ABSTRACT Accounting studies have inconsistent conclusions about whether including Key Audit Matters (KAM) improves the communicative value of audit reports. We experimentally investigate the joint effect of investors’ trait scepticism and the familiarity and readability of KAM on the communicative value of audit reports. Our results indicate that KAM readability enhances the communicative value of audit reports for less (more) sceptical investors when they are less (more) familiar with the issues discussed in the KAM. Additionally, using an eye-tracking device, we find that the communicative value of audit reports for nonprofessional investors depends on their visual attention paid to the KAM. These findings show that the positive effect of including KAM in audit reports is contingent on the user’s trait scepticism and the content and form of the KAM. Our conclusions should be of interest to regulators and auditors when considering what and how to communicate to different financial statement users.
摘要会计研究对包括关键审计事项(KAM)是否能提高审计报告的沟通价值的结论并不一致。我们通过实验研究了投资者的特质怀疑与KAM准则的熟悉性和可读性对审计报告沟通价值的共同影响。我们的研究结果表明,当持怀疑态度的投资者对KAM准则中讨论的问题不太熟悉时,KAM准则的可读性提高了审计报告的沟通价值。此外,使用眼动追踪设备,我们发现审计报告对非专业投资者的沟通价值取决于他们对KAM准则的视觉关注。这些发现表明,将KAM准则纳入审计报告的积极影响取决于用户的特质怀疑以及KAM准则的内容和形式。在考虑如何与不同的财务报表用户沟通时,监管机构和审计师应该对我们的结论感兴趣。

ABSTRACT Based on many cases of publicity using social media in the market, this paper empirically examines the damage of microblog publicity to market efficiency by using the sample of IPO companies. The results show that the companies posting microblogs during the IPO publicity period have higher IPO underpricing, and the more the number of microblogs, the richer the content, the higher the proportion of microblogs in the operating activities, the higher the IPO underpricing. These relationships are stronger in the enterprises with higher degree of information asymmetry and management valuing social media more. Furthermore, microblogs posted during the IPO period mainly influence investor sentiment, especially small investors. In addition, the short-term stock market performance of the companies posting microblogs is significantly worse. This paper provides a theoretical basis for standardizing the information disclosure behavior of listed companies using social media.
摘要基于市场上许多利用社交媒体进行宣传的案例,本文以IPO公司为样本,实证检验了微博宣传对市场效率的损害。研究结果表明,在IPO公示期内发布微博的公司IPO抑价较高,且微博数量越多、内容越丰富,微博在经营活动中所占比例越高,IPO抑价也越高。这些关系在信息不对称程度较高、管理层更重视社交媒体的企业中更为牢固。此外,IPO期间发布的微博主要影响投资者情绪,尤其是小投资者。此外,发布微博的公司短期股市表现明显较差。本文为规范上市公司利用社交媒体的信息披露行为提供了理论依据。

ABSTRACT Borrowed from the relevant research on the impact of name uniqueness on one’s personality, our study extends the research perspective to its impact on external auditors. Using the data of Chinese listed firms in 2009–2019, we find a significantly positive relationship between CEOs’ name uniqueness and audit fees. Further study shows that this influence could be explained by its impact on CEOs' personality traits, resulting in strategic deviance or increased audit effort, rather than its impact on auditors' first impression. The impact of CEOs’ name uniqueness on audit fees is more pronounced when CEOs’ characteristics are more susceptible to their name uniqueness, when companies are more likely to attract auditors’ attention, or when auditors are more likely to be affected by their uniqueness. This paper extends the impact of CEOs’ personality traits on audit fees, and expands the understanding of CEOs and audit decision-making.
摘要借鉴名字唯一性对人格影响的相关研究,将研究视角扩展到名字唯一性对外部审计人员的影响。利用2009-2019年中国上市公司的数据,我们发现ceo姓名唯一性与审计费用之间存在显著的正相关关系。进一步的研究表明,这种影响可以通过其对ceo人格特质的影响来解释,从而导致战略偏差或增加审计工作,而不是对审计师的第一印象的影响。ceo姓名唯一性对审计费用的影响在ceo的特征更容易受到其姓名唯一性的影响、公司更容易吸引审计人员的注意、审计人员更容易受到其姓名唯一性的影响时更为明显。本文拓展了ceo人格特质对审计收费的影响,拓展了对ceo与审计决策的理解。

Does the standardisation of tax enforcement improve corporate financial reporting quality? 税收执法的标准化是否提高了企业财务报告的质量?

ABSTRACT Previous studies of tax enforcement neglect the effect of tax-penalty discretionary benchmarks on corporate financial reporting quality. In China, province-level variations in implementing tax-penalty discretionary benchmarks provide a quasi-natural experiment to explore how tax enforcement standardisation affects corporate financial reporting quality. We show that when tax-penalty benchmarks are implemented in every province, there is a more pronounced positive relationship between tax enforcement standardisation and corporate financial reporting quality compared with the ex-ante period. Moreover, this positive relationship is primarily driven by firms with higher degrees of tax avoidance and collusion with tax collectors. Consequently, the implementation of tax-penalty benchmarks means that the standardisation of tax enforcement can improve corporate financial reporting quality. In turn, tax enforcement standardisation can optimise the external governance environment for listed firms and improve financial information disclosure in capital markets.
以往关于税收执法的研究忽视了税收处罚酌情基准对公司财务报告质量的影响。在中国,各省在实施税收处罚酌情基准方面的差异为探索税收执法标准化如何影响公司财务报告质量提供了一个准自然的实验。我们发现,当每个省份都实施税收处罚基准时,税收执法标准化与企业财务报告质量之间的正相关关系比事前更为明显。此外,这种正向关系主要是由避税程度较高的公司和与收税人员的勾结所驱动的。因此,税收处罚基准的实施意味着税收执法的标准化可以提高企业财务报告质量。而税收执法规范化又可以优化上市公司的外部治理环境,提高资本市场的财务信息披露水平。

ABSTRACT Taking a chairman’s native place of origin in Northern (Southern) China as a proxy for chairman individualism (collectivism), this paper examines how such individualism affects firms’ cost structure decisions within a sample of Chinese listed firms. The results show that individualistic chairmen tend to choose a rigid cost structure. Further analysis shows that this relationship exists only in non-state-owned enterprises, when the board has a low level of independence, and when the firm has a low level of financial leverage. This paper contributes to the literature on firms' cost structure decisions in response to risk and on the effect of managerial individualism (collectivism) on corporate strategic cost management. Moreover, this paper provides implications for Chinese firms to realise the advantages of strategic cost management through managers' leadership roles and to achieve transformation and sustainable development.
摘要本文以董事长在中国北方(南方)的籍贯为代表,考察了董事长个人主义(集体主义)对中国上市公司成本结构决策的影响。结果表明,个人主义董事长倾向于选择刚性成本结构。进一步分析表明,这种关系只存在于非国有企业,当董事会独立性水平较低时,当公司财务杠杆水平较低时。本文对企业应对风险的成本结构决策以及管理个人主义(集体主义)对企业战略成本管理的影响进行了研究。此外,本文还为中国企业通过管理者的领导作用发挥战略成本管理的优势,实现转型和可持续发展提供了启示。

ABSTRACT The China Securities Regulatory Commission (CSRC) has randomly selected two audit firms each year to check their problems in management and internal control since 2016. Using the random inspections from 2016 to 2018, we construct a staggered DID model and find that the possibility of audit firms engaging in audit opinion shopping decreases after they are inspected. To explore the underlying logic, we document that: (1) the random inspections strengthened audit firms’ management of branch offices, resulting in a more pronounced effect on the practice of branch audit offices; and (2) the policy improved audit firms’ internal control, leading to more pronounced effect in audit firms with a heavy workload and loose control. Further, we show that punishments following the inspections strengthen the basic effect, while the effect of random inspections would be weakened for the big 10 audit firms.
摘要自2016年以来,中国证监会每年随机抽取两家审计事务所对其管理和内部控制方面的问题进行检查。利用2016年至2018年的随机检查,我们构建了一个交错DID模型,发现审计事务所在被检查后参与审计意见购买的可能性降低。为了探究其内在逻辑,我们发现:(1)抽查加强了审计事务所对分支机构的管理,对分支机构审计实践产生了更明显的影响;(2)该政策改善了审计事务所的内部控制,在工作量大、控制松散的审计事务所中效果更为明显。此外,我们还发现,对10大审计事务所来说,检查后的惩罚强化了基本效果,而随机检查的效果会减弱。

Confucian culture and accounting conservatism: evidence from China 儒家文化与会计保守主义:来自中国的证据

ABSTRACT This study investigates the influence of Confucian culture on accounting conservatism. Using a sample of Chinese-listed firms during the period of 2001–2017, our findings reveal that Confucian culture, measured as the number of Confucian temples (schools) within a specific radius around a firm, is significantly positively associated with accounting conservatism, suggesting that Confucian ethics and culture promote accounting conservatism. Moreover, litigation risk attenuates the positive effect of Confucian culture on accounting conservatism. The above findings are robust to a variety of sensitivity tests using alternative proxies for Confucian culture and accounting conservatism. Furthermore, our main conclusions still stand after using the instrumental variable (IV) two-stage regression method and the differential model approach to address the endogeneity issue. Lastly, the positive effect of Confucian culture on accounting conservatism is only valid for non-BIG4-audited firms, firms with lower managerial ownership and firms in highly competitive industries.
摘要本研究探讨儒家文化对会计稳健性的影响。以2001-2017年的中国上市公司为样本,我们的研究结果表明,儒家文化(以公司周围特定半径内的孔庙(学校)数量衡量)与会计稳健性显著正相关,这表明儒家伦理和文化促进了会计稳健性。此外,诉讼风险削弱了儒家文化对会计稳健性的积极作用。上述发现对于使用儒家文化和会计保守性替代代理的各种敏感性测试是稳健的。此外,在使用工具变量(IV)两阶段回归方法和差分模型方法解决内生性问题后,我们的主要结论仍然成立。最后,儒家文化对会计稳健性的积极影响仅对非四大审计事务所、管理层持股比例较低的事务所和竞争激烈的行业的事务所有效。

ABSTRACT We find that when a major customer has greater market power in its industry, its supplier firm exhibits better performance. The effect of the major customer’s market power on its supplier’s performance is more pronounced when the economic bonding between the customer firm and the supplier is stronger, when the customer firm is geographically closer to its supplier, and when the relationship between the two firms matures. Furthermore, we document that a customer firm’s product market power increases demand stability for its supplier, reduces the supplier’s cost of debt, and improves the supplier’s investment efficiency.
摘要我们发现,当大客户在其行业中拥有更大的市场支配力时,其供应商企业表现出更好的绩效。当客户企业与供应商之间的经济联系更强,当客户企业在地理上更接近其供应商,以及当两家公司之间的关系成熟时,大客户的市场力量对其供应商绩效的影响更为明显。此外,我们证明了客户企业的产品市场力量增加了其供应商的需求稳定性,降低了供应商的债务成本,并提高了供应商的投资效率。

ABSTRACT Based on the data of A-share listed central state-owned enterprises (CSOEs) and non-state-owned listed companies in China from 2003 to 2019, we use propensity score matching and the difference-in-difference method to examine the impact of CSOEs’ income distribution policy on corporate cash holding decisions. The results show that the policy implementation improves corporate cash holding levels. Further analysis found that: (1) corporate financial flexibility can alleviate the policy effect; (2) when the control distance is shorter, and environmental uncertainty is higher, the policy effect is stronger; and (3) the policy has a lagged effect. This study theoretically expands the research on the economic consequences of income distribution policy and the influencing factors of cash holdings. It further aids policymakers in improving the state-owned capital gains distribution system, deepening the reform of state-owned enterprises, and providing empirical evidence at firm level for investors to understand the real impact of the policy.
基于2003 - 2019年中国a股上市央企和非国有上市公司的数据,采用倾向得分匹配和差中差法研究了央企收入分配政策对企业现金持有决策的影响。结果表明,政策的实施提高了企业的现金持有水平。进一步分析发现:(1)企业财务弹性可以缓解政策效应;(2)当控制距离越短、环境不确定性越高时,政策效果越强;(3)政策存在滞后效应。本研究从理论上拓展了收入分配政策的经济后果和现金持有量影响因素的研究。进一步帮助政策制定者完善国有资本收益分配制度,深化国有企业改革,并为投资者了解政策的真实影响提供企业层面的经验证据。

It further aids policymakers in improving the state-owned capital gains distribution system, deepening the reform of state-owned enterprises, and providing empirical evidence at firm level for investors to understand the real impact of the policy.","PeriodicalId":37215,"journal":{"name":"China Journal of Accounting Studies","volume":"10 1","pages":"323 - 344"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-07-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45009327","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

ABSTRACT Taking Chinese A-share listed firms from 2014 to 2018 as our samples, this paper investigates the impact of regulatory information disclosure on corporate over-financialisation behaviour from comment letters. The empirical results show that financialisation-related comment letters can effectively reduce the behaviour of corporate over-financialisation, and this positive governance effect is more pronounced in companies with strong market arbitrage motivation. Further tests show that the more intensity of the financialisation-related comment letters, the higher the governance effect of comment letters on over-financialisation. Specifically, the governance effect of inquiries mechanism is more significant when the financialisation-related comment letters have the questions of “over-financialisation’. From the specific influence mechanism, the governance effect of financialisation-related comment letters is achieved by potential violation cost and the pressure of market attention. Finally, the governance effect of financialisation-related comment letters on over-financialisation can spill over to non-comment-letter-receivers in the same industry or in the same corporation groups.
摘要本文以2014-2018年中国A股上市公司为样本,从评论信的角度考察了监管信息披露对企业过度融资行为的影响。实证结果表明,与金融化相关的评论信可以有效地减少企业过度金融化的行为,这种积极的治理效应在市场套利动机较强的公司中更为明显。进一步的测试表明,与金融化相关的评论信的强度越大,评论信对过度金融化的治理效果就越高。明确地当金融化相关评论信存在以下问题时,质询机制的治理效果更为显著“过度金融化”。从具体的影响机制来看,与金融化相关的评论信的治理效果是通过潜在的违规成本和市场关注的压力来实现的演讲小组。
