Audit review is the system to review the audit procedures performed and the audit opinion expressed by the independent auditors. The public audit review performed by Financial Supervisory Service (FSS) is regarded as one of the most important means to maintain the reliability of accounting information in Korea. We examinate the effect of audit review on earnings quality by using ERC (earnings response coefficient). We find that ERC of the sample group which issued the audit error reports after they were reviewed by SSB is more effective and higher than one of the non-reviewed group, matching group. We infer that the audit review system has the effectiveness in Korea.

Purpose - Export marketers may have incentives to attempt real earnings management to avoid low reported earnings. Therefore, we attempted to verify the relationship between cost stickiness and real earnings management in the context of export marketing. Design/methodology/approach - Data were collected from exporters that settle-accounts in December excluding financial businesses listed on the stock market from 2015 to 2019. Multiple regression analysis were employed to analyze the data. Findings - The results showed that there is a negative relationship between cost stickiness and real earnings management. In addition, the results showed that export marketers little attempt to offset the cost inefficiency caused by the increase in expense because of cost stickiness with opportunistic management activities through real earnings management. Rather, as the level of real earnings management appears lower, exporters showing cost stickiness are expected to report management performance based on actual marketing. Furthermore, exporters with a high level of managerial centrality or high managerial overconfidence little attempt to offset cost inefficiency caused by cost stickiness with real earnings management activities. Research implications or Originality - Our study is the first to investigate the quality of earnings information of exporters with cost stickiness. Based on the results, we suggested efficient marketing strategies for exporters.

In the international businesses human resource elements acquired in different countries might have different values in varied industries due to the different quality of education and experiences in the original countries. Using selection models to evaluate expected values in earnings equation of human resource elements such as education and experiences etc. acquired in sending countries, system equations are expanded to examine also the values of science and engineering degrees in technology jobs with selectivity bias correction. This paper used the US census survey data of 2015 on earnings, academic degrees, occupations etc. The US has long maintained the policy of accepting more STEM workers than any other countries and helped maintaining own technological leadership. Assuming per capita GDP gap between the sending country and the US downgrades immigrant human resource quality, it rarely affects occupational selection but depresses earnings on average by two or more years' worth of education. Immigrant quality index in the sense of GDP gap appears to be a valid tool to assess the expected earnings of the worker with. Engineering degrees increase significantly the probability of selecting not only engineering jobs but also general management jobs, as well as increasing the expected earning additionally over nine years'worth of education. Getting a technology job is additionally worth about four years of education. Economics and business degrees are worth additionally almost six years of education but humanities degrees depress expected earnings. Since years after immigration does not very fast enhance earnings capacity, education level and English language ability might be more useful criteria to expect better future earnings by.

Purpose: This study looks at the relevance between discretionary revenue and book-tax differences (hereafter BTDs). While the study of earnings management, which focused on discretionary accruals and real earnings management, has largely made, it has not yet been actively researched on discretionary revenues. Therefore, it was believed that discretionary revenue would expand the preceding study by looking at its relevance to BTD, known as financial reporting quality and measures of tax avoidance. In general, prior research suggested that earnings management make BTDs larger. Thus, the relationship between discretionary revenue and the amount of BTD is predicted positive. Research design, data and methodology: To this end, the method of discretionary revenues was used and BTDs measured in four ways. First, Earnings before income tax - estimated taxable income divided by total asset (BTD). Second is fractional rank variable of BTDs (FBTD). Third is Indicator variable equals 1 if the firm-year has a positive BTD, 0 otherwise (PBTD). Fourth is that Indicator variable equals 1 if the firm-year has a BTDs in top(bottom) quartile, 0 otherwise (LPBTD, LNBTD). 4,251 samples were analyzed in the Korean Security market (KOSPI) from 2003 to 2014. Results Empirical analysis shows that BTDs increases as discretionary revenue increases. These results were equally observed when BTDs was measured as a ranking variable or as a indicating variable. These results indicate that earnings management through the revenue of managers exacerbate the quality of financial reporting. Conclusions: In sum, discretionary revenues can be used as an indicator of making BTDs larger and meaningful as the first study of the Korean capital market where discretionary revenues affect accounting information quality. Investors need to increase interest in discretionary revenues because intervention in financial reporting through revenue accounts by managers can increase information asymmetry and agency costs. This means that studies on discretionary revenues that have been relatively small should be expanded. The results also provide important implications for the relevant authorities and investors. Despite these benefits, however, measurement error problems with estimates still appear as limited points, and prudent interpretations are required, and additional follow-up studies are needed in that variables that are not yet considered in this study may affect our findings.

When firms have higher environmental performance, they can provide sustainable business that allows firms to build the value of credibility and ethics, higher reputation, higher productivity, and lower costs. The advantages of environmental responsibilities help firms to maintain their earnings level over a long-term period. This research aims to examine the effect of environmental performance on earnings persistence. Research samples include 413 manufacturing firms-years listed in the Indonesian Stock Exchange and the PROPER evaluation in 2013-2019. Environmental performance is measured by PROPER evaluation rating. The result shows that environmental performance has a positive effect on earnings persistence. The advantage of environmental responsibilities allows firms to enjoy performance sustainability and persistence in a long-term period, not only periodically. Also, the positive effect of environmental performance on earnings persistence occurs more in the environmentally sensitive industry than non-sensitive ones. Since an environmentally-sensitive industry brings more environmental damage, higher environmental performance is more valuable to provide sustainability. This research has limitations to use all the Indonesian Stock Exchange-listed firms since not all firms participate in the PROPER evaluation. This research implies firms' management should maintain earnings persistence and sustainability by implementing higher-quality environmental responsibility, especially for firms in an environmentally-sensitive industry.

2008년 미국 서브프라임 금융위기 이후 더욱 심화된 국내 대기업-중소기업 간 경제 양극화의 해소 방안 중 하나로 동반성장정책(Win-Win Growth policy)의 중요성이 주목받고 있다. 특히 최근 다소 높은 수준의 최저임금 인상으로 중소기업의 경영난이 가중되고 있는 현 시점에서 동반성장 정책의 도입 및 확산은 대기업이 중소기업을 지배하는 한국 경제의 생태계를 대기업-중소기업 간 상생협력의 동반자적 경제 생태계로 전환하는 하나의 계기가 될 수 있을 것이다. 이에 본 연구에서는 동반성장 기업에 초점을 두고 동반성장 기업의 회계보수주의 수준을 검증하였다. 연구표본은 동반성장지수가 공시되기 시작한 2011년부터 2017년 한국거래소 상장 비금융업 12월 결산법인 총 3,608개 기업연도이다. 분석결과, 동반성장 수준이 높은 기업일수록 회계보수주의 수준이 높은 것으로 나타났다. 특히 이러한 결과는 동반성장평가 기업만을 대상으로 한 추가분석에서도 지지되었다. 본 연구는 최근 그 중요성이 더욱 높아지고 있는 동반성장에 주목하고, 동반성장 기업의 회계이익의 질을 회계보수주의 측면에서 검증한 첫 연구라는 점에서 연구의 의의가 있다고 할 수 있다. 아울러 본 연구가 한국 경제 생태계에 동반성장의 인식 및 확산에 조금이나마 기여할 수 있기를 희망한다.

본 연구는 수익비용대응이 정보비대칭을 감소시키는지 먼저 살펴보고 이익지속성과 정보비대칭에 미치는 영향을 검증한다. 경영자와 정보이용자간에 정보비대칭이 존재하는 상황에서 경영자는 이익의 질을 높임으로써 정보비대칭을 감소시킬 수 있다. 정보비대칭은 재무분석가의 이익예측분산으로 측정한다. 선행연구의 결과를 살펴볼 때, 수익비용대응이 높을수록 정보비대칭이 감소하는지를 살펴보고, 수익비용대응이 높은 경우 이익지속성과 정보비대칭간에 음(-)의 관련성이 나타나는지를 검증한다. 연구결과, 수익비용대응이 높은 기업들은 정보비대칭이 감소하는 결과를 보였다. 높은 수익비용대응이 수행된 이익의 지속성은 재무분석가의 이익예측분산을 감소시키는 것으로 나타났다. 이는 수익비용대응이 잘 이루어질수록 이익의 질이 개선되고 기업의 불확실성에 대한 정보위험이 감소되는 것을 의미한다. 본 연구는 높은 수익비용대응이 수행된 이익의 지속성이 정보비대칭을 감소시키는지를 분석했다는 점에서 선행연구와 차별성을 가진다. 경영자가 적절한 수익비용대응을 수행하여 정보비대칭을 감소시킨다는 본 연구의 결과는 회계이익정보를 활용하는 이해관계자들에게 추가적인 시사점을 제공할 것이다.

본 연구는 예비유니콘 선정기업을 대상으로 선정시점에 대한 이익조정을 분석하였다. 경영자는 예비 유니콘기업에 선정되면 최대 200억원에 달하는 금융지원을 받을 수 있어 이익조정의 유인이 생긴다. 경영자에게 이익조정의 동기에는 자본시장과 관련된 동기가 있는데 회계정보는 투자자와 재무분석가에게 이용이 되고 기업의 이익은 기업가치에 영향을 주고 있다. 따라서 회계 이익을 상향으로 조정하면 기업가치가 상향되어 투자조건이 유리하게 된다. 본 연구에서는 이익의 질은 대체적인 발생액 예측모형을 이용하여 추정된 재량적 발생액 중에서 Dechow et al.(1995)에 의한 수정 Jones모형 및 Kothari et al.(2005)에 의한 성과대응모형으로 측정하였다. 선정기업과 동일시장에서 경쟁할 것을 예상되는 유사한 대응기업을 구성하여 재량적발생액을 상호 비교하여 연구가설을 검증하고 선정기업만을 대상으로 심사년도와 심사년도 이후를 분석하였다. 분석 결과 예비유니콘 선정기업이 대응기업과 비교하여 이익조정이 높은 것으로 나타나서 회계 이익의 질에 부정적인 영향을 주는 것을 알 수 있었다. 그리고 선행연구에서와 다르게 선정후에도 이익의 질이 낮은 것으로 나타나서 예비유니콘 선정기업은 선정 후에도 경영자의 이익조정의 유인이 계속 지속되는 것을 알 수 있었다. 본 연구를 통해 예비유니콘 선정기업은 기업의 내부 성장보다는 기업의 외형 성장을 통해 시장에서의 가치를 인정받아서 외부 투자자로부터 유리한 조건의 투자를 유치하기 위한 경영자에게 이익조정의 유인이 지속되고 있는 것으로 분석되었으며 향후 예비유니콘 선정평가에서 회계 이익의 질에 대한 검토가 필요한 것을 제시할 수 있었다. 본 연구의 시사점은 경영자의 이익조정 유인이 결국 투자자나 채권자로 하여금 회계정보의 신뢰성을 판단하는데 저해가 되고 있어 이러한 경영자의 이익조정에 대한 것을 감안하여 예비유니콘기업 선정평가에 있어서 회계정보의 투명성과 신뢰성을 높이는 K-유니콘 프로젝트의 정책대안으로 재량적발생액을 통한 이익의 질에 대한 평가를 반영하여 이익조정을 예방할 것을 시사하고 있다.

Earnings management behavior is the use of accounting procedures, through accounting policies, to intentionally purposeful control in the provision of information to users. The purpose of this paper is to examine the relationship between ownership structure factors and earnings management behavior of 30 Vietnamese commercial banks. The paper uses the ordinary least square method to examine this relationship and employs time series data of 15 years from 2005 to 2019. The study also uses agency theory an asymmetric information theory. The authors examined six independent variables related to the ownership structure and these variables are typical of Vietnamese commercial banks. The results of the study show that the foreign ownership ratio is an opposite effect, while the ownership concentration variable has a positive effect on earnings management behavior of Vietnamese commercial banks. Based on that, the article proposes a number of policy suggestions for the State bank of Vietnam and Board of directors of commercial banks as well as investors to identify and to limit the earnings management behaviors of Vietnamese commercial banks. This contributes to ensuring information transparency as well as improving the quality of accounting information of Vietnamese commercial banks in the coming years.
