This study critically evaluated tax collection as the source of revenue generation and its impact on rural development. In order to achieve this, multiple regressions were used to analyse the data. The results show that total tax collected has a positive relationship with revenue generated. The provision of social amenities has an inverse relationship with total tax collected. Granger causality test underscore the uni-directional causality from revenue generation and provision of social amenities. Therefore, all should endeavour to pay their taxes. Government should provide all the necessary amenities and make available financial services to the people. This will enhance their contributions to economic, social development and overall gross domestic product.. The implication is that there will be improved standard of living, self reliance and eradication of poverty in the country.","PeriodicalId":343538,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Critical Accounting","volume":"54 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-07-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127456763","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}

This paper explores whether accounting research has been colonised by considering sociologically the essential elements of colonisation and whether they can be applied to accounting research. A critical examination of the elements of colonisation - control over communication, capital, culture, and education; elitism; and English as the dominant language - finds that accounting research has been colonised by acts of symbolic violence, which has resulted in misrecognised class distinctions and neo-colonial dependency relationships within accounting research. It urges accounting researchers recognise the neo-colonial power relationships that have been imposed upon them by the cultural imperialism of the dominant research culture.","PeriodicalId":343538,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Critical Accounting","volume":"3 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-04-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121815646","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 work on the other hand also present some thoughts on how the business structures of these countries could evolve under the framework of a control theory. The African reality, where electronic data processing, and social networking sites are on the agenda, combines with the pressures of governments an inquisition to the limit of bearable.

Instead, accounting research articles should be judged, and always should have been judged, by the content of the article published regardless of where it is published. Judging the quality of research by mere reference to the journal in which it is published is irrational. And, more importantly, making faculty personnel decisions based, at least in part, on the judged 'quality' of someone's research, much less on the mere 'quality' of the journal in which it is published, is a denial of the academic freedom to which all faculty are entitled in their research and teaching.","PeriodicalId":343538,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Critical Accounting","volume":"197 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-04-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133015058","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}

Generally speaking, profit and loss calculation that many accounting scholars stress, seems to be common to all histories of economic activities. I believe that even Robinson Crusoe calculated profit and loss in a solitary island in the distant ocean. Therefore, it may be difficult for the historical character to be clarified from the view point of the function of calculating profit and loss. However, DEB has another function of dividing profit. Here, I am elucidating the ground that this latter function has made DEB become an important institution in capitalistic society.","PeriodicalId":343538,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Critical Accounting","volume":"3 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-04-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121939728","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}

This paper develops the inflection point theory proposed before by Ienciu and Matis (2014). By means of this theory, new inflection points are identified and analysed based on two determining factors: period of time expressed in months for each stage and amplitude expressed in number of comments letters received following the publication of a discussion paper/exposure draft. The paper results may help academics, practitioners and corporate reporting regulators better identify each change occurred in the evolution of IAS 38. By identifying new inflection points in the development of IAS 38, having had significant contribution to the inflection point theory in the accounting field, opportunities for future research are identified. The study extends the existing literature in the field of inflection point theory and highlights the contributions of different fields of interest in the inflection point arena.","PeriodicalId":343538,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Critical Accounting","volume":"21 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-11-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133507534","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}

Our results suggest that concentration in the market for audits of German listed companies is persistently high. Regarding audit quality, clients of Big Four auditors show significantly lower amounts of discretionary accruals and lower likelihoods of error findings by the German enforcement system than clients of non-Big Four firms. When controlling for firm-specific characteristics, the difference remains observable only for the enforcement-error-proxy. The results suggest that differences in discretionary accruals might not primarily be influenced by auditor choice, but by different firm-characteristics between Big Four and non-Big Four clients. Nevertheless, while Big Four auditors might not be able to better constrain earnings management than non-Big Four auditors, they seem to be more successful in preventing 'real' accounting mistreatments, indicating higher audit quality.","PeriodicalId":343538,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Critical Accounting","volume":"15 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-11-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115505919","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}

Based on the analysis of Spearman's rank correlation coefficients, this paper provides a comparison of different content analysis techniques by applying those to the reports regarding the internal control and risk management system relevant for the accounting process of the German DAX-30 companies for the fiscal year 2011. The results show that computerised measures lead to similar results as qualitative disclosure quality measures on a firm level (except for density of provided information). The exception for density might be driven by information overload or by the fact that the applied disclosure score does not capture all relevant information. However, on the item level the keyword analysis does not provide similar results as the disclosure score methodology. Therefore it seems to be indispensable to rely on researchers judgments if beyond disclosure quality on a firm level also the content should be examined.","PeriodicalId":343538,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Critical Accounting","volume":"13 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-11-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129623650","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}

Increased materiality judgments in financial accounting and external audit: a critical comparison between German and international standard setting 财务会计与外部审计中重要性判断的增加:德国与国际标准制定的关键性比较

Therefore, materiality guides the entity to present relevant information and to prevent information overload. This decision is mostly subjective and is based primarily on the individual's judgement in applying vague legal concepts. This could result in a greater expectation gap between management information and investors' understanding. The EU accounting directive 2013/34/EU standardises materiality to harmonise with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). However, the German legislator did not change the national accounting rules German Commercial Code (GCC). Moreover, the new EU audit regulation (EU) No 537/2014 requires the disclosure of the quantitative level of materiality thresholds in the audit report. Guidelines remain inadequate, although they are intended to provide clearly defined rules and to avoid boilerplate checklists. Our paper focuses on a conceptual comparison of materiality between the GCC and IFRS/ISA, and on the implications for eliminating the challenge involved in information overload.","PeriodicalId":343538,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Critical Accounting","volume":"91 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-11-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123828380","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}
