Improper application of accounting policies can lead to misrepresentation of firms' financial position and performance which consequently results in incorrect accounting information to the users. This paper aims to investigate the factors influencing the choices of accounting policies in small and medium enterprises (SMEs) in Vietnam by reviewing relevant literature to build a research model. The research model comprises of one dependent variable that is income-decreasing accounting procedures and six independent variables namely the firm size, financial leverage, incentives, auditor, accountants, and tax policies. After this, the authors collected primary data from more than 200 questionnaires sent to directors and chief accountants of the SMEs for the period 2018 to 2019. We then used Ordinary Least Squares regression method (OLS) to analyze the data. The results showed that four factors influenced selection of accounting policies in which auditors are associated with income-increasing accounting policies; and there are three factors associated with income-decreasing accounting policies which are, company size, tax and accountant. Especially, the research results indicate that company size has a significant influence on the selection of accounting policies in the SMEs. Based on the results, we propose instructive suggestions for regulators and lawmakers improve choices of accounting policies in the SMEs.

  • In this article, we perform an international overview of accounting standards for tax effect accounting(or income taxes). Specially, we compare accounting standards for tax effect accounting of U.S. and International Accounting Standards. The principal component of U.S. accounting standards for tax effect accounting is as follow. Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes (SFAS No. 109) represents the culmination of a multi-year process in which Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) reviewed and subsequently modified the requirements for accounting for income taxes. SFAS No. 109 requires an 'asset and liability' approach for the accounting for income taxes. That is, deferred income taxes are viewed as assets and liabilities of the firm, and deferred tax expenses id determined by the current-year change in the firm's deferred tax liabilities and assets. Previously, Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 11, Accounting for Income Taxes (APB No. 11) required a 'deferral' approach to accounting for income taxes. The primary intent of the deferral approach was to match tax expense with corresponding revenues and expenses for the year in which the revenues and expenses were recognized in the financial statement. Unlike the SFAS No. 109, APB No. 11 did not require firms to adjust deferred tax balances for subsequent events such as changes in tax rates or laws. And, the principal deference between SFAS No. 109 and the previous statement on accounting for income taxes, SFAS No. 96, is that SFAS No. 109 requires firms to recognize deferred tax assets for the tax benefits of tax credit or operating loss carryforwards, no matter how likely the firm was to realize these benefits, and this was one of the reasons for its demise.
