The aim of the research is to achieve a conclusion what is the level of the reporting practice on intangible assets in two countries - in the Republic of Serbia and in the Republic of Slovenia trough a comparative descriptive statistics. Consolidated financial statements of listed companies in these two countries were used from the Belgrade Stock Exchange (Serbia) and the Ljubljana Stock Exchange (Slovenia). The reason for the use of consolidated financial statements lies in the fact that they can contain unconsolidated intangible assets already recognized in the separate financial statements of the companies included in the group, as well as internally generated intangible assets that meet the conditions for recognition in a business combination (including Goodwill). The general assessment is that the survey results indicate a very low level of reporting practice of intangible assets in Serbia and relatively satisfactory level of reporting practice in Slovenia. Individual results are given in the fourth part of the paper.

Abstract IFRS 3 have been adopted to increase the relevance of information on business combinations. Consequently, it is expected that information on goodwill will contribute to that goal. By analysing the sample of the most important companies in the Republic of Serbia, this paper identifies several key areas of disclosure regarding recognition, initial recognition, and subsequent measurement of goodwill. All companies listed on the Belgrade Stock Exchange (BSE) which prepare consolidated financial statements are taken for the sample. In addition, the paper includes selected non-listed companies (that are most important for the Serbian economy according to the criteria of revenue, number of employees, and the share in the total GDP) in the sample. The final sample consists of 156 consolidated financial statements of 43 groups in the analysed four-year period (2013-2016). Descriptive statistic is used. The author found a low level of disclosure, which is further accompanied by misapplication of IFRS.

Accounting Principles

The operation of a financial reporting system is very expensive. In all areas where costs arise, it is important to examine whether the benefits exceed the costs or not. The objectives of financial reporting in Hungary are specified by Act C of 2000 on Accounting (HLA). In this paper, we will show these objectives and the defined accounting principles, as well. With the help of previous research, we have reviewed how accounting quality is measured. The aim of this research is to examine the difference in accounting quality between the publicly listed and private companies in Hungary and develop an evaluation process that takes due account of the complexity of the topic. To this end, we studied the separate (non-consolidated) financial statements of 63 Hungarian com- panies during the period of 1998-2016. Forty-seven percent of the statements were disclosed by public companies and fifty-three percent were disclosed by private companies. The examined financial statements were prepared in accordance with the HLA. To evaluate the data, we examined accruals, timely loss recognition, the vola- tility of earnings, cash flow and earnings management towards target. To summarize the results, we developed an evaluation model which is based on the basic accounting principles and the above-mentioned methods. We found that publicly listed companies have higher accounting quality compared to private companies.

The Impact

In this study we will empirically evaluate the overall impact, and by industries, of Basic Earnings per Share calculated according to Comprehensive Income against the same ratio determined in accordance with Net Income, for a sample of ninety-two Spanish groups listed on the Madrid Stock Exchange during 20042007, in agreement with the information contained in their Consolidated Financial Statements pursuant to IASB GAAP and industry classification adopted in this market.In order to contrast the corresponding hypotheses, a set of non-parametric tools were used, as the data was far from normalcy. The results of our paper, which are ground-breaking at an international level, show a statistically significant impact of Basic Earnings per Share calculated according to Comprehensive Income against the same ratio determined pursuant to Net Income for the sample group in all of the years that were analyzed. On the other hand, when approaching the study by industries, we have observed quite uniform behavior between them in the sense that we found a remarkable impact on listed companies in all industries, which is why in general terms we are witnessing a phenomenon that affects the listed companies regardless of the nature of their business activities.These evidences, apart from suggesting a new dimension in the fundamental analysis, of particular interest to analysts and investors, justifies the disclosure of Basic Earnings per Share determined according to Comprehensive Income, not only in the notes, but also in the main body of the Statement of Comprehensive Income.

The Impact

PurposeThe present study investigates the connection between company investments in intellectual capital (IC) and how they translate into financial value. The aim is to test the impact of intangible assets on the firm value and its sustainable growth.Design/methodology/approachThe research employs computation models to determine the sustainable growth rate (SGR) and the firm value (FV), and by using the ordinary least squares (OLS) model through a linear regression assesses the relationship between the dependent variables and expenditures on intangibles like R&D, IT programs and patents. A sample of 42 companies has been selected out of the 78 listed at Bucharest Stock Exchange (BSE), based on the appropriateness of the information disclosed in the financial reports for the period 2016–2019.FindingsThe results show that intangibles classified as innovative competences (R&D and Patents) do not have a positive impact on SGR and FV in listed companies from Romania. Moreover, R&D has a negative and significant effect on FV, while IT Programs have a positive and significant impact on FV, but not on the SGR. Variables categorised as economic competencies (Brands, Shares held in associates and jointly controlled entities) and firm structure-specific variables (Leverage, Firm Performance) seem to have a significant effect on SGR and FV. Shares held in associates and jointly controlled entities is the variable that can have the biggest impact when it comes to FV for companies listed at BSE.Research limitations/implicationsDue to non-disclosure of specific information by some companies, or lack of investments in intangibles the sample had to be reduced and does not cover all listed companies.Practical implicationsCompanies listed on the Regulated Market from the Bucharest Stock Exchange should maintain their scale of liabilities at a reasonable level when financing intangible assets in order to ensure corporate long-term and sustainable development. Also, these companies should maintain awareness about the importance of intangible assets and invest more in specific sub-components, in order to sustain competitive advantage. Recognizing the roles of intangibles, managers need to develop strategies to invest in profitable intangibles by reasonably allocating their limited resources, in order to achieve sustainable growth and increase company success.Originality/valueStudies concerning the relation between investments in intangibles and sustainable growth rate and firm value of listed Romanian companies are very scarce. This paper reveals new research, never before undertaken, concerning expenditures on intangibles by Romanian companies and the valuation of such investments on Bucharest Stock Exchange.

Currently, listed companies in our country generally draw up consolidated financial statements according to the new accounting standards requirements, and release consolidated financial statement to investors and relevant financial statements users so as to public company financial information. Consolidated financial statements can comprehensively reflect the financial position and operating results of listed companies. The key basic work of consolidated financial statements preparation is to reasonably determine the consolidation range of consolidated financial statements. Although the current new accounting standards have stipulated consolidation range, the new accounting standards has not specified the substantial control of concrete measurement method problem. So this paper takes one listed companys financial report and related data from 2007 to 2011 as data sources,selects listed enterprises with no clear merger reason as research object. Multivariate linear regression model is adopted to analyze the influence of merge scope change on book performance. The results show that the consolidated range change will change enterprises book report data,and the influence average value of book achievement is about 10.72%.

Significant changes are being made to the way independent auditors report audit results. They are generally oriented towards the broader context in which the auditors worked to analyse their conclusions more effectively. What is particularly interesting in this context is the auditor's duty to present Key Audit Matters (KAMs) concerning areas of the highest risk. In light of the above, the purpose of this article is to present the extent to which changes have been implemented in independent auditors' reports from the audits of the financial statements of the largest companies on the Polish market and to identify both the key audit matters as well as the verification procedures applied by auditors. Auditors' opinions from the audits of consolidated financial statements of the 30 largest companies listed on the main market of the Warsaw Stock Exchange for the years 2014–2016 were analysed in detail. The total sample comprised 90 opinions. The research methodology consisted mainly of case studies, with deductive and inductive reasoning used to formulate conclusions based on the analysis and synthesis method. The results of this research indicate that some independent auditors have been implementing new elements of reporting on a current basis. An analysis of the contents of their opinions has shown that the auditors mainly include the estimates of asset impairment, the recognition of sales, the disclosure of claims, disputed matters and con-tingent liabilities as well as accounting for deferred income tax assets in Key Audit Matters. Auditors also give quite detailed reasons for selecting the specific KAM and the verification techniques used.

This paper analyzes selected data on the performance of companies that are part of the power utility Elektroprivreda Republike Srpske with the aim of determining their sustainable growth rates. The energy sector was chosen because of its importance both for the Republic of Srpska capital market (measured by the participation in the total market capitalization of the Banja Luka Stock Exchange and the basic Stock Exchange index) and the entire Republic of Srpska economy (measured by the participation in gross domestic product). The analysis considered data from published financial statements for 2019, with an emphasis on the following: operating assets, liabilities, capital, operating income and net profit. The dividend policy was also considered, but it was concluded in the paper that none of the observed companies paid dividends from profit for 2019 by the end of this analysis. The research results show that the rate of sustainable growth exceeds 1% in only one case, while in several other cases there are negative rates of sustainable growth caused by the loss in the observed period. Such facts could raise concerns, but also indicate possible directions for future actions in order to improve the performance of the considered companies.

The main purpose of this article is to determine the impact of changes in the fair value of assets and liabilities on the overall net result of selected banks listed on the Warsaw Stock Exchange. The research covered the consolidated financial statements of five banks, for the years 2014-2018. Methods of analyzing the literature on the subject, financial statements, and legal acts, including selected IFRS, were used. It has been shown that, on the one hand, fair value revaluations have a significant impact on the financial result of the described entities; on the other hand, the fair value in these entities is determined mainly at the 1st level of the hierarchy. This means that the basis for determining the fair value is observable prices on the market, and that the impact of subjective estimates on the financial result is small.
