Accounting Policy

This case provides an experiential learning opportunity to (a) appreciate the role of professional judgment in accounting policy choices, (b) evaluate the effect of accounting decisions on other business functions, and (c) understand the challenges in transitioning to a new accounting standard. Prestige’s previous auditors were fine with its use of output-based measure (milestones completed) to compute the percentage-of-completion (POC) for its long-term construction contracts. However, the newly appointed auditors recommended Prestige to switch over to input-based measure (costs incurred) to compute POC. Students need to choose the appropriate financial reporting policy considering accounting and non-accounting issues. The case addresses an important context, long-term construction contracts. Although the case setting is in India, it can be used in any country given its GAAP-agnostic nature. The case is best suited for intermediate accounting courses in which the topic of revenue recognition is addressed.

This study presents that (a) deferred tax assets influence accrual earnings management; b) deferred tax expenses affect accrual earnings management; c) transfer pricing does not strengthen the effect of deferred tax assets on accrual earnings management; and d) transfer pricing does not strengthen the effect of deferred tax expenses on accrual earnings management. This study contributes to accounting studies, tax authorities and regulators, and accounting policy makers. Firstly, this research contributes to the development of accounting studies on the role of transfer pricing as a moderator of the effect of deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities on earnings management. Secondly, the results of this study can make a consideration for tax authorities and regulators in addressing company management actions to minimize the amount of tax paid by utilizing policies according to PSAK. It is worth considering how to sanction companies that deliberately reduce the amount of tax that should be paid. It is necessary to conduct tax investigation by the Directorate General of taxes on companies that are indicated to have practiced accrual earnings management with the aim of reducing the tax burden. Thirdly, accounting policy makers need to consider how management reduces the tax that should be paid through accounting policies that are allowed under PSAK and transfer pricing mechanism.
