Abstract

An increasing number of researchers are finding that poor corporate governance (CG) is a leading factor in poor performance, manipulated financial reports, and unhappy stakeholders. The recent accounting scandals (Enron, WorldCom, Madoff, Satyam, etc.) have induced a crisis of confidence in financial reporting practice and effectiveness of CG mechanisms. Corporations and regulatory bodies are, therefore, trying to analyze and correct any existing defects in their reporting system. In the current reporting environment, forensic accountants (FA's) are in great demand for their niche accounting, auditing, legal, and investigative skills. Influenced by business, government, regulatory authorities and the courts, there is evidence that a higher level of expertise is now required to analyze present-day complicated financial transactions and events. As a result, forensic accounting has been thrown in the forefront of the crusade against financial deception and accounting scandals. This paper investigates through a survey study, which was conducted in the National Capital Region of India during 2011-12, if there are differences in the views of the relevant skills of FA's among accounting practitioners, academics, and users of forensic accounting services. In all, nine questions were asked to 40 practitioners, 80 academics and 80 users of forensic accounting services that pertain to solicit their views of what skills are deemed inherently important to FA's? At present, some Universities in India are considering adding forensic accounting course to their curriculum. The results of the present study may provide some guidance to educators for the development of forensic accounting curriculum by identifying the pertinent skills to accompany a program of study.

Abstract

Portuguese listed firms (as well all EU companies) have been required to use IFRS and consequently IFRS 3 Business Combinations and IAS 36 Impairments of Assets since 2005. On adopting IFRS 3 goodwill is no longer amortised but is subject to an annual impairment test in accordance with IAS 36. Previous studies suggest that the impairment of goodwill decision is influenced by managers (e.g. Beatty and Weber, 2006; Jahmani et al., 2010; Van de Poel et al., 2009), which may exercise discretion in determining the recoverable value of goodwill. Therefore, this paper investigates whether Portuguese listed companies use goodwill impairment loss to manage earnings. Using a sample of 33 Euro next Lisbon non-financial firms over a period of 6 years, from 2005 through 2010, we find that the goodwill impairment amount is significantly positively related to earnings management, suggesting that IAS 36 provides managers with discretion for goodwill write-off.

Earnings management exhibited a statistical significant relationship with leverage in 2010, ROA in 2009 and size in 2008. While voluntary corporate governance disclosure is so limited summing up the results reveals that five directors on the Board is common, in the most companies CEO is member of the Board but in very few firms CEO is chairman of directors' board. High concentrated Institutional ownership in the hands of state or semi government entities is dominated in the Iranian listed companies.
