Consolidated financial statements does not wholly provide complete information of the company’s activities with many segments. To meet the need of the financial statement users, it is necessary to expose the segmental financial information. The main objective of the exposure of the segmental financial information is to provide information for the users about relativity scale, profit contribution and the growth trend of each company’s segments to enable the financial reports users to better evaluate the company as a whole. The preparation procedure of the segmental financial statement is provided in PSAK No.5. Segmental financial reporting is a must for the ging-public company. However, this segmental report does not preclude the whole consolidated financial statement, because a segmental repot is merely complimentary to make consolidated financial report more informative.

The European Commission initiated a discussion on the expediency of using the International Public Sector Accounting Standards (IPSAS), based on the IAS/IFRS, as a common base for harmonizing the public sector accounting systems of the member states. However, literature suggests that accounting is not neutral with respect to the economic, social and political dimensions. In the perspective of evolution of the accounting regulation outlined, balanced between accountability, with the need to represent phenomena for reporting pur-poses, and decisionmaking issues, which concentrates on the quantitative importance of the values, the paper aims to analyse the effects of the application of different criteria for the definition of the reporting entity of the local government consolidated financial statements (CFS). The Italian PCA 4/4, the test of control and the financial accountability approaches are examined. The evidence that emerged from the case studies examined identifies several criticalities in the Italian PCA 4/4 and support the thesis that the financial accountability approach is more effective in providing a complete representation of the public resources entrusted to and managed by the group, whereas the control approach better approximates quantification of the group results in terms of central government surveillance. The analysis highlights the importance of the post implementation review period and the opportunity to contextualize the adoption of the consolidated financial statement in the broader spectrum of the accounting harmonization process, participating in the process of definition of the European Public Sector Accounting Standards (EPSAS).

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: Brazil is a rare case of a complete adoption of IFRS, not only for consolidated financial statements, but also for the individual ones. Very few countries dared to converge their accounting standards toward IFRS in the company-only financial statements, probably afraid of the tax or dividends impact. Brazil made the ambitious move, changing the Company law and altering the income tax legislation in such a way that a safe path was built to bridge from the old BR GAAP standards to IFRS.

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 purpose of this study is to determine the suitability of the presentation of the An-Nahl Pandaan KPRS financial statements to Syaria FAS. This research uses descriptive qualitative research in which the purpose is to describe and illustrate the application of Sharia Financial Accounting Standards in terms of the financial statements prepared by KPRS An-Nahl Pandaan. The techniques used in data collection are through observation, interviews, documentation, and online data search techniques. The results of the analysis and discussion of this study indicate that most of the financial statement presentations in KPRS An-Nahl are in accordance with Sharia FAS even though only the entity only reports the financial position (Balance Sheet). From the An-Nahl KPRS financial report that looks very prominent the discrepancy is that An-Nahl KPRS does not make the six other financial report components listed in the Sharia FAS because the KPRS An-Nahl management itself does not yet understand how to prepare financial reports in accordance with applicable standards.
