This study is based on two-stage least-squares method for 561 unbalanced panel observations of 32 commercial banks in Bangladesh over the period from 2000 to 2018. To analyze the study, it uses macroeconomic and bank-level variables in which probability of IAS adoption, economic growth, and profitability are the main variables. The findings of the study indicate that economic growth has a significant relationship with IAS adoption in the banking industries of Bangladesh, as well as all variables relating to profitability affect IAS adoption excluding return on equity (ROE). SIZE and CAR do not influence IAS adoption from the bank-level variables, liquidity has a significant and negative relationship with IAS adoption and assets growth and total loan and advances (TLAs) have a significant impact on the IAS in banking industries of Bangladesh. The result of the study will be supportive to deliver precious information and unfathomable understanding as regards IAS and factors influencing IAS in banking sector.

Abstract: The financial statements of Brazilian companies have been transformed with the adoption of international accounting standards, and it was expected that this would offer more reliable information for decision-making. This study aims to analyze the influence of the adoption of international accounting standards in predicting corporate insolvency. The sample comprises 94 Brazilian companies listed on BM&FBovespa, divided into two groups: the first group has companies considered insolvent and the second group has solvent companies. For each insolvent company we selected another enterprise of the same segment, based on the nearest value of the total assets. The collected data comprised the period of 31 December 2004 to 31 December 2013. The explanatory variables include 29 financial indicators and the methodological procedure was the statistical method called Discriminant Analysis. The application of statistical tests on separate samples in periods before and after the adoption of IFRS, led to the conclusion that there was a considerable improvement in predicting insolvency after the adoption of international accounting standards, because the average accuracy increased from 73.5% to 82.1%.Keywords: Insolvency forecast.

Nowadays, especially during the current global financial crisis, companies in Hungary are striving desperately to remain competitive and achieve sustainable levels of economic development. The highly competitive environment requires companies to create a clear business strategy, and accounting has to be part of this strategy since it helps individual enterprises to achieve their strategic objectives. International accounting standards are new global methods for business information systems and they are able to harmonize financial regimes both in Hungary and world-wide. The increased globalization of markets, the complexity of commercial trading and the concentration of business in global competition have led to a still greater need for international accounting harmonization. It is expected that a unified, standardized accounting information system will lead to new types of analysis and data – with the possible integration of new indicators used in the business practice of certain countries as an additional benefit.The purpose of this study was to measure the differences between national (Hungarian)l rules and the international standards, evaluating and analyzing their effects on the business environment. The financial data are taken from accounts published on the Budapest Stock Exchange and in the Hungarian Business Information database. The results show that those businesses which have adopted international standards achieved higher and statistically significant positive coefficients than those following local accounting rules. We found that larger firms (those with more leverage, higher market capitalization and substantial foreign sales) were more likely to have adopted international accounting standards.

This paper reports the results of an empirical examination of the difference between earnings based on Chinese GAAP and those based on International Accounting Standards (IAS). Specifically, the study determines how current Chinese accounting standards are different from the IAS, whether these differences are systematically biased toward under- or overstated earnings, and which items from the financial statements contributed most to these differences. The findings suggest that reported accounting earnings based on current Chinese GAAP are significantly different from those based on IAS. On average, the reported earnings determined under the Chinese GAAP are 20–30 percent higher than earnings reported under IAS. After restatement, 15 percent of the B-share companies changed from a reported profit to a reported loss. The findings suggest that the differences between the two sets of earnings are caused by differences in accounting standards and financial rules, opportunistic applications of Chinese GAAP, and unusual market-wide events. An analysis of recently promulgated accounting standards indicates that the difference between the two sets of accounting earnings is likely to be significantly reduced from those reported for 1998 as a result.
