  • Relevant Research to Accounting Standard Setters and Regulators: Actively Bridging Accounting Practice and Scholarship
    Relevant Research to Accounting Standard Setters and Regulators: Actively Bridging Accounting Practice and Scholarship Susan D. Krische Associate Professor Department of Accountancy College of Business University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign 1206 South Sixth Street, Champaign IL 61820 E-mail: [email protected] Preliminary Comments appreciated November, 2009 I greatly appreciate the generous assistance of the many SEC staff with whom I interacted during my term as Academic Fellow with the Office of the Chief Accountant at the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. In particular, I thank Cathy Cole, Doug Parker, and Nili Shah for insightful conversations and comments related to the development of this paper. I also thank Robert Bloomfield, Donal Byard, Cathy Cole, Susan Curtis, Brooke Elliott, Annie Farrell, Jeff Hales, Roger Martin, Mark Peecher, Paul Polinski, Nili Shah, Steve Smith, Jeff Wilks, and brown-bag discussion participants at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign for helpful comments and suggestions. Relevant Research to Accounting Standard Setters and Regulators: Actively Bridging Accounting Practice and Scholarship Abstract This paper helps bridge accounting practice and scholarship by identifying issues for consideration, and potential actions that could be taken, by individuals within the accounting academic community interested in better communicating the relevance of our academic research to accounting standard setters and regulators. I present an optimistic view that there is ample accounting research of potential interest to standard setters and regulators. However, the rigorous methodological standards to which we hold ourselves as academics make it unlikely that we can identify research ideas based on current regulatory agendas and reasonably expect the research to be sufficiently developed in time to impact the motivating debate.

  • The Narrowing of Academic Accounting: the Diminishing Range of Doctoral Student Interest
    North American Accounting Studies Vol. 1, No. 1 2018 PP 37-54 The Narrowing of Academic Accounting: The Diminishing Range of Doctoral Student Interest Timothy J. Fogarty, Case Western Reserve University Abstract Accounting doctoral education has been the subject of many conversations. Whether it supports the optimal development of the knowledge that we need in this discipline should be debated. For the most part, the content of that which is taught in these programs and what specific scholarly output they facilitate is generally considered to be outside the bounds of academic discussion. This paper questions such a boundary by studying the research interests of three cohorts of doctoral students in the midst of their career preparation. The empirical evidence assembled suggests that doctoral education in accounting has become much more narrow a pursuit during these recent decades. An interpretation of the trends is offered, as well as a forecast of its consequences. Keywords: doctoral programs, doctoral student socialization, accounting doctoral student shortage, accounting faculty Introduction In 2012, the American Accounting Association (AAA), in conjunction with the AICPA, released the Pathways Commission Report. Because this report sought to improve the state of accounting in the US, it included an inquiry into accounting education. As part of that, suggestions for the improvement of doctoral education were made. These include ideas for flexibility in program design and for maintaining relevance to accounting practice (AAA, 2012). Prior to the Pathway report, the circumstances surrounding the production of academic accountants had lapsed into a taken-for-granted status that was mostly immune from criticism. However, this report had very little to say about the content of doctoral education.

The Influence of Law and Economics on Law and Accounting: Two Steps Forward, One Step Back Lawrence A. Cunningham Henry St. George Tucker III Research Professor of Law The George Washington University 1. Theory 1.1. Models and Their Limits Under agency theory, shareholders are treated as principals and corporate managers as agents. The theory, elaborated since the 1970s, notes how interests of principals and agents diverge. The cost of controlling that divergence and the cost of the part that cannot be controlled are called agency costs. (Jensen & Meckling 1976; Triole 2006) Agency costs are limited by various markets, especially capital and corporate control markets. In the law and accounting context, divergence of interests between managers and shareholders can be further reduced by investing in monitoring devices, such as internal controls, board oversight, and independent auditing, and bonding devices, principally transparent accounting and financial disclosure.

  • ACCOUNTING Newsletter | Summer 2021
    The University of Baltimore ACCOUNTING Newsletter | Summer 2021 JOBS. JOBS. JOBS. A Message from the Department Chair When it came time to write my chair’s letter, I felt I should discuss the job climate in the accounting profession. Students come to The University of Baltimore to become accountants, and most importantly to secure a job in their field when they graduate. To that end, the accounting department has been able to remain very attractive to firms seeking to recruit accounting talent for internships and full-time positions. One of the reasons that employers recruit our students is the deep diversity of UBalt’s student population. Employers, realizing their future success depends on their diversity and inclusion initiatives, find UBalt and its students a perfect fit for their recruiting efforts. Our Accounting Advisory Board’s members’ firms and other employers, which participate in our annual Accounting Career Fair, support our student events and recruit on campus, have long realized that strength. Employers also direct their recruiting efforts to UBalt because they recognize the strong curriculum which the accounting faculty has built. The accounting faculty is constantly improving the curriculum to meet the ever-changing needs of employers for our students to have greater technology fluency and data analytics skills for success in today’s world. The faculty is constantly refocusing the curriculum to meet the American Institute of CPAs’ (AICPA) and the National Association of State Boards of Public Accountancy’s (NASBA) CPA Evolution which has proposed changes to sit for the CPA exam and be successful. My six years of service and Dr.
