مصطفى Abood, منى Hamad

Pages: 79-100

PDF Full Text
Abstract

The research aims to explain the measurement and accounting disclosure of lease contracts in accordance with the IFRS 16 standard and its impact on the informational content of the financial statements. To achieve the research objective, the researcher applied the IFRS 16 standard in Gulf Bank because it did not apply the IFRS 16 standard during the period of application of the standard in 2019, and the researcher prepared The financial statements were prepared in accordance with the requirements of the standard before and after application, and in a retrospective manner, according to what the standard allowed, with other variables held constant. The researcher provided a detailed analysis of the impact of applying IFRS 16 on the informational content of the financial statements by comparing the results before and after application, as well as the impact of that application on Financial ratios.

The researcher reached a set of conclusions, the most important of which are the following:

- The application of the IFRS 16 standard leads to the recognition of the right to use the asset among non-current assets, which leads to an increase in assets with a decrease in prepaid expenses, as a result of the amendments in order to apply the standard represented by reversing the prepaid expenses before application. In addition, recognizing lease obligations as non-current liabilities leads to an increase in total liabilities.

The application of IFRS 16 affects the informational content of the statement of changes in equity, especially when applied using the modified retrospective method, as a decrease in retained earnings resulting from an increase in the volume of expenses due to an increase in debit interest expenses and depreciation expenses leads, therefore, to a decrease in retained earnings.

The research concluded with a number of recommendations, the most important of which are:

- The need for lease contracts to be clearer by stating the important paragraphs that have an impact on the process of accounting treatments related to the application of IFRS 16, which are (duration, payments, purchase option, the extent of the lessee’s control over the asset subject to the lease, and so on).

- The necessity of qualifying staff working in accounting departments in the banking sector, given that it is obligated to apply international standards and other sectors through training on conducting accounting treatments for lease contracts in accordance with the IFRS16 standard, as treatments that are radically different from what used to be the treatment of lease contracts according to local accounting systems.

Abstract

Information from financial reports is the basis upon which users of financial information make various decisions accounting measurement based on historical cost is objective and reliable but not appropriate, as it reflects past events and does not provide future information, hence the global trend of replacing historical cost with fair value, since the information generated is relevant and reflects the unit's true financial position. The research therefore sought to illustrate the impact of fair value adoption on the quality of financial reporting. The importance of research stems from the importance of quality financial reporting because of its significant influence on decision makers.Given the international trend to replace the historical cost basis with fair value accounting measurement, it was important to examine the ability of fair value financial reporting to provide users of financial reporting with financial information and indicators that are appropriate and useful for good economic decision-making and also to identify underlying causes Behind the trend of preparers of International Accounting Standards (IAS) and International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) to use fair value in accounting measurement. To test the validity of the research hypothesis, the impact of using fair value on the quality of financial reporting was measured by measuring the adequacy of financial reporting at Baghdad commercial bank . The researchers came to several conclusions, the main one being that there is an impact of using fair value on bank activities after its application. They recommended that efforts be made to apply fair value across a wider range of financial assets to include all their assets and liabilities properly according to the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), as the impact may become clearer.

Zainab Khalid, Eatessam Al-Shakrchy

Pages: 184-206

PDF Full Text
Abstract

Capital structure is considered a fundamental topic in the field of financial management due to its vital role in supporting corporate financial decisions and its direct impact on financial performance and returns. This study aims to analyze the role of capital structure indicators on abnormal stock returns, with a specific focus on industrial companies listed on the Iraq Stock Exchange, as these returns serve as important indicators of market efficiency and the influence of financial decisions.

The study addresses the relationship between the components of capital structures such as debt and equity—and deviations in stock returns from expected values. These deviations may reflect unexpected opportunities or additional risks borne by investors. The research problem was formulated through inquiries into the impact of the financing mix used by companies on abnormal returns, as well as the extent to which these returns are affected by financial risk and the environmental challenges faced by the Iraqi market.

The significance of this study lies in its attempt to explain how changes in financial leverage influence abnormal returns. It also provides practical indicators that enhance the efficient use of financial resources and help investors gain a better understanding of how to evaluate their returns and expectations based on the components of capital structure. Furthermore, the study seeks to offer insights and recommendations that support financial decision-makers in choosing a balanced capital structure that contributes to growth and risk reduction. The study adopts an analytical approach that integrates theoretical foundations with empirical measurement of financial leverage indicators and abnormal returns, by analyzing data from a sample of listed industrial companies.

Analysis and measurement of the role of public debt in financing Iraq's sustainable development for the period 1990-2022

Amenah Abdullah, Mongi Arfaoui

Pages: 118-144

PDF Full Text
Abstract

Given the growing public debt burden and the volatility of global oil prices — the primary source of budget revenues — this study examines the economic impact of public debt on sustainable development in Iraq from 1990 to 2022. Using modern econometric models and quarterly time series data, the research analyzes the relationship between domestic and external public debt, economic growth, and sustainable development.

The study aims to identify the short- and long-term effects of public debt on growth and sustainability and clarify how oil price volatility affects this relationship. The results indicate that domestic debt has a less negative impact than external debt. While external debt supports expenditures in the short term, it increases long-term risks due to repayment obligations. The results also indicate weak links between high debt and sustainable development outcomes, reflecting the inefficient use of borrowed resources. Heavy reliance on oil revenues exacerbates the economy's vulnerability to external shocks. The study concluded with a set of recommendations: adopt wise debt management strategies; direct borrowing toward productive and developmental sectors; enhance transparency and institutional efficiency; diversify the economy to reduce dependence on oil; and cooperate with international financial institutions to design debt sustainability policies consistent with the Sustainable Development Goals.

Abstract

The process of statistical analysis is one of the most important problems facing most researchers in choosing the appropriate statistical method for statistical analysis in scientific research. The purpose of this research is to provide a mechanism that allows the choosing of appropriate statistical methods and measures to process data of any type or Its nature and to be able to apply them skillfully in statistical analysis. Where the method of selecting statistical measures depends on specifying the goal of the research and the hypothesis of the research that the scientific researcher wants to prove, such as if he wants to indicate the type and nature of the relationship between the variables or indicate the effect of a variable on another or needs to study what the phenomenon will be in the future, as well as the researcher to determine Its data type (where it is possible to classify it by its type, its level of measurement, or by the number of samples taken or by the number of variables) used in the research, as the nature of the data is what determines the type of statistical scale used, and to test the search data to indicate whether it is possible to apply to it Parametric and nonparametric.
The researcher designed an electronic questionnaire as a tool to collect information and distributed it randomly electronically (due to the existing ban due to the Corona pandemic) to Teaching staff Iraqi universities and institutes to show the most important problems of statistical analysis, and (100) forms were chosen after excluding the forms that were filled by professors who specialize Statistics as well as those who specialize in Arabic (because most of their research is theoretical and do not need statistical analysis in their research), and where most of the answers of research community Medium knowledge by statistical measures, their advantages and conditions of use, and they applied what they found followed in previous research, which is a large percentage. Or they depend on the specialists and also we find that most of the sample members want to learn the basics of statistical analysis and how to choose the best scale in the statistical analysis of scientific research. The researcher suggested to the scientific researcher to set the research goal and hypothesis first, and then determine the type of data used in the research, and then choose the appropriate scale for the type of their data and not rely on similar previous research.
