The system of accounting and reporting, the level of their informative value and analytics do not fully meet the needs of internal and external users, which leads to a decrease in the effectiveness of management decisions. In the development of accounting and reporting forms, the characteristics of the technologies related to the activities of the organization and the corresponding organizational structure should be taken into account as fundamental factors in the formation of an information system.

This article considers internal control as an important element of the management system in the issue of the organization's personnel continuity. Objectives. The article aims to analyze the existing forms of organization of internal control in agricultural entities and determine the most effective one, taking into account the scale of activity of an economic entity and the specifics of the industry. Methods. For the study, I used comparative and case analyses, analytical research methods, and the computational and graphical method. Results. Based on the practices studied, the article generalizes and groups the tasks of internal control over personnel settlements, taking into account the specifics of the agricultural industry. The article proposes the author-developed control procedures to be used at each stage of checking personnel payroll settlements to improve the effectiveness of the results of internal control and minimize the risks of undetected distortions in accounting and financial reporting data. The main violations committed when accounting for the reflection of wage transactions by agricultural organizations are analyzed, and their negative consequences are determined. Conclusions and Relevance. Agricultural production is always associated with certain risks, due not only to the commercial activities of the organization (business risks), but also to the specific features of this industry.

This article focuses on identifying trends related to the optimization of data disclosure in reporting and addressing constraints, including in relation to disclosure-sensitive information.

The article aims to identify the classification features in relation to mandatory disclosure, determine the existing trends in the optimization and restrictions of information disclosure in financial and non-financial reporting, as well as describe the prospects for solving the problems of transparency of reporting prepared under the conditions of information restriction. Methods. For the study, we used the methods of logical analysis, systematization, data grouping, comparison, and average values. Results. The article proposes classification features in relation to information to be disclosed in financial statements, identifies trends in the disclosure of non-financial information, evaluates approaches to the statutory regulation of disclosure of information in financial statements proposed in international practice, and formulates proposals regarding the prospects for disclosure of reporting information. Conclusions. The processes of improving the transparency of information in the reporting of Russian organizations are multidirectional, depending on the situation in the economic and political sphere. Some organizations need to limit the publication of both individual information and financial statements as a whole, but at the same time, the number of enterprises providing non-financial reporting in order to strengthen their positions in financial markets and attract investors gets increasing. The regulatory framework for these processes is aimed at developing optimal approaches to the application of restrictions on information disclosure and providing methodological support to ensure a balance between the interests of preparers and users.","PeriodicalId":507452,"journal":{"name":"International Accounting","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-12-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139177463","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}
