In 1997 a review of the financial health of English county cricket highlighted strategic weaknesses within the professional game, principally an over-reliance by clubs on the annual grants provided to them by the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB). Without such grants the teams, in general terms, would be insolvent. Using the financial statements of the First Class Cricket Counties, this paper explores how the financial position and performance of the county game has changed, 20 years on from the seminal study. A series of structural changes to the game had been made, yet financial problems are still evident. Counties are as reliant on central grant income as they were in 1997, although there are cases where clubs have made strategic enhancements and are becoming self-sustainable as going concerns. Rather than the ECB directly funding county revenue it should be working in collaboration with individual clubs to achieve developments in the game from the grassroots upwards, in order to help clubs grow their own revenue streams.

AbstractGiven the changes in the Irish economy since the economic crisis and, more specifically, reforms in the local government sector, this paper reassesses the financial position and fiscal sustainability of local authorities in Ireland. To do this we employ a local government financial performance framework that measures liquidity and solvency, but also operating performance and collection rates, for different sources of revenue income. Using financial data sourced from local council income and expenditure accounts and balance sheets, we report and analyse the financial position and performance during the 2007–17 period. The results indicate an improvement in the financial performance of local councils since the early 2010s. Cross-council differences persist, in particular, between large urban local authorities and smaller rural local authorities, albeit only for the liquidity and operating performance measures. Among the small rural councils, Sligo County Council’s financial position, although improving, remains a serious matter with ongoing consultation with and monitoring by central government. To help improve the measurement of local authority financial performance we recommend inclusion of this framework in the local authority Annual Financial Statement and also in the Performance Indicator Report with a view to making financial reports more accessible and transparent to citizens and taxpayers and, ultimately, to help improve performance and service delivery by the local authorities.

Abstract Financial statements represent an instrument by which relevant information about a company is passed on to its users. Based on the information presented in the financial statements, i.e. information on the financial position and performance of the company, and generated cash flows and capital, users make business decisions. Specific accounting policies serve as the basis for the preparation of quality financial statements. Management is responsible for the preparation and presentation of financial statements and selects accounting policies. Although simple, the issue of choosing the accounting policies can be extremely delicate and complex. Besides management, there are other stakeholders who may be affected by this issue. As a consequence, there are complex relationships that affect the choice of accounting policies, and thus the quality of financial statements.

Nowadays, when the contribution of agriculture and agro-food industry to the GDP is a significant, in Romania?s case we appreciate that the economic aspects of this area also deserve a specific approach. The aim of this paper was to identify the incompatibility of the recognition and assessment criteria of agriculture production, biological assets and agriculture products imposed by the application of these standards in agro-food companies, and to analyze its effects concerning the financial position and performance of these entities. The paper takes into consideration the economic-financial harmonization process, which is now in full progress, both in the EU and other states, by applying the specific standards (IAS/IFRS) in the preparation of annual/interim financial reports. Finally, referring strictly to the case of Romania, after thorough research into the field in question, we suggest a presentation of the controversial assessment criteria provided by the IAS 41 standard, and also refer to the difficulties related to the implementation of this standard in the agro-food industry.

Financial Impacts

Tourism is a vulnerable sector to risk-related events such as natural disasters, terrorist attacks, economic crises, or infectious diseases. After the outbreak of COVID-19 being confirmed a pandemic in March 2020, the operations of tourism companies decreased sharply due to the restrictions and measures imposed as the virus was being transmitted easily between people through droplets or particles that float in the air. Therefore, this chapter focuses on the financial impacts of COVID-19 on tourism by examining the financial statements and disclosures of some listed companies. Although there are some studies on the potential effects of the COVID-19 on the economy or the businesses, there are hardly any concerning the financial impact of the pandemic on tourism companies as of the end of pandemic's first year. This study identifies the effect of COVID-19 on the financial position and performance of tourism companies, COVID-19 related risks, the strategies implemented by companies and their possible impact on operations.
