现金流量表的内容与方法尚须改进

一、现金流量表的性质根据现行会计准则和会计制度 ,现金流量表是财务报表体系的三大主要报表之一 ,因而重要性与利润表、资产负债表相同。利润表、资产负债表通过其数据不仅反映经营成果和财务状况 ,而且还具体反映并界定企业和有经济关系各方的权益。而现金流量表不反映也不界定权益 ,与所有者、债权人的利益关系不大 ,故属非权益性报表。非权益性报表 ,是可替代的 ,现行的现金流量表就是几经变换的结果。这种非权益性决定了现金流量表在财务报表体系中的从属地位。权益性特征 ,是财务报表区别于统计报表和其他业务报表的主要标志。因此 ,…     

现金流量表的作用及信息运用

现金流量表是反映企业在某一特定时期内现金流入、流出及流入流出净额状况的财务报表,它如同桥梁沟通了资产负债表和利润表的会计信息,是对资产负债表和利润表的动态补充。现金流量表进一步完善了企业的对外会计报表体系,从而向报表使用者提供更全面、有用的信息。     

新准则体系下财务报表分析的策略

一、新准则体系下财务报表分析的重点 在新准则体系下,财务报告的组成内容由资产负债表、利润表、现金流量表、所有者权益（股东权益）变动表及报表附注构成。新准则实施后,外部报表信息使用者为了分析公司的获利能力、营运能力、偿债能力和发展能力等,必须系统了解、掌握按新准则披露的报表信息的含义,以做出正确的决策。财务报表分析的重点体现在以下几方面：     

论现金流量表在企业财务分析中的作用

一、现金流量表的基本原理 现金流量表是指反映企业在一定期间现金和现金等价物流入和流出的会计报表。它是将权责发生制下的盈利信息调整为收付实现制下的现金流量信息,方便信息使用者了解企业净利润的质量。现金流量表分为经营活动、投资活动和筹资活动三个部分,各包含一些具体项目,这些项目从不同角度反映企业经营活动的现金流入与流出,弥补了资产负债表和利润表提供信息的不足。通过现金流量表,报表使用者能够了解现金流量的影响因素,评价企业的支付能力、偿债能力和周转能力,预测企业未来现金流量,为其决策提供有力依据。     

浅议利润表的完善

企业对外提供的报表主要有资产负债表、利润表、现金流量表及附表.一般情况下,使用者需要更详细的利润表而不是详细的资产负债表与现金流量表.利润表作为动态报表,能灵活地反映企业某一特定期间的生产经营成果.利润表是把一定期间的营业收入与相同期间相关的营业费用进行配比,从而得出该期间的净利润(或净亏损).不难看出,收入和费用的变动趋势直接影响利润趋势,进而影响投资者分析企业今后利润的发展趋势及获利能力.     

财务报表与财务报告的区别

财务报表与财务报告是有区别的，但不少人常将这两个名词混同使用。美国财务会计准则委员会在《企业财务报表的确定与计量》中认为：财务报表包括企业对外公布的主要报表（财务状况表、盈利和全面收益表、现金流量表及投资与分配业主表）以及报表附注；英国审计准则委员会１９９５年１１月关于财务报告的原则公告（征求意见稿）中提出的财务报表包括：损益表、全部已确认利得与损失表、资产负债表、现金流量表以及报表的附注；我国将财务报表的范围限定为：企业对外公布的基本报表（资产负债表、利润表和现金流量表等）和报表附注。财务报告…     

财务报告在企业中的作用及改进设想

以资产负债表、损益表、现金流量表为主要形式构成了财务信息报告制度。根据决策有用理论，财务报表的目的是对信息使用者提供经济决策中关于企业财务状况、经营业绩、财务状况变动的对决策有用的会计信息。而这些信息主要通过资产负债表、损益表、现金流量表及其相关内容附注等形式体现，而财务信息报告制度，能基本满足使用者关于企业财务资源、财务状况的大体了解。在企业外部环境相对稳定的市场条件下，尚可基本保证信息使用者的“决策有用性”要求。     

上市公司财务报表分析指标体系的构建

上市公司财务报表分析是以企业的资产负债表、利润表、现金流量表及其它相关资料为主要依据，对企业的财务状况和经营成果进行评价和剖析，反映企业在运营过程中的利弊得失和发展趋势，从而为改进企业财务管理工作和优化经济决策提供重要财务信息。上市公司财务报表分析的指标体系包括偿债能力指标、运营能力指标、盈利能力指标和发展能力指标。     

企业会计准则第32号——中期财务报告

第一章总则第一条为了规范中期财务报告的内容和编制中期财务报告应当遵循的确认与计量原则,根据《企业会计准则——基本准则》,制定本准则。第二条中期财务报告,是指以中期为基础编制的财务报告。中期是指短于一个完整的会计年度的报告期间。第二章中期财务报告的内容第三条中期财务报告至少应当包括资产负债表、利润表、现金流量表和附注。中期资产负债表、利润表和现金流量表应当是完整报表,其格式和内容应当与上年度财务报表相一致。当年新施行的会计准则对财务报表格式和内容作了修改的,中期财务报表应当按照修改后的报表格式和内容编…     

现金流量表舞弊手法及其防范

现金流量表作为继资产负债表、利润表之后企业需对外报送的第三张报表，对于投资者的决策起着越来越重要的作用本文对现金流量表的操纵手法进行了分析，并在此基础上提出了几点防范建议。     

Development in Information and Communications Technology (ICT) Statistics at the Australian Bureau of Statistics

This paper outlines the ICT statistical developments that the ABS has undertaken over recent years. These developments have been on both the supply side (ICT industry) and the demand side (use of IT by sector). The content of ABS ICT surveys has changed significantly over the last few years and are expected to develop further in line with industry changes and emerging policy needs.
Recent developments in household collections have been the inclusion of IT use questions in the 2001 Census of Population and Housing and in various ABS social surveys such as Children's Participation in Culture and Leisure Activities. Annual business IT use surveys are now conducted and include topics such as Internet commerce and IT security. Biennial ICT industry surveys are conducted to provide data on ICT production, imports and exports, ICT industry employment, performance and structure information. An Internet activity survey is run every six months and provides regional Internet access details and infrastructure details on Internet service providers.
A major development for 2002–03 will be the compilation of an ICT satellite account. ABS intends to produce an ICT Information Development Plan to guide its future statistical development work in the ICT field.     

Incumplimiento del salario mínimo en Europa central y oriental

En este estudio se analiza el incumplimiento del salario mínimo durante el periodo 2003–2012 en diez países de Europa central y oriental con salario mínimo obligatorio nacional. A partir de los datos de EU‐SILC y la metodología propuesta por Bhorat, Kanbur y Mayet (2013), se cuantifica la incidencia y magnitud del incumplimiento. Se realizan análisis de regresión sobre determinantes individuales, laborales y macroeconómicos. Aunque la incidencia permanece relativamente baja, los trabajadores a los que se dirigen las políticas de salario mínimo parecen los más expuestos a su incumplimiento. Con el tiempo, una mayor incidencia se asocia a una razón más alta entre salario mínimo y salario medio.     

Value at Risk in the Suburbs: Eminent Domain and the Geographical Politics of the US Foreclosure Crisis

Several US counties and local governments have recently considered a novel solution to the foreclosure crisis. They plan to use eminent domain to compel the owners of mortgage debt—and specifically of private‐label mortgage‐backed securities—to sell the debt to the government at a price reflecting the loan's market value. The government would then restructure the debt and resell it to new investors. The plans are striking because—in contrast to both development‐driven eminent domain and the federal subprime bank bailout—they would force investors to assume asset devaluation and increased long‐term risk. Notably, the plans have emerged as an instance of financialization‐focused politics in suburbs and suburban cities of color, specifically majority‐black and ‐Latino/a suburbs. Local support for the plans, we argue, is rooted in the long‐term disinvestment of these ‘suburbs of exception', which became targets of subprime lending and eventually sites where the ‘financial exception' has been localized. But these demographic shifts, fragmentation and fiscal pressures have at the same time created a suburban political terrain in which the plans have gained their strongest political support.     

Towards a Theory of Serendipity: A Systematic Review and Conceptualization

Serendipity – the notion of making surprising and valuable discoveries – plays a major role in the success of individuals and organizations alike. Previous research has established the importance of serendipity and identified important individual- and organizational-level antecedents. However, the literature has been dispersed and the boundaries of the concept have been blurry, leading to a lack of conceptual clarity and structure, and thus limiting validity and managerial actionability. Based on a systematic literature review, I synthesize existing management-related research on serendipity and explicate the emergence and composition of serendipity in the organizational context. I first identify three necessary conditions that differentiate serendipity from related concepts such as luck or targeted innovation: agency, surprise, and value. Then, I draw from the literature on sensemaking, event-based theorizing, and quantum-based approaches to management to conceptualize the process of cultivating serendipity in the organizational context as a process of enabling potentiality and materialization, and develop a multi-level theory of (cultivating) serendipity. This conceptualization contributes to our collective understanding of how, why, and when (i.e., under what conditions) organizations can leverage the value in the unexpected, which opens up fruitful avenues for further research.     

Accountability of NGOs in Bangladesh A critical overview

NGOs in Bangladesh have been recognized as effective change agents in the socio-economic arena throughout the world. Their contributions in micro credit, non-formal education and primary health care are widely known. NGOs play a significant role in society. NGO accountability, as a result, has become a critical issue. NGO accountability in Bangladesh has been examined here in relation to patrons, clients and themselves. Of the three relationships only accountability to patrons is in a near satisfactory state. Accountability to clients is handicapped by lack of opportunities of beneficiaries to participate meaningfully in NGO policy making. Accountability to themselves is adversely affected due to the adherence to a strictly hierarchical system and the influence of founding and charismatic NGO leaders.     

Towards an Asian model of human resource management? A comparative analysis of China,Japan and South Korea

There has been much discussion regarding the possible decline and weakening of national systems of human resource management (HRM). Yet, culture and institutions are often cited as the major stumbling blocks to this outcome. Such constraints may dissipate in the analysis, particularly if ‘regional clusters’ are considered where geographic and cultural closeness and ‘openness’ to similar economic pressures exist. In such cases, it might be postulated that convergence in HRM will occur. We argue that China, Japan and South Korea represent such a cluster. This article examines these countries, to see if a degree of convergence is taking place and if it is towards an identifiable ‘Asian’ model of HRM. A model of change is presented that distinguishes between levels of occurrence and acceptance. Details of the development and practice of HRM in each country are then set out. The article ends with a discussion and implications section and a brief conclusion.     

Cultural Economy Planning in Creative Cities: Discourse and Practice

While a growing body of research analyses the functional mechanisms of the cultural or creative economy, there has been little attention devoted to understanding how local governments translate this work into policy. Moreover, research in this vein focuses predominately on Richard Florida's creative class thesis rather than considering the wider body of work that may influence policy. This article seeks to develop a deeper understanding of how municipalities conceptualize and plan for the cultural economy through the lens of two cities held up as model ‘creative cities’ — Austin, Texas and Toronto, Ontario. The work pays particular attention to how the cities adopt and adapt leading theories, strategies and discourses of the cultural economy. While policy documents indicate that the cities embrace the creative city model, in practice agencies tend to adapt conventional economic development strategies for cultural economy activity and appropriate the language of the creative city for multiple purposes.     

Input/output ranges and performance: an examination of US machine tool producers

Despite the establishment of high-tech multinational enterprises (MNEs) in Ireland since the late 1950s, the country did not succeed in closing the technological gap with most of its EU counterparts. The weak National System of Innovation (NSI), and in particular low business and government R&D levels, combined with a lack of research and technology linkages between MNEs and indigenous firms, explain these poor results. However, the Shannon region in the West of the country presents some specific institutional characteristics that could theoretically make the region a strong technological enclave. The various actors in the region - i.e. the administrative, financial, political and research institutions, as well as the business organizations - have indeed infused a new type of economic development. After a brief review of the available concepts and models articulated around these actors and their interrelationships, the paper analyses whether the Shannon region, taken as an illustrative example, mirrors a specific economic and technological localized setting. The study is based on a survey of indigenous and foreign firms.     

Sixty years of discrimination and diversity research in human resource management: A review with suggestions for future research directions

This article reviews discrimination and diversity research published in Human Resource Management (HRM) over the past 60 years. While discrimination and diversity are very different constructs, it is often informative to study them together, because when people recognize each other's diversity, this can result in bias, stereotyping, and discrimination. We conducted bibliographic searches for terms related to discrimination and diversity as well as a manual search through every title and abstract published in HRM over the last 60 years to assess article relevance. The search resulted in 135 research articles with 136 unique studies (i.e., samples) which are reviewed in this article. Sex and race are the demographics that have been examined the most in HRM, while religion has been examined the least. Moreover, the number of studies examining lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer (LGBTQ) employees in the workplace in HRM has grown quickly within the past 10 years, culminating in a recent meta‐analysis. Our review looks at some of the earliest research published, the most recent research published, and the overall trends we identified in the research over the years for both discrimination and diversity articles. We then make future research suggestions and recommendations to advance the study of discrimination and diversity in the coming years.     

Multinomial distributions applied to random sampling of particulate materials

When sampling a batch consisting of particulate material, the distribution of a sample estimator can be characterized using knowledge about the sample drawing process. With Bernoulli sampling, the number of particles in the sample is binomially distributed. Because this is rarely realized in practice, we propose a sampling design in which the possible samples have a nearly equal mass. Expected values and variances of the sample estimator are calculated. It is shown that the sample estimator becomes identical to the Horvitz–Thompson estimator in the case of a large batch-to-sample mass ratio and a large sample mass. Simulations and experiments were performed to test the theory. Simulations confirm that the round-off error due to the discrete nature of particles is negligible for large sample sizes. Sampling experiments were carried out with a mixture of PolyPropylene (PP) and PolyTetraFluorEthylene (PTFE) spheres suspended in a viscous medium. The measured and theoretical variations are in good agreement.
