Comment Letters, Leases, Lobbying, IASB, IFRS 16Resumo
Objetivo: O estudo pretende analisar a potencial existência de lobbying no processo de substituição da International Accounting Standard (IAS) 17 pela International Financial Reporting Standard (IFRS) 16, emitidas pelo International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) e relativas às locações. Método: Foram recolhidas 641 comment letters submetidas à consulta pública no âmbito do Exposure Draft revisto (2013). O estudo adota a análise de conteúdo como método, sendo os dados posteriormente submetidos a técnicas de análise estatística univariada e bivariada. Resultados: Os resultados sugerem a existência de lobbying a partir da constatação de divergências significativas entre entidades financeiras e não financeiras no que diz respeito às questões principais da norma, relacionadas com o reconhecimento e com o modelo único de contabilização das locações. Contribuições: Aferir a existência de diferenças significativas de opinião indiciadoras de lobbying no âmbito de um projeto de substituição de norma promovido pelo Iasb e, em função dos distintos interesses envolvidos (lobbies), constitui, assim, o principal contributo da presente investigação.Referências
