There are many studies confirming the theory according to which the decisions of the users of the accounting information depend on the quality of this very information, namely its intrinsic quality, as well as its impact through publication. We undertake to test the extent to which the intrinsic quality of the accounting information is assured by the internal means of obtaining the information. The analysis is performed on the Romanian market and takes into account the qualitative characteristics of the accounting information contained within the IASB conceptual framework. We have opted for the data analysis using the technique of the study case and for methods of economic analysis applicable in accounting. After having checked the relevance of the conceptual framework, we have identified the prerequisites, the criteria and, respectively, the measurable quality parameters. We have monitored the influence of these explanatory variables in respect of the topic analysed through the study case, and we have considered the level of quality assurance. The contribution of the study consists of new explicit sub-criteria for the assurance and control of the accounting information, which enrich the accounting theory, and, of an instrument for assessing the quality of the information to be offered to the users, namely managers, but also consultants, who can use it in practice and base their analyses and decisions on it.Accounting information, quality, quantification, managers, consultants
Legitimacy to develop fair value measurement standards: The Case of the IVSC Discussion Paper – Determination of fair value of intangible assets for IFRS reporting purposes
This research studies, through a content analysis of the comment letters to the IVSC project on fair value determination of intangible assets, the legitimacy of this professional body, or of the accounting associations, to develop measurement standards specific to this accounting concept. At present, with the exception of FAS 157, no professional standard offers clear technical solutions for fair value determination for financial reporting purposes. We have come to the conclusion that, among respondents, accountants are more reserved than valuators in what regards the IVSC regulating of the fair value measurement. The Anglo-Saxon respondents are more open to accept the IVSC DP as compared to respondents from other countries, hence the IVSC legitimacy to develop fair value measurement standards. Generally, we consider that accounting bodies, rather than valuation bodies, should have legitimacy to develop fair value measurement standards.fair value, professional standards, valuation techniques, guidance, project acceptation, value hierarchy
Convergence or Divergence between National and International View on Tangible Assets
A controversial subject at the present time is the issue of harmonization of accounting both at European level and globally. Although much has been made in bringing the accounting at a uniform level, this request it has not reached yet. A comparative study between the accounting treatment of fixed assets amounted to Romanian national regulations and in accordance with international rules, will bring out the best in show the similarities and differences between the regulations. The rules used for comparison will be OMFP 3055/2009, International Accounting Standard 16 – Tangible Assets and Generally Accepted Accounting Principles 360

EMPIRIJSKA STUDIJA IMPLIKACIJA KVALITATIVNIH FAKTORA U DONOŠENJU ODLUKA VEZANIH ZA RAZINU MATERIJALNOSTI. SLUČAJ RUMUNJSKE
The paper aims to present the importance of qualitative
factors in determining the materiality level in an
audit mission. According to the literature a quantitative
approach of materiality is insufficient for appropriate
decisions, therefore it is required a more serious
treatment of this issue. Data collected in the research
were processed using the Ordered Logit Model, and
the results showed that there is a significant correlation
between the materiality level and the sectors in
which the audited companies operate, the auditor’s
experience in the field and the longevity of the relationship
with the client. There is no any correlation
between the materiality level and the needs of the users
of financial statements or the management objectives.Rad želi predstaviti važnost kvalitativnih faktora u određivanju razine materijalnosti u postupku
revizije. Literatura nam govori da kvantitativni pristup materijalnosti nije dovoljan za prikladne
odluke, te je stoga potreban ozbiljniji pristup ovoj temi. Podaci sakupljeni u istraživanju obrađeni
su pomoću Order Logit Modela a rezultati su pokazali da postoji značajna korelacija između
razine materijalnosti i sektora u kojima djeluju revidirane tvrtke, revizorovo iskustvo na polju
dugovječnosti odnosa s klijentom. Ne postoji nikakva korelacija između razine materijalnosti i
potreba korisnika financijskih izvještaja ili ciljeva menadžmenta

The Impact of Accrual Accounting on the Public Sector Management. An Exploratory Study for Romania
<p>This research is intended to supplement comparative national studies, which represent a challenge to accounting history for the last decades, explaining the Romanian public accounting practices in their local and time-specific context, taking into question the case of the entities owned by the government. In essence, the findings show the materialization of accrual accounting benefits for Romania as an emerging economy in terms of all independent variables used in the study: fixed assets, liabilities, revenues and costs. The article also analyzes the gradual evolution of finding the advantages of the Romanian accounting system’s transition from a cash basis to an accrual basis in the two analyzed stages, the transition and postreform periods. It proves thus the correlation between the pace of regulatory changes and their application in practice, indirectly confirming the orientation of the Romanian standard-setters towards IPSAS and accrual accounting. Moreover, this research is an argument for the importance of accounting and of the economic analysis, which the study can support through proper financial reporting.</p
