According to lifecycle theory, institutions behave financially and economically at different stages of the lifecycle, This means that the financial and economic characteristics of an institution are affected by a stage of the life cycle in which the institution is located and at different stages of its life, such as product lifecycle, resources are consumed, so it is necessary to cost and manage costs. The present article aims to introduce a new approach in this field, has an innovative feature and can be considered in the field of idea generation. The life cycle of institutions is an essential factor in management, because all institutions, like living organs, have a life cycle, and face unique challenges at all stages of the development of the institution. The scientific approach of this research is philosophical and its theoretical foundations are of the type of extension research which was carried out by the method of historical cognition. The method of collecting its scientific resources is a library based on theoretical literature and research background, in the analysis of which the content analysis model was used. The results and findings of the study show. First, a theoretical model called the Financial Marketing Blend in the context of the Enterprise Life Cycle, similar to the Marketing Blend used to understand the product life cycle is essential for life cycle costing and marketing blending issues. Cost management is very important and inevitable for cost management and engineering and secondly, within the framework of the proposed model, appropriate strategies in the costing process can be identified.

Implementation of Direct Subsidy System and Earnings-Based Accrual Management in Political Economy Theory (Empirical Evidence: Tehran Stock Exchange) The present study investigates the effect of establishing a direct subsidy system on accrual-based earnings management within the framework of political economy theory. The statistical population of the present study is Tehran Stock Exchange, which 173 companies were selected as the sample of the study from 2006 to 2019 period. In order to perform statistical analysis in the present study multiple linear regression method with panel-effects method was used. Findings from the analysis of research data show that accruals based earnings management has increased in the period after the establishment of direct subsidy system. Based on the findings of the present study, it can be concluded that subsidizing targeting plan has reduced the profitability of companies and increased accrual-based earnings management through cost pressures on producers.

Experimental Study of the Role of Collateral Value of Assets and Characteristics of Intangible Assets in Companies with Negative Equity Values

Some companies voluntarily disclose additional information in addition to disclosing minimum information in accordance with relevant standards and other laws and regulations. Voluntary disclosure or ethical disclosure is the disclosure that companies make in addition to the mandatory disclosure requirements. Information disclosure is always one of the most important factors in reducing agency problems and information asymmetry. In addition, adopting policies based on transparency and information disclosure is one of the most important factors in the process of optimal and desirable corporate governance. One of the most important benchmarks of corporate transparency in the present era is attention to social issues, sustainable development and sustainability. In this regard, the present study examined the relationship between dimensions of corporate power in voluntary disclosure of non-financial information and corporate sustainability performance. The statistical population of this study included all companies listed in Tehran Stock Exchange from 2008 to 1986 and the sample was selected through systematic elimination from the statistical population. According to the specified conditions, 112 companies were selected as the statistical sample of this study. It is worth noting that the hypotheses were tested by designing multivariate regression models. The results showed that firm strength as a moderating variable enhances firm performance.

One of the requirements for economic growth and development is access to transparent information for all stakeholders. Companies that do not have transparent and acceptable financial reporting are exposed to credit risk and lose shareholder confidence. Transparency and disclosure of information reduces uncertainty, thereby reducing expected returns and thus cost of capital that can help companies to grow, develop and improve continuously. Disclosure of financial and non-financial information is one of the most important tools for organizations to be held accountable. In addition, corporate executives by fully disclosing information, including voluntary disclosure of non-financial information, can reduce information asymmetry, which is one of the key elements of agency theory. In this regard, the present study examined the impact of regulatory mechanisms on voluntary disclosure of non-financial information. For this purpose, the data of 102 companies listed in Tehran Stock Exchange during the ten-year period from 2008 to 2016 were used. The results showed that reinforcing regulatory mechanisms increased the voluntary disclosure of non-financial information.

The main objective of this article is to describe and explain the status of strategic management accounting from a technical-managerial view at different levels of business strategies and based on the various industries. This study has an applied-developmental nature and is in the survey-exploratory research. The research data were collected from semi-structured interviews and questionnaires were designed and distributed among Chief Executive Officers of 75 firms and research data analyzed by mean and variance analysis. Results show the relationship between business strategies and strategic management accounting is strong and positive. Firms use more strategic management accounting practices to implement market-level strategy. In operational-level strategy, techniques including research and development, risk management and target costing, in market-level strategy, techniques including profitability analysis of product portfolio, resource and capability analysis, and competitor analysis, and in corporate-level strategy, techniques including industry foresight analysis, and SWOT have the highest average usage. Also, managers use the value chain analysis at all levels of business strategy. In the importance test, more than ninety percent of the techniques used are important at all levels of the business strategy. Also, the use of some strategic management accounting practices is different in the various industries.

This study According to Theory Sustainable Development investigated the performance level of companies from the perspective of environmental disclosure and social responsibility by analyzing the data of 80 companies listed in Tehran Stock Exchange during (2013-2018). 207 Indicators were identified and then in the form of of a questionnaire were surveyed for the two variables of social responsibility and environmental disclosure based on their dimensions (economic, social and environmental for social responsibility and material inventory, energy consumption, water, environmental diversity, emissions, wastewater and waste, products and services, Compliance, Overall, Suppliers of Raw Materials and Environmental Complaints for Environmental Disclosure). The opinions of relevant experts were used to confirm these indicators. Confirmatory factor analysis was used to achieve the final indices, and 24 indices were eliminated and 183 indices were extracted from corporate financial statements. Required data were then collected by referring to stock exchange information, Codal site information and board reports and then analyzed by fuzzy modeling using Expert choice software. The results showed that only 23% of the surveyed companies had higher than average performance on social responsibility and environmental disclosure, among them, Iran Khodro has achieved the highest performance in the automotive industry and in the manufacture of automotive pieces.

In the comprehensive profit management model, the primary purpose of financial accounting is to provide useful information for investors to predict the performance of the economic unit. Understanding earnings management is important for users of financial statements because it assesses current economic performance, predicts future profitability, and determines company value. Critical thinking in accounting can be expressed in the emergence of qualitative features of accounting information such as impartiality, objectivity, and honest expression that exist within the conceptual framework of financial reporting in most countries. Finally, critical thinking is the rational reasoning of what people believe and what they do.

The main purpose of this article is to predict fraudulent financial statements using the CRISP approach. The preliminary data analyzed in this study are from the statistical sample of 164 companies admitted to Tehran Stock Exchange during the period of 2015-2018, which were selected by systematic elimination sampling. The independent variables affecting fraud in this study included 40 financial and non-financial variables that were selected based on antecedent research. Finally, data on variables collected by the library method, based on Crisp approach, to determine the weight and specificity of important variables to the Shannon entropy model and to predict cheating in the top four techniques among intelligence techniques. These techniques include 2 decision trees, neural networks, support vector machines, and the adiabatic hybrid backup vector machine. Using the Shannon entropy out of the 40 research variables, the top 27 variables were identified based on the information profit attribute, which identified the variable cumulative earnings-to-sales ratio as the most important variable in predicting financial statement fraud. After applying the Crisp approach, the results showed that all techniques were capable of detecting financial statements at a relatively high level, and the proposed technique of Adaptive Backup Vector Machine in the training phase with an accuracy rate of 81. 69% had higher accuracy and evaluation ability than the other techniques. And this technique correctly identified 82% of fraudulent and non-fraudulent financial statements in the year 2018.

Recent advances in positive psychology have been beneficial to organizations, managers, and employees, and have created a new, different, and practical approach to developing individual, group, and organizational capacities. On the other hand, it is essential for auditors to increase their judgment skills. The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of positive thinking on the professional judgment of auditors. According to the purpose, the present study is of applied type and in terms of research implementation method, it is a description of correlation type and the data measurement and collection tool has made a researcher-made questionnaire. The statistical population consisted of 91 experts in the community of official accountants and were selected using convenience sampling method. Smart-PLS software was used to analyze the hypotheses. The results showed that individual factors affect the positive thinking of auditors and positive thinking of auditors on professional factors and professional factors on the progress and development of auditors. The results also show that positive

Money laundering is an illegal activity in which the proceeds of wrongdoing enter the global economy and gain legal legitimacy. The effects of money laundering on the economy can be mitigated by planning programs and solutions. This phenomenon causes serious damage to a country's economy in the long run, and the existence of money laundering in a country's economy indicates a structural weakness in that country's economy. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to predict the causal relationship between the structures of the board and the audit unit (status of the audit unit, risk of fraud detection, auditor ability and motivation and the rules governing financial reporting) and money laundering risk of organizations. The statistical population of this study includes company managers, auditors and university faculty members (experts in the field of capital market, banking and auditing) and a standard questionnaire was used to collect data. After performing the reliability and validity tests of the sample data, the relevant analyzes were performed based on the structural equation modeling approach. The results showed that the money laundering risk of organizations is affected by the structures of the board and the audit unit (the status of the audit unit and the risk of fraud detection).

Objective This effective research has been done in focusing the auditing market based on accounting decision making style. Method The hypothesis research was experimentally analyzed by structural equivalence modeling method using Smart PLS software Findings The results showed that the audit market plays an important role in maintaining the transparency and proper functioning of capital markets. The structure of the market creates a diverse tendency to focus on the auditing market that also reflects the extent to which companies in the market have been proven to be affected. The audit firm rating is another factor in the focus of the auditing market that provides the least effective factor in this market to your account and makes the market suitable if you are ranked to the right of the firm, but if you want to have this feature, because the right quality for your effectiveness is the flow of real information help. Conclusion The market shares of the auditing firm, which is related to the employers in various ways and acts as a good level in the accounting level of your business characteristics and capacity, if there is another factor that increase the level of control over the control market.

In accounting systems, accrual accounting items are considered as an essential element in achieving the main objectives of financial reporting. However, many researchers believe that there is not enough understanding of the process of emerging accruals. The aim of this study is to understand whether cash-flow changes, serial correlation in cash-flow changes, and operating cash cycle, which capture the timing and matching properties of cash flows add any incremental explanatory power to various accrual models, this issue has been neglected in all models of accruals. In order to answer to the research question by adding timing and matching properties of cash flows as serial correlation indicators to the models for predicting accruals such as: The Jones (1991) model, the McNichols (2002) model that combines the Jones (1991) model with the Ball and Shivakumar (2006) model that considers the asymmetric loss recognition in accruals. In this regard, 121 companies listed on the Tehran Stock Exchange were selected and tested between 1388 and 1397(Iranian calendar). The test results showed that accruals and cash flow changes have a negative and significant relationship, and when the serial correlation of cash flow changes are more negative, this inverse relationship increases. The research results also confirm the existence of a positive relationship between accrual items with revenue changes and the operational cash cycle. The above findings indicate that adding timing and matching properties of cash flows to the Jones (1991), McNichols (2002) and Wing and Shivakomar (2006) models can improves the explanatory power of these models.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of moral decision making, disclosure and profile of Eysenck personality on the moral intensity perceived by public sector accountants. This research is a quantitative research and its data collection is through survey. The statistical population of the research consists of accounting staff of Sari public sector in2019. For this purpose, 250 questionnaires were sent to public sector accountants to examine the impact of ethical decision-making factors, disclosure, extraversion and neuroticism. The results of testing the hypotheses using the structural equation model show the positive and significant effect of extraversion as well as the negative and non-semantic effect of moral decision, disclosure and neuroticism on perceived moral intensity. The results of prioritizing these factors also indicate that the variables of extraversion and neuroticism have the greatest impact on perceived moral intensity. Therefore, in order to increase accountants' perception of moral severity, it is important to pay attention to strategies such as implementing ethical training programs and personality psychology training programs in universities and organizations can have a positive effect on moral severity. It is also necessary for individuals and society to be exposed to disclosure.
