The editors of the International Journal of Critical Accounting are updating his classics for publication. This article is a chapter, entitled, 2 plus 2 equals...?

The BIG EIGHT firms, then were in charge of auditing the big corporation. The article raises interesting method of auditing that were twisted by big accounting firms. The article is a critic of failure of compliance of the most elementary GAAP rules and regulations as far as auditing of financial statements of listed corporations is involved. Interesting to see that Abe has predicted the ENRON, WorldCom, Xeros, Vivendi, you name it, saga of corporation frauds, auditing failures, etc. While we are re-publishing this great work, there are now only four big accounting firms in the USA.","PeriodicalId":343538,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Critical Accounting","volume":"25 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-07-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128410952","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}

But thanks to this complexity we can count, measure, and evaluate major global projects. Current accounts are especially suited to describe a finite and concrete world, even if it is not simple, because it was designed to be part of a cyclic and accurate time reference. But now, this mechanistic world is finished. The explosion of time is accompanied by an explosion of space. Physical boundaries are no longer barriers for telecommunications, network companies and virtual structures of all kinds. All the conditions of existence of the complexity and its acceleration are gathered, but in front of this, there is always a man with his senses and limited physical means. The fight of accounting and of the complexity of time and space seems unequal. Fortunately, accounting has a great strength and experience to address ongoing and future problems.","PeriodicalId":343538,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Critical Accounting","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-07-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114283192","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}

Using KLD's measures of environmental performance 13 of their variables were subject to factor analysis. Factor analysis is used to investigate how variables would cluster together into factors (based on the joint variations between variables) and then we investigated the association between this constructed factor and the firms' annual return. The factor analysis yielded three factors, non-chemical concern variables, strength variables and chemical concerns variable. Results point out that only the chemical concern factor is significantly associated with the firms' annual return. The results indicate that individual variables combined into an index measure may not necessarily improve or strengthen the association. Insignificant variables may dilute the significance of other variables leading to an insignificant index measure, or maybe positively (negatively) correlated variables may dominate the direction of association in a particular factor by outweighing negatively (positively) correlated variable respectively, However it highlights the true variables/factors that would better represent the construct addressed in the association.","PeriodicalId":343538,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Critical Accounting","volume":"32 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-06-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115920325","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}

A set of assessment measurements of CSR practices is expected to be suitable for their characteristics and improve their performance. Based on the survey of empirical data, the two factors of employee involvement have been shown to be the extremely important factors for CSR practices implementation in the Malaysian automotive industry.

However, its strengths became its weaknesses when the industry left the area. In addition to numerous other factors such as politics and racial tensions, Detroit's economy has degraded since the 1950s. Due to the lack of economic stimulating activities and population decline, as of 18 July 2013, the city filed for Chapter 9 Bankruptcy protection. Certain controversies surround the case regarding eligibility and creditor rights, specifically in terms of pension obligations. Can and should pensions be impaired as requested by the city? Detroit was also claiming to have more pension debt than reported on their financials. On 15 December 2013, Judge Steve Rhodes decided that pensions could indeed be impaired but any impairment would have to be approved by the courts. With that ruling, Kevyn Orr, the city's emergency manager has come up with a few proposals for settlement in regards to their pensions and the rest of the debt, some of which include severe pension impairment and outside funding made to the plan. However, no firm decision on the future of Detroit and its bankruptcy has been finalised.","PeriodicalId":343538,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Critical Accounting","volume":"16 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-06-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121150246","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}

While price changes are at the heart of a wide swath of accounting controversies, the dominant US undergraduate accounting textbooks largely ignore this underlying financial reporting conundrum. The body of the paper explores possible reasons why price change issues are being ignored, suggesting that Americans may have a socio-cultural tendency to downplay problems that defy mechanistic solutions. An appendix provides a teaching module designed to encourage syncretic thinking about the underlying causes and effects of inflation or deflation. The teaching module is intended as inspiration for other accounting educators to develop materials for teaching beyond the rules, promoting a deeper understanding of social justice issues imbedded in authoritative standards.","PeriodicalId":343538,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Critical Accounting","volume":"35 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-06-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124305803","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}

The study involved a Bourdieun analysis of the case of accountants occupying board positions in a pseudobank XYZ operating in the Nigerian banking field. The bank personnel embodies habitus through banking experience. The Bourdieun habitus and capital of both men and women accountants suggests comparable profiles relevant to the development of the accounting profession. In spite of the similarity in accounting habitus and capital, gendering is pronounced in the field of banking. By hindering more effective contribution of women accountants, the gender gap in which the males dominate directorships in the banking field constrains the development of accounting. The expressed commitment of bank XYZ to increased gender equity is useful in addressing the situation.","PeriodicalId":343538,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Critical Accounting","volume":"7 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-05-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129933596","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}

My proof is carried out by developing the part 3 of volume II of Capital. This part takes up the problems of social reproduction. There the case of simple reproduction is explained in detail, but in the explanation of the reproduction on an expanded scale you must meet a logical difficulty caused by the inconsistency of depreciation and renewal of fixed capitals. However, the schema of reproduction must have no contradiction. How to solve? In this article, the difficulty can be solved by collecting depreciation fund and distributing them socially. In Soviet and China, before the banking system was established, finance department in government would distribute fund to national companies for plant and collect depreciation fund with profit. It looked like a mystery for our capitalistic system. My paper can also make clear the reason why they adopted a strange accounting procedure.","PeriodicalId":343538,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Critical Accounting","volume":"41 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-05-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114777325","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}
