Research Field
Financial Accounting
Research Theme
My research object is the problem how to calculate the gains and losses produced from transactions of services. Measurement of the earnings in financial accounting is a method of allocating cash flows to each fiscal year. It is the present subject to solve the above-mentioned problem and to explain the fictions in accounting from the viewpoint of selection of an allocating pattern. I investigate the problem theoretically and positively, choosing financial instruments (ex. bonds, receivables, loans) and pensions as research subjects.
