Policymakers are concerned about nitrogen and phosphorus export to water bodies. Exports may be reduced by paying farmers to adopt practices to reduce runoff or by paying performance incentives tied to estimated run-off reductions. We evaluate the cost-effectiveness of practice and performance incentives for reducing nitrogen exports. Performance incentives potentially improve farm-level and allocative efficiencies relative to practice incentives. However, the efficiency improvements can be undermined by baseline shifts when growers adopt crops that enhance the performance payments but cause more pollution. Policymakers must carefully specify rules for performance-incentive programs and payments to avoid such baseline shifting.

Earnings management practices in corporate financial statement continues to be an issue of debate in the financial accounting realm. Earnings management is done by the management of a company for various reasons. Information disclosed in the financial statement ideally must reflect the condition and performance of a company. Extraordinary events such as natural disaster surely will affect the performance of a company that is impacted by the event. A decline in corporate financial performance will affect the corporate stakeholders. This research aims to detect earnings management practices that might be conducted by service companies that support tourism industries affected by the earthquake that occurred in Lombok and Palu. Using the equation formulated by Stubben (2009) to detect earnings management practices by observing the change in discretionary revenues, this research has found that the natural disaster that hit Lombok and Palu was not a powerful enough extraordinary event that might have driven the management to conduct earnings management practices.
