论政府间税收竞争关系的税法调整

政府间税收竞争的产生,既有财政分权的原因,也有政府绩效的理由。税收竞争若能依循秩序要求,将有益于资源配置的优化和公共服务质量的提高。经济转型国家的税收竞争更易进退失据、逾越正当界限。为保证税收竞争发挥积极作用,防止税收不当竞争引起的混乱,必须构建调整税收竞争关系的法律体系。     

审计计划中的审计成本核算和绩效目标探究

审计过程在某种意义上就是审计风险的控制过程。而对审计风险的控制必然要付出一定的代价,这个代价就是审计过程中耗费的成本,即审计风险控制成本或者审计成本。降低审计风险必然会加大审计成本,直接减少审计净收益;减少审计成本必然会提高审计风险,加大审计风险损失,间接减少审计净收益。就一个组织(政府或者企业)而言,审计计划必须充分考虑成本——效益原则,当然政府审计和民间审计的成本——效益原则内涵不同。与民间审计相比,政府审计的成本-效益度量更加复杂,综合考虑的因素更多。此外,审计计划中还存在一个不容忽视的前提条件,即审计…     

独立审计与公司治理结构的关系

独立审计服务的与众不同之处在于,作为审计服务购买方的被审计单位对审计服务的需求不是内生性的,而是来自于外界(例如,证券交易监督委员会、债权银行或外部股东)的法定义务,被审计单位本身不存在对审计服务的需求。审计服务的真正需求者是被审计单位的外部利益关系人,例如:投资者、债权人、税务机关、政府采购机关、学者等等。审计服务是衡量被审计单位的财务报表在多大程度上公允地、一致地披露了被审计单位的财务状况、经营成果与财务变动情况,审计服务通过诸如审计抽样等技术方法来检查被审计单位的财务报告与公认会计准则的符合程度来…

Managing and financing metropolitan public services in China: experience of the Pearl River Delta region

Under China’s current fiscal policies and inter-governmental relations, it is a significant challenge to finance and deliver public services across jurisdictions. This challenge was met in the Pearl River Delta region in southern China with a collaborative governance approach. Directives from higher-level governments and horizontal inter-city fiscal arrangements were successfully combined to deliver public services.

Independent director cash compensation and earnings management

This study examines the impact of independent directors’ cash compensation on firms’ financial reporting quality using a sample of Chinese listed companies from 2002 to 2008. Unlike in the U.S. where most listed firms provide stock-related compensations to outside directors, Chinese listed companies compensate independent directors with cash only. This context offers a cleaner setting for examining the effects of independent director cash pay on earnings management. Our study documents a positive association between independent director cash compensation and the magnitude of earnings management. This suggests that compensating independent directors with higher cash pay compromises their independence and reduces their effectiveness in financial reporting oversight. Our results are robust to an array of sensitivity checks. These findings have important implications for both investors and policy makers by showing that independent directors’ cash compensation is also a significant determinant of financial reporting quality.     

Housing Preferences of Temporary Migrants in Urban China in the wake of Gradual Hukou Reform: A Case Study of Shenzhen

In the wake of the recent announcement by the State Council concerning the provision of public rental housing across China, and the gradual reform of China's household registration system (hukou), this article explores how potential adjustments in government housing policies (namely access to public rental housing) influence the housing preferences of temporary migrants who are currently residing inside the chengzhongcun (urban villages) of Shenzhen. The results indicate that dissatisfaction with rental cost and living conditions in these urban villages are the key reasons for migrants wishing to move into public rental housing if it is offered to them — and not the fact that they are treated differently within the hukou system. Public rental housing is welcomed in particular by newly arriving migrants who live outside the Shenzhen Special Economic Zone (SEZ), and migrants who have decided to remain in Shenzhen for the foreseeable future. By contrast, dissatisfaction with urban villages is the sole contributor to housing preferences for those residing inside the SEZ.

跨境资本流动宏观审慎管理与资本管制的比较研究

充分发挥跨境资本流动宏观审慎管理和资本管制这两种工具的比较优势,对于维护我国金融稳定具有重大的现实意义。跨境资本流动宏观审慎管理通过改变境内借款者向境外贷款所面临的实际利率,提高境内借款人的融资成本,遏制其过度借贷,具有防范化解的特征,适合常规使用;资本管制通过阻断境内居民与非居民间的金融交易,隔离国内和国际金融市场,具有强制性特征,可作为最后手段。这两种政策工具都有一定的负面影响,也可能降低繁荣时期的经济增长速度。在新的国内外形势下,我国应进一步完善跨境资本流动预警监测体系,优化管理框架和法律制度,丰富政策工具箱,强化货币政策和跨境资本流动管理政策的双支柱调控框架,加强政策工具之间的协调与配合,强化信息披露和预期引导,加强与主体经济体的政策协调。
