The factors affecting successful accounting information are two variables including accounting professional and accounting information system (AIS) competency. Population and sample of this research is the companies listed in the Stock Exchange of Thailand (SET). A questionnaire mail was used for collecting the data from chief accountant officer of the companies listed in the SET. The results indicate that accounting professional has a positive significant effect on successful accounting information in all dimensions including effective planning, efficient controlling, and promoting decision and communication. Moreover, AIS competency has a positive significant effect on successful accounting information only in dimension of promoting decision and communication. Overall, the results indicate that internal resource and capabilities including accounting professional and AIS competency are the primary factors that influence successful accounting information of Thai-listed companies. Theoretical and managerial contributions are explicitly provided. Conclusions, suggestions and directions for future research are also presented.展开更多

Those factors include company size, profitability, leverage, state ownership, managerial ownership, and foreign ownership, board independence, role duality, and type of external auditors. Evidence from this study suggests two main findings: (1) Companies with high foreign ownership have a high level of voluntary disclosure; (2) The company size is an important factor related to the increased level of voluntary disclosure in annual reports of Vietnamese listed companies. However, no significant associations are found between profitability, leverage, state ownership, managerial ownership, board independence, role duality, and type of external auditors as hypothesized in this study.展开更多
