In this study, we investigate the effect of IFRS adoption on pay-performance sensitivity (PPS) in the European Economic Area (EEA) and show that the documented positive effect is driven by one country: Germany. In pooled country tests, we explore the effect of individual institutional attributes and find that differences between IFRS and local GAAP, as well as proxies for different types of enforcement, moderate the IFRS effect. However, these findings are contingent on including Germany in the sample. This raises the possibility that the studied institutional attributes proxy for Germany, and that it is the unique combination of institutional attributes in Germany that explains the increase in PPS at the time of IFRS adoption. Our findings suggest that researchers should be careful when generalising results from multi-country studies or attributing the IFRS effects to individual institutional variables.

One of the most significant changes under IFRS 9 is the shift to considering and incorporating forward-looking information to forecast expected credit losses (ECL). This study aims to understand how bank managers incorporate forward-looking information, such as future economic projections, in assessing significant credit risk deterioration, and how bank managers evaluate the reasonableness of different forecast horizons in order to project lifetime ECL. We conducted an experiment with 72 bank managers. Our results reveal that bank managers are reluctant to incorporate good news when historical information indicates a high default risk and potentially large credit loss, and that their ECL estimates are influenced by the upward or downward shift in the forecasted losses. We view these results as consistent with the unconditional conservatism of the new ECL model.
《国际财务报告准则第9号》下最重大的变化之一是转向考虑和纳入前瞻性信息来预测预期信贷损失(ECL)。本研究旨在了解银行经理如何在评估重大信贷风险恶化时纳入前瞻性信息,如未来经济预测,以及银行经理如何评估不同预测范围的合理性,以预测终身ECL。我们对72名银行经理进行了一项实验。我们的研究结果表明,当历史信息表明违约风险高和潜在的大额信贷损失时,银行经理不愿意纳入好消息,并且他们的ECL估计受到预测损失向上或向下变化的影响。我们认为这些结果与新ECL模型的无条件保守性一致。

The impact of the adoption of IFRS 11 on the comparability of accounting information 采用《国际财务报告准则第11号》对会计信息可比性的影响

We analyse the impact of the introduction of IFRS 11 on the comparability of accounting information. IFRS 11 eliminated proportionate consolidation as an alternative to accounting for interests in joint ventures. Our sample comprises 2,059 firms with interests in joint ventures from 26 countries over the period 2005–2016. Overall, the comparability of accounting information decreased after the adoption of IFRS 11, but the effect is not uniformly distributed internationally. Further analysis of the information disclosed by the venturers in the notes indicates that the increase in disclosure requirements proposed by IFRS 12 may not fully mitigate the consequences of the elimination of proportionate consolidation in IFRS 11.
我们分析了引入IFRS 11对会计信息可比性的影响。《国际财务报告准则第11号》取消了按比例合并作为合资企业权益会计的替代方法。我们的样本包括2005-2016年期间来自26个国家的2059家拥有合资企业权益的公司。总体而言,采用《国际财务报告准则第11号》后,会计信息的可比性有所下降,但其影响在国际上并不均匀。对风险投资方在附注中披露的信息的进一步分析表明,《国际财务报告准则》第12号提出的披露要求的增加可能不会完全减轻《国际财务报表准则》第11号中取消按比例合并的后果。

Voluntary vs. mandatory: the role of auditing in constraining corporate tax avoidance in small private firms 自愿与强制:审计在限制小型私人公司避税中的作用

This paper examines whether the status of the financial statement audit, as either voluntary or mandatory, is related to the corporate tax avoidance behaviour of private firms. Using the Swedish audit regime shift in 2010 which removed mandatory audit requirements for small private companies, we find that voluntarily audited firms exhibit a 19% decrease in total income tax burden relative to firms subject to mandatory audit following the regulatory change. This decrease corresponds to an average SEK 15,000 (approximately 1,500 euros) lower tax payment and is driven primarily by increasing conforming tax avoidance. We also find that increasing tax avoidance in voluntarily audited firms occurs, at least partly, due to impaired auditor independence under the voluntary audit regime. Finally, we show that the non-tax costs of tax avoidance restrict these tax-driven reporting changes. Our findings contribute to the literature on auditors’ constraining effect on corporate tax avoidance as well as to the debate over the costs and benefits of a mandatory financial statement audit regime.

Effects of corporate financial distress on peer firms: do intra-industry non-distressed firms become more conditionally conservative? 企业财务困境对同行企业的影响:行业内非困境企业是否变得更有条件保守?

We study whether public announcements (through delisting warnings) of financial distress of some firms in an industry affect the conditional accounting conservatism of intra-industry non-distressed firms. We hypothesize that the lenders of non-distressed firms perceive higher riskiness and demand for stricter debt covenants and more efficient monitoring of debt contracts when some firms show signals of financial distress in that industry. Intra-industry non-distressed firms increase their levels of conditional conservatism to meet the lenders’ demands for stricter monitoring of debt contracts and to reduce debt costs. Using the delisting warning data from the Chinese stock exchanges, we find that financial distress announcements lead to increases in conditional conservatism of non-distressed firms in that industry. We provide new evidence for the spillover effects of financial distress within an industry and the usefulness of conditional conservatism in debt contracts.
我们研究了一个行业中一些公司的财务困境公告(通过退市警告)是否会影响行业内非困境公司的条件会计稳健性。我们假设,当一些公司在该行业表现出财务困境的信号时,非困境公司的贷款人会意识到更高的风险,并要求更严格的债务契约和更有效的债务合同监控。行业内未陷入困境的公司提高了其条件保守主义水平,以满足贷款人对债务合同进行更严格监控的要求,并降低债务成本。利用中国证券交易所的退市预警数据,我们发现财务困境公告会导致该行业非困境公司的条件保守性增加。我们为行业内财务困境的溢出效应以及条件保守主义在债务合同中的有用性提供了新的证据。

We study the effect of the pay gap between the chief executive officer (CEO) and the next layer of executives in the top management team (TMT)—a proxy for promotion-based tournament incentives—on conditional conservatism in financial reporting. We find that higher levels of tournament incentives are associated with less conservative financial reports. Our results hold in an instrumental variable (IV) analysis and regressions using alternative measures of both pay gap and accounting conservatism. Furthermore, we find that senior executives’ engagement in tournaments for promotion is affected by their perceived probability of success. Specifically, the negative relationship between the pay gap and conservatism is stronger (weaker) when the CEO is more (less) likely to be replaced. Overall, our results indicate that pay disparities within the TMT play an important role in financial reporting.
我们研究了首席执行官(CEO)和高层管理团队(TMT)中下一层高管之间的薪酬差距对财务报告中条件保守性的影响——这是基于晋升的锦标赛激励的代理。我们发现,较高水平的比赛激励与较不保守的财务报告相关。我们的结果持有工具变量(IV)分析和回归使用替代措施的薪酬差距和会计稳健性。此外,我们发现高层管理人员对晋升比赛的参与受到其感知成功概率的影响。具体来说,当CEO更有可能(更不可能)被替换时,薪酬差距与保守主义之间的负相关关系会更强(更弱)。总体而言,我们的研究结果表明,薪酬差异在TMT内部的财务报告中发挥着重要作用。

This paper investigates the impact of the minimum wage (MW) on corporate tax avoidance. By exploiting heterogeneity in the MW level across cities and over time in China, we find that increases in the MW are associated with greater tax avoidance by firms. Our results are robust to the consideration of a sample of contiguous firms in two adjacent cities subject to different MWs, and a difference-in-differences research design that exploits the enactment of the Labor Contract Law in 2008 as an exogenous shock to the MW. In cross-sectional analyses, we find that the positive impact of MWs on tax avoidance is more pronounced for firms with higher labour intensity, greater financial constraints, and less product market power and in regions with laxer enforcement. Our paper suggests that the MW policy imposes substantial, albeit likely unintended, externalities on corporate tax. Our findings can help inform policymakers of more potential implications of MW policies.
本文研究了最低工资对企业避税行为的影响。通过利用中国各城市和一段时间内MW水平的异质性,我们发现MW的增加与企业更大的避税行为有关。考虑到两个相邻城市的连续企业样本受到不同MW的影响,以及利用2008年《劳动合同法》的颁布作为MW的外生冲击的差异研究设计,我们的结果是稳健的。在横截面分析中,我们发现,MWs对避税的积极影响在劳动强度更高、财务约束更大、产品市场力量更小的公司以及执法更宽松的地区更为明显。我们的论文表明,MW政策对公司税施加了巨大的外部性,尽管可能是无意的。我们的研究结果可以帮助决策者了解MW政策的更多潜在影响。

In this study, we examine whether audit fees are associated with job satisfaction among accounting firms’ employees. We use novel data obtained from social media site Glassdoor.com and find negative associations between audit fees and accounting firms’ job satisfaction. Our results are robust to alternative measures of employee satisfaction and correct for potential endogeneity problems using 2SLS regression models with instrumental variables (IVs), audit office fixed effects, and changes analysis. Our additional analysis reveals that compared to former employees’ ratings, current employees’ ratings play a more important role in determining the pricing of audit services. Moreover, audit fees are higher for firms audited by accounting firms with greater employee satisfaction and providing more nonaudit services. We further find that employee satisfaction at any audit level is associated with lower audit fees. Our study extends the extant literature on employee satisfaction and provides useful information for accounting firms regarding the importance of employee satisfaction to audit fees.

Auditors’ self-assessment of engagement quality and the role of stakeholder priority 审计人员对参与质量的自我评估和利益攸关方优先事项的作用

This study investigates auditors’ assessment of the quality of their own audit engagements, utilising survey data gathered from a Big Four audit firm in Sweden. We first examine to what extent auditors’ self-reported audit quality threatening behaviours (AQTBs) in the audit process are reflected in their assessment of overall audit quality (OAQ). The results indicate that AQTBs overall and all individual AQTBs are associated with quality assessment, though with variations in their significances. Second, we examine whether AQTBs and OAQ are associated with an auditor’s stakeholder priority, i.e. which stakeholder the auditor considers as her highest priority in the audit work. We find that auditors who consider the employer as the highest priority report more AQTBs. However, priorities are not related to OAQ. Furthermore, auditors prioritising the client or employer tend to assess the overall audit quality as being higher than what the AQTBs would suggest (i.e. they over-assess the quality). Interestingly, the findings regarding priorities are only evident among partners. In sum, the findings of this study provide important insights on how auditors themselves assess their audit quality, and on the role of auditors’ stakeholder priorities.
这项研究利用从瑞典四大审计公司收集的调查数据,调查了审计师对自己审计业务质量的评估。我们首先考察审计师在审计过程中自我报告的审计质量威胁行为(AQTB)在多大程度上反映在他们对整体审计质量(OAQ)的评估中。结果表明,总体和所有个体的AQTB都与质量评估有关,尽管其意义存在差异。其次,我们检查AQTB和OAQ是否与审计师的利益相关者优先级相关,即审计师认为哪个利益相关者是她在审计工作中的最高优先级。我们发现,将雇主视为最高优先级的审计师报告的AQTB更多。然而,优先事项与审调处无关。此外,优先考虑客户或雇主的审计师倾向于评估整体审计质量高于AQTB的建议(即他们过度评估质量)。有趣的是,关于优先事项的调查结果只在合作伙伴中明显可见。总之,这项研究的结果为审计师自己如何评估其审计质量以及审计师利益相关者优先事项的作用提供了重要的见解。
