Journal of Forensic Accounting (JFA) in Accounting Software 4 Sale Directory

The Journal of Forensic Accounting: Auditing, Fraud, and Risk (JFA) is dedicated to promoting excellence in forensic accounting. The journal is an independent international forum for the publication of research dealing with the models and methodologies of investigative and forensic accounting, seeking to establish a balance between theoretical and empirical studies, and striving to foster practitioner-academic dialogue and collaboration. Papers spanning the full spectrum of assurance, attestation and advisory services provided by professional public accountants engaged within a strict legal framework are solicited. The focus of the journal is on the evidentiary nature of accounting data, and topics include accounting fraud and forensic auditing; compliance, due diligence, and risk assessment; detection of financial statement misrepresentation and tax evasion; bankruptcy and valuation studies; GAAS, GAAP and SEC violations or accounting irregularities; non-standard entries, structured transactions, records tampering, and earnings management (non-neutral financial reporting); fair presentation and disclosure transparency; audit quality review and evaluation; transaction tracing, reconstruction and accountability; litigation support and dispute avoidance; extended procedures within a statutory or forensic audit environment; money and information laundering; and the underground economy. In addition, papers on particular techniques and technologies, and preventative controls and improved standards are invited. Multi-disciplinary research capable of informing the dialogue is welcomed. Submitted research should be grounded in real-world business risks, disputes, or litigation issues faced by practitioners and entity stakeholders. All research articles are reviewed.
