中国注册会计师审计实证研究:理论借鉴、本土特色与国际融合

实证会计研究在我国兴起的二十余年来,经常被讨论的一个问题是理论借鉴有余、本土特色不足.本文围绕注册会计师审计实证研究领域探讨了理论借鉴与本土特色的适配问题,列举了该领域若干较为突出的本土特色.我国新兴的资本市场以及尚处于起步发展阶段的审计职业决定了研究者在借鉴西方市场的理论时,宜充分评估我国制度背景是否与拟借鉴理论的实践基础相匹配.本文还讨论了如何辩证看待本土特色与国际融合的关系.     

An inexact l2-norm penalty method for cardinality constrained portfolio optimization

Abstract

We analyze and solve a single-period portfolio optimization problem with non-convex constraints, which address practical concerns of investment such as the active share weights of sectors and the number of stocks held in a portfolio. We reformulate the problem to simplify the computation and propose an inexact l₂-norm penalty method to solve the problem.     

POI数据辅助下的泸州市城市地块用地类型现状快速判断与验证

［目的］土地利用规划和城市规划的用地地块，在实际使用过程中，都会不同程度与规划用途产生差异，如何把握规划的实施程度是土地管理中的一个重要问题。［方法］在大数据时代的背景下，通过对网络大数据可以真实地反映城市地块的真实使用状况。研究采用OSM（Open Street Map），对研究区进行城市地块的划分，形成街区尺度的城市地块。采用POI（Point of Interest）数据，建立了POI分类与城市用地分类的映射关系，计算了不同类型的POI数据的频数密度和类型比例，形成基于POI的城市地块用地类型识别方法，对研究区的城市地块进行土地利用现状识别。识别结果与第二次土地调查分类结果进行对比，验证方法的可行性。［结果］从泸州市的实证结果看，基于POI数据的城市地块识别结果与基于地籍数据的城市地块识别结果存在很大的差别。地籍数据主要是表针城市地块中不同实体的土地利用状况，两种数据采集的标准和表达的意义都不同，因此造成结果存在较大的差异性。［结论］研究认为，POI点有准确的空间位置信息和丰富的属性信息，主要是表征城市地块中不同实体的真实使用状况，可以较准确地判定快速发展的城市进程中的城市用地类型，能较为真实反映城市地块的现实使用状况，但也要注意POI数据在实际应用中存在的缺陷和不足。     

SNAP and Paycheck Cycles

It is well documented that individuals do not spend the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) benefits smoothly over the month after receipt. Rather, recipients spend a disproportionate share of benefits at the beginning of the benefit month. This has costs for recipients and stores. There is also evidence that other income streams, such as Social Security and paychecks, are not spent smoothly. The presence of these other income streams may bias estimates of the effects of this SNAP cycle on consumption for working SNAP beneficiaries and those who receive other government benefits. We use data from United States Department of Agriculture's National Household Food Acquisition and Purchase Survey to explore how the SNAP cycle is affected by accounting for these other income streams. We find suggestive evidence that the cycle is more pronounced for workers who are paid on a weekly or monthly basis, but little evidence that cycles in other income streams mitigate or exacerbate the SNAP cycle.     

美貌能带来幸福感吗?

作为一项稀缺资源，好的外表能够为个体带来多重溢价和福利。文章基于中国家庭追踪调查（CFPS）数据考察了个体的外貌与主观幸福感之间的关系。研究发现，在控制了影响幸福感的其他因素之后，个体的外貌对其幸福感依然有着显著的正向影响：外貌更具吸引力的个体，其自评的生活满意度更高。外貌的这一影响在不同性别、不同年龄段和不同收入群组中均有所差异。同时，在该影响机制中，个体的经济状况扮演着中介渠道的角色。文章运用访员固定效应和工具变量估计控制了模型的内生性问题。     

Operational risk quantified with spectral risk measures: a refined closed-form approximation

The quantification of operational risk has become an important issue as a result of the new capital charges required by the Basel Capital Accord (Basel II) to cover the potential losses of this type of risk. In this paper, we investigate second-order approximation of operational risk quantified with spectral risk measures (OpSRMs) within the theory of second-order regular variation (2RV) and second-order subexponentiality. The result shows that asymptotically two cases (the fast convergence case and the slow convergence) arise depending on the range of the second-order parameter. We also show that the second-order approximation under 2RV is asymptotically equivalent to the slow convergence case. A number of Monte Carlo simulations for a range of empirically relevant frequency and severity distributions are employed to illustrate the performance of our second-order results. The simulation results indicate that our second-order approximations tend to reduce the estimation errors to a great degree, especially for the fast convergence case, and are able to capture the sub-extremal behavior of OpSRMs better than the first-order approximation. Our asymptotic results have implications for the regulation of financial institutions, and may provide further insights into the measurement and management of operational risk.     

A Multicriteria Approach for Modeling Small Enterprise Credit Rating: Evidence from China

ABSTRACT

As the engine of China’s economy, small enterprises have been the central to the country’s economic development. However, given the characteristics of the small enterprises loan (i.e., short borrowing period, large volume, small amount and incomplete information), it is extremely challenging for financial institutions to assess their creditworthiness. Thus, it seriously delays and restricts the financing access for small enterprises. In an attempt to relieve the financing difficulty of small enterprises, this article makes use of 687 small wholesale and retail enterprises in a regional commercial bank in China, to establish a credit rating indicator system composed of 17 indicators by using both partial correlation analysis and probit regression. It then utilizes TOPSIS together with fuzzy C-means to score the credit ratings of our sample of small enterprises. With the dual test of default discrimination and ROC curve, the prediction accuracy of the established indicator system has reached 80.10% and 0.917, respectively, indicating the robustness and validity of our credit rating system.     

Foreign direct investment subsidy in a dynamic stochastic general equilibrium model with heterogeneous firms

This study analyzes the macroeconomic impacts of subsidies to attract multinational corporations when firms are determining whether to enter or how to serve foreign markets. We show that a small FDI subsidy scheme induces consumption gains and delivers short‐term welfare improvement for the FDI host country if firms differ in productivity. However, the subsidy generates a new problem and results in the wealth reallocation effect, leading to welfare deterioration for the host country in the long run. Moreover, we find that a subsidy program induces a welfare improvement for the host country if it is offered to all domestic producers instead of foreign producers only in the host country.     

广义空间调制系统的正则化OMP检测算法

在广义空间调制（GSM）系统中，最大似然（ML）检测可以取得最优的检测性能，然而其计算复杂度随激活天线数的增加急剧增长。针对这一问题，提出了一种基于稀疏重构理论的低复杂度检测算法——正则化正交匹配追踪（ROMP）算法。该算法首先根据信道矩阵和当前残差的内积选取多个候选激活天线索引，接着对候选天线索引按正则化标准进行可靠性验证，剔除错误索引，缩小信号的搜索空间，最后通过求解最小二乘问题估计信号。仿真结果表明，与经典的正交匹配追踪（OMP）算法相比，所提算法以少许复杂度的增加为代价极大提升了检测性能，能够在检测性能与复杂度之间取得更好的折中。
