Abstract:

The global environmental crisis has turned accounting scholars’ attention to environmental accounting (hereafter EA). With the gap of EA research and practice between China and the western world, it is necessary to elaborate on this gap through accounting professionals’ environmental awareness (perceptions), which has tended to become the key to adopting EA practices in accounting firms. This has led to the main research question: what are accounting professionals’ perceptions of EA? To illustrate what factors would lead accounting firms (not) adopting EA practices, institutional theory is use

Abstract:

Significant prior work exists in both the macroeconomics field and in finance and accounting into determinants of stock returns, although very few studies have tried to link both types of information together. This research seeks to bridge that gap. Seven macroeconomic variables and 15 accounting identities are hypothesised to explain stock returns, using a stepwise multiple regression procedure. Three macrovariables, GDP, real interest rates, and an exchange rate variable, together with four accounting variables are found to explain 3 month returns in an estimation sample. The results are con

Abstract:

Interest in environmental issues has grown in the last three decades. This increase in interest has been attributed, at least in part, to global environmental problems (such as the thinning of the ozone layer global warming deforestation species extinction air, water, and land pollution and toxic waste) and industrial accidents (such as Bhopal in 1984 Chernobyl in 1986 and the Exxon Valdez in 1989). This rise in environmental awareness has resulted in an increase in research relating to the environment in many disciplines including accounting. However, the literature review indicated that rese

Abstract:

This research explores whether Environmental Management Accounting can be applied to assist an Australian cogeneration company in improving both its financial performance as well as its environmental performance.

The heat generated is then used to produce steam to meet the customers' requirements as well as boost the production of electricity. Therefore, cogeneration provides greater efficiencies compared to traditional elec
