The purpose of this article is to investigate the effects of cash flow and accrual, which are the elements of earnings, and those of the elements of cash flow and accrual on the consistency of cash flow and firm's value. We analyzed 4 kinds of regression models, of which the independent variables are this period's cash flow, the elements of cash flow, accrual, and the elements of accrual, and the dependent variables are the next period's cash flow, and the stock price at the end of financial statements disclosure months, respectively. The sample firms were the manufacturing companies listed on the Stock Exchange 1980 through 2006, of which the fiscal year ended in December. And, the results of the analyses are as follows: Cash flow and accrual are shown to have significant relationships with cash flow consistency and the evaluations of firms' value. And, the elements of cash flow or accrual proved to have more influence than the total amount of them, on cash flow consistency and the evaluation of firms' value. Also, the results present that some of the elements of cash flow and accrual differently affect cash flow consistency and the evaluation of firms' value. Accordingly, this study indicates that each of the elements of cash flow and accrual needs to be considered respectively rather than the total amount of them, in the case that cash flow and accrual are used in the decision-making concerned with the forecast of cash flow and the evaluation of firms' value. This study also shows that each element of cash flow and accrual needs to be used differently for cash flow forecast and the evaluation of firms' value.

Many construction companies are simultaneously carrying out numerous projects in the housing construction industry. It is essential to accurately forecast the cash flow of a project through optimal process management and resource input in order to manage funds rationally and enhance the competitiveness of a company. Current cash flow forecasting methods offer lower accuracy due to a large gap between the revenue and expenditure element. Expenditure elements depends on the real-time changing actual cost for work performed. This research survey was conducted on the actual state of construction management of K company to investigate the problems of cash flow forecasting. To achieve this, the work process and construction management system were integrated to improve the cost management system of K company. To accurately forecast the cash flow of a project, revenue and expenditure elements were displayed in the total cash flow forecast window. This research is expected to assist in the implementation of a system of cash flow forecasting on housing construction by excluding negative elements of revenue and expenditure.

Purpose: The forecasting is the likelihood scientifically proved judgment about the prospects, the possible conditions of this or that phenomenon in the future and (or) about the alternative ways and the means of their realization. To adapt the instruments of budgeting for the analysis cash flow of company. Research design, data and methodology: The creates the budget of cash flow were carried out on the basis of data of the report for the 2017 of corporations POSCO and in the first half of the 2018 Daewoo Shipbuilding & Marine Engineering of South Korea. Results: The simultaneous use of budgeting techniques and the simple financial analysis allows to systematize the transactions, to identify the main problem areas in the movement cash flows. Therefore, working capital analysis is to determine the limits of their fluctuations in view of the changes in the business processes. Conclusions: In the pedagogical context solved the features of budgeting in the part evaluation current assets, its financing, its elements: the cash, the debtor. In the process of budgeting of cash flow, in credit budget, in financial budget we can see the main indicators: the current assets, the functioning capital, the optimum number of debtors, the optimum amount of cash and another.

This paper presents a new present value measure, the dynamic present value, or DPV. DPV takes into account not only the value of the realized cash flow but also that of potential cash flow. The DPV approach enables the analyst to observe differences in the present value of the alternatives every period over the whole time period of interest. This is the most fundamental advantage of the DPV approach over the traditional present value approach in which the present value of the alternatives is evaluated only one particular point of time. The concepts of the realized and potential cash flows are also developed in this paper. These new concepts are found to be useful elements in evaluating economic alternatives.

A backward Dynamic Programming(DP) model for the optimal facility replacement decision problem during a finite planning horizon is presented. Multiple alternative challengers to a current defender are considered. All facilities are assumed to have finite service lives. The objective of the DP model is to maximize the profit over a finite planning horizon. As for the cost elements, purchasing cost, maintenance costs and repair costs as well as salvage value are considered. The time to failure is assumed to follow a weibull distribution and the maximum likelihood estimation of Weibull parameters is used to evaluate the expected cost of repair. To evaluate the revenue, the rate of operation during a specified period is employed. The cash flow component of each challenger can vary independently according to the time of occurrence and the item can be extended easily. The effects of inflation and the time value of money are considered. The algorithm is illustrated with a numerical example. A MATLAB implementation of the model is used to identify the optimal sequence and timing of the replacement.

This article discussed the characteristics of several Pareto-optimal incentive contracts between owner and labor, more specifically, four situations: reporting output jointly observable by labor ana owner; reporting both output and effort; incorporating other endogenous elements (like capital) that affect the production process and Pareto-optimal fee schedules; and ascertaining the effects of private pre-decision information private- decision information, and per-contact informational asymmetries. Also presented were several extensions of the basic contractual model, and the different components of agency costs associated with labor-owner contractual relations. In a single-period model, the agency problem exists because the uncertainty prevents the owner from using the cash flow to determine unambiguously the labor's action. Holmstrom(1979) suggests that "when the same situation repeats itself over time, the effects of uncertainty tend to be reduced and dystunctional behavior is more accurately revealed, thus alleviating the problem of moral hazard. " Under these conditions, if the labor selects the first-best level of effect in each period, the cash flow will be independent and identically distributed over time. As the number of periods increases, the variance of the labows average output, if he selects the first-best level of effort in each period, gets smaller. Note that for this diversification effect to occur, it is necessary that the owner evaluate the labor's effort over the entire history of his employment, rather than evaluate each period's performance separately. Radner(1980) and Rubinstein and Yaari(1980) consider the extreme case in which there are an infinite number of observations. They show that the owner can eventually detect and systematic shirking on the part of the labor by comparing the labor's average output with what would be expected if the labor had been selecting the first-best level of effort in each period. In a dynamic model with incentive problems we have demonstrated that the labor's second-period compensation will depend on his first-period performance. This allows the owner to diversify away some of the uncertainty surrounding the labor's actions. In addition, this allows the owner to smooth the labor's income over time by spreading the risk of the first-period outcome over both periods. At least some unexplored avenves in this area invite future accounting research: situations where owner has different incompatible objectives and negotiates a contract with labor; circumstances in which owner deals with multiple objectives and negotiates contracts with several labors simultaneously; the value of costly accounting information systems and communication in establishing, Pareto-optimal incentive contracts, and the value and effects of inside information, Thorough theoretical or empirical research on each of these topics not only would increase our knowledge about the role and significance of accounting information but could also provide explanations of the inherent differences among various organizations and in their economic behavior. behavior.

This paper tests Van Home's hypothesis, a negative correlation between degrees of operating leverage(DOL) and financial leverage(DFL). For an empirical analysis, we extract information from financial statements of manufacturing companies listed in the Korea Stock Exchange. Data extend from 1980 to 2001. The DOL continued to increase until 1997, but decreased dramatically after the IMF financial crisis. However, the DOL has been at a higher level than companies of other countries such as USA and Japan. The DFL has been maintained at a much higher level, as expected. The empirical results indicate a positive correlation between the DOL and the DFL, which is inconsistent with the VanHorne's hypothesis. To further investigate, we divide the whole sample into subgroups according to such management elements as asset size, level of leverages, earnings and cash flow. The results for sub-samples are different from those of whole sample. This indicates we need to incorporate specific managerial factors in order to correctly explain financial decision processes.
