Abstract

This study focuses on the adoption rate of management accounting practices by two hundred and fifteen Egyptian manufacturing companies and the ranking by managers of the benefits derived from the practices. Egypt has never been studied to determine the current status of adopted management accounting practices by manufacturers. This study employs the cultural approach using Hofstedes four dimensions of the cultural orientation of a country, to develop hypotheses regarding the choice of management accounting practices used by Egyptian organizations. Hofstede developed an index to represent each of these four dimensions for fifty countries. Egypt scored as having a high degree of power distance and uncertainty avoidance and a low degree of individualism and masculinity. A questionnaire was developed and the survey was conducted by personal interviews of senior financial managers of manufacturing companies listed on the Egyptian stock exchange.Results indicate that Egyptian manufacturing organizations still retain and believe in the benefits derived from using traditional management accounting practices as they fit well with managing in an unstable economy. However, results also show that Egyptian managers have started recognizing the benefits of some of the more advanced management accounting practices.

Abstract

Organization culture, internal resources and tools, industry, eco–techno environment and socio-political environment factors are combined to build a model to evaluate their impact on the effectiveness of strategic investment decisions. Empirical data collected from decisions makers in the Indian power sector was used for the study, and it was observed that all latent factors have a positive effect on the effectiveness of investment decisions at 90% confidence level. Though the internal resources and tools and socio-political environment do not have a positive impact on the effectiveness of investment decisions at 95% confidence level based on interaction effects, it may be argued that the socio-political environment strengthens a positive relationship between internal resources and tools; and the effectiveness of strategic investment decisions. There is no significant difference except for the effect of socio-political environment factors and internal resources and tools.

Abstract

This study contributes to the understanding of management control systems (MCS) use in international joint ventures (IJVs) by proposing a contingent framework. In particular this study is interested in assessing the use of MCS information to overcome internal uncertainty of operating an IJV (Lu and Hebert, 2005). A path model was applied to data from 35 50/50 IJVs in the automotive parts industry. The results indicate that the intensity of use of MCS improves IJV performance confirming that MCS are used to reduce uncertainty in Galbraith (1973) terms. Uncertainty is reduced because each partner, according to their prior experience, uses different sets of information with different intensities which in turn improves IJV performance.

Abstract

This paper presents a critical perspective of earnings management literature and its measurement and motivations. The paper focuses on accrual-based accounting choices, considered as a well-established tool to manage earnings. It suggests that the accrual-based models used in the literature to measure earnings management are complicated by the difficulty of measuring discretionary and non-discretionary accruals. This raises an important question which is: Are the results related to the earnings management studies accurate and reliable? The paper also highlights a number of complex and interrelated incentives for companies to manage their reported earnings. It is hoped that this study will provide a better understanding of the relationship among discretionary accruals, managerial motivations, and earnings management. Such insights may change the view of insiders and outsiders on the contents of financial statements and the role of auditors. By doing this, the quality of information that is available to the public may be enhanced; and hence, users of annual reports may be better served. Finally, this study may be used as a guide by which financial analysts and other interested parties can evaluate the accuracy and reliability of conclusions related to earnings management.

Abstract

This study investigates the economic justifications of stock options grants in Portuguese firms. We hypothesize that the agency theory (firm size, firm risk, diversification and investment opportunities), financial (liquidity constraints and leverage), ownership (equity held by managers and ownership concentration) and board structure may influence the grant of stock options in Portuguese firms. Using a sample of 160 observations (40 firm-year observations from 2003 to 2006), from Portuguese listed firms we find that the probability of granting stock options increases with the firms size, when firms face liquidity constraints and managerial ownership is high, and decreases with firms risk, when diversification is high and when firms have high levels of investment opportunities and of leverage.

Abstract

Advances in information technology and communications with related computational power are providing a wide spectrum of systems forming the basis of smart home technologies. The appliances with the help of Internet of things (IoT) are used to support the health, safety, and independence of people in smart homes. This research examines the various factors which influence consumers purchase intention of smart appliances. A structural equation was formed using ADANCO modeling tool with the results gained from the consumer questionnaire designed to test the independent variables. Using this, hypotheses are defined and tested. Responses were received from a sample of 302 respondents geographically covering Asia Pacific, America, Australia and Europe. The research shows that all five factors have an impact on the purchase intention with interoperability having the strongest influence followed by privacy & control, technology, awareness and social factor. Therefore, the study implies that smart appliance manufacturers should focus more on the first two factors that are interoperability and privacy & control when communicating with customers which in turn would help them to decide on a purchase.
