Divulgação da informação contábil sobre depreciação: o antes e o depois da adoção das IFRS / Disclosure of the accounting information about depreciation: before and after the adoption of the IFRS

Samantha Valentim Telles 04 February 2014 (has links)
Dada sua origem no code law, a Contabilidade brasileira era baseada em regras e muito influenciada pelas normas fiscais. Com a adoção das IFRS, esperava-se que essa Contabilidade se aproximasse mais da essência econômica. Contudo, é possível encontrar estudos que apontam para o fato de existirem evidências da permanência da utilização de certos aspectos da Contabilidade anterior. Ao mesmo tempo, com a adoção das normas internacionais, a depreciação acabou ganhando uma importância maior devido ao fato de que agora as empresas têm maior liberdade para definir seus valores. Dessa forma, o principal objetivo deste estudo foi analisar a evolução da apresentação, nas demonstrações financeiras anuais, das informações referentes à depreciação dos ativos imobilizados no Brasil. Para isso, por meio de Análise de Conteúdo, foram analisadas as demonstrações financeiras padronizadas das maiores companhias abertas listadas na BM&FBOVESPA, que possuíam ativos imobilizados e/ou despesas de depreciação de 2006 a 2012. A amostra final contou com 74 empresas - ou seja, 518 observações - e o período foi divido em três: antes, durante e depois da adoção das IFRS. Os resultados mostraram que o nível de utilização das taxas fiscais era, de maneira geral, muito maior antes da adoção das novas normas. Por outro lado, ainda que existisse um ambiente mais propício para utilização dessas taxas, antes da adoção algumas empresas já utilizavam outras taxas nesse período. Verificou-se que, após a adoção, passou-se a utilizar com mais frequência o método das taxas médias e que as empresas que utilizaram intervalos de taxas para alguns ativos foram sempre as mesmas. Ademais, com o passar dos anos, as taxas de depreciação quase não se alteraram em todos os grupos de ativos imobilizados analisados. Mas, após a adoção das normas internacionais e em especial para o exercício de 2010, as empresas aumentaram o nível de revisão. Contudo, em 2011 e 2012 houve uma nova queda desse nível para todos os imobilizados estudados. Algumas empresas, 2,51% da amostra estudada, não apresentaram a metodologia de cálculo antes, durante e depois da adoção das normas internacionais. Da mesma forma, as informações sobre depreciação acumulada e despesa de depreciação por classe de imobilizado não foram apresentadas por algumas empresas (14,48% e 57,92%, respectivamente), mesmo com a exigência do CPC 27. E por fim, constatou-se que, antes das IFRS, a depreciação acumulada era apresentada no cálculo do valor líquido do imobilizado; e após, passou a ser apresentada na composição do saldo do mesmo, junto à depreciação do período. Conclui-se que as Notas Explicativas sofreram mudanças consideráveis, principalmente após a adoção das IFRS, mas ainda permanecem muitos resquícios da cultura anterior, desde a utilização das taxas fiscais, passando pelo baixo nível de revisão das taxas, até a não apresentação de informações obrigatórias sobre depreciação. Dessa forma, afirma-se que muitas empresas ainda precisam se adequar completamente às novas normas no que tange depreciação, disponibilizando mais informações para os usuários, pois somente assim eles poderão utilizá-las para suas tomadas de decisão sobre investimento. / Given its origins in the code law, the Brazilian Accounting was rules-based and much influenced by tax rules. With the adoption of the IFRS, it was expected that the Accounting would get closer to its economic essence. However, it is possible to find studies that point to the existence of evidences of the permanence of the use of certain aspects of the previous Accounting. At the same time, with the adoption of the international rules, depreciation has gotten a greater importance given the fact that nowadays the companies have greater freedom to define its values. Therefore, the main goal of this study was to analyze the evolution of the presentation, in the annual financial statements, of the information about the depreciation of property, plant and equipment in Brazil. To do so, it was analyzed through Content Analysis the standard financial statements of the biggest public companies listed in BM&FBOVESPA that had property, plant or equipment and/or depreciation expenses from 2006 to 2012. The final sample had 74 companies - i.e., 518 observations - and the period was divided in three: before, during and after the adoption of the IFRS. The results have shown that the tax rates levels of use were, in general, bigger before the adoption of the new rules. On the other hand, even though the environment before the adoption was more favorable to the use of these tax rates, some companies already used other rates in this period. It was verified that after the adoption, the average rates began to be used and the companies that used rates intervals to some assets were always the same ones. Thus, over the years, the depreciation rates almost did not change in all the analyzed assets groups. But, after the adoption and especially in 2010, the companies have increased this level of revision. However, in 2011 and 2012 there was a new decrease in this level to every analyzed asset. Some companies, 2.51% of the studied sample, did not present the calculation method before, during and after the adoption of the international rules. Similarly, some companies did not present the information about accumulated depreciation and depreciation expenses by class of property, plants and equipment (14.48% and 57.92%, respectively), even with the requirement of the CPC 27. Finally, before the IFRS, the accumulated depreciation was presented in the calculus of the net value of property, plants and equipment; and after, it began to be presented inside the reconciliation of the carrying amount, along with the depreciation. It is possible to conclude that the Notes have suffered considerable changes, especially after the adoption of the IFRS, but residues of the previous culture remain, since the use of tax rates, through the low level of rates revision, until the non-presentation of mandatory information. Therefore, it is possible to assert that many companies still have to completely adequate themselves to the new rules regarding to depreciation, by providing more information to the users, because only after that they will be capable of using it for their investment decision making.

Made available in DSpace on 2016-03-15T19:32:55Z (GMT). No. of bitstreams: 1 Renata de Souza Ferreira Medinaprot.pdf: 1481960 bytes, checksum: 9444f6cc48dc8f36e4df5d39111f6ba2 (MD5) Previous issue date: 2015-07-31 / The general objective of this study is to identify what factors lead medium-sized multinational companies to adopt IFRS Full or IFRS SME. In order to do so, the Institutional Theory was applied as research basis since it provides theoretical ground for the identification of the reason why companies make such a choice. This work also sought to identify which institutional changing mechanisms, whether coercive, mimetic and/or normative, are present when companies look for legitimacy in the process of adopting norms. The sample presented here comprises eight professionals responsible for decision making in accounting processes working for the referred companies, selected according to an availability criteria. This researched was carried out applying semi-structured interviews, which allow a deeper investigation of the issue. Collected material has been analyzed through Bardin's Technical Analysis of Content (2007). From the results, it was possible to identify that the companies have the IFRS Full as their first choice. It was also found that such decision is bound to the technical skill of the professional in charge, along with the growing perspective for the company within a short term. The professionals working in such companies do not analyze the available accounting choices in both cases, demonstrating that there is no relationship between the choice made and the evaluation of the model that best suits operations and results. Little prioritization/relevance by companies in adopting norms, as well as little interference by third parties and little interference by the mother company were found as inhibiting factors. As for the encouraging factor, the study found that the capacity of the professional in charge responds for the adoption of norms, which takes place as a result of normative and mimetic pressure when companies search for legitimacy. In addition, we submitted the results of this research to the Accounting Council (CRC SP) and the Big Four consulting firm, in order to have them validated and deepened, since those two have been often mentioned by the professionals. Such consulting raise aspects mostly approached by the professionals, i.e. the need for a more effective professional class representation and a support from auditing firms with the board of directors of the companies studied, in order to propel the processes of adopting norms and also to generate a sense of responsibility by the companies in such processes, besides holding the accounting professionals responsible. / O objetivo geral deste trabalho é identificar fatores que direcionam as empresas multinacionais de médio porte à adoção das IFRS Full ou da IFRS SME. Para isso, baseou-se, na Teoria Institucional, a qual fornece subsídios teóricos para identificar o porquê às empresas fazem essa escolha. Buscou identificar, ainda, sob qual mecanismo de mudança institucional as empresas buscam legitimação no processo de adoção das normas internacionais, sejam eles, coercitivo, mimético e/ou normativo. A amostra desta pesquisa foi composta por oito profissionais responsáveis pela tomada de decisão dos processos contábeis dessas empresas, os quais foram selecionados pelo critério de acessibilidade. Para realização desta pesquisa foram efetuadas entrevistas semiestruturadas, as quais permitem maior profundidade na investigação do problema. Os materiais coletados foram analisados utilizando a técnica de análise de conteúdo de Bardin (2007). Por meio dos resultados obtidos, foi possível identificar que as empresas, foco deste estudo, escolhem como first option, a adoção das IFRS Full. Pôde-se perceber que esta decisão está vinculada a capacitação técnica do profissional, paralelamente à perspectiva de crescimento dessas empresas a um período de curto a médio prazo. Verificou-se que os profissionais, que atuam nessas empresas, não efetuam análises das escolhas contábeis disponíveis nos dois modelos, demonstrando não haver relação entre escolha e avaliação do modelo que melhor se adeque as operações e aos resultados. Como fatores inibidores, identificou-se, a baixa priorização/importância à adoção pelas companhias, a baixa interferência de terceiros e a baixa interferência da matriz. Como fator indutor à adoção das normas internacionais, somente foi identificado, à capacitação profissional, a qual, por meio da pressão normativa e mimética, pôde ser percebida a busca pela legitimação. Ainda, buscando validar e aprofundar os resultados dessa pesquisa buscou-se junto ao órgão de classe, CRC SP, e junto as empresas de auditoria Big Four, à avalição dos resultados obtidos, uma vez que foram frequentemente citados pelos profissionais. Para esta avaliação foram apresentados os principais pontos levantados pelos profissionais, como, à necessidade de se ter um órgão de classe mais atuante e a necessidade de apoio das empresas de auditoria junto ao corpo diretivo dessas companhias, a fim de impulsionar o processo de adoção e também gerar responsabilização às empresas nesse processo, além da responsabilização dos profissionais.

Nedskrivning av goodwill : hur påverkas goodwillnedskrivning av de individuella och ekonomiska faktorerna samt hur nivån på styrelsekontroll betingar dessa relationer?

El-Chami, Mustafa, Svardh, Oscar January 2017 (has links)
Syftet med denna studie är att förklara hur nedskrivning av goodwill påverkas utifrån de individuella och ekonomiska faktorerna samt hur nivån på styrelsekontroll påverkar dessa faktorers utfall. Studien kommer att utgå utifrån Agentteorin och Positiv redovisningsteori. Studiens hypoteser formas med hänsyn till de individuella och ekonomiska faktorerna samt styrelsekontroll. Studien är av en kvantitativ metod med en deduktiv ansats. Insamling av data till berörda företag har skett med hjälp av företagets årsredovisningar och sedan har dessa sammanställts. Studiens analys har tillämpats med hjälp av statistikprogrammet SPSS. Statistiska tabeller som Pearsons bivariata korrelationstest och logistisk regressionsmodell har tillämpats för att hitta samband mellan beroende, oberoende samt modererande variablerna. Slutsatsen visar att en variabel är signifikant. Variabeln utbildning uppnår signifikans i förhållande till nedskrivning av goodwill. Slutsatser kring denna variabel kommer tas, dock kan det inte tas kring övriga variabler då de inte är signifikanta.

Påverkas goodwill och vinst av intressenterna? : En kvantitativ studie om vinst är en faktor som intressenterna kan påverka i samband med nedskrivning av goodwill / Is goodwill and profit affected by stakeholders? : A quantitative study about whether or not profit is a factor that stakeholders can affect when it comes to goodwill impairment

Karlsson, Ida, Mellgren, Erik January 2017 (has links)
Goodwillandelen i rörelseförvärv har under den senaste tiden blivit högre med ett genomsnitt på 51% under 2014 för alla gjorda förvärv enligt Gauffin et al., (2016, s. 1). Gauffin et al. menar vidare att dessa 51% representeras av en summa på cirka 92 miljarder kronor. Detta ger att företagen måste ta beslut angående nedskrivning av goodwill utefter de beräkningar som ges av de internationella redovisningsreglerna (IFRS) som noterade bolag inom EU måste utgå ifrån (Sundgren, et. al. 2013, s. 11). En nedskrivning av goodwill innebär en direkt kostnad för företaget, vilket medför en mindre vinst. Ämnen som studien har undersökt när det kommer till nedskrivning av goodwill är påverkan från intressenter och beslut om vinst.Problembakgrunden mynnade ut i följande problemformulering ”Är vinsten en faktor som styr intressenternas påverkan på företagens beslut vid nedskrivning av goodwill?”. Studiens syfte är att studera samband mellan en värdeminskning av goodwill och relevanta företagsekonomiska nyckeltal. Detta för att sedan analysera resultatet och göra en utvärdering kring huruvida intressenterna påverkar värdeminskningen av goodwill och företagens resultat. Detta för att sedan använda detta som en grund till praktiska rekommendationer.För att besvara problemformuleringen har en kvantitativ metod använts genom att studera redovisningsinformation från olika svenska börsnoterade företag. Datainsamlingen har skett genom databaserna Retriever Business, Börsdata samt företagens egna årsredovisningar för åren 2007 till 2015. Utifrån denna information har urval skett utifrån framtagna urvalskriterier som resulterade i 82 bolag och totalt 195 nedskrivningar under perioden. Databearbetningen har skett i programmet Minitab där det tagits fram korrelationstest, beskrivande statistik samt scatterplots med regressionslinje som visar korrelationen grafiskt.Studiens resultat ger inte statistiskt stöd för att intressenterna skulle påverka besluten angående goodwillnedskrivning och vinst. Däremot kunde tendenser urskiljas angående företagens medvetenhet angående hur goodwillnedskrivningar kan tolkas av intressenterna. Det kan konstateras att det inte finns något statistiskt signifikant samband mellan höga vinster och högre nedskrivningsandel av goodwill. Det fanns inte heller något statistiskt signifikant samband som bekräftade att företag vill hålla nere kostnaderna för att undvika att sänka sin vinst, däremot visade resultatet tendenser som kan tolkas som att det är på detta sätt. Utifrån resultatet ges rekommendationerna att tillvägagångssättet för beräkningarna av nedskrivning av goodwill bör tydliggöras. Detta för att företagen ska känna sig tryggare när det kommer till att göra denna värdering. Utöver detta rekommenderas att reglerna i IFRS angående återföring av goodwill bör lättas upp.

IFRS 13 och dess upplysningskrav : En studie om regelefterlevnad på Nasdaq Helsinki och Nasdaq Stockholm

Holm, Martin, Lantz, Max January 2017 (has links)
Studien undersöker till vilken grad företag som är noterade på Nasdaq Helsinki och Nasdaq Stockholm inom bank-, fastighets- och skogsbranschen följer upplysningskraven för tillgångar värderade till verkligt värde enligt IFRS 13. Flera oberoende variabler kontrolleras om de har någon påverkan på regelefterlevnaden. Variablerna som undersöks är skuldsättning, företagsstorlek, bransch, kontrollorgan samt lärande. Data insamlas genom bearbetning av företagens årsredovisningar. Efterlevnaden av upplysningskraven sammanställs i ett index som visar på en total regelefterlevnad på 93,32%. Av de oberoende variablerna är det endast bransch som har en signifikant påverkan på regelefterlevnaden. Det är banksektorn som visar sig ha ett negativt samband med efterlevnaden av upplysningskraven i IFRS 13. Storlek visar en indikation på ett positivt samband medan övriga variabler inte visar på något samband alls.

Essays on the U.S. GAAP-IFRS Convergence Project, the Nature of Accounting Standards, and Financial Reporting Quality

Sawani, Assma M. 22 June 2016 (has links)
In this dissertation, I examine the changes to the nature of the accounting paradigms of U.S. GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) over the course of the U.S. GAAP and IFRS convergence project. I further examine whether the changes to the nature of IFRS following convergence impacts the financial reporting quality. The motivation for this study is to provide an initial review of the progress of the convergence process between U.S. GAAP and IFRS that aims to converge both sets of standards towards more principles-based paradigms. The ultimate goal of the convergence process was the development of globally recognized high quality financial reporting standards (FASB, 2002) and the development of principles-based accounting standards was identified as an essential component of such a goal. Extant literature and professional practice agree that U.S. GAAP is more rules-based whereas IFRS is more principles-based. Thus, both the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) and the U.S. Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) agreed that the convergence process would be an ideal vehicle to converge both sets of standards towards more principles-based paradigm. I document that over the course of the convergence project, the underlying accounting paradigm of U.S. GAAP has remained consistent whereas the accounting paradigm of IFRS has become more rules-based. Amendments to existing International Standards and newer standards added over the course of the convergence have moved IFRS towards a more rules-based nature which was not the intended outcome of the convergence process. I further examine if the changes in rules vs. principles-based nature of IFRS has impacted the accounting quality. Using a firm level instrument developed in Folsom et al. (2016) that measures the extent to which firms rely on principles-vs –rules-based accounting, standards I find a relation between firm reliance on principles-based standards and earnings persistence. I also find an association between firm reliance on principles-based standards and earnings ability to predict future cash flows as well as concurrent returns. More, importantly the results of my study provide initial evidence that these associations are significantly manifested in the post-convergence period.
