财务报表要素还是财务会计要素——FASB—IASB新财务报表列报方案下的思考

FASB的SFAC No.6定义财务报表要素为构成财务报表的模块或财务报表大的项目分类。定义的关键在于用报告环节的财务报表模块来定义整个财务会计确认、计量、记录、报告各环节遵循的基本要素。这明显破坏了财务会计概念框架中命题的演绎关系。现在,FASB—IASB联合的新财务报表列报方案的出台,使得FASB财务报表要素定义的逻辑问题暴露无遗。另外,FASB的定义既没有提到要素是交易事项的对象要素,更没有提要素是根据信息使用者的需求和交易事项的经济特性对交易事项进行的分类,因而忽略了要素的本质特征。目前,FASB—IASB正在制定联合概念框架。建议在联合概念框架中定义财务会计要素而非财务报表要素,且将要素定义为贯穿财务会计确认、计量、记录、报告全过程（或贯穿财务会计信息生成的全过程）,根据经济特性和信息使用者的需求对交易和事项的基本分类。

PUBLIC CHOICE THEORY AND HOUSE OF LORDS REFORM

Use of Professional Journal Ads to Promote Accounting Services

ABSTRACT

This paper presents an examination of professional journal advertising by professional accounting firms. Advertisements in the three most widely distributed professional accounting journals were analyzed to ascertain the extent of advertising by accounting firms. Research questions included the following: (1) What is the message or purpose of the ads? (2) What size ads are preferred? (3) What is the information content (firm's location, phone number, etc.) of the ads? (4) Which firms advertise the most?

The findings indicate that the most common advertising message concerned selling computer software, followed by employee recruitment. The most common size ads were between a quarter of a page and a page. Information content ranged from phone number and address to professional credentials and specialized services. Advertisements were widely used by both Big Six and non-Big Six accounting firms. The extent of advertising among Big Six firms, however, is highly varied, with Arthur Andersen & Co. generating the most ads. Advertising allows firms the opportunity to reach consumers, provide useful information, and distinguish themselves from other firms.     

The Rainmaker in Today's Professional Service Organizations

ABSTRACT

Professional service firms have relied heavily in the past on a small number of rainmakers-people who have influence and bring business into their firms.

This paper, based on a series of interviews with accounting professionals, identifies the roles and responsibilities for practice development inherent at every stage of the professional accountant's career path. Additionally, the roles and responsibilities of marketing professionals in professional service firms are also considered.

Networks and business development: Convict businesspeople in Australia, 1817–24

This article uses social network analysis to examine accounting records in order to establish and analyse business relationships. It applies this methodology to accounting transactions recorded at Australia's first bank, the Bank of New South Wales (BNSW) in order to establish whether a business network existed among ex-convict businesspeople in Sydney during 1817–24. Uncertainty regarding distance from suppliers and credit facilities, lack of markets and business connections plus the social stigma of ‘convictism’ meant that it was difficult but not impossible for ex-convicts to establish businesses. The network among BNSW shareholders and depositors served the purpose of pooling of resources and information and alleviating uncertainty.
