The road to prosperity with the Industrial Revolution was now through production and sale to the world through free trade policies and instruments. Until then, the exploitation of precious metals and the accumulation of commercial capital in the world through international trade had continued to increase since the second half of the century. In fact, the growth rate of industrial production and world trade in the following years had been significantly higher than in previous years and periods.Increased trade with the effect of the industrial revolution has led to the need for trade education. Commercial education, which began with the Industrial Revolution in Europe and the United States, is the foundation of today’s major trade schools. In this study, we examined how business education began in Europe and the United States, the steps it took and how it was taught.Economic growth and development are not the same things, although economic growth is a phenomenon that is followed by almost everyone. Economic growth includes the increase in per capita national income. Development involves both economic growth and structural change. Economic development occurs over a long period of time when there is an increase in the economic welfare of individuals in a country. The idea of a link between development and foreign trade in economic theory is based on classical economists. Adam Smith and David Ricardo, J.S., who were the representatives of the liberal view, who produced their works in the second half of the 18th century and the first half of the 19th century. Classical economists like Mill talk about the dynamic effects of markets. Not only one country will benefit from free foreign trade, but international prosperity and exchange will increase prosperity all over the world. Since the second half of the 19th century and at the beginning of the 20th century, there has been strong criticism of the views of the Classical School.The systematic penetration of trade education into the European and American Education Systems, which is the basis of today’s Faculties of Business and Economics, has been with the Industrial Revolution. These schools, which constitute the foundations of today’s highly respected universities, have given great importance to the merchant sector and they have never denied the material and moral support of these schools both during the establishment and development of these schools. Over time, the educational contents changed, were updated and started to use modern educational techniques required by the era. The main reason for the emergence of these schools was the need for qualified manpower required by the trade. Realizing that economic growth cannot be lasting without economic development, the western world has seen and continued to invest in people who are at the heart of economic growth.In fact, in our country, trade education has started to be given in a way that does not fall behind the Western examples. The Greek nation, which was the best nation in the Ottoman Empire, established the Elen Commerce School in Heybeliada (Halki), the first private business school of the country, in 1831 and began to train traders in need of trade. Following the closure of the Elen School of Commerce for various reasons, the Hamidiye School of Commerce was established in 1883 as the first public school of the country. After school, it became Istanbul Academy of Economic and Commercial Sciences, and gave life to Marmara University which is today one of the biggest universities in the country.

Artificial intelligence has emerged as a transformative force in the field of accounting, revolutionising processes, increasing efficiency, and providing valuable insights to stakeholders. The ability of AI to automate tasks, enhance accuracy, and provide data-driven predictions has reshaped the accounting domain, enabling accountants to focus more on strategic and value-added tasks. One of the key features that make the adoption of artificial intelligence in the field of accounting is its ability to automate repetitive and time-consuming tasks. Artificial intelligence algorithms can efficiently handle tasks such as data entry, record-keeping, and invoice processing, allowing accountants to focus on more complex and strategic tasks. As artificial intelligence continues to evolve, its role in accounting is expected to further expand and stimulate innovation and transformation across the industry.However, the use of artificial intelligence in accounting raises certain ethical concerns. When employing AI in accounting, it is necessary to pay attention to ethical principles, such as transparency, accountability, privacy, bias, fairness, explaining ability, and societal impact. The use of artificial intelligence in accounting is particularly concerning in terms of transparency and accountability. How and in what manner do artificial intelligence make decisions when used in a certain field? This is an important question that must be addressed. Whether the decisions made are fair and unbiased has always been a controversial issue. Therefore, it could be a significant step for accountants to use AI systems that establish trust, accountability, transparency, and auditability. In addition, delineating an ethical framework with defined boundaries can make the complex environment of AI safer, ensuring that it serves the accounting profession more securely. In this way, the ethical principles of accounting can be upheld, and public trust in the profession can be enhanced.&nbsp;Ethical principles regarding the use of AI in accounting necessitate a great emphasis on data privacy. The intensive processing of sensitive financial data requires stringent security measures. Compliance with data protection regulations and ethical standards is critical for ensuring the privacy and confidentiality of financial information. Algorithmic bias emerges as another ethical concern related to the use of AI in accounting processes. If training data contain biases, artificial intelligence algorithms may perpetuate and reinforce these biases, leading to unfair and discriminatory outcomes. To address this issue, continuous monitoring, evaluation, and adjustment of algorithms are necessary to minimise biases and ensure fairness in decision-making processes. In addition to increases in efficiency and improvements in accuracy, artificial intelligence also makes significant contributions to fraud detection mechanisms in accounting. AI-supported systems enhance financial integrity by detecting irregularities and anomalies in financial transactions. This, in turn, supports a functioning that is aligned with ethical corporate responsibility and accountability principles. The responsibilities and roles of stakeholders in accounting arising from the use of AI are also addressed. Establishing clear ethical guidelines for the use of artificial intelligence in accounting, utilising qualified and field-appropriate AI applications, and imparting ethical knowledge and skills to stakeholders can preserve the ethical principles of the accounting profession and enhance trust in the profession.In conclusion, although the integration of AI into accounting offers significant practical benefits, ethical concerns must also be carefully addressed. Balancing efficiency gains with ethical responsibilities requires careful consideration of various issues, such as layoffs, data privacy protection, algorithmic bias reduction, and fair decision-making. As accounting professionals embrace technological advancements, an ethical approach that preserves trust and integrity must be adopted to fully leverage the potential of artificial intelligence.&nbsp;

According to the latest 2024 Occupational Fraud Report published by the International Association of Certified Fraud Examiners (ACFE), asset misappropriation is the most common and has the highest financial impact in 89% of the cases studied (ACFE 2024, p. 10). It aims to prevent these abuses by the entity through an independent audit process and to convey fair information to the users of financial information.In Turkey, the Public Oversight Accounting and Auditing Standards Authority (POA), which is authorised to ensure and maintain the quality of independent audit processes and publish accounting and auditing standards, shares its reviews of audit reports and processes, excluding denunciations and complaints, with financial information users through annual reports and imposes sanctions for misstatements it detects. These POA feedback ensure the quality assurance of the independent audit process and prevent misstatements. The accounting findings identified in the annual review reports published by POA for the years 2016-2022 are similar in terms of years. In a revenue cycle audit consisting of inventories, revenue, trade receivables, and trade payables, the similarity of the findings on compliance with accounting and auditing standards over a seven-year period reveals the need for research on revenue cycle audits. The purpose of this study is to understand misstatements in the revenue cycle audit process, which are similar over the years, and to determine strategies to improve misstatements to enable financial information users to make appropriate decisions.&nbsp;There are five basic subsystems that constitute the accounting information system. These are directly related to each other; revenue cycle, expenditure cycle, production cycle, human resources, and finance cycles. The revenue cycle is realised in two basic stages. The physical stage, in which assets or services are passed from the seller to the buyer, and the financial stage, which involves the receipt of payment by the seller (Hall 2011, p. 153).Regulations required to be complied with in the accounting records and reporting of entities subject to independent audit regarding revenue, inventories, trade receivables, and payables in the revenue cycle; TFRS 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers, TAS 1 Presentation of Financial Statements, TAS 2 Inventories, TAS 23 Cost of Borrowing, TAS 8 Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors, TAS 21 Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates, TAS 37 Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets, Conceptual Framework. In accordance with these standards, an independent auditor shall carry out auditing activities for accounting transactions and financial reporting.Each year, the POA discloses to the public through inspection reports any irregularities that arise in the independent audit processes that are expected to be performed in accordance with the Standards on Independent Auditing (SIA) issued by the POA. In the annual inspection reports published by the POA for the years 2016-2022, the findings commonly identified in independent audit processes performed by independent auditors, excluding denunciations and complaints, are similar across all seven years.Auditors are expected to analyse these annual examination reports carefully, particularly considering the misappropriation of assets, errors, and fraud detected in the revenue cycle elements. Although the fines and administrative sanctions imposed by the POA are important for solving the problem, the fact that the same findings are detected in seven annual reports indicates that different strategies need to be developed to solve the problem.&nbsp;Studies in the literature have revealed that the quality of an independent audit process can also be negatively affected by reasons arising from the auditor and the audit team. In order to reduce misstatements as a result of this effect, it is suggested that this issue should be addressed separately in the continuing education of auditors, and revenue cycle misstatements should be emphasised in independent audit examinations. In addition, due care should be taken to ensure that auditors perform the processes in strict compliance with accounting and auditing standards. It would be useful to establish audit quality working groups, transfer the results of academic studies to stakeholders, and focus auditors on the processes of the companies they audit and the activities of the sector. It is important that firms perform risk-focused revenue cycle audits and use more audit evidence in their revenue cycle audits. As a result of this study, it is recommended to prepare checklists to be used in audit activities, especially in areas where the findings are similar, and to address the sanctions imposed by POA more systematically.&nbsp;

Bibliometric analysis is a method used to examine studies written in any branch of science, to determine the development process in that branch of science, and to see which topics are focused on (Hotaşımlı and Erem, 2014).Although it is not known exactly when the first study on bibliometric analysis was made in the literature, it is said that the study titled “Theory of National and International Bibliography”, conducted by Campbell in 1896, was the first (Hood and Wilson, 2001). According to Donthu et al. 2021, discussions about bibliometric analysis started in the early 1950s, but bibliometric analysis has become populars in recent years because of the ease of obtaining large volumes of data in Scopus and Web of Science databases and the ease of analysis with bibliometric software such as Gephi, Leximancer, and VOSviewer.&nbsp;The study examined and analyse the articles published in the Journal of Accounting Institute in terms of their bibliometric features. Because of the literature review, no bibliometric analysis study was found regarding a journal with a deep-rooted history, such as the Journal of the Accounting Institute. In the study, the number of articles published in the journal by year was evaluated by classifying them into categories such as the number of pages of the articles, the types of the articles, their writing language, the types of sources they used, the number of contributing authors, their title, gender, institution, and keywords used in the articles. Since the issues of the journal before 2018 could not be accessed from the Dergipark and the Journal of Accounting Institute’s website, 11 issues covering the years 2018-2023 were examined.According to the analysis results of the study, a total of 70 articles were published between 2018 and 2023. When the number of articles published by year was examined, it was determined that the most articles were published in 2019 and the fewest articles were published in 2018.When the published articles were classified according to their number of pages, 47 articles were in the range of 11-20 pages, and none of the articles were in the range of 31-40 pages. It has been concluded that the article types generally consist of studies conducted in the journal, research, compilation, opinion, case study, technical note, and symposium note. The most published article type is a research article, and the least published article type is a symposium note and technical note In the journal, where publications are published in Turkish and English, 62 of the 70 studies published between 2018 and 2023 were published in Turkish and 8 in English.The total number of Turkish and foreign sources used in the studies published in the journal is 1887. It was observed that 1131 of these sources were foreign sources, while 756 were Turkish sources. When the academic titles of the 120 authors who contributed to the journal were classified, it was determined that the group that we call the other category, consisting of doctoral / master’s students and private and public sector employees, made the most contributions, while the least contribution was in the lecturer and research assistant category. In gender classification, 61 male authors and 59 female authors contributed to the magazine.In the analysis where 70 articles were examined, the most studies consisted of studies with double authors, while the least studies consisted of studies with three or more authors.The keywords used in the studies published in the journal were analysed and it was determined that Auditing, Accounting, Corporate Governance, and Financial Reporting were the most used keywords.Finally, the author institutions that contributed the most to the journal were Istanbul University, Marmara University, and Halic University.

Inflation, a continuous and significant increase in the general price level, emerges as an economic reality. It is a crucial issue globally and is also felt in Turkey economically, socially, and morally. The resurgence of high inflation in Turkey has brought the issue of inflation accounting to the forefront. The impacts on financial statements become more pronounced as the inflation rate rises. This heightened impact necessitates that businesses and financial analysts pay closer attention to the distortions caused by inflation in their financial reporting. Historical cost accounting, which records assets and liabilities at their original purchase prices, becomes less relevant as the real value of money changes over time.Financial statements provide critical information for decision makers; However, during the preparation of these statements, inflation is a significant obstacle to accurate and relevant financial reporting. To accurately evaluate real results, financial statements must be cleared of the negative effects of inflation. Because the information in financial statements based on historical cost loses its understandability as the nominal value of the local currency used as the unit of measurement changes, that is, the purchasing power of money varies on various dates. It is difficult to make comparisons between previous periods and different financial statements. This creates uncertainty about whether financial statements have the necessary qualitative characteristics. Therefore, correcting the financial statements of companies operating in countries affected by high inflation is of great importance to eliminate these negative effects. The methods applied in the literature and in practise to reduce the effects of inflation on financial statements are examined under two main categories: partial adjustment methods” and “permanent adjustment methods”. These methods offer different approaches to evaluating the effects of inflation on financial statements.Financial ratios are based on important measures used to evaluate a business’ financial performance. The impact of inflation on these ratios can have serious consequences on the financial soundness of businesses and their decision-making processes. As inflation distorts the true value of financial statement items, it can lead to inaccurate financial ratios. For instance, profitability ratios may appear inflated due to nominal increases in revenue and profits; however, in reality, the real purchasing power of these returns might decrease. Similarly, real assets and liabilities may be affected by inflation. To address these issues, financial analysts and decision makers must adjust financial ratios for inflation to reflect more accurate and consistent measures of financial performance. This can involve using inflation-adjusted figures for revenues, expenses, assets, and liabilities to recalculate financial ratios. Overall, understanding and adjusting for the effects of inflation is essential for accurate financial analysis, sound business decision-making, and maintaining the financial health of businesses in an inflationary environment.In this study, the sector average of liquidity, financial structure, turnover rate, and profitability rates of companies in the production sector operating in Borsa Istanbul are examined in three-month quarters between the 2016 and 2023 periods. Time series analysis was used to test the research hypotheses. ADF (Augmented Dickey Fuller) analysis was performed to check the stationarity of the series, and the research hypotheses were tested using ARDL (Automatic Distributed Lag) modelling. The effects of PPI rates, which represent inflation, on financial ratios are discussed and interpreted in detail. Many studies in the literature discuss inflation accounting theoretically. However, empirical studies on inflation accounting are limited. This study aims to fill an important gap in this field and make a significant contribution to the literature by examining the effects of inflation on financial statements in detail. In this research, it was concluded that the financial structure ratios, borrowing capacities and profitability of companies are directly affected by changes in PPI. Additionally, some suggestions have been made on the subject.

Reviewers’ comments on the following aspects are expected while conducting the review.-    Does the manuscript contain new and significant information?-    Does the abstract clearly and accurately describe the content of the manuscript?-    Is the problem significant and concisely stated?-    Are the methods described comprehensively?-    Are the interpretations and consclusions justified by the results?-    Is adequate references made to other Works in the field?-    Is the language acceptable?Reviewers must ensure that all the information related to submitted manuscripts is kept as confidential and must report to the editor if they are aware of copyright infringement and plagiarism on the author’s side.A reviewer who feels unqualified to review the topic of a manuscript or knows that its prompt review will be impossible should notify the editor and excuse himself from the review process.The editor informs the reviewers that the manuscripts are confidential information and that this is a privileged interaction. The reviewers and editorial board cannot discuss the manuscripts with other persons. The anonymity of the referees is important.

Author Guidelines

Although references to review articles can be an efficient way to guide readers to a body of literature, review articles do not always reflect original work accurately. Readers should therefore be provided with direct references to original research sources whenever possible. On the other hand, extensive lists of references to original work on a topic can use excessive space on the printed page. Small numbers of references to key original papers often serve as well as more exhaustive lists, particularly since references can now be added to the electronic version of published papers, and since electronic literature searching allows readers to retrieve published literature efficiently. Papers accepted but not yet included in the issue are published online in the Early View section and they should be cited as “advance online publication”. Citing a “personal communication” should be avoided unless it provides essential information not available from a public source, in which case the name of the person and date of communication should be cited in parentheses in the text. For scientific articles, written permission and confirmation of accuracy from the source of a personal communication must be obtained.Reference Style and FormatJournal of Accounting Institute - Muhasebe Enstitüsü Dergisi complies with APA (American Psychological Association) style 6th Edition for referencing and quoting.
