The principle of continuity in financial reporting is a fundamental element in the preparation of financial reporting. The final amounts of a financial report are, by definition, the opening amounts of the following year. Of course, the reverse is also true. The opening values of one year represent the closing values of the previous year. In Italy, this principle is only half applied in taxation. It applies to the future (i.e. the following year) but does not apply to the past (i.e. the previous year). Of particular interest is the position of the Italian Court of Cassation, i.e. the highest court of justice, which applies this principle of "lame continuity" in its judgments. Despite the astonishment of scholars, the Court of Cassation continues to consider that the final inventories of one year represent the initial inventories of the following year but does not accept as an obligation the opposite case. Only time will tell if it will resolve this dispute between the Supreme Court and the basic principles of business economics regarding financial reports.

ABSTRACT Financial reports for an organization are very fundamental. This is a form of transparency for the finances of an organization, especially for non-profit organizations such as the Child Social Welfare Institution (LKSA Nurul Iman) which is a community service partner this time. We from the Business Administration Study Program, Faculty of Economics and Business, Bina Sarana Informatika University held a community service with the main theme being a Workshop on Making Basic Financial Reports for Non-Profit Organizations for Students of the Child Welfare Institution (LKSA Nurul Iman). The main problem why we raised this theme is because LKSA Nurul Iman touches more on programs that are religious in nature, even though the challenges ahead are more difficult and global so that teenagers who are currently studying must be given general knowledge, one of which is understanding financial reporting. Departing from these problems, we provide a solution in the form of a financial report preparation workshop, where we will describe the steps for making financial reports that are easily understood by their age. The method we use in community service this time is in the form of a workshop by providing examples of how to make basic financial reports and immediately put them into practice so that participants can absorb the material provided. The implementation of community service this time is still online using the Zoom application. The use of the Zoom application is due to the pandemic that has not ended and is still PPKM level 2. The output achieved in this community service is in the form of a Press Release which will be published in online media. Hopefully this activity will have a positive impact where the skills gained can be used in the future for the benefit of the Foundation and become provisions when they apply for jobs or establish an organization.

This paper investigates the history of, and trends in, non-financial reporting, based on title analysis. The database consists of the titles of non-financial reports issued by FT 500 corporations from 1989 to 2007. The frequency and development of the three key words environment, <br />sustainability and responsibility (coded as “environment”, “sustainab” and<br />“responsib” to catch relevant versions) are investigated.  The key words were initially applied by a few companies, and then grew in popularity. While “sustainab” and “responsib” are still growing in popularity, “environment” grew, peaked around 2002 and then reduced in frequency as a term in the titles. Based on business theories, the paper discusses alternative explanations for why corporations introduced the new key words in their non-financial reports. Whereas issuing non-financial reports can be understood from a legitimacy perspective, the introduction of new key words in the titles can be explained by a multitude of alternative theories. <br /><br />

Abstract   The main purpose of the investment activity is to obtain profits for both the company and the investor. To generate profits for investors, the company requires initial capital to manage its operational to do business. In general, investors will make investment decisions based on the intrinsic value of the company or based on the growth of the company’s profitability from the previous period. To measure those reference, investors needs historical data of financial reports as a baseline to calculate and for comparison. The barriers for startup companies are the lack or unavailability of historical financial data due to the age of startups more likely in the early stages (less than or equal to one year). This research uses the method of discounted cash flows based on the company's financial report. The rates of return to discount the cashflow are based on return from real assets, such as gold and property and stock price as financial asset. The result shows that the company is good enough to be one of investment alternative since its net present value is positive for all rate of return and its payback period is relatively short.   Key words Discounted Cash flow, Intrinsic Value, Startup Company, Angel Investors

For two months they had maltreated me, tortured me, kept me handcuffed and blindfolded; I had eaten badly, slept on the floor covered with just a filthy blanket and had no news about my family, who in turn must have thought me dead-all this without being accused of any crime.' This is how Enrique Larreta sums up his terrifying ordeal at the hands of the Argentinian and Uruguayan security forces in the summer and autumn of last year. A 55-year-old journalist with an unblemished record and no political involvement of any kind, he went to Buenos Aires in July 1976 to search for his son, who had disappeared. The son, also a journalist, 26 years old and married with a five-year-old child, had been living in Argentina for the past three years. He had been a student leader in Uruguay and was arrested by the Army in 1972, held incommunicado for nine months, interrogated and tortured, before being released as there was no evidence against him. Until his disappearance he had worked for the Buenos Aires newspaper, El Cronista Comercial. Enrique Larreta joined his daughter-in-law in attempting to trace the missing journalist and to secure his release. On 2 July he presented a writ of habeas corpus, requesting the court that the police, the Ministry of Defence, the Ministry of the Interior, and the other security forces be asked about his whereabouts. A few days later he was told that the authorities had no record of his son and that he had not been detained. Enrique Larreta then contacted a number of organisations, including the United Nations High Commission for Refugees, the Episcopal Council, and Dr Abelardo Rossi, a member of the Court of Justice. Everyone assured him of their sympathies but said they were unable to help. A member of the Supreme Court pointed out that on the same day over six thousand writs of habeas corpus had been received in cases similar to his. Undeterred, he wrote letters to various individuals and institutions, and he publicised his son's disappearance in Buenos Aires newspapers. What follows is an abbreviated version of Enrique Larreta's statement, which he made at the London offices of Amnesty International during his visit to England in March this year.

The IASB’s conceptual framework for financial reporting identifies multiple measurement bases and concludes that an entity may employ more than one measurement base in constructing the financial reports. The framework further clarify situations as to how the preparers will proceed in constructing the entity’s financial report where the preparers are satisfied that a piece of information is relevant to the users of financial reports, but is subject to a high degree of measurement uncertainty. The purpose of this paper is to critically evaluate the choice of multiple measurement bases in the conceptual framework and highlight the challenges posed to a user of financial reports who seeks to obtain insights into an entity’s financial performance and position through reading reports constructed using an eclectic approach to measurement.

ABSTRACT The Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) has been actively engaged in the process of making improvements to the financial reporting model to provide more useful information to the users of the financial reports of governmental entities. The GASB proposed three recognition approaches to replace the current financial resources reporting model for governmental funds. The three approaches vary along a time dimension. The “near-term” model is the most similar to the current model with a specified reporting period of 60–90 days. A “short-term” model extends the transaction reporting to be the government's one-year operating cycle. Finally, a “long-term” model would report both current and noncurrent assets and liabilities for governmental funds.
