Wie ist das betriebliche Rechnungswesen aufgebaut? Welche Vorgänge umfasst es? Wie wird ein Jahresabschluss vorbereitet und erstellt? Welche Vorschriften des Handels- und Steuerrechts sind zu beachten? Das Lehrbuch vermittelt neben dem grundlegenden Verständnis für Aufbau und Funktionsweise des betrieblichen Rechnungswesens die Kenntnisse zur Erfassung der typischen betrieblichen Vorgänge im Rechnungswesen. Darüber hinaus werden die Vorbereitung und Erstellung des Jahresabschlusses unter Beachtung der einschlägigen Vorschriften des Handels- und Steuerrechts behandelt. Diese Ausführungen werden um grundlegende Regeln der IFRS, der Abschlussprüfung und -publizität sowie um die Grundlagen der Bilanzanalyse ergänzt. Anhand einer Vielzahl von Fallbeispielen werden alle wichtigen Geschäftsvorfälle und deren Auswirkungen auf den Jahresabschluss verständlich gemacht. Das Lehrbuch wurde in der 9. Auflage durchgehend überarbeitet und an die aktuellen Entwicklungen angepasst. Dazu gehören z.B. die aktuellen Entwicklungen im Bereich der Nachhaltigkeitsberichterstattung und berichterstattungsbezogenen Corporate Governance sowie andere Neuerungen, die sich durch das Finanzmarktintegritätsstärkungsgesetz (FISG) ergeben.

This book, using R and RStudio, demonstrates how to render an audit opinion that is legally and statistically defensible; analyze, extract, and manipulate accounting data; build a risk assessment matrix to inform the conduct of a cost-effective audit program; and more. Today, information technology plays a pivotal role in financial control and audit: most financial data is now digitally recorded and dispersed among servers, clouds and networks over which the audited firm has no control. Additionally, a firm's data—particularly in the case of finance, software, insurance and biotech firms—comprises most of the audited value of the firm. Financial audits are critical mechanisms for ensuring the integrity of information systems and the reporting of organizational finances. They help avoid the abuses that led to passage of legislation such as the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (1977), and the Sarbanes-Oxley Act (2002). Audit effectiveness has declined over the past two decades, as auditor skillsets have failed to keep up with advances in information technology. Information and communication technology lie at the core of commerce today and are integrated in business processes around the world. This book is designed to meet the increasing need of audit professionals to understand information technology and the controls required to manage it. This 2nd edition includes updated code and test. Machine learning, AI, and SEC's EDGAR data are also, improved and updated. The material included focuses on the requirements for annual Securities and Exchange Commission audits (10-K) for listed corporations. These represent the benchmark auditing procedures for specialized audits, such as internal, governmental, and attestation audits. Many examples reflect the focus of the 2024 CPA exam, and the data analytics-machine learning approach will be central to the AICPA's programs, in the near future.

In diesem Open-Access-Buch würdigt die Autorin unterschiedliche Normermittlungstheorien und betrachtet die Rolle von Unternehmen bei der Entwicklung der Regelungen zur Bilanzierung von Mehrkomponentengeschäften nach IFRS 15. Der IFRS-Standardsetzungsprozess ist durch die Teilnahme unterschiedlicher Interessengruppen gekennzeichnet, die auf die Entstehung von Bilanzierungsregeln Einfluss nehmen. Im Rahmen einer qualitativen Inhaltsanalyse werden die Comment Letter von Unternehmen und die Standardentwürfe zu IFRS 15 auf ihre inhaltliche Zielrichtung sowie die verwendete Rhetorik untersucht und die Auswirkungen auf das Standardsetzungsergebnis veranschaulicht.

In diesem Open-Access-Buch wird untersucht, ob abschlusspolitische Ergebnisspaltungen mit aufgegebenen Geschäftsbereichen unter IFRS 5 existieren und ob sie verhindert werden können. Anhand von 325 Beobachtungen von CDAX-Technologieunternehmen aus den Jahren 2008 bis 2013 können abschlusspolitische Ergebnisspaltungen weder zum Erhöhen der Ergebnisse aus den fortgeführten Geschäftsbereichen noch zum Erreichen von Referenzwerten, zwecks Cookie Jars oder Big Baths belegt werden. Lediglich bei ineffizienten Unternehmensgrößen werden abschlusspolitische Ergebnisspaltungen festgestellt, die sich gegenüber diversen Modellmodifikationen als robust herausstellen. Die Prävention dieser abschlusspolitischen Ergebnisspaltungen kann nur bei hohen Verschuldungsgraden belegt werden. Dagegen können geeignete Aufsichtsräte, Großaktionäre, niedrige Prüfungshonorare abseits von externen Prüferrotationen und große Abschlussprüfer abschlusspolitische Ergebnisspaltungen bei ineffizienten Unternehmensgrößen nicht verhindern. Geeignete Vorstandsvergütungen, Nichtprüfungshonorare und Branchenspezialisierungen der Abschlussprüfer schwächen abschlusspolitische Ergebnisspaltungen bei ineffizienten Unternehmensgrößen zumindest ab.

Intangible assets are becoming increasingly important as value drivers for multinational companies. It is a strategic question how to allocate intangibles within the multinational corporation. It needs to be defined by whom and under which conditions they can be utilized. Typical IP migration models such as licensing, joint development and transferring are becoming a focal point within tax audits across the globe. Hence,defining an intangibles system that fulfils the tax requirements is of utmost strategic importance for multinational corporations. A central question is how to value intangibles in line with the arm's length principle as is required internationally for transfer pricing purposes.Edited by leading transfer pricing and valuation experts in Europe, this comprehensive book offers practitioners an effective road map for identifying, valuing and implementing intangibles for transfer pricing purposes under consideration of both the OECD and local perspectives. It is therefore a must-have book for transfer pricing and valuation practitioners on all levels of experience.The book starts with an introduction to the role of intangibles in the world of transfer pricing including typical intangibles migration models. It describes common intangible assets across all types of industries, including e.g. automotive, consumer goods and software.Using several numerical examples, the book then covers state-of-the-art valuation methods including how to apply these methods in practice in a way consistent with the OECD Transfer Pricing Guidelines. The different country chapters written by local experts provide country-specific guidance on the legal framework concerning intangible assets from a transfer pricing and valuation perspective. Finally, the book covers practical advice on the implementation of an intangible assets system. This book offers invaluable guidance to practitioners seeking tools to apply the arm's length principle in theworld of intangibles.

This book continues the discussion on recent developments relating to ethical and sustainable issues in accounting & finance from Ethics and Sustainability in Accounting and Finance, Volume I. Accounting is often seen as a technical discipline that records, classifies and reports financial transactions. However, since the financial information produced concerns all interest groups both within and outside the enterprise, accounting also has social characteristics and involves multi-faceted duties and responsibilities. As such, in addition to basic principles and accepted rules and standards in the field, this book focuses on the ethical aspects and fundamentals of this profession that accountants should also take into consideration, as this is the only way to build and preserve society's confidence in accounting and increase its social credibility.

This book analyzes the impact of digitization on management accounting in five manufacturing companies. It is one of the first in-depth empirical studies on the intersection of management accounting and digitization. The study suggests that there are two archetypes of digitization of the management accounting function. The first archetype emphasizes top-down-driven changes that aim to enhance efficiency, such as conducting tasks with a higher degree of automation in a leaner structure with fewer resources. The second archetype is strongly driven and initiated by employees in the management accounting function (bottom-up). The focus is on improving the use of data by applying innovative analytics methods, integrating additional sources of data, and benefiting from new technologies like artificial intelligence. The results of the study also indicate that digitization of the management accounting function is mostly in line with the overall company strategy.

Mergers and acquisitions (M&As) reshape the corporate landscape helping companies expand market share and gain a strategic advantage. The ability to understand and analyze these transactions is a crucial skill. The first step in acquiring that skill is being able to gather and analyse information on M&As from public sources, such as financial statements. This textbook helps its readers better analyze M&A transactions using information provided in financial statements. Covering accounting and reporting of consolidations, goodwill, non-controlling interests, step acquisitions, spin-offs, equity carve-outs, joint ventures, leveraged buyouts, disposal of subsidiaries, special purpose entities, and taxes, it focuses on the link between underlying economic events and the information in financial statements and how this link affects the assessment of corporate performance. The first part of the book provides description of the accounting rules governing M&A transactions, whilethe second part includes cases of M&A transactions. Each case focuses on a different element of an M&A transaction, and it is followed by a detailed solution with a complete analysis. Unlike other books in this field, this textbook focuses exclusively on accounting and financial analysis for graduate and upper undergraduate level courses in financial analysis, corporate finance, and financial accounting.

This book provides a digestible step-by-step guide to reading corporate financial reports, drawing upon real-life case studies and examples of corporate collapses and accounting scandals, and applying practical tools to financial statement analysis. Appealing to a range of practitioners within corporate finance including investors, managers, and business analysts, this book is the first to specifically address the challenges facing those who are not professional accountants and auditors when examining corporate financial reports.Corporate financial reports are used widely by managers, investors, creditors, and government agencies to examine company performance and evaluate potential risks. However, although seemingly an invaluable source of information for managerial decision-making, financial reports are often based on rough simplifications of a very complex reality. With no way of avoiding deliberate manipulations and fraudulent activity, these statements cannot be relied on completely when selecting stocks or evaluating credit risk, and therefore poor analysis can lead to potentially disastrous investment decisions.The author suggests that in order to effectively interpret corporate financial reports, we must'read between the lines'to accurately assess a company's economic performance and predict its long-term viability.

This book provides researchers and scholars with a comprehensive and up-to-date analysis of earnings management theory and literature. While it raises new questions for future research, the book can be also helpful to other parties who rely on financial reporting in making decisions like regulators, policy makers, shareholders, investors, and gatekeepers e.g., auditors and analysts. The book summarizes the existing literature and provides insight into new areas of research such as the differences between earnings management, fraud, earnings quality, impression management, and expectation management; the trade-off between earnings management activities; the special measures of earnings management; and the classification of earnings management motives based on a comprehensive theoretical framework.

Prof. Dr. Wolfgang Eisele war bis zu seiner Emeritierung Inhaber des Lehrstuhls für Betriebswirtschaftslehre, insbesondere Rechnungswesen und Finanzierung an der Universität Hohenheim. Prof. Dr. Alois Paul Knobloch ist Inhaber des Lehrstuhls für Betriebswirtschaftslehre, insbesondere Rechnungswesen und Finanzwirtschaft an der Universität des Saarlandes. Die „Technik“ war und ist ein Gesamtwerk: Es umfasst das betriebliche Rechnungswesen in der Breite ausgehend vom handels- und steuerrechtlichen Einzelabschluss und den dafür einschlägigen internationalen Rechnungslegungsgrundsätzen (IFRS), über die Grundlagen der Kosten- und Leistungsrechnung bis hin zu den Sonderfällen der Bilanzierung und in der Tiefe von der Auslegung der abstrakten Bilanzierungsnormen durch Rechtsprechung, Verwaltung und Schrifttum bis hin zum grundlegenden Buchungssatz. Aufgrund der abgedeckten Stofffülle haben die gravierenden Gesetzesänderungen (inkl. neuer IFRS-Standards) seit der Vorauflage eine durchgängige und nahezu völlige Neu- und Überarbeitung der einschlägigen Rechnungslegungsteile erzwungen. Dabei wird der Charakter der „Technik“ sowohl als Lehr- und Studienmaterial als auch für die Praxisanwendung gewahrt. Beibehalten wurde die bewährte Trilogie:â–ª Teil A: Buchführung und Bilanzierung,â–ª Teil B: Kosten- und Leistungsrechnung,â–ª Teil C: Sonderbilanzen. Auch das Lernziel der „Technik“ gilt unverändert: Durch anwendungsbezogenes Grundlagenwissen die Fähigkeit zur selbständigen Problemlösung zu fördern, bleibt das besondere Anliegen dieses Lehr- und Handbuches. Es wendet sich deshalb nach wie vor sowohl an die Studierenden der Wirtschaftswissenschaften an den Hochschulen als auch an die Praktiker aus Wirtschaft, Beratung und Verwaltung, die Kenntnisse auf dem Gebiet des externen und des internen betrieblichen Rechnungswesens erwerben, vertiefen und auf den neuesten Stand bringen möchten.

This book analyzes the relationship between integrated reporting and audit quality within the European context, presenting empirical evidence and drawing on a broad review of the available literature in order to evaluate the ability of integrated reporting to enhance audit risk assessment. Dedicated sections first elucidate the concepts of integrated reporting and audit quality. The main integrated reporting frameworks are compared, the role of integrated reporting within a firm's disclosure is examined, and all aspects of audit risk are discussed. The key question of the impacts of integrated reporting on the components of audit risk is then addressed in detail, with reference to empirical findings, their practical implications, and their limitations. The concluding section explores the future of corporate reporting and the development of the next integrated reporting framework and summarizes the insights that the analysis in the book offers into the relationship between integrated reporting and audit quality in the European setting.

Unter dem Ansatz der wertorientierten Unternehmensführung erforscht Florian Werner die Werttreiber, die nach dem Konzept der Service-orientierten Architektur (SOA) gestalteten Informationssystemen zugrunde liegen. Er analysiert systematisch die Gestaltungsfelder des Managements mit dem größten Einfluss auf den Unternehmenswert. Erkenntnisse des Informationsmanagements und des IV-Controlling integrierend arbeitet der Autor maßgebliche Nutzeffekte, Kosten und Risiken von Service-orientierten Informationssystemen (SOIS) heraus und führt sie in einem konsistenten Performance Measurement-Modell zusammen. Die Untersuchung umfasst eine Balanced Scorecard (BSC) mit allen SOA-Ebenen sowie entsprechenden Key Performance Indikatoren (KPI).

This book presents a collection of original research papers focused on the relationship between information technology and accounting and control models. The book discusses the importance of establishing a synergetic relationship between new information technologies (ERP, BI, web-based technology, data mining, XBRL, etc.) and new or renewed accounting models and tools (performance indicators, prevision and simulation models, accounting models for public administration, etc.) in order to enhance an organization's capability to manage information and make valuable decisions. The search for these synergies takes place at all organizational levels: at a strategic level, in order to simulate and forecast behaviors and financial results at a management level, in order to innovate performance measurement and improve value creation at the operational level, in order to improve information qualityand the efficiency of the information process. This book is particularly useful for IS and CFO managers and scholars, as it is based on a selection of the best papers – original, double blind reviewed contributions - presented to the Annual Conference of the Italian Chapter of AIS under the category “Accounting Information Systems”.

This book provides a comprehensive overview of corporate social responsibility and its development in Africa. It provides in-depth studies on 11 sub-Saharan countries, demonstrating that corporate social responsibility is forming and going through different stages of metamorphosis in the continent. Though corporate and individual attitudes towards sustainability in Africa still leave a lot to be desired, this book showcases how things are rapidly changing for the better in this regard. It demonstrates and provides evidence for the fact that corporate social responsibility contributes significantly to the way sub-Saharan African economies are being transformed, with service sectors expanding, commercial activities diversifying and industrial bases growing through the initiatives of small, medium and large organizations and innovators supported by widespread higher-education program rollouts. The book highlights how progressive and wide-ranging CSR approaches have emerged, and how much they differ from the obsolete approaches of the past, which promulgated negative stereotypes, marginalized communities and positioned them as victims or beneficiaries of development.

Astrid Schüler analysiert die Auswirkungen des, im Rahmen des BilMoG neuformulierten, § 254 HGB auf die Zwecke der handelsrechtlichen Rechnungslegung. Dabei zeigt die Autorin, dass das Ziel des Gesetzgebers, eine wirtschaftlich sachgerechtere Darstellung von Sicherungsbeziehungen bei gleichzeitiger Erhöhung des Informationsniveaus, mit der kodifizierten Regelung nur bedingt erreicht werden kann. Die traditionell prinzipienorientierte Ausgestaltung des § 254 HGB macht die neue Regelung auslegungsbedürftig, ermöglicht bilanzpolitische Gestaltungsspielräume und führt, gerade auf Grund der Komplexität dieses Themenfeldes, zu einer Vielzahl von Fragen zur Anwendung und Auslegung der neuen Rechtsnorm.

Die Autorin untersucht in diesem Essential die elektronische Rechnung im Hinblick auf die Chancen und Risiken des praktischen Einsatzes im Büroalltag. Für den Vorsteuerabzug relevante Vorschriften des Umsatzsteuergesetzes sowie die aktuell durch das Bundesfinanzministerium veröffentlichten GoBD (Grundsätze zur ordnungsmäßigen Führung und Aufbewahrung von Büchern, Aufzeichnungen und Unterlagen in elektronischer Form sowie zum Datenzugriff) werden übersichtlich und nachvollziehbar dargestellt. Dies soll dem Leser helfen, diese besser zu verstehen und im Alltag praktisch anzuwenden.

Björn Kirsten deckt bilanzpolitische Spielräume auf, die u. a. entstehen, weil das ohnehin äußerst komplexe IFRS-Regelwerk besonders im Bereich der Bilanzierung finanzieller Vermögens- und Schuldpositionen sehr unübersichtlich ist. Der Autor stellt fest, dass die wirtschaftswissenschaftlichen Publikationen diese Problematik in Bezug auf Zinsinstrumente bislang stiefmütterlich behandeln – mitunter negieren sie diese sogar explizit, obwohl die Spielräume, auch wenn sie nicht ausgenutzt werden, dem internationalen Rechnungslegungszweck entgegenstehen. Vor diesem Hintergrund analysiert Kirsten die bilanzpolitischen Potentiale im IFRS-Abschluss von Banken und erstellt Lösungsvorschläge, um die sich ergebenden negativen Auswirkungen einzudämmen. Dabei unterscheidet er zwischen Gestaltungen einerseits der Rechnungslegungsvorschriften und andererseits der Abschlussprüfung.

Private online digital currency systems offer people accessible, convenient, and inexpensive everyday financial tools outside of traditional bank-owned and operated platforms. Digital currency systems facilitate local and international fund transfers, online and offline payments, and simple cash-to-digital everyday financial products without the need for a conventional bank account of any retail bank product. Over the past several years, Bitcoin has grown into an efficient person-to-person and person-to-business payment system without the backing of any bank or financial institution. This phenomenon is producing a new level of an on- and offline commerce and a society much more attuned to digital currency systems.
