This study empirically investigated the relationship between human resource accounting and shareholders wealth maximization of selected quoted manufacturing firms in Nigeria from 2000-2016.  Time series data was generated from the Annual Reports of the quoted firms. Twenty manufacturing firms were selected from the population of quoted manufacturing firms.  Two multiple regression models were specified and estimated with the aid of Software package for social services (SPSS). Return on investment was modeled as the function of capital and revenue expenditure components of human resource accounting. The generated collinearity diagnostics result shows that the Eigen values that correspond to the highest condition index and variable constant are consistent with the rule of thumb. The Durbin Watson test shows absence of auto-correlation. From the expenditure component, we found correlation coefficient of 71.3%, R2 and the Adjusted R2 shows that 50.8% and 36.0%. The explanatory power of the predictor variables shows that all the independent variables have positive but insignificant relationship with return on investment of the manufacturing firms except cost of human resource acquisition. The revenue expenditure proved   R2 and the adjusted R2 of 61.0% and 49.3% explained variation on return on investment. The coefficient of the independent variables proved that salaries, wages and bonus have positive relationship with return on investment of the selected manufacturing firms while commission and allowances have positive effect on return on investment. It concludes that human resource accounting has significant relationship with shareholders wealth maximization of the selected manufacturing firms. We recommend that all human capital expenditure should properly be accounted for and the need to investment on human capital of the firms.

In today's knowledge driven economy, mere procurement and management of tangible assets is not the end for survival and growth of an organization. Historically, companies had focused primarily on measuring and managing the tangible assets. There are other assets, which are often overlooked – Intangible Assets. Organizations lead towards success because of inherent intangible assets. The problems start when managers try to measure the intangible wealth with traditional measurement tools available to them. The focus of this paper is to highlight the importance of managing and measuring intangible asset – human capital, which is overlooked in traditional accounting system.

The current study aimed at understanding the impact of Human Resource Accounting practices on decision making in an organization. The research was conducted on a private company in Kurdistan. Researchers constructed a model where predictor variable is Human Resource Accounting Practices and Predicted variable is Decision making. The Research has null hypothesis and alternative hypothesis where the null hypothesis was“There is no significant relationship between Human Resource Accounting Practices and Decision Making”. The alternative hypothesis was “There is significant relationship between Human Resource Accounting Practices and Decision Making”. The sample size for the current research was 107 where researcher distributed 120 questionnaires where 13 questionnaires were not filled properly. Researchers used quantitative method to analyze the results of the current research. The questionnaire consists of 20 questions which were organized randomly to avoid bias based responses from the respondents. Researchers concluded that HRA hasa strong positive effect on decision making where alternative hypothesis was accepted and null hypothesis got rejected. The sample size was low as the researcher conducted pilot study on this area and may get different results by increasing the sample size and demographics. The present research helps the organization to understand the importance of Human Resource Accounting and the effect of HRA on decision making

The study examined the influence of Human Resource Accounting (HRA) practices on managerial decision-making. Data for the study were gathered via a structured questionnaire on a 5-Points Likert Scale administered on personnel of Accounting, and Audit/Internal Control departments which were considered to be the relevant departments for this study in 16 quoted firms in the Nigerian financial services sector. The questionnaires distributed were returned and analyzed using a simple regression analysis model. The study found that HRA has a significant impact on managerial decision-making of organizations. It was therefore recommended that organizations should be more proactive in the use of HRA to enhance decision-making. Necessary and relevant standards should also be provided on the need for recognizing human resource cost in organizations’ statement of financial position in order to enhance adequate decision-making in business organizations premised on fair financial reporting.

Purpose – The aim of the research is to identify the impact of efficiency of intellectual capital and its components on the performance of socially responsible companies included in the WIG-Energy index. Research method – Various methods of research were used in this paper, such as the method of desk research consisting of an analysis of data contained in the annual reports of socially responsible companies included in the WIG-Energy index, the VAIC™ method which has been used to measure the intellectual capital, as well as Pearson correlation coefficients and the linear regression analysis, which were the basis for the study of the impact of intellectual capital efficiency on selected measures describing the performance of analysed companies. Results – The conducted studies showed the impact of intellectual capital efficiency on the return on equity (ROE) and the current market valuation of the book value measured by the P/BV ratio (price/book value). However, they did not show a significant impact on return on assets (ROA). In addition, the studies have pointed at the diversified impact of intellectual capital components on the measures describing the performance of socially responsible companies included in the WIG-Energy index. The return on equity (ROE) is significantly influenced by the efficiency of structural and human capital. In turn, the current market valuation of the book value (P/BV) is significantly influenced by the efficiency of human capital. Originality /value / implications /recommendations – The article intends to fill the gap in the field of intellectual capital in the context of its impact on the performance of energy sector companies. This aspect is still underrepresented in research. However, this is currently a significant issue because, for such types of companies that base their activities on specialist knowledge and modern technologies, the intellectual capital becomes a key factor for success. This paper provides a starting point for further research. Therefore, the focus is solely on companies from the WIG-Energy index simultaneously belonging to the WIG-ESG index, which covers companies that meet the highest standards in the field of corporate social responsibility.
