Summary

Before 2012 Indonesian accounting standards referred to US-GAAP accounting principles, and after 2012 turned to International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). A study conducted by Shi, Wang, & Zhou (2017) concluded that the purpose of moving the location of OCI presentation from balance sheet equity to the income statement is to increase the transparency of financial statements and the predictive power of earnings for an estimated stock price. This is caused by the fact that users of financial statements use OCI in financial analysis for decision making Elbakry, Nwachukwu & Abdou (2017) concluded that the ability of accounting information in predicting future earnings increased after converging with IFRS (compared to before while still using the previous standard)
