Abstract:

Whilst globalization has taken command of supply chains worldwide, and human rights practices are being respected with stricter conviction, the burden to eradicate forced Labour and modern slavery from global supply chains has shifted from governments to corporations. In this article Klynveld Peat Marwick Goerdeler (KPMG) offers a global perspective on how the US government has ramped up efforts in eliminating forced Labour linked to the importation of goods into the US. The article addresses both policy and legislative authorities as well as case studies linked to company initiatives. A further observance addressing leading practices is offered in order to provide a more human rights compliant policy for corporations.

Abstract:

This research work examines the factors that determine the selection of external auditor among Global Brand listed companies in Nigeria. The variables of Audit Big 4 firms which include Deloitte, Klynveld Peat Marwick Goerdeler, (KPMG) and Price Water House Coopers (PWC) where selected as choice target for this research work. Big four audit firm of Ernst’s & Young (E&Y) was excluded in the sample as it is found not to have provided audit services to any of the selected global brand listed company in Nigeria during the period covered by this study. The study employed the methodology of Multinomial Probit Regression (MPR) analysis in X-raying the data. Empirical evidence shows that there is a significant positive relationship between firm size and choice of external auditor’s selection for the big four audit firms of KPMG and Deloitte. The study also provides a revelation that the relationship between the variable of firm size is negative and statistically significant with audit firm of Price Water House Coopers (PWC). The research work carefully recommends that global brand companies in Nigeria with interest to hire audit services of Deloitte and KPMG must ensure that its total asset is significantly large. But suffice to state here that this may not apply to the audit firm of Price Water House Copper Corporation where the variable of audit fee is a significant determinant in the quest for employing it audit services.

Abstract:

The accounting profession has changed considerably over the past twenty years or so. This has led to the new accounting curriculum undergoing many changes such as increased financial fraud coverage, laws relating to financial crime and globalisation and financial security issues. However, there have been many financial scandals in the 21st century in the African and American context. Several notable incidents of ethical misconduct such as Enron, Klynveld Peat Marwick Goerdeler (KPMG), and Satyam (which negatively impact the world economy) are examples of misuse of accounting to cover the truth. Lack of ethics is believed to be responsible for most of these scandals. This study, therefore, aims at understanding the reflections on the issue of ethics in teaching accounting. The study followed a case study approach and involved a small sample of accounting lecturers from UKZN and UNIZULU. The study's findings suggest that special topical issues on ethics should be taught in each accounting course. For example, in the auditing course, ethical procedures should be touched upon, and students should be sensitized about accountants' ethical behaviour.

Abstract:

On January 18, 1995, the University of California convened a special meeting to discuss the business operations of its five academic medical centers in San Francisco, Sacramento, San Diego, Los Angeles, and Irvine. Because of the rapid developments occurring in the maturing and competitive managed care market in California, the academic medical centers are facing unprecedented financial pressures. Charles Townsend, of the accounting firm KPMG Peat Marwick, stated that the medical centers' staff would need to be cut by at least 2500 full-time equivalents, including physicians and nurses, by the year 1999. William Kerr, Director of the University of California San Francisco Medical Center, forecasted a comprehensive restructuring and streamlining of services. Jordan Cohen, president of the Association of American Medical Colleges, described the challenges facing these five academic medical centers and others like them as "truly seismic."1 The rise of managed care medical systems during the last 5 years has led many researchers to question whether the academic medical center will survive in its current state.2-6 Market forces are changing the provision of medical care at an extremely fast pace. By 1998, an estimated 60% of people living in US cities will be covered by managed care health plans. Fewer hospital admissions, shorter hospital stays, and decreased reimbursements associated with managed care have decreased hospitals' operating gains. Academic medical centers, such as those in California, are facing pressure to lower health care delivery costs. The probable decreases in Medicare and research funds under the current Congress also threaten the financial revenues of academic medical centers.

European Scientific Journal ESJ 1 (January 11, 2023). http://dx.doi.org/10.19044/esipreprint.1.2023.p65.

Full text

Abstract:

This study investigated the influence of entrepreneurial orientation on business model innovation in medium enterprises in Kenya. The study was grounded on the dynamic capabilities view. A descriptive cross-sectional survey research design was adopted to achieve the study’s objective. The sampling frame was the Klynveld Peat Marwick Goerdeler (KPMG) East Africa and the Nation Media Group annual Top100 companies in Kenya. Stratified random sampling was utilized to derive 221 companies that were used in the study. Primary data were collected from single respondents comprising senior managers of the participating firms. A total of 134 questionnaires were analysed. Ordinary least squares regression analysis revealed that entrepreneurial orientation is an antecedent of business model innovation among medium enterprises in Kenya. On the basis of the results, this study concluded that entrepreneurial orientation is necessary for enterprises to benefit from business model innovation. The study recommends that managers of medium enterprises in Kenya embrace entrepreneurial behaviour and attitude to enhance business model innovation practices. It is further recommended that policymakers should develop and implement policies that encourage innovation and entrepreneurial behaviour. The study clarifies the position of entrepreneurial orientation in relation to BMI. Additional studies are recommended.

Abstract:

Managing projects has become an integral part of business growth and sustainability in contemporary business management practices. As businesses grow and expand, there is a need for prudent and proper management of projects to ensure value for money. Accounting in general has been very critical to the survivor of every business. The complexity of some projects would require more than just average accounting knowledge to ensure their successful planning, execution and completion. It was against this background that this study sought to evaluate "managing projects using forensic accounting in detection and prevention of fraud". The study adopted a qualitative approach and Klynveld Peat Marwick Goerdeler (KPMG) Ghana, a renowned international audit firm was purposely sampled for the study due to its broad business engagements in forensic accounting. The study revealed forensic accounting as a relevant tool in the prevention and detection of fraud in project management practices. There were potential red flags of fraud in Ghanaian projects. Forensic accounting would help complete projects according to schedule and boost the credibility of project managers to the general public. The fraud was a general phenomenon that existed in almost every project. The findings also revealed that irrespective of the nature of fraud, forensic accounting could control it. It was concluded that forensic accounting is of enormous essence to the Projects Community in Ghana especially when forensic accountants were retained for forensic accounting purposes.

Abstract:

Background: Corporate social responsibility (CSR) disclosure is widespread among the largest companies in South Africa due to the listing requirements of the Johannesburg Stock Exchange (JSE). These companies have also increasingly pursued external assurance of their CSR disclosures in recent years. The increased regulation of CSR disclosure and the increased rate of obtaining assurance of these disclosures motivated us to perform our study.Aim: To examine the association between CSR reporting, including both CSR disclosure and CSR assurance, and firm value of large South African companies.Setting: The JSE listing requirements place South Africa, the setting for our study, at the forefront of corporate governance and CSR reporting.Method: Tobin’s Q is used as a measure of firm value. Three measures of CSR disclosure and three of CSR assurance are used in this study. The measures are based on data collected by Klynveld Peat Marwick Goerdeler (KPMG) International on the CSR reporting practices of large South African companies. The sample period for this study coincides with the sample period covered in the KPMG surveys conducted during 2008, 2011 and 2013.Results: No significant association is found between CSR disclosure and firm value. However, a significant negative association is found between CSR assurance and firm value. Additional analysis found that the negative association between firm value and CSR assurance is more significant for companies that are not listed on the Socially Responsible Investment (SRI) index.Conclusion: The results found between CSR disclosure and firm value may suggest that firm value is unaffected by CSR disclosures. Taken together, the findings on CSR assurance and firm value and the additional analysis may suggest that in South Africa managers with negative CSR issues are more likely to obtain assurance on their CSR disclosure. The findings may be of interest to regulators when considering current and future disclosure and assurance requirements for CSR reporting in South Africa, as well as other parts of the world, shareholders when considering investment options, and managers when considering the benefit of certain CSR reporting practices.
