We review how whistleblowing diamond factors affect whistleblowing intention which are moderated by perceived organizational support. This quantitative research was conducted using a case study survey method with a sample of 220 village officials in Minahasa Regency. This study uses the whistleblowing diamond theory, which explains four type of factors that can influence a whistleblower's intention to conduct whistleblowing, namely: pressure/incentives, opportunity, rationalization, and capability. This study found that the factors that significantly influenced whistleblowing intentions were opportunity, rationalization, and capability with a significance of p<0.05, 0.001, 0.004, and 0.033, respectively. Meanwhile, pressure and incentive factors proved not to significantly affect whistleblowing intentions, with a significance value of p>0.05, 0.779, and 0.924, respectively. This study also found that the moderating factor of perceived organizational support increased the influence of pressure, incentives, opportunity, rationalization, and capability on the intention to report violations with a significance value of 0.0001 to 0.005.

Accounting standards, as expressions of public policy, are not constantly impartial in that they inflict benefits on some individuals in society to the disadvantage of others. This has been as a result of the power play between the US GAAP and the proponents of IFRS. This paper presents the political factors affecting the accounting standard setting. The paper discusses the debate between the adoption of accounting principles (IFRS) or accounting rules (GAAP). It presents the convergence of accounting standards and the future of IFRS.

This research was conducted because there was a phenomenon of financial restatement by manufacturing companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange in 2015-2020. This study was conducted with the aim to test whether there was an influence of the independent variable corporate governance and company-specific characteristics on the dependent variable of financial restatement. The population in this study were manufacturing sector companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange for the 2015-2020 research period. The sampling technique used was purposive sampling so that a sample of 42 companies was obtained for 6 years and produced 252 observational data. The data analysis technique used in this research was logistic regression analysis. The results of the study showed that the audit quality variable had a positive effect on financial restatement, while the variable size of the board of commissioners, independent commissioners, audit committee expertise, audit quality, executive compensation, company age, company performance, company leverage and liquidity have no effect on financial restatement.

This article is a literature review the factors that affect the performance accountability report of government agencies (LAKIP) of local governments in Indonesia which is the dependent variable. While the independent variable is compliance with legislation, competence of human resources, clarity of budget goals. The hypothesis that is built is to examine the influence between variables so that it can be used in further research. The results of the literature review show the influence of the variable compliance with regulations, human resources competency and clarity of budget goal to LAKIP local governments in Indonesia.

Decision-making is difficult for everyone, including MSMEs. This study describes the relationship between behavioral bias, namely loss aversion bias and regret aversion bias on decision making. Financial literacy becomes an intervening variable in explaining the relationship between the two. This study took 125 SMEs in Bululawang using a questionnaire. Data analysis was performed using SEM analysis and using the AMOS application. The results show that loss aversion bias and regret aversion bias affect investment decision-making. Likewise, financial literacy can be an intervening variable that can affect the relationship between the two

Using a sample of up to 2,503 initial public offerings (IPOs) in 32 countries from 2011–2017, we predict and find that higher levels of country‐level accounting enforcement are associated with lower levels of IPO underpricing. IPOs in countries with a relatively low accounting enforcement score (second quintile) exhibit a mean underpricing of 19%, whereas the mean underpricing amounts to just 9% in countries with a relatively high score (fourth quintile). The results remain qualitatively the same when we employ a multi‐level model or a difference‐in‐difference design. In countries that substantially strengthened their accounting enforcement in the 2003–2009 period, the level of IPO underpricing decreased significantly. We show that accounting enforcement matters for the cost of going public.

We apply game theory to model how alternative mandatory audit firm rotation regimes can affect the strategic interaction between auditee and auditor firms, and analyze potential consequences on detection risk and impairment of auditor scepticism. The major results suggest that: (1) relative to an initial state with no rotation requirement but high probability for impaired auditor scepticism, imposing either short‐term or long‐term mandatory audit firm rotation will remove the threat to auditor scepticism and lead to higher audit fees and lower detection risk; (2) relative to long‐term mandatory audit firm rotation, imposing a short‐term rotation will lead to lower audit fees and higher detection risk, resulting from greater informational frictions. We further find that imposing supplementary regulatory instruments, such as increased regulatory scrutiny of the auditee and/or auditor, can be used to lower the detection risk and increase audit quality. We discuss implications of these findings for empirical research.
