Consequently, it has acquired a greater capacity to develop expertise and provide better quality audit services. It is expected that PWC charges fee premiums in return on investment for the capacity building. This study investigates how audit fee (AF) premiums and how it relates to auditors' industry specialisation and reputation. The study utilises data of 679 Bursa Malaysia listed companies in 2001 and 796 in 2005. AF premiums are calculated using the Simunic (1980) AF model. Industry specialisation is determined based on the number of audit clients at 20% threshold. Results indicate PWC obtains highest average AFs, hence, maintains its industry leadership. Results show that PWC does not charge AF premiums over and above the amount charged by the Big 5/4 regardless of whether they are industry specialists or not, except on smaller clients.","PeriodicalId":379725,"journal":{"name":"American J. of Finance and Accounting","volume":"166 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-11-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129165695","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 the daily data set, it is found that relative to its traditional index fund counterpart, DJIMTR tracks the benchmark index with a lower tracking error; thus reflecting the performance of the benchmark index more effectively. Our performance proxies, mean returns and risk adjusted returns, also demonstrate that DJIMTR outperforms its traditional index fund counterpart. In addition, as a result of various tests performed through VAR models, it is found that pricing deviation in the DJIMTR is of a temporary nature, meaning that 'the DJIMTR is efficiently priced'. In the regression model, the significant factors that explain transient premiums' size are identified as transaction cost, trading volume, intraday volatility and institutional ownership ratio. The results of the study are expected to provide new insights for founders who are planning to create mutual funds to track Islamic market indexes and to guide individual investors targeting Islamic indexes in their investment decisions.","PeriodicalId":379725,"journal":{"name":"American J. of Finance and Accounting","volume":"49 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-11-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133884415","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}

To achieve the objectives, the stochastic frontier approach is used in the first stage of the analysis to obtain cost and profit efficiency scores. In the second stage, the efficiency scores obtained are regressed with a measure of bank's equity capital and profitability by using the Tobit regression model. The results show that equity to total assets ratio has a negative effect on efficiency indicating that either the use of debts in financing bank operations or less regulatory condition contribute to higher efficiency. The results also found that return on assets have a positive effect on profit efficiency suggesting the needs for efficient utilisation of banks assets.","PeriodicalId":379725,"journal":{"name":"American J. of Finance and Accounting","volume":"16 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-11-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121933382","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}

Liquefying home equity is the major reason for the cash-out refinancings, whereas the cash-in refinancings are primarily for an earlier mortgage payoff. This study analyses responses of each type of refinancing to innovations in the stock market, mortgage rates, effective maturity and home appreciation rates and the relative importance of these innovations to refinancing activities using orthogonalised impulse response and variance decomposition matrixes from vector autoregression. We find that changes in stock prices do appear to impact mortgage refinancing decisions.","PeriodicalId":379725,"journal":{"name":"American J. of Finance and Accounting","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-11-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129036573","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}

Building on the new paradigm shift of FDI attractiveness towards a host country's existing corporate governance environment, accounting/disclosure standards, property rights, openness of markets and legal/institutional infrastructure, this study provides new evidence of a significant positive bi-directional relationship between corporate governance and FDI. However, there is no significant effect of adoption of international accounting standards and legal origin on improving corporate governance and FDI inflows in the recipient country. But disclosure has significant positive impact on FDI inflows. While ownership diffusion has a significant positive effect on corporate governance, it shows a negative influence on FDI inflows. These evidences provide policy makers an insight to frame county-level strategy and implement appropriate measures in attracting FDI and improving quality of country-level corporate governance in an internationally competitive environment.","PeriodicalId":379725,"journal":{"name":"American J. of Finance and Accounting","volume":"56 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-08-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128337519","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}

On the other hand, undervaluation should make her a more attractive host. This study presents an attempt to examine the impact of exchange rate misalignment on portfolio inflows in Malaysia. Results show that events of misalignment have a negative impact on portfolio inflows. Specifically, overvaluation has significant deterrent effect on portfolio inflows but the opposite could not be implied in the case of undervaluation. Therefore, exchange rate policies should be geared to keep the exchange rate in line with the economic fundamentals so as to avoid prolonged overvaluation.","PeriodicalId":379725,"journal":{"name":"American J. of Finance and Accounting","volume":"7 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-08-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130738685","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}
