Accounting manipulations related to financial assets

100%

Kutera M.

nr vol. 23 no. 3

23-29

The main purpose of this paper is to present the types and consequences of accounting manipulations concerning financial assets, mainly in the context of their impact on the financial results presented by enterprises. The research methodology is based on a critical analysis of the current legal solutions and case studies. Three different entities audited by the author have been selected to illustrate the most frequently used techniques of accounting manipulations. These relate to the pricing and presentation of blocks of shares listed on the stock exchange as well as shares not traded on a regulated market in the financial statements. The research results unambiguously confirm that the current wording of the provisions of the accounting balance sheet law in this regard leave a rather large degree of freedom in their interpretation. Qualified accountants skilfully use these legal gaps to a significant extent to paint a better picture of the enterprise.

Purpose: The main purpose of the article is to identify and characterize the key audit matters (KAMs) indicated during an audit of the financial statements of the largest companies in the Polish market. Methodology/approach: We analyzed the KAMs presented in the verification of the consolidated financial statements of the 30 largest companies listed on the main market of the Warsaw Stock Exchange for 2014–2022. The total sample was 270 auditors’ reports. The basis of the methodology was empirical research; deductive and inductive reasoning were used to formulate the results. Findings: The number of KAMs reported in individual years did not fluctuate significantly, and the average number disclosed for one audit coincides with general global trends. The auditors reported the riskiest areas were for entities from the insurance sector, media and telecommunications, and the fuel industry. The most important KAMs include contingent liabilities, revenue, long-term assets, and goodwill. Research limitations/implications: The main constraint is the limited research sample relating only to the audit of the financial statements of WIG30 companies. However, it covers the largest entities for which auditors indicated the most KAMs and prepared their most extensive descriptions. Originality/value: The article concerns a relatively new research area for which there are few studies on the Polish market, which additionally have a narrow substantive scope. This paper comprehensively characterizes KAMs reported by auditors in the long term.
