Meeting the business objectives of most companies is evaluated directly by the revenues level or indirectly by using revenue-based financial indicators like return on assets, profit margin, earnings before interests, operating earnings. From the aspect of external stakeholders, the importance of revenues is evident in independent auditor's reports, where revenue recognition is emphasized as a key audit matter in 27% of listed companies in the Republic of Croatia in 2019. In the context of considering revenues as a necessary basis in the business decision-making process, the issue of their recognition in accounting is crucial. With the objective to provide a more robust framework for revenue recognition, ease comparisons in industry, with capital markets, economy, and to offer relevant information to financial statements users in notes to financial statements, the International Accounting Standards Board issued new accounting standard in 2014 which establish the principles that an companies shall apply for revenue recognition from contracts with customers, as well as disclosure requirements in notes to financial statements. The aim is to report useful information to users of financial statements about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from a contract with a customer. After two years of application of IFRS 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers the question is what are the effects of the Standard on the disclosure of qualitative and quantitative information in the notes to the financial statements and have more transparent and robust revenue recognition rules resulted in changes in business performance? This paper aims to investigate and evaluate the effects of the application of IFRS 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers on qualitative improvements in the informative value of revenue disclosures in the notes to financial statements in the Republic of Croatia. In addition, this paper aims to evaluate the quantitative effects of the application of the Standard on the level of presented revenues for the same sample of companies. The sample of enterprises includes about forty enterprises of those industries for which the effect of the application of the new Standard was assessed as the most significant (e.g. telecommunications, construction, shipbuilding). The obtained data were analysed by content analysis method and other applicable methods of inferential statistics.","PeriodicalId":213982,"journal":{"name":"Zbornik radova - Journal of Economy and Business","volume":"3 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-12-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127056576","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}

However, continuous review of the impact of IFRS adoption is imperative to business stakeholders and accounting standards setters. This study therefore, reviewed the impact of after adopting IFRS on the global relevance of the locally produced financial statements of companies in Nigeria. The study employed a survey research design and made use of primary source of data to obtain responses through the questionnaire. A sample of ninety-six (96) respondents comprising forty-eight (48) accountants and forty-eight (48) Accounting Lecturers was purposively selected based on their availability. Multiple regression models which include regression model summary, analysis of variances (ANOVA) and Pearson correlation were used to analysis the data at 5% level of significant using the Statistical Packages for Social Sciences version 20. Findings from the study revealed that the F-statistics of the ANOVA is positive (4910.868) and statistically significant (0.00 < 0.05.). The study therefore concluded that the IFRS, after its adoption exert positive impact by adding value to the volume of accounting information generated; improving the quality of accounting reports and enhancing global relevance of financial statements in Nigeria. The study recommended that those companies that are yet to migrate to IFRS should do so for them to enjoy the benefits of its adoption.","PeriodicalId":213982,"journal":{"name":"Zbornik radova - Journal of Economy and Business","volume":"38 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-12-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121545148","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}

New conceptual frameworks of NPO management emphasise performance management and financial management relying on accounting information. Therefore, understanding of accounting becomes crucial in achieving NPO success. However, as opposed to the companies that employ economists (who are familiar with accounting), NPOs usually lack in these experts and the questions regarding the understanding and the use of accounting information are being raised. Empirical research results indicate that conversance with accounting could be better in NPOs in Croatia. Hypotheses regarding the positive impact of conversance with accounting on decision-making and financial planning are supported.","PeriodicalId":213982,"journal":{"name":"Zbornik radova - Journal of Economy and Business","volume":"74 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-12-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115557074","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}

From the short run ECM and long run models, it was found that a statistically insignificant positive relationship exists between external debt and real output both in the short run and the long run. The statistical properties of the estimated ECM model show that the model is consistent, efficient and feasible for forecast and policy making.The recommendations that emanated from the study suggest that the Nigerian government should improve on fiscal policy governance, entrenching transparency and professionalism in the management of the country’s debt and that the larger public finance for debt should be made to be viable instrument for economic growth.","PeriodicalId":213982,"journal":{"name":"Zbornik radova - Journal of Economy and Business","volume":"115 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-12-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123786182","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}

Internal factors are represented by financial ratiosof liquidity, leverage and activity, and economic conditions bythe selected macroeconomic variable. Financial ratios used in this research areCurrent ratio (CR), Debt ratio (DR) andTotal Asset Turnover (AT),and macroeconomic variable isGross Domestic Product (GDP). The performance of the companies is measured by Net Profit Margin (NPM). The idea behind this research is based on the fact documented in the literature that some companies see marketing costs as an investment, andnot only do not cut their spending on marketing in times of economic downturn, but even increase it. If many companies behave this way, this should reflect on the profitability of companies in advertising industry, witha negative relationship between GDP and their profitability.\u0000\u0000The population of this study is comprised of all the companies operating in Croatia whose main activity is promotion. According to National Classification of Activities (NACE Provisions 2007) the mentioned activity is classified in the section M 73 - Advertising and market research, and this section includes advertising agencies (M 7311), media advertising companies (M 7312) and market research companies (M 7320). The financial ratios for those companies were measured from 2009 to 2018. A multiple regression model was used and secondary data were analyzed.\u0000\u0000Among the four independent variables, only AT does not show the significance on NPM. The results of multiple regression analysis show that DR, CR and GDP have significant correlation with the financial performance of promotion companies in Croatia; DR and GDP are negatively correlated,while CR is positively correlated to the industry performance measured with NPM. \u0000\u0000The contribution of this paper is twofold: on one side, it contributes to the literature dealing with the impact of financial ratios and macroeconomic variableson financial performance, on the other side it contributes to the literature that studies the relationship between marketing costs and economic activity.","PeriodicalId":213982,"journal":{"name":"Zbornik radova - Journal of Economy and Business","volume":"34 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-12-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124804141","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}
