We also find that mandatory IFRS adopters pay lower bond yield spreads, but not lower loan spreads, after the mandate. These findings are consistent with debt providers responding positively to financial reporting of higher quality and comparability, but only when there is a greater reliance on publicly available financial statements than private communication. Lastly, we document that the observed debt market benefits are concentrated in countries with larger differences between domestic GAAP and IFRS and are present even for EU countries that did not experience concurrent financial reporting enforcement or other institutional reforms.

Based on comment letters in response to International Accounting Standards Board's (IASB) Exposure Draft 2010/8, we investigate firms' lobbying decisions and their long-term lobbying intensity. Using an international sample of publicly listed financial firms, we show that insurance companies and financially constrained IFRS firms are more likely to lobby the IASB. We also examine the long-term lobbying activity in the IFRS 4 replacement process during the years 2007–2010. We find that insurance companies and firms with dispersed ownership lobby more. Our results are stronger for IFRS firms compared to US generally accepted accounting principles users. Overall, we document intense lobbying by financial firms and present results that are largely consistent with economic consequences of anticipated accounting changes being the main driver of firms' lobbying behaviour.

We observe a large sample of 20,505 private firms writing off assets in two separate regimes, one that generates tax savings and one that does not. Firms significantly decrease, but continue to use, write-offs after the adverse change in tax treatment of write-offs. The exogenous tax change should not affect other reporting incentives. This allows us to disentangle the tax-minimisation incentive from other (un-observable) incentives, including debt contracting, dividends and employee relations that contribute to the observed anomalous positive relationship between write-offs and profitability. We show that for private firms (i) obtaining tax savings is important overall (ii) non-tax costs and benefits are probably also important and (iii) earnings informativeness for future cash flows increases after the adverse tax legislation change.","lang":"eng"}],"date_created":"2018-07-12T08:20:29Z","department":[{"_id":"551"},{"_id":"186"},{"_id":"635"}],"type":"journal_article","author":[{"full_name":"Kosi, Urska","last_name":"Kosi","first_name":"Urska","id":"54068"},{"full_name":"Valentincic, Aljosa","first_name":"Aljosa","last_name":"Valentincic"}],"year":"2013","title":"Write-offs and profitability in private firms: Disentangling the impact of tax-minimisation incentives","intvolume":"        22","publication_status":"published","date_updated":"2023-01-24T15:33:44Z","language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"doi":"10.1080/09638180.2012.661938","citation":{"ieee":"U.

Larger companies are more likely to write‐off, but the magnitude decreaseswith size, reflecting increasing political costs due to greater visibility to taxauthorities.

The literature suggests that companies have to put much more emphasis on non-financial measures than they did in the past and that they should implement some kind of integrated performance measurement system. The purpose of our exploratory study was to find out characteristics of performance measurement and management in Slovenian companies. We conducted a survey ‘Performance management in Slovenian companies’ in the spring of 2003. Our sample consists of 108 Slovenian companies. The research results show that Slovenian companies still perceive financial performance measures as more important than non-financial, although they measure both perspectives of their business. Also, we found out that companies measure their performance unsystematically as only 54 per cent of companies that have not changed their performance measurement methods in the last five years use balanced scorecard or some other form of integrated performance measurement system.","lang":"eng"}],"publication":"Accounting and Finance in Transition","citation":{"short":"D.
