Abstract:
AbstractThe development and configuration of the regulatory framework of the accounting systems in Romania and Hungary took place in different ways. Among the reasons for the diversities in these countries’ accounting systems, the following can be certainly mentioned: different purposes of taxation, legal structure, the accountancy’s connection with the corporate law and family law, diversification on corporate financing policy, and cultural heterogeneity. Both countries quickly caught up with the international accounting harmonization standards. The adaptation of the international accounting standards has many advantages and disadvantages; these have been discussed in several previous researches. This paper aims at comparing the Romanian and Hungarian states’ accounting regulations from the early 1990s, which were implemented in order to harmonize the states’ accountancy regulations with the international standards, and their impact on the economy, based on secondary analysis.

Abstract:
The focus of the study is on financial reporting for non-U.S. firms registered with the Securities Exchange Commission (SEC) but using International Accounting Standards (IAS). This study addresses two issues, (1) whether the comparability of financial reporting among firms using IAS in credit and equity financing jurisdictions increases over time and (2) the associated capital market implications. The motivation for the study is the SEC's ongoing assessment of IAS for possible use by non-U.S. registrants for listing and capital raising in the U.S. Previous research on variations in financial reporting practices has revealed distinctly different types of financial reporting depending on country of origin. Moreover, some research suggests that such differences in financial reporting tend to persist in spite of harmonization efforts of accounting standards. This study suggests that there may be a systematic difference between credit and equity firms' financial reporting that is manifested by the fact that credit firms' adjustments to U.S. GAAP are greater than the adjustments made by equity firms. This systematic difference has had the following capital market consequences for credit firms, (1) a decreasing strength of association between accounting earnings and share prices post-1994, (2) an increased bid-ask spread post-1994, and (3) a decreased trading volume post-1994. This may be an indication that on the average firms reporting under IAS fail to meet an important part of the SEC's second assessment criterion with respect to high quality and full disclosure, namely comparability. In addition, it seems that the revisions made by International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) have not resulted in more congruent financial reporting among firms reporting under IAS over time.

With the globalization of the economy and the growing participation of several world investors in financial markets, combining the political, economical and social differences of each country, the varying Accounting Statements based on principles, standards, procedures or idiosyncratic accounting patterns become inadequate to provide comprehensible and useful financial information to the users at international level. Considering a country¿s conditions, peculiarities and the stage of development, the need to promote the convergence of the effective accounting practices in the public sector with the emerging international accounting standards is imperative as the public entities endeavor to provide transparent and comparable accounting information that can be understood by financial analysts, investors, auditors and other users, independent of their origin and location. Consequently, the objective of this research was described through the following questions: Which are the main differences between the international and local accounting norms applicable to the public sector in Brazil? Which are the main differences between the applicable international accounting norms and the practices adopted by the Brazilian public sector? And, which are the main differences between the practices adopted by the entities of the Brazilian public sector and the practices adopted by entities of the public sector of countries that formally follow the international accounting norms? The methodology adopted in this research was the one of comparative analysis between standards and practices. To provide a basis for the comparative analysis, the Brazilian standards were used for the public sector and the international standards were identified by consulting with the main international accounting committees. In the comparative analyses of norms adopted in national accounting statements the financial accounting statements of the Municipal districts of Rio de Janeiro and of São Paulo were used, and compared with the international accounting statements of New Zealand. The results of these comparative analyses provide important conclusions about the convergence and harmonization processes in accounting norms and practices for the public sector mainly as they demonstrate some of the conflicts among the recent efforts to base and harmonize accounting practices in the near future, but today significant differences remain between the norms and practices. It was also noticed that, in practice, the divergence in Brazilian accounting practices from the international standards are accentuated by the recognition of the registrations of the budgetary execution in the patrimonial accounting; and, the comparison with the practices adopted by New Zealand demonstrated that the foreign country¿s advances towards harmonizing its standards to the international norms and practices in such an important way that New Zealand independently overcomes the minimum exigencies of harmonization, which in practice, is more complete than the practices currently adopted in Brazil.
Com a globalização da economia e a crescente participação de diversos investidores mundiais no mercado financeiro, somadas as diferenças políticas, econômicas e sociais de cada país, as Demonstrações Contábeis baseadas nos princípios, normas, procedimentos ou padrões contábeis idiossincráticos se tornaram inadequadas para prestar informações financeiras úteis aos usuários a nível internacional, no que se refere à compreensividade. A necessidade de promover a convergência das práticas contábeis vigentes no setor público com as normas internacionais de contabilidade tendo em vista as condições, peculiaridades e o estágio de desenvolvimento do nosso país torna imperativo que os entes públicos disponibilizem informações contábeis transparentes e comparáveis que possam ser entendidas e compreendidas por analistas financeiros, investidores, auditores e demais usuários, independentemente de sua origem e localização. Diante disso, o problema desta pesquisa foi descrito através das seguintes questões: Quais são as principais diferenças entre os padrões contábeis internacionais e os aplicáveis ao setor público no Brasil? Quais são as principais diferenças entre os padrões internacionais aplicáveis ao setor público no Brasil e as práticas efetivamente adotadas no setor público brasileiro? E, quais são as principais diferenças entre as práticas efetivamente adotadas pelas entidades do setor público brasileiro em relação às práticas adotadas por entidades do setor público de países que formalmente seguem os padrões internacionais? A metodologia adotada nesta pesquisa foi a de análise comparativa entre normas e práticas. Para entendimento da análise comparativa e a amostra, foram utilizadas as atuais normas brasileiras para o setor público, e para as normas internacionais foram identificados e consultados os principais comitês internacionais. Nas análises comparativas que adotaram demonstrações contábeis nacionais foram utilizadas as demonstrações financeiras dos Municípios do Rio de Janeiro e de São Paulo, que foram confrontados com as demonstrações contábeis internacionais da Nova Zelândia. As análises comparativas e análise de resultados gerou conclusões importantes sobre o processo de convergência e harmonização contábil para o setor público principalmente por demonstrarem que o confronto entre os padrões evidenciaram o surgimento recente de uma nova ordem para fundamentar práticas contábeis harmônicas no futuro próximo, mas hoje ainda guarda significativa diferença entre os padrões. Percebeu-se também que na prática contábil brasileira as divergências entre os padrões internacionais é bastante acentuada e sofre influência dos aspectos do reconhecimento dos registros da execução orçamentária na contabilidade patrimonial; e o confronto com as práticas adotadas pela Nova Zelândia demonstrou que o país estrangeiro avança em direção a harmonizar seus padrões aos internacionais de forma tão importante que por conta própria supera as exigências mínimas de harmonização, alcançando conjunto mais completo na prática e com isso distancia-se ainda mais da prática por hora adotada no Brasil.

O presente estudo investiga o nível de convergência de práticas contábeis em empresas industriais dos países do MERCOSUL e da Comunidade Andina. Partindo de uma base teórica com a qual se identificou o atual estágio de adoção das Normas Internacionais de Contabilidade, nos países destes dois blocos econômicos, foi possível comparar a convergência normativa com a prática contábil. Para tanto, analisou-se a mensuração e a evidenciação dos principais elementos patrimoniais numa amostra de trinta empresas industriais, nos países destes dois blocos econômicos sul-americanos. A amostra foi escolhida por critérios de intencionalidade e acessibilidade, sendo os dados obtidos a partir das páginas web dos órgãos nacionais encarregados de controlar e fiscalizar os mercados de capitais, em cada um dos países pesquisados. Os dados coletados foram submetidos à análise descritiva, para elaboração de quadros-resumos relativos às práticas contábeis das empresas de cada país, no que concerne à mensuração e evidenciação dos seguintes elementos patrimoniais: Contas a Receber de Clientes (Receitas), Estoques, Investimentos, Imobilizado e Intangível. As análises realizadas possibilitaram que se identificasse o atual estágio de convergência em termos de normas e práticas contábeis, nos dois blocos econômicos. Em geral, observou-se que a prática contábil, nas empresas pesquisadas, ainda é muito heterogênea nos diferentes países. Enquanto que, em alguns países, constatou-se convergência quase total às normas internacionais emitidas pelo IASB, em outros, este processo parece distante. Observou-se também que a adoção das normas internacionais não significa a observância e a convergência na prática. Por fim, foi possível perceber que há ainda um caminho a percorrer, para que, nos países do MERCOSUL e da Comunidade Andina, as práticas contábeis estejam completamente harmonizadas, convergindo aos padrões de contabilidade internacionalmente aceitos.
The present study investigates the level of accounting convergence practices in businesses in the countries of Mercosul and the Andean community. Departing from a theoretical basis in which we have identified the current stage of use of the International Accounting Standards in countries from these two economical segments, it was possible to compare the convergence regulations with the accounting practices. To do so, we have analyzed the measurement and the disclosure of main assets in 30 companies in these South American countries. This countries were sampled by intentionality criterion and accessibility, the data was acquired from the web pages of national entities in charge of controlling the capital markets in each of the sampled countries. The collected data was submitted to descriptive analysis and summary maps were made concerning the accounting practices of the companies in each country in what concerns the measurement and disclosure of the following assets: accounts receivable (revenue) stocks, investment, intangibles and fixed assets. The analysis carried out, made it possible to identify the current stage of convergence concerning regulations and accounting practices in these countries. It was verified that accounting practices are very different in the countries sampled. While in some countries we found almost total convergence with the accounting practices issued by the IASB, in some others this process was somewhat distant. It was also observed that the adoption of International regulations does not mean convergence in practice. Finally we observed that there is a long way for the accounting practices of the Mercosul countries and Andean Community to be harmonized, and converge with the internationally accepted accounting standards.

Trabelsi, Raoudha. "Harmonisation comptable internationale dans les pays émergents : contigences environnementales ou pressions institutionnelles ? : cas de la Tunisie." Thesis, Montpellier 1, 2011. http://www.theses.fr/2011MON10048.

Full text
Abstract:
La recherche conduite se focalise sur le cas de la Tunisie, un pays émergent, initialement imprégné d'une culture comptable continentale, qui s'est engagé en 1997 dans une réforme avant-gardiste d'harmonisation comptable internationale, devançant plusieurs pays, dont ceux de l'Union Européenne, en abandonnant son Plan Comptable Général hérité de la période coloniale française, pour adopter son premier système comptable de type anglo-saxon, largement inspiré du référentiel international. Alors que la normalisation comptable internationale a considérablement évolué depuis 1997, notamment par le remplacement en 2001 de l'IASC par l'IASB, et l'introduction des IFRS, paradoxalement, très peu de révisions ont été apportées au système tunisien, laissant ainsi apparaître un écart, qui s'est progressivement creusé, entre normes tunisiennes et normes internationales. Cette situation interroge les motivations réelles ayant provoqué la réforme de 1997, qui peut être due aussi bien à un réel besoin local de se joindre à la sphère mondiale, qu'à une volonté d'afficher une étiquette ou un "Label ", au sens de Daske et al. (2007), afin de se conformer aux recommandations des organismes internationaux, et d'attirer différentes parties prenantes étrangères. Il convient de ce fait de s'interroger sur la nature des facteurs à l'origine du processus d'harmonisation comptable internationale en Tunisie : s'agit-il de contingences environnementales, ou de pressions institutionnelles? Ainsi, conformément à une structure de recherche classique, avec l'exposition d'une revue de la littérature, suivie d'une étude exploratoire du terrain exploitant qualitativement des entretiens réalisés auprès de professionnels tunisiens, pour mener enfin l'étude empirique proprement dite, dans une démarche quantitative, notre recherche se base sur la théorie de la contingence et l'approche néo-institutionnelle, pour répondre à la problématique suivante : Dans un pays émergent historiquement à tradition comptable continentale, comment se mesure l'avancement du processus d'harmonisation internationale et quels en sont les déterminants? Exploitant des réponses recueillies de juin à septembre en 2009 puis en 2010, via un questionnaire administré auprès de professionnels exerçant au sein de cabinets d'expertise comptable tunisiens et de cadres comptables exerçant au sein d'entreprises localisées en Tunisie, cette étude a pu montrer un faible niveau général d'harmonisation comptable internationale en Tunisie, de jure, mais surtout de facto. Aussi, l'analyse a montré que les facteurs étudiés susceptibles d'avoir un impact sur l'avancement du processus d'harmonisation sont à la fois contingents et néo-institutionnels, ces derniers étant les plus influents, pour les cabinets, alors qu'ils sont exclusivement néo-institutionnels, pour les entreprises. Le modèle comptable anglo-saxon ne serait donc pas pertinent pour toutes les entités économiques tunisiennes, la réforme de 1997 n'étant principalement que le résultat de pressions institutionnelles, notamment étrangères, exercées sur les choix économiques et politiques du pays, plutôt que d'un besoin émanant des différents acteurs interagissant dans le tissu économique tunisien local. En l'occurrence, parmi les parties exerçant une influence sur les entités tunisiennes pour les adapter à la culture anglo-saxonne des normes internationales, cette étude a identifié, les réseaux internationaux d'expertise comptable et d'audit, notamment les Big4, les groupes de sociétés multinationales, les parties prenantes étrangères des entreprises exportatrices, etc. Ainsi, seules les entités à dimension internationale présentent des niveaux élevés de familiarisation avec les IFRS
The study focuses on the case of Tunisia, an emerging country, initially impregnated by a continental accounting culture, having started in 1997 a pioneering reform of international accounting harmonization. Thus, ahead of several countries including those of the European Union, Tunisia replaced its General Accounting Plan inherited from the French colonial period, to adopt its first Anglo-Saxon accounting system, largely inspired by the international accounting system. But while the international accounting standardization had changed considerably since 1997, with the replacement of the IASC in 2001 by the IASB, and the introduction of IFRS, adding a "financial" dimension to the accounting information, paradoxically, very few revisions were made to the Tunisian system, showing a gap between Tunisian and international standards, that kept progressively widening. This situation of Tunisian accounting standardization, between a need and a will to make up the process of harmonizing with the international accounting standards, and a maintain of the Tunisian standards inspired by revised and even repealed old international standards, questions about the real motivations behind the 1997's Tunisian accounting reform. It may as well have been legitimized by a local real need to join the global sphere, or as a desire to display a label as defined in Daske et al. (2007), in order to comply with the recommendations of international organizations, and to attract foreign stakeholders. We therefore question the nature of the factors behind the process of international accounting harmonization in Tunisia: is it due to environmental contingencies, or institutional pressures? Following a conventional research structure, with a literature review, an exploratory study exploiting qualitatively interviews conducted with Tunisian professionals, and an empirical study using a quantitative approach, our research is based on the contingency theory and the neo-institutional approach, to address the following research question:In an emerging country historically impregnated with continental accounting tradition, how to measure the progress of the international harmonization process and what are its determinants? Exploiting responses collected via a questionnaire conducted from June 2009 to September 2009, and from June 2010 to September 2010, and administered to professionals working in Tunisian accounting firms or affiliated to the accounting departments of different Tunisian firms, the study showed the stagnation of the international accounting harmonization process in Tunisia. Also, the analysis showed that there are both contingent and institutional factors behind the launch of harmonization process, for accounting professionals working in accounting firms, and only institutional factors for professionals affiliated to accounting departments of Tunisian firms. The Anglo-Saxon accounting model would not be relevant for all economic entities in Tunisia, since the 1997 reform is principally the result of institutional pressures, mostly international ones, impacting the economic and political choices of the country, rather than a choice made to fulfill a need expressed by the various actors interacting in the local Tunisian economy. Among the parties that push Tunisian entities to be familiarized with the Anglo-Saxon culture of the international standards, our study identified the international accounting and auditing networks, including the Big4, the multinational groups, the stakeholders of foreign exporting firms, etc. Thus, in Tunisia, only the entities dealing with such international environment have high levels of familiarization with IFRS standards
