AbstractThe purpose of the research in this paper is to examine the regulation and practices of external segment reporting in the Republic of Serbia. The importance of research stems from a great potential usefulness of segment information for investors and creditors. The analysis of regulation suggests that the Republic of Serbia has high-quality and internationally recognized basis of external segment reporting – IFRS 8. However, there is a room for improvement of IFRS 8. The analysis of practices, conducted on a sample of 500 companies, shows that companies in the Republic of Serbia, in general, do not attach great importance to the disclosure of segment information in financial statements. The practices are quite miscellaneous, which is a consequence of the flexibility of IFRS 8, but also an incomplete compliance with IFRS 8. By applying statistical techniques we have examined whether the practices of external segment reporting are related to characteristics of companies, which makes the originality of the paper. We have found that financial institutions disclose more extensive quantitative segment information in relation to other companies in the Republic of Serbia, and that companies with higher assets disclose more extensive segment information. The research indicates that there is a significant room for improving the practices of external segment reporting in the Republic of Serbia. The research results may be useful for regulators of financial reporting and preparers and auditors of financial statements.

The accounting and non-accounting indicators of the risk of interruption of the activity of an economic entity are considered, derived on the basis of a study of the content of regulatory legal acts that establish the conditions for continuing activity, accounting standards and auditing standards. A system of point assessment of the risk of business interruption is proposed and the directions of presenting information about it as part of the explanations to the accounting (financial) statements are determined. The proposed method of risk assessment can be useful for improving the information capabilities of accounting (financial) statements from the positions of key stakeholders.

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to explore the perceptions of external auditors, preparers and users (investors and analysts) of financial statements in Jordan about this new segmental reporting standard; a decision usefulness framework underpins the research. Design/methodology/approach – The objective of this study is to explore the perceptions of external auditors, preparers and users (investors and analysts) of financial statements in Jordan about this new segmental reporting standard; a decision usefulness framework underpins the research. Findings – The findings reveal that a majority of interviewees found that IFRS 8 was not a problematic standard, and that the management approach of IFRS 8 was an improvement on the previous standard – International Accounting Standard (IAS) 14R – because the information produced was seen as useful to users of financial statements. Moreover, the respondents indicated that there was an improvement in the quantity and quality of segmental information under IFRS 8 in annual reports for 2009; it was more understandable, relevant, reliable and comparable than the segmental information which had previously been reported. Research limitations/implications – No attempt was made to assess the usefulness of segmental information reported under IFRS 8 by Jordanian listed companies in their annual reports for other groups such as lenders, suppliers, customers, trade creditors and the general public (IASC, 1989). Thus, a survey about the impact of IFRS 8 on other groups may yield further insights about the decision usefulness of the new standard’s disclosures. However, Jordanians are not familiar with such research instruments and the culture within the society is relatively secretive (Piro, 1998). Practical implications – The findings of the current research should be valuable for international accounting standard setters at the International Accounting Standards Board. It provides some indication about the impact of this new standard. Originality/value – This research shows that segmental information reported under IFRS 8 is more useful for decision makers needs compared to segmental information that previously reported under IAS 14R. It also provides a great insight about the impact of this new segmental disclosure standard.

Currently it is difficult to overestimate importance of work of the enterprises of fuel and energy branch, in particular the oil-extracting companies, the majority of which foreign divisions have. Conducting foreign activity involves numerous external risks, many of which are capable to influence a financial position and financial results of the company negatively. Practice shows that most the enterprises very formally belong to disclosure of information on the risks interfaced to foreign activity. The PEST analysis which is carried out by us allowed revealing risks to which the PJSC Tatneft Company having representation in Libya is subject. In this article practical implementation of requirements of IFRS regarding disclosure in the reporting of information on risks by the PJSC Tatneft Company having division abroad is also considered. On the basis of the analyzed disclosure merits and demerits in the reporting of information on the risks interfaced to conducting foreign activity the uniform technique of disclosure of similar information was developed. In our opinion, the recommended format of disclosure of relevant information will simplify work of the accountant by drawing up financial statements, and to users of such reporting will allow to estimate consequences of foreign activity, to create idea of a financial position of the organization and will provide adoption of rational economic decisions
