Abstract: Fair Value Accounting and Earnings Management Using LLP and Realized Gains and Losses: Study in Banking Industry Listed on Indonesia Stock Exchange. This study examines whether earnings management can be limited by the implementation of fair value accounting in banking industry. The main contribution of this study is  providing provide empirical evidence about the impact of fair value accounting on earnings management in Indonesia. Earnings management is proxied by loan loss provision (LLP), the realized of gains and losses, and the trade-off between realized gains and losses and LLP following Bratten et al (2013). The study provides empirical evidence that earnings management is still performed by banks, by using LLP, realized gains and losses and also occurs trade-off between LLP and realized gains and losses as means to perform earnings management in accordance with the needs of management. If banks are exposed to fair value accounting, managers will have more flexibility in reporting banks’ financial performance to present a desired earning, by  providing them with additional earning managements tools. These findings can be informative for policymakers, banking practitioners, and academics.  Keywords: earnings management, fair value accounting, LLP, realized gains and losses, trade-off LLP and realized gains and losses.Abstrak: Akuntansi Nilai Wajar dan Manajemen Laba menggunakan CKPN dan Realized Gains and Losses: Studi pada Industri Perbankan yang terdaftar di Bursa Efek Indonesia. Studi ini bertujuan untuk meneliti apakah manajemen laba dapat dibatasi oleh penerapan akuntansi nilai wajar dalam industri perbankan.

In this study, we examine whether banks’ use of the loan loss provision (LLP) to manage earnings is associated with (a) the extent to which banks hold assets subject to fair value reporting and (b) the use of an industry specialist auditor. We find that banks with a greater proportion of assets subject to fair value reporting (i.e., higher fair value exposure) use less LLP-based earnings management but more transaction-based earnings management (i.e., earnings management achieved by timing the realization of gains/losses). We also find that banks engaging industry specialist auditors use less LLP-based earnings management. Our findings suggest that banks’ use of the LLP to manage earnings is more limited when they have access to alternative earnings management tools and when they engage an auditor with more industry knowledge. Our results should be informative to regulators, members of the banking industry, and academics interested in the earnings management behavior of banks.

This study investigates the application of fair value ac- counting in companies in Bosnia and Herzegovina. The study was conducted on a sample of 190 companies. The application of fair value accounting causes a lot of controversy related to the relevance and reliability of fair value information. It is believed that the extent to which fair value measurement is used reflects attitudes of financial statement preparers about the usefulness of this model at its best. The findings of this study sug- gest that most companies in Bosnia and Herzegovina do not have tendency to apply fair value accounting. It is found that half of the companies in the sample do not use fair value accounting at all. Almost half of the com- panies that use fair value accounting use it just because they own assets that require fair value measurement. Fair value accounting is much more used in financial and larger companies than in non-financial and smaller companies. Companies mostly use fair value accounting for the measurement of investment property. However, they use it for the measurement of intangible assets at a minimum. The findings also suggest that the application of fair value accounting increases the uncertainty in fi- nancial statements. The quality of fair value disclosures is very low. Numerous companies do not disclose infor- mation on fair value hierarchy and valuation techniques that were used for fair value measurement. Companies that disclose this information mostly use indirectly ob- servable inputs (Level 2) for fair value measurement and these create a lot of room for earnings management.

The purpose of this study is to determine the effect of fair value accounting and board of commissioners on earnings management. The renewal of this study where the research also aims to determine the role of sharia in moderating the influence of fair value accounting and the board of commissioners on earnings management. Researchers tested banking companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange in 2015-2018 with a total sample of 152 samples using a purposive sampling method. The results showed that fair value accounting and the board of commissioners had no effect on earnings management, where the probability value of both was greater than the level of significance (0.005). In addition, the results of the study stated that the role of sharia can reduce the effect of fair value on earnings management with a significance level of 10% (0.10). However, the role of sharia cannot actually reduce the influence of the board of commissioners on earnings management with a probability level greater than 0.005. Recommendations for further research are expected to be able to trace real earnings management because in this study only using accrual earnings management, then it is expected that the next researcher broadens the sample used and adds other variables that are considered to influence earnings management.
