(B) The information content of accounting

The concept of accounting information in 2000, the Shenzhen

Municipal Finance Bureau and the Shenzhen Kingdee Software Technology Co., Ltd in Shenzhen's "new situation, management accounting software market, Information Theory Symposium accounting expert forum" on the make is the accounting computerized product development to a new stage. Theoretical understanding of information technology sector have

Therefore, to promote the use of advanced technology reinforced connecting to improve project quality and speed up the pace of construction, improve labor productivity, reduce costs, and is of great significance. Reinforced steel bars connecting technologies can be divided into two broad categories linking welding machinery and steel. There are six types of welding steel welding methods, and some apply to the prefabricated plant, and some apply to the construction site, some of both apply. There are three types of machinery commonly used reinforcement linking method primarily applicable to the construction site. Ways has its own characteristics and different application, and in the continuous development and improvement. In actual production, should be based on specific conditions of work, working environment and technical requirements, the choice of suitable methods to achieve the best overall efficiency. 1、steel mechanical link 1.1 radial squeeze link Will be a steel sleeve in two sets to the highly-reinforced Department with superhigh pressure hydraulic equipment (squeeze tongs) along steel sleeve radial squeeze steel casing, in squeezing out tongs squeeze pressure role of a steel sleeve plasticity deformation closely integrated with reinforced through reinforced steel sleeve and Wang Liang's Position will be two solid steel bars linked Characteristic: Connect intensity to be high, performance reliable, can bear high stress draw and pigeonhole the load and tired load repeatedly.

企业环境成本会计外文翻译 ACCOUNTING IN SMALL AND MEDIUM-SIZED COMPANIES 1．ENVIRONMENTAL COST ACCOUNTING IN SMES Since its inception some 30 years ago, Environmental Cost Accounting (ECA) has reached a stage of development where individual ECA systems are separated from the core accounting system based an assessment of environmental costs with (see Fichter et al., 1997, Letmathe and Wagner , 2002). As environmental costs are commonly assessed as overhead costs, neither the older concepts of full costs accounting nor the relatively recent one of direct costing appear to represent an appropriate basis for the implementation of ECA. Similar to developments in conventional accounting, the theoretical and conceptual sphere of ECA has focused on process-based accounting since the 1990s (see Hallay and Pfriem, 1992, Fischer and Blasius, 1995, BMU/UBA, 1996, Heller et al., 1995, Letmathe, 1998, Spengler and H.hre, 1998). Taking available concepts of ECA into consideration, process-based concepts seem the best option regarding the establishment of ECA (see Heupel and Wendisch , 2002). These concepts, however, have to be continuously revised to ensure that they work well when applied in small and medium-sized companies. Based on the framework for Environmental Management Accounting presented in Burritt et al. (2002), our concept of ECA focuses on two main groups of environmentally related impacts. These are environmentally induced financial effects and company-related effects on environmental systems (see Burritt and Schaltegger, 2000, p.58). Each of these impacts relate to specific categories of financial and environmental information. The environmentally induced financial effects are represented by monetary environmental information and the effects on environmental systems are represented by physical environmental information. Conventional accounting deals with both – monetary as well as physical units – but does not focus on environmental impact as such. To arrive at a practical solution to the implementation of ECA in a company’s existing accounting system, and to comply with the problem of distinguishing between monetary and physical aspects, an integrated concept is required. As physical information is often the basis for the monetary information (e.g. kilograms of a raw material are the basis for the monetary valuation of raw material consumption), the integration

会计信息质量在投资中的决策作用对私人信息和监测的影响 安妮比蒂，美国俄亥俄州立大学 瓦特史考特廖，多伦多大学 约瑟夫韦伯，美国麻省理工学院 1简介 管理者与外部资本的供应商信息是不对称的在这种情况下企业是如何影响金融资本 的投资的呢？越来越多的证据表明，会计质量越好，越可以减少信息的不对称和对融资成本的约束。与此相一致的可能性是，减少了具有更高敏感性的会计质量的公司的投资对内部产生的现金流量。威尔第和希拉里发现，对企业投资和与投资相关的会计质量容易不足，是容易引发过度投资的原因。 当投资效率低下时，会计的质量重要性可以减轻外部资本的影响，供应商有可能获得私人信息或可直接监测管理人员。通过访问个人信息与控制管理行为，外部资本的供应商可以直接影响企业的投资，降低了会计质量的重要性。符合这个想法的还有比德尔和希拉里的比较会计对不同国家的投资质量效益的影响。他们发现，会计品质的影响在于美国投资效益，而不是在日本。他们认为，一个可能的解释是不同的是债务和股权的美国版本的资本结构混合了SUS的日本企业。 我们研究如何通过会计质量灵敏度的重要性来延长不同资金来源对企业的投资现金 流量的不同影响。直接测试如何影响不同的融资来源会计，通过最近获得了债务融资的公司来投资敏感性现金流的质量的效果，债务融资的比较说明了对那些不能够通过他们的能力获得融资的没有影响。为了缓解这一问题，我们限制我们的样本公司有所有最近获得的债务融资和利用访问的差异信息和监测通过公共私人债务获得连续贷款的建议。我们承认，投资内部现金流敏感性可能较低获得债务融资的可能性。然而，这种可能性偏见拒绝了我们的假设。 具体来说，我们确定的数据样本证券公司有1163个采样公司（议会），通过发行资本公共债务或银团债务。我们限制我们的样本公司最近获得的债务融资持有该公司不断融资与借款。然而，在样本最近获得的债务融资的公司，也有可能是信号，在资本提供进入私人信息差异和约束他们放在管理中的行为。相关理论意味着减少公共债务持有人获取私人信息，因而减少借款有效的监测。在这些参数的基础上，我们预测，会计质量应该有一

外文翻译两篇(成本核算)

成本核算过程中的问题及策略 1.成本核算过程中存在的问题 1.1成本核算不精确 成本核算就是把产品的成本数据提供给企业的决策层，让决策层根据现实的真实情况进行分析定位，假设成本核算出现了较严重的错误，可想而知，将对企业未来的收益会产生致命的打击。但是，现实情况是，一些企业在进行成本核算很模糊，在没有保证企业的预期收益时就对产品进行了不合理的市场定价。 2.企业对成本核算没有足够的重视 成本核算对企业经营利润有着重要影响。在企业的正常经营情况下，企业的财务对成本核算出现错误的概率越小，对企业利润核算越精确。但是，企业要进行成本核算的工作量大、流程复杂；技术性较强，要求也比较苛刻；所以，企业财务人员在进行成本核算的过程中，牵涉的人比较多，这些诸多因素都使成本核算成为一项不太简单的实践操作工作。在企业的成本核算中，很多企业的财务人员对企业的成本核算不太重视，在核算过程中，出现了微小的误差，觉得没有太大的关系，造成企业利润核算的不正确。 1.3没有采用适合企业自身发展的成本核算方法 在市场经济条件下，每个企业都有每个企业独特的特点，应该针对各个企业的生产经营特点，选择合适的成本核算方法。但是，现阶段，一部分企业在明确成本核算对象之后没有选择一个科学的、切合企业实际的成本核算方法对企业成本进行科学核算。这种现象在中小型企业尤其普遍。 2.加强企业成本核算管理途径 2.1提高企业管理者的成本管理意识 在现代的经济形势下，只有企业的领导者和全体员工对成本控制有了足够的重视，才可以使成本核算的工作在企业顺利全面展开。但是在当今知识经济时代，企业财务管理者没有意识到成本核算和控制在企业经济管理中的重要性，只进行简单的算账、报账，对支出的成本详细计算，对自身成本不进行认真核算；只重视产品售后的核算，不重视产品售出和售出中的控制；只依靠会计人员的数据报表，不关注市场的发展动态；那么只会导致他们对成本核算方法改进的忽视，让企业的成本核算管理工作越来越差。因此，要提高企业全体人员的成本意识，改
