Dividend policy and political uncertainty: Does firm maturity matter?
Previous evidence has shown that numerous factors influence dividend policy, but how political uncertainty affects a firms cash dividend policy remains blurry. This study examines the relationship between cash dividends and political uncertainty in Nigeria. More so, the study analyses whether this relationship prevails on matured and non-matured firms. The study employed ordinary least squares dummy variable (LSDV) approach with robust standard error on a data set of non-financial listed Nigerian firms. The results revealed that political uncertainty strongly influences firms cash dividend, and a matured firm tends to pay greater dividends than non-matured firms (firms with more growth options). Thus, this finding suggests that matured firms pay more dividends during period of political uncertainty. Consequently, the study supported the agency theory and the life cycle theory

Unveiling Intrinsic Value in Biodiversity Accounting: A Challenge for Accountants in Indonesia
This study aims to develop a conceptual framework of biodiversity accounting within the frame of intrinsic value using a deep ecological concept approach. This approach views biodiversity has inherent value as an object in the environment. Despite the difficulty to measure the intrinsic value of biodiversity, several studies have developed and used different methods for assessing and unveiling biodiversity in the entitys reports. It has been a challenge for accounting science and the accounting profession in Indonesia to develop biodiversity accounting which can be incorporated into the entity's financial statements. Therefore a conceptual framework is needed to integrate the intrinsic value. The proposed conceptual framework is developed from the first level, which is the policy or regulation as the basis for planning ecological activities. It is followed by the second level, i.e. the implementation process in the form of specific projects. Finally, the third level is the evaluation of the performance of the entity's ecological activities (P3FEA)

College Students Use and Reception of Accounting Textbooks: An Indonesian Perspective
Due to the limitations of accounting textbooks, students do not realize a broader potential of accounting can make to society outside a scorekeeping practice ascribing priority to shareholders.

It seemed they could not get away from having to use the text if they were to succeed in the course. Therefore, the intellectual source of these students was solely the neoclassical economic paradigm, the primary emphasis of which is satisfying the materialist desires of shareholders. This was evident in the perspectives of both students of conventional and Islamic accounting programs
