Comparative analysis of the first-time application of international financial reporting standards, using the example of two companies
107-119Views:350In this article I have made a comparative analysis of the first application of International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRSs) from the perspective of two Hungarian companies engaged in financial activities, Budapest Fund Management Ltd. and Fundamenta-Lakáskassza Kft. The aim of the research is to explore the differences between the Hungarian accounting system and IFRS, with a special focus on valuation principles and methods.
The study presents IFRS 1, IAS 1 and IAS 12 and the effects of the transition to IFRS on the financial statements. Of the two companies examined, the changeover resulted in only minimal changes for Budapest Fund Management Ltd., while Fundamenta-Lakáskassza Kft. experienced more significant changes, particularly in the accounting for securities and deferred taxes. The research concludes that IFRS-compliant reporting provides more detailed and transparent information to market participants. However, the transition to IFRS can impose a significant administrative and financial burden on companies, especially smaller companies. The author suggests further convergence of the Hungarian accounting system towards IFRS, taking into account cost-benefit ratios.

Examination of the Net Profit during the transition to IFRS
Views:137The research examines the impact of the transition to IFRS in the context of companies operating under the Hungarian accounting environment. The focus of the study is on first-time adopters that also prepare their individual financial statements in accordance with IFRS. Based on the descriptive statistical analysis, the average net income is higher under IFRS than under the Hungarian accounting standards for both high and low capital-intensive companies. However, the difference is not significant, especially in the case of companies with low capital intensity. Due to the high variability in the results, extreme values were filtered out, yet the data still did not follow a normal distribution. The Wilcoxon rank-sum test showed p-values above 5% in both clusters, indicating no statistically significant difference between net income figures reported under the two accounting systems. This finding is further supported by the effect size values, which reflect a weak relationship between the variables. Overall, the transition to IFRS does not have a meaningful impact on the net income.

Subsequent measurement models according to ifrs in bux index comapnies
69-77Views:297The main purpose of the research is to examine the models used for the subsequent measurement of property, plant and equipment, intangibles, and investment properties in the case of BUX index companies. Since the BUX index includes companies listed on the Budapest Stock Exchange, they must prepare their financial statements according to the International Financial Reporting Standards (hereinafter: IFRS). In my research, I examined the models used by the companies of the BUX index regarding the subsequent measurement. As a research question, I formulated whether the companies of the BUX index use a model similar to the model used in Hungarian accounting or take advantage of the transition to IFRS and instead use models that show assets at fair value in their books. The study points out that the routines of the evaluation methods used in the previous Hungarian accounting system remained even after the transition to IFRS.

The Introduction of IFRS at the Level of Individual Reports
140-143Views:369In recent years, there is a need for public limited companies registered in stock exchange not to do bookkeeping according to the Hungarian Accouni ng Act and prepare their annual reports in accordance with it. Instead of it, prepare consolidated annual fi nancial statements under IFRS. This could lead to a signifi cant reduci on of administrai ve burden, as management makes every business decision based on IFRS instead of the Hungarian Accouni ng Act; especially in cases
where the determinai on of the corporate income tax is based on fi nancial statements prepared in accordance with internai onal standards. -
VALUATION AND APPEARANCE OF HUMAN RESOURCES IN CORPORATE ASSETS
24-31Views:330A significant part of the value of a company is represented by intangible resources, which can be referred to under various names in the scientific literature (e.g. intellectual capital, intangible assets, knowledge capital, etc.). In the scope of the present study, the importance of valuing human resources and possible valuation methods are presented. Human resource accounting is mentioned in a number of academic works, but no unified definition has emerged for describing the term. The human value added model is also discussed, which provides the adjusted value of the company by adding the human assets to the assets side of the balance sheet and the human capital with the related future payment obligations of the employees to the liabilities side. Expert suggestions are also presented, according to which human assets should also be depreciated by means of a certain method or revalued at regular intervals. The provisions of the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) are mentioned, as IFRS also regulate the recognition of future employee expenses and the recognition of internally generated intangible assets and intangible assets acquired in business combinations.

The financial significance of player rights based on the financial statements of hungarian and international football clubs
76-85Views:171In contemporary football, the financial dynamics of clubs are increasingly influenced not only by on-field performance but also by player market transactions, which have gained significant economic importance in recent years. Transfers have become pivotal financial events for football clubs, with the sale of player rights playing a fundamental role in their revenue structures and financial strategies. This study examines the financial statements from 2020 to 2024 of three football clubs operating under different accounting standards: FTC Labdarúgó Zrt. (complying with Hungarian accounting regulations), Borussia Dortmund KGaA, and Juventus Football Club S.p.A. (both adhering to IFRS). Through a comparative analysis, the research investigates the extent to which revenues from the sale of player rights contribute to the total income of these clubs and whether there is a discernible trend of increasing reliance on this revenue stream during the specified period. The study aims to elucidate how intensified activity in the player transfer market is reflected in the financial statements of these clubs, particularly concerning shifts in their revenue structures.
