Abstract

Accounting standards harmonisation literature shows that from the beginning of the twenty first century IASs and IFRSs are receiving increasing attention from professional accounting bodies and stock market authorities of developed and developing countries more than ever before. Consequently number of countries chose to join the IAS users have increased dramatically in recent years. The objective of this paper is to explore how Iranian Accounting Standards Board achieves harmonisation with IASs and IFRSs while government using some efforts to develop local stock market as means of privatisation. Tehran Stock Exchange which is involved in the third wave of country privatisation required companies to prepare their financial reports using National Accounting Standards. These standards are in harmony with IASs and IFRs as they are developed based on the same procedure of IASB’s “due process”. In the same way, proposed projects of Iran Accounting Standards Boards aim to develop conceptual framework in order to establish a platform for standard setting. Due to recent development in privatisation in relation to internationally harmonised national accounting and auditing standards the standard setting in Iran is in the state of flex national and international wise.

Abstract

The aim of this study is to introduce a preliminary meth odological foundation of research that may be used as a basis for advancing accounting knowledge. It is designed especially to capture the meanings of social reality which construted by and as the result of interactions among members of Muslim society, economic systems, and accounting practices in Indonesia. The study attempts to combine and extend symbolic interactionism, a perspective of social psyphology, with Islamic values, that is, the concept of faith, knowledge and action. The modification, in terms of extending symbolic interactionism is indispensably conducted to adapt a social-religious environment in which the research will be carried out. Knowledge nearly completely externalized and desacralized, especially among those segments of human race which have become transformed by the process of modernization, and that bliss [qudrah, isikmah, and rahmah] which is the frail of union with the One with and an aspect of the perfume of the sacred has become well-nigh unattainable and beyond the grasp of the vast majority of those who walk upon the earth (Nasr1981,1).

Abstract

As businesses struggle to maintain sustainability, a great deal of interest has focused on the issues of performance measurement systems. This paper provides a literature review on the evolution of performance measurement systems, from the traditional performance measures to the sustainable balanced scorecard. More importantly, this paper highlights the vital role of sustainable balanced scorecard as a tool that manages both economic and environmental performance. Majority of the existing sustainable balanced scorecard studies were found to be of normative nature giving limited information on how the integration process between economic and environmental dimensions is being carried out via balanced scorecard. Future research is needed to enhance the understanding of the role of the sustainable balanced scorecard as an important tool in the management of economic and environmental performance in the organization.Keywords:  Balanced Scorecard, Environmental management, Sustainability, Eco-efficiency

Abstract

This paper dismantles the occurance of Tax Avoidance found in the family company in Malang. The method used in this research is etnomethodology, a method that is used to investigate indexical expressions and other practical actions as a unified settlement that is being done (the organized Tax Avoidance) and how to apprehed their everyday world. It is mentioned in the beginning that there are a number of factors which cause tax avoidance, that is a drive to "enrich" themselves faster, gluttony, stingy, and a number of lust rage. It is also revealed that the practice of trailing attitude is driven by a fact that there are companies which do not pay taxes but they are safe. The presence of the National Land Agency (Badan Pertanahan Nasional), local governments and tax officials who must be "serviced", in fact also trigger the occurrence of tax avoidance. These kind of activities were uncovered due to the fictitious reports. There were no data and report books, the bank account is mixed between the personal and company affairs. They create their own cheating reports which are set up by themselves. They even wish that the tax officials do not need to check the tax affairs in the company if it is possible. Thus, the data reported are all fictitious and the bank flux does not appear. They are all manipulative reports. The impacts of this situation are very much felt by the employees, such as the emergence of envy, suspicion among them, being tensed when they have to manipulate data, blaming on each other, and throwing out reponsibilities to each other. Psychologically, the impact to employees leads to being depressed and stressed due to the unclear payroll, resentmented, and hurt because of unfair treatments. Lastly, it is revealed that the solution to some of these problems are by apologizing and doing permissive attitude, such as “we apologize for any error, please help us, thank you profusely”, and any kinds of apologies which will get prevalent from others. Those attitudes are also followed by permissive attitudes, for instance stating that “what we are doing is an emergency, and that the condition is very much stangling making the company havino other better choice, so please understand”. As a practical implication, this Tax Avoidance practices can bring collusion, nepotism, and even corruptions to various stakeholders, such as National Land Agency (Badan Pertanahan Nasional), the local government, tax officers and tax consultants due to the susceptible of informal negotiation.

Abstract

The role of accounting in socioeconomic development has been significantly documented in the international accounting literature. However, a majority of these prior studies represent accounting as a technical neutral craft which plays (or can play) an enabling role in national socioeconomic development. This study contends that in some situations conventional accounting with its emphasis on the entity concept can play a constraining role in national socioeconomic development efforts. This is illustrated by an empirical study of the Volta River Authority. A major public sector organisation in Ghana. The paper is informed by the Brundtland Commission's notion of sustainable development.
