Abstract

By abolishing the tax credit on dividends received by tax-exempt financial institutions in 1997, the effective rate of tax for share-holders such as pension funds increases significantly, and the tax preference for dividends is significantly reduced. The tax-exempt shareholders mainly consist of pension funds and insurance companies with respect to their pension business. This tax-exempt community is the most influential shareholders in many U.K. companies, and their tax preference for dividends may have an important impact on corporate dividend policy.The objective of this study is to examine whether the aggregate dividend payment changes following the 1997 abolition of the tax credit. Using aggregate data in time series from 1974 to 1999, this study finds that the percentage of forecast error in Lintner’s model does not change significantly between the pre- and post-abolition periods. Hence, there is no evidence that aggregate dividend payment decreases following the abolition of tax credit. This could be interpreted that the aggregate sample of U.K. firms indicates a little intention of changing their dividend policies in response to the abolition of tax credit.This study also investigates whether individual U.K. companies respond to the 1997 abolition of tax-credit. The test results show that the majority of companies in the sample do not change their dividend policies after the abolition of tax credit. It is possible that companies are reluctant to cut their dividend payment since the existing dividend payout could be sustained in the long-run. They also avoid sending negative signals to the market. Thus, companies typically chose to keep a dividend level relatively stable following the tax change in 1997. Only the minority of the U.K. companies experience a decline in their dividend payment. This evidence supports the hypothesis that the abolition of tax credit on dividends results in a decrease in aggregate dividend payment in order to satisfy a tax clientele.

Abstract

The ex-dividend day returns are composed of the capital gains component and the dividends component. This study mainly examines the relationship between the 1997 abolition of the tax-credit and the ex-dividend day abnormal stock returns in the UK market (London Stock Exchange). The 1997 abolition of the tax credit on dividend effectively reduced the income of pension funds and other tax-exempt shareholders who had a strong preference for dividends. This study finds that the ex-day abnormal returns (AR) declined from +0.0580 percent during the pre-abolition periods to -0.1459 percent during the post-abolition periods. This decline is statistically significant with a t-value of 2.0431. From these results it would appear that the ex-dividend day AR changed following the 1997 abolition of tax credits on dividends. Moreover the comparison tests of ex-day drop-off ratios between pre-and post-abolition periods show that drop-off ratios for all dividend yield groups increased significantly from 0.519 in the pre-abolition periods to 0.574 over the post-abolition periods with a t-value of 2.183. Thus, the decrease on ex-day AR was further supported by a significant increase in the average price-drop to dividend ratios.The decline in the ex-day AR for the post-abolition periods seems to be driven primarily by quintile 5 (the highest dividend yield quintile). Quintile 5 exhibits strong dividend preference and this preference is likely caused  by the  imputation system that provides a tax advantage to the tax exempt shareholders. This finding appears to suggest that the highest dividend yield securities are likely to be held by tax-exempt investors such as pension funds that were affected by the abolition of the tax credits on dividend.

Abstract

The objective of this study is to continue and extend previous studies in evaluating the extent to which current assurance practices promote transparency and accountability to stakeholders. This is carried out by conducting an empirical analysis of the content of assurance statements accompanying a sample of non-financial reports short-listed for the Association of Chartered Certified Accountants (ACCA) U.K. Sustainability Reporting Award and the CERES-ACCA Sustainability Reporting Award from 2006 to 2008. The findings of this study show that several new trends in social, environmental and sustainability assurance can be observed. Firstly, accountants tend to limit their intended readership to management only and state a disclaimer for other potential readers. This diminishes the transparency and stakeholder accountability of the reporting. Secondly, there is even stronger evidence that management has the control over the scope of the assurance engagement and over what information gets publicly disclosed. The evidence is shown in the fact that in many assurance statements prepared by accountants, only selected parts of the reports are being assured, with no indication that it is not management who selects these parts. Finally, the recent practices of assurance engagements represented by the sample in this study have not improved the transparency and stakeholder accountability of social, environmental and sustainable reporting. Similar to the two previous studies, we assert that a generally accepted standard is needed to promote assurance statements that add meaningful values to the reliability of social, environmental and sustainability reporting.

Abstract

This study aims to investigate the effect of various aspects of power on administrative control system implementation, i.e. the Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) of a local health insurance program, as well as on its organizational consequences in the form of accountability and efficiency. The sequential explanatory strategy of mixed methods research is then used. Data from 86 physicians of 7 local public hospitals in Bali Province collected through survey using self-report questionnaires at quantitative stage and the transcript of an interview process conducted on qualitative stage was analyzed using Partial Least Square (PLS) and descriptive statistical technique, respectively. The results show that external pressure in the form of legal requirements significantly influences this type of administrative control system implementation. Moreover, the implementation of administrative control system is also shown to have a positive impact on accountability, while accountability itself displays full mediating effect on the positive relationship between the implementation of administrative control systems and efficiency.

Abstract

Persaingan bisnis yang semakin ketat menuntut perusahaan untuk memahami profitabilitas pelanggan guna merumuskan strategi yang lebih efektif. Penelitian ini bertujuan menganalisis profitabilitas pelanggan, khususnya pada segmen pelanggan distributor, dengan menggunakan pendekatan berbasis Activity-Based Costing (ABC) di SP Aluminium Yogyakarta, sebuah perusahaan manufaktur produk peralatan rumah tangga berbahan dasar aluminium. Penggunaan metode tradisional dalam alokasi biaya sering menyebabkan ketidaktepatan dalam penilaian profitabilitas pelanggan, mengarah pada overcosting dan undercosting yang merugikan perusahaan. Melalui penerapan ABC, penelitian ini menemukan bahwa pelanggan dengan volume pembelian tinggi tidak selalu memberikan kontribusi positif terhadap profitabilitas perusahaan, terutama ketika biaya layanan yang diberikan lebih besar dari kontribusi pendapatan mereka. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa metode tradisional menyebabkan overcosting pada pelanggan besar dan undercosting pada pelanggan menengah serta kecil. Sebaliknya, metode ABC mengungkapkan profitabilitas pelanggan besar sebesar Rp5.917.990.235, yang sebelumnya terlihat negatif dengan metode tradisional. Hal ini disebabkan oleh alokasi biaya tidak langsung yang tidak proporsional dalam metode tradisional, yang menyebabkan pelanggan besar tampak merugi, sementara pelanggan menengah dan kecil terlihat lebih menguntungkan dari kenyataan. Di sisi lain, penerapan ABC membantu perusahaan untuk mengalokasikan biaya secara lebih akurat, memberikan gambaran yang lebih jelas tentang kontribusi setiap pelanggan terhadap profitabilitas perusahaan. Temuan ini berimplikasi pada desain kebijakan diskon yang lebih efisien, evaluasi segmen pelanggan berdasarkan profitabilitas, dan optimalisasi strategi Customer Relationship Management (CRM) untuk meningkatkan loyalitas pelanggan yang memberikan nilai jangka panjang. Meskipun demikian, implementasi ABC dihadapkan pada tantangan seperti keterbatasan pemahaman karyawan, sistem akuntansi yang sederhana, dan resistensi terhadap perubahan. Secara keseluruhan, penelitian ini menyarankan bahwa penerapan ABC dapat meningkatkan akurasi alokasi biaya dan membantu perusahaan dalam mengelola hubungan pelanggan yang lebih strategis dan menguntungkan.
