Abstract

Drawing on the new institutional sociology theory, this study aims at exploring the implementation of environmental accounting. We analysed sustainability and annual reports of 39 manufacturing companies in Indonesia from 2010 to 2017. The hypotheses of the study were tested using multiple linear regression analysis. The results indicated that company reputation has a positive effect on environmental accounting. However, public ownership has no effect. These results showed that community power failed to encourage companies to disclose environmental accounting. The environmental reporting provided by companies was merely a ceremonial for the good company reputation. The findings of this study contribute to the policy development in which the government might need to tighten regulations for companies to administer their impacts on the environment and provide awards for those succeeding in implementing environmental accounting.

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to examine how accountants are portrayed in recent box office films. The samples for this study were movies registered in the Internet Movie Database and Film Indonesia. The study focuses on the accountant who appears in movies as a main character, side character, and/or cameo. Movies with accountant as the character and winning at least one award were chosen in this study. The semiotic analysis of movie data involved three steps: viewing the entire film, focusing on the accountants character scene in accordance with the description criteria, and interpreting the characters denotatively, connotatively, and mythically. The findings demonstrate that the stereotype of accountants shown in movies is consistent with societal preconceptions, such as being a man's occupation, having a bean counter, being introverted, and committing money theft. However, in some movies, accountants are portrayed positively. This negative depiction of accountants may cause students to be reluctant to choose accountants as their career choice. Thus, public accounting firms will encounter difficulties in recruiting and sustaining their businesses. Framed with the social representation theory, this study contributes to the accounting literature by focusing on the depiction of the accountant's character shown in the film by using semiotic analysis to investigate the depiction of accountants in films released since 2000.
