To understand the status of sustainability accounting with regard to public interest, in this paper we examine the peer-reviewed accounting literature of the last 10 years using a robust bibliometric approach. Through co-citation analysis, bibliographic coupling, and co-word analysis, we find that despite the “old guard” headwinds, sustainability accounting has been progressing into traditional accounting. Disciplines that appear to intersect with sustainability accounting include assurance, taxation, marketing, and supply chain management; conversely, disciplines that lag behind include financial and management accounting. Compared to sustainability reporting and corporate social responsibility, environmental, social, and governance is less researched. The journal with the largest number of sustainability accounting articles is <i>Meditari Accountancy Research</i>, while <i>Critical Perspectives on Accounting</i> has garnered the most citations among the journals.

Overwork, or working long hours, is a prevalent phenomenon, particularly among professional workers. Despite its pervasiveness, overwork has seldom been addressed in the accounting literature or studied as a distinct construct in managerial accounting research. Consequently, there is limited understanding of the management controls that contribute to overwork and the consequences of overwork in a management accounting context. This is despite overwork directly relating to an assumption in the management accounting literature that management controls are needed to motivate otherwise effort-averse employees. In this paper, the existing literature on employee overwork, primarily sourced from outside of accounting, is systematically reviewed and categorized into reasons for overwork and consequences of overwork. I discuss reasons at the economic, individual, job, and organization levels that are proposed as antecedents of overwork in the literature. I also find that there are negative consequences to overwork in the work domain as well as outside of work and to employee health, in addition to important macro-level consequences. Additionally, some relevant findings from the accounting literature are discussed. This paper also identifies significant gaps in the overwork literature from a management accounting perspective and discusses future research opportunities.</p>","PeriodicalId":43435,"journal":{"name":"Accounting Perspectives","volume":"24 3","pages":"813-840"},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2025-06-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/1911-3838.12409","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145012713","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The study reveals that SEC comment letters can lead to improved financial reporting and disclosure quality by reducing information asymmetry and enhancing stakeholders' decision-making. However, the review also identifies some unintended consequences, including increased insider trading and audit fees. The findings have significant implications for various stakeholders. Regulators can use the insights to conduct more effective and efficient reviews, while practitioners can develop best practices to navigate the SEC comment letter process.

Carillion issued a series of write-downs that hurt investor confidence and led to debt covenant violations.

To do so, she needs to analyze the company's risky contracts, governance structure, auditors, and accounting choices. The case allows students to explore a rich and complex scenario of business failure. It is set in the United Kingdom, but Carillion reports under IFRS and faces business and governance challenges that translate easily to the Canadian context and elsewhere. The case is best suited to MBA, Executive MBA, and upper-year undergraduate classes in accounting or governance.

The results indicate that investors with lower emotion-understanding ability displayed biased judgments influenced by their feelings that were evoked by irrelevant content. Notably, the findings show that the negative and positive feelings elicited by irrelevant information led to lower investor judgments. Conversely, those with higher emotion-understanding ability were able to resist these biases, focusing on the relevant information.

In an experiment where participants set budgets and work on production tasks, we find that positive affect leads to a greater decrease in budgetary slack under honest peer influence compared to negative affect—specifically, budget-setters create the least amount when they are in positive affect and peer influence is honest.

Another challenge is renegotiating some CO<sub>2</sub> reduction initiatives with suppliers so that greater overall CO<sub>2</sub> reductions can be achieved. Finally, decentralization of objectives and budgets for CO<sub>2</sub> reductions needs to be considered.

The case uses the official transcript of questioning of the then-CEO of Wells Fargo, John Stumpf, by Senator Elizabeth Warren during a US Senate hearing entitled “An Examination of Wells Fargo's Unauthorized Accounts and the Regulatory Response.” Exposure of the “unauthorized accounts” was a forerunner to the highlighting of several Wells Fargo scandals in following years. At times, the questioning of Stumpf was adversarial, and it provides an opportunity to examine leadership-in-action from an MC (and related) perspective.
