However, its definition and measurement method are not coherent and are presented imprecisely in both textbooks and scientific publications. This results in a great deal of freedom among authors in the selection of measures for estimating operating leverage and the interpretation of the results, which has a negative impact on functionality for synthesis and theory building. Although some authors made such reservations clear as early as the 1980s, the situation has not changed. The article critically analyses the operational leverage measures used in recent publications and proposes to organize and refine the concept of operational leverage as leverage to increase value added and profit at a given output level using a trade-off mechanism between variable and fixed costs. The measure of this leverage is the share of fixed costs in total costs measured at the break-even point.","PeriodicalId":357263,"journal":{"name":"Managerial Accounting eJournal","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-04-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115129786","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}

{"title":"The Impact of Vertical and Horizontal Wage Dispersion on Employee Collusion and Effort in Tournaments","authors":"Lan Guo, Kun Huo, Theresa Libby","doi":"10.2139/ssrn.3576680","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.2139/ssrn.3576680","url":null,"abstract":"We investigate the effect of vertical wage dispersion, defined as the difference in wages between superiors and subordinates, on subordinates’ behaviors in a competitive setting. We propose that higher vertical wage dispersion shifts subordinates’ pay referent from peers to superiors, thereby reducing their motivation to compete and increasing collusion against the superiors. Our experimental study tests this likelihood in a repeated tournament where the employee that exerts the highest effort wins the prize. Consistent with our predictions, we find that higher vertical wage dispersion increases subordinates’ desire to reduce the vertical pay gap and increases their trust in other subordinates. As a result, collusion increases and total effort drops. Crucially, we find that when vertical pay dispersion is high, the introduction of horizontal wage dispersion between subordinates shifts their pay referent back to their peers, creating the opposite effects on employee effort and collusion. We contribute to the growing research on pay dispersion by studying how wage differences alter employees’ pay referent for social comparison, which affects how they interact with their peers. We also extend tournament research by studying how a contextual variable outside the tournament, i.e., ex ante wage dispersion, could affect employees’ willingness to compete or to collude. An implication of our finding is that high vertical wage dispersion may make tournament incentives less effective for organizations.","PeriodicalId":357263,"journal":{"name":"Managerial Accounting eJournal","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-04-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130137853","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}

Classroom, extracurricular, and internship are the main strategies to build students’ CNC. This study aims to identify the impacts of classroom learning, extra-curricular activities, internship and community service on CNC. \u0000Methodology: The study employs a quantitative approach by using accounting students at Universitas Negeri Semarang as a population. The study employs a five-point-Likert scale to collect data from accounting students in the fourth year. Student engagements are used to measure classroom, extra-curricular activities, internship and community service. Descriptive, correlation and regression techniques are used to analyze data. \u0000Main Findings: Classroom, extracurricular, internship and community service engagement positively and significantly influence communication and negotiation competencies. The study also shows that accounting student learns more about CNC in the internship and community service activities. \u0000Applications of this study: ASEAN member countries have ratified Mutual Recognition Arrangement (MRA) where accountants from a member country can operate their business in other member countries. To ensure prospective accountants would work well in this region, they should have good CNC. The results of the study would provide information to accounting departments on how to equip their graduates with these competencies. \u0000Novelty/Originality of this study: Research on CNC for prospective accountants seems to be limited in number since the departments of accounting pay more attention to generic accounting competencies. The study uses engagement to measure extracurricular, internship, and community service activities.","PeriodicalId":357263,"journal":{"name":"Managerial Accounting eJournal","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-03-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125781901","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}

Under the Australian insolvent trading laws, directors no longer experience 'true' limited liability, and as expected, they adjust their behaviour as a result. Identifying director's rational behaviour in an insolvent trading world is difficult as there are no formal economic models of director decision-making under Australian current corporate law. In this paper, we develop such a model primarily for private companies. We incorporate the threat of insolvent trading as well as director's tactical use of voluntary administration to avoid insolvent trading litigation. We show that neither a combination of insolvent trading or voluntary administration can simultaneously ensure creditors-best outcomes, eliminate insolvent trading and reduce director underinvestment.","PeriodicalId":357263,"journal":{"name":"Managerial Accounting eJournal","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133801051","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}

Included in this area are the definitions of descriptive, predictive, and prescriptive analytics. The study found that many of the emerging technologies required more research at a rapid pace because of the importance that management accountants play in the success of organizations. An additional area impacted is accounting education because of the need for business schools to turn out graduates with the necessary skills to meet the needs of a changing accounting profession.","PeriodicalId":357263,"journal":{"name":"Managerial Accounting eJournal","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-01-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121182451","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}

For example, accounting rates of return (ARR) are usually considered poor surrogates of the “economic rate of return” and the residual income is sometimes criticized as being periodically inconsistent with the net present value (NPV). This paper shows that the opposition accounting/economic is artificial and, taking a capital budgeting perspective, illustrates the strict links between economic measures and accounting measures. In particular, the ARR is shown to be a correct economic yield of a project and the traditional IRR is only a particular case of it. Also, maximization of the simple arithmetic mean of properly modified residual incomes is equivalent to NPV maximization, owing to its periodic consistency in the sense of Egginton (1995). The conciliation of such notions as NPV, IRR, ARR, and residual income stems from (i) the fundamental law of motion of any economic entity, (ii) the notion of Chisini mean, (iii) a modified notion of residual income which takes account of a comprehensive cost of capital.","PeriodicalId":357263,"journal":{"name":"Managerial Accounting eJournal","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-12-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115705832","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, little is known about the informativeness of summaries in disclosure documents such as security prospectuses. In this study, we develop an automatic approach for evaluating the quality of a summary in bond prospectuses. Based on this, we investigate (1) the determinants of the summary quality, (2) the reaction of retail investors to different quality levels, and (3) the informativeness of the summary quality regarding the security’s future performance. Our results suggest that firms with poor performance tend to provide low-quality summaries. Quality manipulations include significant differences in readability, specificity, tonality, use of boilerplate, and dissimilarity in content between the summary and the full prospectus. Unfortunately, retail investors seem unable to detect these reporting biases. Prospectus summaries can nevertheless be shown to be informative as their quality is closely related to the securities’ future performance, thus helping to improve investment decisions.","PeriodicalId":357263,"journal":{"name":"Managerial Accounting eJournal","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-12-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121158447","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}
