This paper mainly focus on the literature concerning comprehensible input so as to find the arguments from the researchers,as well as its implication for teaching.
Based on the input theories which focus on the studies of comprehensible input(CI),the writer argues that CI is important for listening comprehension,and also suggests the multidimensional teaching to facilitate more CI.

In addition, we verify whether the recent requirement of International Accounting Standard (IAS) 1 (r2011) of providing the other comprehensive income (OCI) separates in two sub-totals (recycling and non-recycling items groups) is useful to explain the expected cash flows. We consider a sample of 121 Italian non-financial companies listed on the Italian Stock Exchange for the testing period of 2008-2011, employing a fixed-effect regression model, and we test the relationship between the changes in the variables considered and not the relative absolute value reducing, in this way, the risk of not grasping a report if the independent variable and the response variable do not have the same sign. Our results stress that CI and the two new sub-aggregates are not relevant to explain future cash flows, while net income (NI) and OC1 as a whole seem to be more relevant to make explicit the future financial position. The study contributes, as a sort of post-implementation review, to the current debate on the ability of Cl to predict the future cash flows and on the real usefulness of the CI and the sub-aggregate identified by the IAS 1 revised as well.展开更多

This paper aims to verify the compliance of the comprehensive income (CI) statement format with International Accounting Standard (IAS) 1-presentation of financial statements, which was revised in 2007. The changes introduced by the 2011 revision are also taken into account. For this purpose, this study analyzes the final annual financial statements approved in 2011 by the Italian companies whose shares belonged to the Italia Star segment of Financial Times and Stock Exchange (FTSE). Given that IAS 1 provides little specific guidance about the presentation of line items and permits many alternative types of format, this paper focuses on information organization in the statement of CI in order to analyze the degree of heterogeneity of financial information. For achieving this goal, this study considers the following issues: (1) presentation of all items of income and expense in an overall statement or in two separate statements; (2) a detailed level of the content in terms of number of items between revenue and net income (NI); (3) classification of expenses either by nature or by function; (4) number and type of intermediate margins; and (5) presentation of items of other comprehensive income (OCI) either before tax or net of tax. The results show some clear evidences. On the one hand, there is a high diversity in accounting practices, which makes it difficult for users to compare financial information across entities, highlighting the need to complete the joint project of the standards setters (IASB and Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB)) on financial statement presentation. On the other hand, some alternative types of presentation (e.g., the tendency to split the CI statement into two statements rather than using an integrated solution, the prevalence to disaggregate the expenses by nature, etc.) are used by most of the entities of the sample possibly because of the influence of Italian accounting culture.展开更多
