Accounting Theory and Empirical Research Research Proposal

Anish Shankar Menon January 20, 2014

The Accounting Standards (AS) are drafted in India by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (ICAI). Most of the ASs are mandatory while some are recommendatory in nature. The three newest standards are AS 30 (Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement and Limited Revisions to AS 2, AS 11 (revised 2003), AS 21, AS 23, AS 26, AS 27, AS 28 and AS 29), AS 31 (Financial Instruments: Presentation) and AS 32 (Financial Instruments: Disclosures, and limited revision to Accounting Standard (AS) 19, Leases). The researcher would like to examine the impact of these disclosures. The impact could be on parameters such as cost of capital, earnings and returns. (For example the Earnings Response Coecient can be used as a proxy of earnings quality.) The scope could be broadened by seeing what changes in the nal accounting statements have been brought about by these disclosures especially in reserves etc.
