A viability algorithm is developed to compute the constrained minimum time function for general dynamical systems. The algorithm is instantiated for a specific dynamics(Dubin’s vehicle forced by a flow field) in order to numerically solve the minimum time problem. With the specific...

We present new metaheuristics for solving real crew scheduling problems in a public transportation bus company. Since the crews of these companies are drivers, we will designate the problem by the bus-driver scheduling problem. Crew scheduling problems are well known and several mathematical...

Based on the ten areas that are measured by the ease of doing business (EDB) and based on the getting credit (GC) indicator, this study seeks to analyze factors that lead to a more favorable business climate in different countries. The methodology of fuzzy-set qualitative comparative analysis...

This paper examines whether the level of enforcement shapes the complexity in accounting standards. First, in order to identify the level of complexity in accounting standards, we calculated a new measure that conceptualizes accounting complexity based on the theoretical dimensions of...

The adoption of IAS 19: Employee benefits (2004) provided managers with an important accounting choice affecting the time and placement of actuarial gains and losses recognition. IAS 19 enables a choice between three major accounting methods related to the recognition of actuarial gains and...

Since 2005, IASB standards have become mandatory for publicly listed European companies in the consolidated financial statements (Regulation 1606/2002 of European Parliament and the Council). The adoption of IAS 19: Employee benefits (2004) provided managers with an important accounting choice...

The main goal of this paper is to analyze the factors that influence the auditor's decision to disclose goodwill impairment as a key audit matter (KAM). For this analysis, we use a logit model to determine the factors that influence auditors' disclosure of a goodwill impairment as a KAM. Our...
