<p align="center"><strong><em>ABSTRACT</em></strong></p><p><em>In 2014, the government and parliament passed Law No. 6 of 2014 stipulates the rights and obligations of the village. A key point in the Act is allocation large enough of the village fund for each village across Indonesia. As a follow up of the Act, the government has also issued Regulation of the Minister of the Home Affair No. 113/2015 on the Financial Management of the Village which serves as a guide for the government in the villages to manage their of village fund. Legalization of this Act rise polemic in community. Some argue that the village funds that will be allocated to the village would pose a potential corruption of village officials. Therefore, this community service aims to find a variety of problems related to  management of the village fund and to provide guidance of village fund management. The community service is done in the village and the village Giriroto Kismoyoso Ngemplak District of Boyolali. In the early stages of community service, a team do an observation and direct discussions with the Village Head of Kismoyoso and Giriroto. It aims to gain a deeper knowledge of the issues related to the management of funds of village. The observation and discussion shows that the main problem that arises is the lack of knowledge of the village head in both villages to the technical implementing financial management of villages based on Regulation No. 113/2015. It is coupled with a lack of facilitators from Boyolali district to assist in both villages. The team considers that implementation of the financial reporting using computerized system | is a solution to overcome these obstacles. With the computerized system, village fund reporting will be done quickly and the finacial statements will also be more reliable than reporting manually. Therefore, the team filed the application computerized reporting by using the reporting software that generates the village fund financial statements as set out in Regulation No. 113/2015.</em></p><p align="center"><strong> </strong></p><p align="center"><strong>SARIPATI</strong></p>Pada tahun 2014, pemerintah dan DPR mengesahkan Undang-Undang Nomor 6 Tahun 2014 mengatur tentang hak dan kewajiban desa. Hal pokok dalam UU adalah adanya alokasi dana desa yang cukup besar untuk setiap desa. Pengesahan UU ini menimbulkan polemik dimasyarakat. Beberapa pihak menyambut gembira terbitnya UU tersebut karena adanya dana desa akan menjadikan desa sebagai pusat pembangunan. Sebaliknya, beberapa pihak berpendapat bahwa dana desa yang akan dialokasikan kepada desa akan menimbulkan potensi korupsi yang dilakukan aparat desa. Sebagai tindak lanjut UU tersebut, pemerintah juga telah menerbitkan Peraturan Menteri Dalam Negeri No. 113/2015 tentang Pengelolaan Keuangan Desa yang menjadi panduan bagi pemerintah desa dalam penata kelolaan keuangan desa. Oleh karena itu, pengabdian masyarakat ini bertujuan untuk  mengetahui berbagai permasalahan yang dialami desa terkait pengelolaan dana desa dan memberikan bimbingan dan pelatihan pengelolaan dana desa. Pengabdian di lakukan di Desa Kismoyoso dan Desa Giriroto Kecamatan Ngemplak Boyolali. Pada tahap awal pengabdian dilakukan observasi dan diskusi secara langsung dengan Kepala Desa Kismoyoso dan  Giriroto. Hal ini  bertujuan untuk memahami lebih dalam permasalahan kedua desa terkait pengelolaan dana desa. Hasil observasi dan diskusi menunjukkan bahwa permasalahan utama yang timbul adalah rendahnya pengetahuan dari kepala desa di kedua desa tersebut berserta pelaksana teknis terkait pengelolaan keuangannya desa berdasarkan Permendagri No. 113/2015. Hal itu ditambah lagi dengan belum adanya tenaga pendamping dari Kabupaten Boyolali yang diturunkan untuk mendampingi di kedua desa tersebut. Tim pengabdian menganggap pelaporan keuangan dana desa secara komputer merupakan solusi untuk mengatasi kendala tersebut. Permendagri No. 113/2015 hanya mengatur  format-format pelaporan secara manual dan tidak mensyaratkan adanya komputerisasi dalam pelaporannya. Disisi lain,  teknologi informasi komputer (TIK) telah semakin banyak digunakan karena biaya hardware dan software sudah cukup murah. Selain itu, sistem terkomputerisasi memiliki banyak keuntungan dibandingkan dengan sistem manual. Pelaporan dana desa mampu dilakukan dengan cepat dan output laporan keuangannnya juga akan lebih handal dibanding dengan pelaporan secara manual.  Oleh karena itu, tim pengabdian mengajukan penerapan pelaporan berkomputer dengan menggunakansoftware pelaporan dana desa yang menghasilkan laporan keuangan seperti yang diatur dalam Permendagri No. 113/2015. Proses pencatatan dan output laporan dari software ini dikembangkan mengacu pada Permendagri No. 113/2015 yang menjadi pedoman pengelolaan keuangan desa uantuk seluruh desa di Indonesia.

Based on the central government regulations; No. 32/2004 and No. 33/2004, a reform in governance and public sector activities has been suggested as well a new paradigm shaped in the development and management of the local financial system. The earlier adoption of the government regulation (PP) No. 58/2005 had been enhanced with the issuing of the Ministry of Home Affairs’ Regulation (Permendagri) No. 59/2007 which lays out comprehensive guidelines for the implementation of the administrative and financial accounting subject. In this Permendagri’s No. 59/2007 guidelines of financial management, by definition, the accounting system is used as a series of procedures ranging from the process of data collection, recording, summarizing, up to financial reporting responsibilities in the budget implementation framework. The model data structure is designed to give a high degree of accuracy and a higher relevance in the development of the accounting information system, without being distracted by the application code changes. The descriptive analysis adopted in this study uses both tools of the visual basic program and database of Microsoft SQL designs. The programming part is to present the results of the local government’s manual finance report into several generated computerized systems. In preparing the financial statements, it is deemed sufficient to create one format followed by the transaction journal which automatically posts directly the generated processing and financial reports. These courses will greatly assist in the preparation of the financial statements. By having such reliable information technology support, the financial governance rules contained in Permendagri are able to ensure the effectiveness of the internal control systems’ design.

SYNOPSIS The Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (PCAOB), the International Auditing and Assurance Standards Board (IAASB), and the U.K. Financial Reporting Council (FRC) have proposed or approved standards that significantly change the independent auditor's report. These initiatives require the auditor to make additional disclosures intended to close the information gap; that is, the gap between the information users desire and the information available through the audited financial statements, other corporate disclosures, and the auditor's report. They are also intended to improve the relevancy of the auditor's report. We augment prior academic research by providing standard setters with an updated synthesis of relevant research. More importantly, we provide an assessment of whether the changes are likely to close the information gap, which is important to financial market participants and other stakeholders in the audit reporting process. Also, we identify areas where there seems to be a lack of sufficient research. These results are of interest to all stakeholders in the audit reporting process, as the changes to the auditor's report are fundamental. Additionally, our summaries of research on the auditor's report highlight where there is limited research or inconsistent results, which will help academics identify important opportunities for future research.

As per International Standards on Auditing (ISAs), auditors are not responsible to detect each and every fraud or error or illegal act as it is the responsibility of management. However, auditors are expected to assess the possibility of an error or fraud to occur and assess risks of material misstatement due to error or fraud and they are supposed to express their independent and objective opinion on financial statements whether financial statements are prepared in accordance to suitable criteria (International Financial Reporting Standards in the case of Bahrain).This quantitative research and its descriptive design aims empirically to analyze determinants that may impact the audit expectation gap in the Kingdom of Bahrain. The study used a detailed questionnaire as a measuring instrument across the sample group to measure 4 determinants that are expected to have a significant impact on the level of the audit expectation gap. Those determinants are the efforts of auditors, the skills of auditors, the knowledge of the public about the audit profession and the users’ needs from auditors. The research inferred that identified factors found to have a significant impact on the level of audit expectation gap. It is recommended that audit firms should provide training to the audit staff that how to utilize the required efforts in conducting an audit engagement and go extra miles to fill the gap. Furthermore, the auditors should keep themselves updated about the latest frauds and the best audit practices.

ABSTRACT This study examines whether managers alter their financial reporting decisions in the face of investment-related pressure. We define investment-related pressure as the increased pressure managers feel to retain their job following an M&A poorly received by the market. We hypothesize that managers attempt to assuage pressure by delivering strong performance post-merger, creating incentives for misreporting. Our findings indicate that acquirers with more negative M&A announcement returns are more likely to misstate financial statements in the post-investment period and the issuance of misstated financials mitigates this pressure, at least in the near term. Our study contributes to the literature on the relation between corporate investing and financial reporting by showing how investment-related pressure leads to misreporting, even in a setting where the costs (e.g., greater probability of detection) are high. Our study also has implications for the large body of research that evaluates various consequences of M&As using post-merger performance. Specifically, researchers should be careful to distinguish real from misstated financial performance in the post-investment period. Data Availability: Data are available from the public sources indicated in the text.

The international harmonization of financial reporting standards in the public sector is one of the significant public sector accounting reforms which have gained prominence in the recent past under the New Public Financial Management order. However, previous empirical evidence provided mixed results on the extent of African countries’ decision on the adoption of International Public Sector Accounting Standards and its relationship with institutional isomorphism factors. The purpose of this study was to examine the influence of institutional isomorphism (normative, mimetic and coercive) on the adoption International Public Sector Accounting Standards by African countries. The target population was 54 countries; however the final sample was 29 countries which comprised the dataset. A logistic regression analysis was thereafter conducted. Based on the Institutional Theory, the study revealed external public funding (coercive isomorphic pressure), the countries’ global competitiveness (mimetic isomorphic pressure), and human capital (normative isomorphic pressure) were non significant factors in a countries decision to adopt IPSAS. This study contributes to the literature on the international accounting in the public sector. The results of the study have significant managerial and theoretical implications for accounting standards regulators, researchers, and multilateral organizations.
