dependent variable that is Firm performance which was measured using Tobin's Q. The study also utilized five control variables in order to control the hypothesized relationship between CSRD and Firm Performance. The results indicate a negative but significant relationship between CSRD and corporate market performance measured by Tobin's Q. The results stand against the notion of the business case for CSR, and indicate the opposite position, so, the higher CSRD, the lower will be Tobin's Q. Such results support the notion of the institutional theory, and provide an initial evidence for legitimacy seeking behavior in Jordanian companies. However, the results indicate a lower level of awareness of CSR across investors and market players, which support arguments of the difference in market perceptions towards CSR.

현대사회의 기업 환경에서 회계정보생산자인 당해기업이 회계정보이용자들에게 회계정보를 공급하는 것은 정보비대칭의 문제 등에 의해 회계정보이용자의 정보요구에 만족을 충족시켜줄 수 없다. 따라서 회계정보이용자들의 정보요구 만족을 위해 제공되는 정보가 어떠해야 하는 것을 알아보는 것이 본 연구의 목적이다. 본 연구는 회계정보의 제공에 있어서 한국채택국제회계기준에 근간을 두고 회계정보의 질적 특성을 연구하였으며, 상장기업과 비상장기업의 회계정보이용자를 토대로 경험연구를 진행하여 회계정보의 수요와 정보요구 만족을 향상시키는 방법이 무엇인가를 연구하였다. 경험연구 결과 질적 특성이 충족한 회계정보가 회계정보이용자의 정보요구 충족에 유용한 것으로 확인 되었다. 또한 감사보고서 및 공시자료 등의 추가적인 정보가 정보요구 만족 향상에 기여한다는 결론이다. 본 연구를 통하여 향후 비상장기업의 감사제도와 공시제도를 강화시켜 회계정보이용자들의 유용성을 증대시켜야 한다는 방안을 제시하였다.

본 연구는 중소기업에 대한 회계투명성 제고를 위하여 독립된 중소기업회계 기준의 도입의 필요성을 제기하고, 독립된 중소기업회계기준의 도입에 대한 방향을 제시한다. 정부는 상장기업을 중심으로 회계투명성 관련 제도를 지속적으로 도입하였다. 그러나 상대적으로 비상장 중소기업의 회계투명성의 제고를 위한 제도의 도입은 매우 적다. 중소기업의 회계투명성제고을 위하여 중소기업이 이해하고 활용할 수 있는 중소기업회계기준의 도입이 반드시 필요하다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 최근 도입된 회계투명성 관련 제도를 살펴보았고, 중소기업의 투명성제고 방안과 관련된 선행연구를 살펴보았으며, 독립된 중소기업회계제도의 도입 방안을 살펴보았다. 독립된 중소기업회계기준의 도입을 위하여 현행회계기준의 문제점 및 중소기업회계기준의 필요성을 설명하고, 외국의 중소기업회계제도에 대하여 살펴보았다. 중소기업회계기준의 도입방안으로 완화방안과 강화방안을 제시한다. 완화방안으로는 이해용이성의 향상, 적용간편성의 증대, 세법과의 일관성 확보의 방안을 제시하였다. 강화방안으로 중소기업의 실상반영, 회계투명성관련 기준의 명문화와 관리적 회계보고측면의 강화의 방안을 제시하였다. 추가적으로 독립된 중소기업회계기준의 도입방향의 문제점과 대책을 기술하고, 보급방안을 제시한다.

This article examines the potential impact of the Covid-19 Lockdown on earnings manipulation and stock market sensitivity to earnings announcements. It also explores the effects of earnings manipulation after the COVID-19 outbreak on the share price sensitivity to the earnings disclosures. The study uses a quantitative method to analyze the financial data consisting of 87 firms listed on the Iraq Stock Exchange for the period from 2018 to 2020, which constitutes a total of (174 observations). We used Ohlson (1995) model to estimate financial market reaction and sensitivity to earnings manipulation fluctuations and accounting information. The results show that companies practice earnings manipulation to maintain earnings over a time series, which means a negative impact of earnings manipulation on all earnings measures' value relevance (EPS, BVS, and CFS). Accordingly, earnings manipulation negatively influences investor behavior in the financial market, based mainly on financial reporting. The value relevance of financial reports has also decreased because of the COVID-19 outbreak and related economic Lockdown. These results reflect a long-term adverse impact of earnings manipulation on investor behavior and financial statements reliability.

In recent years, many firms have built a good recruitment policy, focusing on the requirements set for candidates to meet the employers' satisfaction; they often have certain requirements for each accounting job's position. The study aims to identify and measure factors affecting the employers' satisfaction with accounting graduates in Hanoi, the important locus of firms' labor force. We conducted a questionnaire consisting of 16 observation variables with a 5-point Likert scale. Independent variables were measured from 1 "without effect" to 5 "strongly". Based on the literature review and results of interviews, a total of 150 questionnaires were sent to participants; 135 of them met the standards and were subject to be analyzed. The results of Cronbach's alpha, Exploratory Factor Analysis (EFA) and Multiple Regression Analysis (MRA) identify three main determinants influencing the employers' satisfaction with accounting graduates in Hanoi, including students' experience before graduating (SEG), reputation of universities (RU), and university's recruitment support policy (RSP). Based on the findings, some recommendations have been proposed to help universities design training programs for creating better satisfactions for employers in the future. On this basis, the authors propose a number of recommendations to improve the employers' satisfaction with accounting graduates in Hanoi.
