One of the most serious concerns presently facing the accounting profession is the growing complexity, extension, and significance of issues adjoining fair value measurements. Many researchers and practitioners criticized the fair value accounting and blame for it causing economic failure. This paper studies licensed commercial banks and the financial institution listed under the Colombo stock exchange to examine the association between fair value accounting and earnings management. In this research, we are examining the provisions for loan loss and discretionary security gains and losses by introducing the fair value assets and liabilities. We used the statistical methodology followed by Beatty et al. (2002) to test the banks reported fair value assets and liabilities associated with provisions for loan loss. We test several robustness tests and sensitivity analysis for our research design. We use both the current year and one-year ahead data test the provision for loan loss, discretionary security gains, and losses after controlling bank-specific features. We found evidence that; banks reported fair value assets and liabilities are positively associate with provision for loan loss. We found the evidence that the level 2 fair value assets and liabilities are a predominant determination for the association between provisions for loan loss. Our evidence is consistent with past research and persuades us that banks use fair value measurements to manage the earnings.

One of the most serious concerns presently facing the accounting profession is the growing complexity, extension, and significance of issues adjoining fair value measurements. The fair value accounting is liable for enhancing financial destruction. This research study the samples of licensed commercial banks and the financial institution listed under Colombo stock exchange to examine the association between the fair value accounting and the small earnings increase reported by the banks attributable to earnings management. We used the statistical methodology follow by Beatty et al. [1] to test the banks reported fair value assets and liabilities associated with bank report small earnings increase. We use both the current year and one-year ahead data after controlling discretionary provision for loan loss, discretionary security gains and losses and other features of banks. We found evidence that; banks reported fair value assets and liabilities are positively associate with bank reported small earnings increase. We further use the fair value hierarchy; to identify which level of fair value assets and liabilities associated with bank reported small earnings increase and we found the evidence that the level 2 fair value assets and liabilities are a predominant determination for the association between banks reported fair value assets and liabilities associated with bank report small earnings increase. The assets available-sales report under fair value is the primary use of item earnings management and the level 2 fair value assets and liabilities to reporting smooth earnings over the periods. Therefore, consistent with past research and present us, banks use the fair value measurements to manage the earnings.

In this study, we examine whether banks’ use of the loan loss provision (LLP) to manage earnings is associated with (a) the extent to which banks hold assets subject to fair value reporting and (b) the use of an industry specialist auditor. We find that banks with a greater proportion of assets subject to fair value reporting (i.e., higher fair value exposure) use less LLP-based earnings management but more transaction-based earnings management (i.e., earnings management achieved by timing the realization of gains/losses). We also find that banks engaging industry specialist auditors use less LLP-based earnings management. Our findings suggest that banks’ use of the LLP to manage earnings is more limited when they have access to alternative earnings management tools and when they engage an auditor with more industry knowledge. Our results should be informative to regulators, members of the banking industry, and academics interested in the earnings management behavior of banks.

The purpose of this study is to determine the effect of fair value accounting and board of commissioners on earnings management. The renewal of this study where the research also aims to determine the role of sharia in moderating the influence of fair value accounting and the board of commissioners on earnings management. Researchers tested banking companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange in 2015-2018 with a total sample of 152 samples using a purposive sampling method. The results showed that fair value accounting and the board of commissioners had no effect on earnings management, where the probability value of both was greater than the level of significance (0.005). In addition, the results of the study stated that the role of sharia can reduce the effect of fair value on earnings management with a significance level of 10% (0.10). However, the role of sharia cannot actually reduce the influence of the board of commissioners on earnings management with a probability level greater than 0.005. Recommendations for further research are expected to be able to trace real earnings management because in this study only using accrual earnings management, then it is expected that the next researcher broadens the sample used and adds other variables that are considered to influence earnings management.

The current study examines the relationship between Historical Cost Accounting (HCA) and real earnings management. Accounting literature argues that HCA provides a chance for manipulation. HCA creates large unrealized capital gains/losses that are recognized in income statements only when managers decide to sell such assets. This may induce managers to manipulate earnings. Moreover, managers are able to decide which assets to sell and during which period. Therefore, managers can exploit HCA in real earnings management by interfering in the structuring of asset sale transactions. The current study aims to contribute to the ongoing debate over dropping HCA and replacing it with Fair Value Accounting (FVA). Using a sample of the 71 most actively traded non-financial firms listed on the Egyptian Stock Exchange during 20042010, multiple regression analysis is employed to test two main hypotheses: the income-smoothing hypothesis and the debt/equity hypothesis. The results provide evidence that managers in the Egyptian business environment exploit HCA in real earnings management to some extent. Managers with negative earnings changes tend to use HCA to smooth earnings, while managers with earnings changes do not. Moreover, there is no evidence for managers use of HCA to avoid violating debt contract terms based on accounting numbers.
