中国会计国际化与会计盈余的价值相关性

Using financial reports of AB-share listed companies in China from 1996 to 2003, this paper attempts to evaluate the impact of accounting internationalization in China by comparing time serial value-relevance differences between Chinese Accounting Standards (CAS) and International Accounting Standards (IAS). Empirical evidence from relative information content test indicates that unexpected earnings reported under IAS have more information content to A-share investors than those under CAS. However, the relative value-relevance of IAS is weakened through the accounting internationalization process. Moreover, empirical evidence from incremental information content test shows that the incremental value-relevance of IAS is also weakened through the accounting harmonization process. Further empirical evidence demonstrates that CAS earnings appear to substitute for CAS earnings in the valuation process to the extent to which CAS is harmonized with IAS.      

卫生院科室成本核算方法研究

长期以来,我国乡镇一级卫生院的经济效益不是很高,这与卫生院科室成本核算有很大的关系.尤其是随着市场经济的不断深入和发展,传统的科室成本核算方法已经难以适应现代卫生院发展的需要.因此,要想提高卫生院的经济管理水平,我们必须对卫生院各科室的收支状况、预算执行情况等进行系统、全面的反映,这使得卫生院各科室的成本如何核算,采取何种方法进行核算就显得特别重要,本文将对此进行重点论述.     

目标定位下的我国会计信息质量特征体系构建

会计目标决定会计信息的质量特征,而会计信息的质量特征又反过来保障会计目标的实现。在会计目标定位下,构建一套系统完善的会计信息质量特征体系,不仅有利于会计理论的进一步发展完善,而且对于全面有效地提高会计信息质量水准、遏制日益严重的会计信息失真具有重要意义。     

Assessing the usefulness of store card data in direct sales of financial services

The UK financial services market has expanded in recent years through the addition of several non-traditional players. We evaluate the extent to which this increased supply of services is best channelled through existing retail locations or whether products are better promoted and managed via direct marketing methods. Using a UK grocer/retailer's lifestyle customer database for an urban store and an out-of-centre location, we analyse a regional sample of customers who have received financial services mail-shots. The use of GIS and logistic regression enables the determination of the extent to which mail respondents have distinctive characteristics in terms of wealth, financial service ownership and proximity to store. Finally, we discuss the implications of our empirical study for in-store financial services support and draw some general conclusions based on our assessment of the usefulness of lifestyles data in such applications.

Using response behaviour theory to solicit survey participation in consumer research: An empirical study

Abstract

The purpose of this article is to report on research that examines survey participation rates (i.e. response rates) for personal interview surveys where solicitation for participation is based on different theories of survey-response behaviour in two culturally distinct countries. Field experiments were designed to investigate the extent to which the theories of exchange, cognitive dissonance, self-perception, and involvement/commitment can influence potential respondents to participate in a personal interview survey in Australia and Hong Kong. The results show that there were significant differences in Australia with the theory of self-perception having the strongest impact on survey-response behaviour, while cognitive dissonance has the least impact. In contrast, the effects in Hong Kong were not significant. This study adds to the limited empirical research regarding why consumers participate in surveys, particularly personal interview surveys. The theories are applied at the self-introduction and invitation to participate, which is a crucial stage in the potential respondent's decision about participation.
