Key and critical audit matters appear on only 9 recent papers, although auditors of thousands of listed firms now describe the riskiest parts of each audit in their reports. Do these paragraphs say anything firm-specific after a few years, and does anyone react to them?
Non-GAAP earnings appear on only 6 recent papers. Technology firms report profits that exclude stock-based pay and, increasingly, the costs of AI investment, while AI start-ups report "adjusted" margins of their own design. Which adjustments mislead, and do investors see through them?
Goodwill appears on 14 recent papers across the tracked journals, with 2 in the last quarter. After a decade of acquisitions at high prices, goodwill on corporate balance sheets is enormous, and standard setters have again debated bringing back amortization. When do firms impair, and does the market believe them?
Cryptocurrency and digital assets appear on 476 recent papers, but only 6 of them carry an accounting, fair-value, reporting, disclosure or audit keyword. Since 2025, US firms report crypto holdings at fair value through earnings, and some firms now hold Bitcoin as their main asset. What does fair value accounting do to earnings, and does it change who holds crypto?
