We examine whether internal governance, the process through which the power to make decisions is distributed between CEOs and their subordinates, can influence the level of conservatism in such decisions. We show that firms with better internal governance are more conservative. We also find that the effect is more pronounced for firms with less powerful and older CEOs, those with subordinate executives who contribute more, and those who are more mature. We conduct various tests that confirm the robustness of our results. Unlike other studies that focus only on CEOs, we examine how the top management team as a group and the power distribution between CEOs and key subordinates shape financial reporting quality. Our study can inform various stakeholders, including firms aiming to appoint executives and strengthen their internal governance.\u0000 JEL Classifications: G34; M12; M41; M50.","PeriodicalId":45457,"journal":{"name":"Journal of International Accounting Research","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2023-08-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45497277","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 a staggered difference-in-differences research design, we find that IC effectiveness has worsened following this reform, but this deterioration is partially mitigated when mandated firms report their CSR engagement. Additional analyses demonstrate that this deterioration is further lessened when CSR reports are prepared in accordance with Global Reporting Initiative reporting guidelines or assured by external auditors and when firms spend more on CSR activities. Finally, cross-sectional analyses suggest that CSR engagement mitigates the deterioration in IC effectiveness more in non–state-owned enterprises and in firms that have better financial performance, lack political connections, or are located in regions with higher market development or social trust.\u0000 Data Availability: Data are available from the public sources cited in the text.\u0000 JEL Classifications: M4; M48.","PeriodicalId":45457,"journal":{"name":"Journal of International Accounting Research","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2023-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45225003","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}

IAS 19R removes the corridor approach in accounting for actuarial gains and losses on defined benefit plans. This rule change likely weakens the financial position of most firms that previously used the corridor approach upon adoption and subsequently increases balance sheet volatility. Using a sample of listed firms in Norway, we find that the market generally reacts negatively to IAS 19R events, but stock price responses are insignificantly different for affected and unaffected firms, suggesting that shareholders view the standard as value neutral. However, market reactions are more negative for firms with higher bankruptcy risk. Additional analyses indicate that market reactions vary with discretion in actuarial assumptions and funded status. Overall, our results document how investors respond to the amendments to pension accounting rules under IAS 19R.","PeriodicalId":45457,"journal":{"name":"Journal of International Accounting Research","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2023-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47806729","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 study investigates the time-series trend of the timing role of accruals and finds a temporal decline in the magnitude of the correlation between accruals and cash flows in our sample of 51 countries over 1991–2019. This decline is primarily caused by increases in loss firms and operation volatility. Several accounting and economic factors, such as the use of accrual accounting, discretionary accruals, matching between revenues and expenses, IFRS adoption, and accounting connectedness, are positively associated with the strength of the accrual-cash flow relation and therefore decelerate the decline of the accrual timing role. Additional analysis suggests that the decline in accrual timing over time is present regardless of a country’s economic growth, legal tradition or institutions, and the extent of the use of accrual accounting.\u0000 JEL Classifications: M41.","PeriodicalId":45457,"journal":{"name":"Journal of International Accounting Research","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2023-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41954409","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}

In addition, we find that firms operating in countries with better-developed labor markets tend to reduce their environmental impacts through the purchase of goods and services rather than through substantive changes to their own operations.
