    Abstract: Accounting is generally viewed as providing an assessment of the value of the business anchored in the economic fundamentals of the business. In particular, this book value appears for the most part to be disconnected from the volatility and exuberance of the stock markets. However, the development of international accounting calls into question the reasonableness of the accounting basis for the valuation of companies. We suggest that the valuation of a company consists above all in projecting the economic model of the company into an uncertain future. From this perspective, the objective of accounting is to produce information to feed this projection and not to provide a direct assessment of the value of the company. In this context, we show that 1) international accounting contributes positively to the relevance of financial information and 2) accounting and finance are linked in a price discovery process which makes any opposition between accounting dimensions artificial and sterile. and financial.
    Abstract: La comptabilité apparait généralement comme fournissant une appréciation de la valeur des entreprises ancrée dans les fondamentaux de la vie économique des entreprises, valeur éloignée des vicissitudes affectant les mesures boursières. Pourtant, le développement d'une comptabilité internationale inquiète : celle-ci ne risque-t-elle pas de remettre en cause ce qui est fréquemment perçu comme un ancrage nécessaire et raisonnable de la valorisation des entreprises ? Nous rappelons dans cette communication que l'évaluation d'une entreprise est d'abord affaire de projection du modèle économique de l'entreprise dans un avenir incertain et que dans cette perspective l'objectif de la comptabilité est moins de fournir directement une évaluation de l'entreprise que de produire une information permettant d'alimenter cette projection. Il apparait dès lors que dans ce cadre 1) la comptabilité internationale contribue à accroitre la pertinence de cette information et que 2) elle entretient un lien dynamique avec la valorisation boursière des entreprises qui rend artificiel et stérile toute opposition entre les dimensions comptables et financières.

    Abstract: The emergence of the society 5.0 era is colored by the rapid world of digitalization which describes almost all areas of life including the accounting profession. This study aims to determine the development of digitization towards society 5.0 and the efforts and challenges made by the accounting profession in facing this era. This study uses a qualitative approach method with online and offline interview techniques to 2 Respondents of the Public Accounting Firm and 2 Respondents of the Tax Consultant Office. The Society 5.0 era requires accountants to understand technology and use it in their work. This is because accountants play an important role in the world of finance and business, which has a positive impact on efficiency and effectiveness. Therefore, accountant learning must be adapted to technological developments to prepare future accountants who can face the challenges of the digital era.

    Abstract: In the space of a decade, a new digital communication standard, XBRL, has profoundly transformed the communication, access and processing of financial and, now, non-financial regulatory information. This article presents the XBRL standard and the key stages in its development, analyzes its contributions to the business world and proposes a discussion on the thorny issue of quality assurance for XBRL reports.

    Abstract: We analyze how tax incentives (bonus depreciation) affect real investment choices of firms by exploiting an exogenous variation in regional tax regulation in former East Germany (Development Area Law, DAL). Our rich administrative panel data for the universe of German manufacturing firms at the establishment level allow us not only to identify an aggregate effect, but also to identify which types of investment (equipment, buildings, land) are are most affected (asset structure). Our baseline results suggest that the DAL increased real gross investment by 16.0% to 19.9%. This aggregate effect is primarily driven by additional investments in buildings (76.6% to 92.3%) and land (108.0% to 121.3%) investments, which have the longest regular depreciation periods in absence of bonus depreciation. The impact on equipment investment is significantly smaller (7.3% to 10.5%). Hence, firms did not only increase their real investment, but also adjusted their asset structure in response to the tax incentive. Addressing firm heterogeneity, we observe a stronger response for firms with more than one business establishment and large firms, thereby providing evidence of tax planning opportunities (multi-establishment firms) and relatively low tax planning costs (large firms) enhancing the effect of bonus depreciation on investment. There is only week evidence of financial reporting costs (accounting incentives) moderating the tax induced effect on firms' real investment choices.

    Abstract: Because of technological progress new challenges to the protection of personal data and the privacy of the individual have occurred. They are mostly related to risks of possible harm to individuals such as financial abuse, fraud, problems in exercising rights, and others. The specificity of the accounting activity requires accounting companies to handle a large set of personal data, the protection of which is among the national and European priorities. However, the purely formal fulfilment of the obligation to protect personal data can lead to some unethical actions by those companies. A clear definition of the types of data that groups of persons collect can have a proactive effect on the prevention of incorrect collection and analysis of personal information. The purpose of the paper is to outline the main activities and relationships that accounting companies have with internal (staff) and external (customers) persons to collect, analyze, and store personal data. The research methods used are the logical, deductive, and comparative methods, as well as the methods of analysis and synthesis.
