Purpose of the study: This study aims to examine the effects of net income volatility, other comprehensive income volatility, and comprehensive income volatility on stock return volatility. Methodology: This study employed a quantitative method with multiple linear regression. The sample is all non-financial companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange from 2012 to 2017. Data used in this study are panel data sourced from www.idx.co.id and www.finance.yahoo.com. The sample selection in this study used a purposive sampling method with a total sample of 246 observations. Results: This study suggests that net income volatility is not associated with stock return volatility. However, other income volatility and comprehensive income volatility are positively associated with stock return volatility. Implications: Future studies can employ data from other developing country companies and developed countries to be able to compare the results of this study. Based on the result findings, the existing and potential investors must improve their ability and understanding of IFRS-based financial accounting standards. The Accounting Standard Board, especially in Indonesia, is expected to be able to improve the rules of financial accounting standards as well as the access to the availability of financial accounting standards for financial statements users, primarily related to the disclosure policies. Novelty: This study calculates risk-relevant, which is different from the previous studies, namely annual stock return volatility and annual comprehensive income components volatility. Annual stock return volatility is calculated based on the standard deviation of monthly stock return volatility, which is multiplied by √12. Besides, the annual comprehensive income components volatility is generated from the standard deviation of comprehensive income components generated every three months divided by the market value of equity at the beginning of the period, and multiplied by √4.

We investigate the risk relevance of the standard deviation of three performance measures: net income, comprehensive income, and a constructed measure of full-fair-value income for a sample of 202 U.S. commercial banks from 1996 to 2004. We find that, for the average sample bank, the volatility of full-fair-value income is more than three times that of comprehensive income and more than five times that of net income. We find that the incremental volatility in full-fair-value income (beyond the volatility of net income and comprehensive income) is positively related to marketmodel beta, the standard deviation in stock returns, and long-term interest-rate beta. Further, we predict and find that the incremental volatility in full-fair-value income (1) negatively moderates the relation between abnormal earnings and banks' share prices and (2) positively affects the expected return implicit in bank share prices. Our findings suggest full-fair-value income volatility reflects elements of risk that are not captured by volatility in net income or comprehensive income, and relates more closely to capital-market pricing of that risk than either net-income volatility or comprehensiveincome volatility.

Introduction- This study aims to investigate the quality of net income and total comprehensive earnings from four properties or characteristics. The characteristics in question are persistence, variability, predictability and value relevance. The samples of the research are manufacturing companies listed in Indonesian Stock Exchange in 2012. By employing sampling technique based on the criteria, 24 companies were selected as samples with period of data collection from2012 to 2014. There are six hypotheses tested by using regression technique. The results of the research show some findings, namely that net income is more persistent than total comprehensive income, there is no significant difference in the variability between total comprehensive income and net income, net income has the ability to predict cash flow and net income for the upcoming year is better than the total comprehensive income and the relevance of net income is different from the total comprehensive income both by applying price and return model. IFRS convergence financial accounting standards require companies that have public accountability in Indonesia to present a comprehensive income statement that includes the presentation of net income, other comprehensive income and total comprehensive income. The results of the research on the characteristics of net income and total comprehensiveness benefit for various parties such as investors, financial analysts and creditors concerned with the quality of profit that is characterized from 4 perspectives mentioned before.. For the financial accounting standards setter, results of this study provide information about the quality of comprehensive earnings.

The Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) in 1997 compromised its belief that comprehensive income (CI) should be listed either in a combined statement of net income and CI or in a separate statement of CI and allowed corporations to choose using the statement of changes in stockholders’ equity (SCSE).  Of course, the latter option implies just as Jordan and Clark (2002) suggest, that CI is not a measure of financial performance.  Studies incorporating professional analysts by Hirst and Hopkins (1998) and a study of nonprofessional investors by Maines and McDaniel (2000) both conclude that format presentation matters and behaviors can be affected.  We believe that FASB should revisit the format structure of CI and eliminate the SCSE option, which was their initial intent before they compromised with corporate managers in 1997.  In addition, we believe that all items of other comprehensive income (OCI) – foreign currency translation adjustment, pension value adjustments and adjustment to securities-for-sale should be presented on an after-tax basis only in order to prevent investors from being forced to comb through the footnotes.

This case provides a rich environment in which students can explore the challenges of applying Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 115, Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Investments, and Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 130, Reporting Comprehensive Income. By focusing on the stock performance of two technology firms, Lucent Technologies and Microsoft, the case exposes students to issues of determining when a stock price decline is other than temporary, the effects of timing on accounting reporting decisions, and the role of the auditor in determining fair financial reporting. The case provides a qualitative and quantitative application of the two standards that is more complex and less structured than that provided by an intermediate financial accounting text. The case also demonstrates that comprehensive income, unlike net income, is relatively stable and difficult to manipulate.
