Abstract

The purpose of this study is to analyze the means of accounting fraud in Chinese listed agricultural companies and to suggest methods for the prevention of accounting fraud and follow-up measures. In this study, 21 Chinese agricultural enterprises were investigated and counted by means of accounting fraud. The means of accounting fraud of listed companies related to agriculture mainly consisted of profit inflation, inflating their net assets, the disclosure of accounting information violations, asset inflation for net asset inflation, and the incomplete disclosure for accounting information violations. Among these, income forgery was the most frequent among the 21 companies surveyed as a means of accounting fraud in profit inflation. Through this study, in the field of auditing academically, it is possible to find the motives of fraudulent acts in Chinese agricultural enterprises and to obtain advice to reduce fraudulent acts, and it will be of great help in theoretical research related to accounting frauds.

본 연구는 중국 농업 상장기업의 회계부정 수단을 분석하여, 회계부정 예방과 후속 조치의 제시를 목적으로 한다. 본 연구에서는 21개의 중국 농업기업을 대상으로 회계부정 수단을 조사하여 분석한 것이다. 중국 농업기업들이 사용한 회계부정 수단과 각각의 수단의 사용 빈도 등을 조사하여 중국 농업기업의 회계부정 수단의 특징을 확인하고, 부정 예방을 위한 조치들을 제언할 것이다. 농업과 관련 상장기업의 회계부정 수단은 주로 이익 증액, 순자산 증액, 회계정보 위반 공시 등을 사용하였다. 중국의 위반 기업들을 분석한 결과, 이익 증액에서는 소득 위조, 순자산 증액에서는 자산 증액, 회계정보 위반 공시에서는 불완전한 공시를 주요 수단으로 사용한 것으로 나타났다. 이 중에서도 이익 증액에서 소득 위조가 조사대상 21개 중에서 16개 기업에서 회계부정의 수단으로 사용하여 빈도가 가장 높았다. 본 연구를 통하여 학문적으로 회계감사분야에 있어 중국 농업기업의 회계부정에 대해 부정행위의 동기를 찾아내고 부정행위를 줄일 수 있는 제언을 얻을 수 있으며 회계부정과 관련된 이론적 연구에 많은 도움이 될 것이다.
