The true and accurate financial accounting report should be prepared according to the account book records and other relevant accounting materials that are completely registered and verified, and it is generated on the basis of the consolidation of a large number of accounting materials. According to different classification standards, there are mainly the following two cases. [1]
1. From the perspective of production process
From the process of production, we can divide the false financial accounting report into the false financial accounting report caused by the distortion of accounting events and the false financial accounting report caused by the distortion of accounting treatment process. The distortion of accounting events refers to the fact that accounting events fail to truly reflect objective economic activities, which is what we call "false accounting" in accounting affairs. Distortion in the accounting process means that the accounting items themselves are true and objective, but they are operated incorrectly in the accounting process. Thus, false financial accounting reports are caused. This is the so-called "false accounting".
2. From its relationship with people
From its relationship with people, we can divide false financial accounting reports into subjective intention and subjective intention:
Subjective intention refers to the accountants who control the basic accounting information for the local interests of the accounting entity itself or related entities. Regardless of the interests of the users of accounting information and the requirements for the authenticity of accounting information, deliberately preparing false accounting information causes the reported information to be inconsistent with the actual information, such as account inconsistency, account statement inconsistency, account reality inconsistency, etc.
Subjective unconsciousness refers to the inability of accounting information controllers to understand policies and regulations due to their professional quality, business level and other issues. False accounting information caused by improper application or wrong accounting treatment.
No matter the accounting information distortion caused by subjective intention or subjective intention, the financial accounting report generated on this basis can not be true, and the false financial accounting report is thus generated.

In the face of the complicated means of falsifying financial accounting reports, we must pay great attention and vigilance, pay great attention to comprehensive, systematic and comprehensive geological exploration and analysis of the internal links of economic activities reflected in financial accounting reports, and improve the ability to identify false financial accounting reports. [2]
1、 Focus on deleting the moisture in the areas where accounting fraud is high
1. Delete non-performing assets and calculate enterprise profits to see financial quality
The essence of non-performing assets is the expenses and losses that have been incurred and need to be amortized and treated. It is not a real economic resource that can produce economic benefits. Such as deferred assets, deferred expenses, pending property losses, long-term debt receivable, inventory losses, investment losses, etc. Many enterprises have become a means of adjusting profits and increasing assets by avoiding the vicious expansion of assets, which has hidden many crises. We can make a judgment through dynamic analysis. If the annual figures increase more than the beginning of the year, there may be a situation of saving money through non-performing assets; If the growth rate is relatively fast over the years, the profitability of the enterprise should be carefully judged. We can also make a judgment through structural analysis. If non-performing assets account for a large proportion of total assets, there may be profit adjustment through non-performing assets; If the proportion of non-performing assets in total assets continues to grow, it is necessary to carefully and truly judge the sustainability of the enterprise.
2. Delete related party transactions to calculate enterprise profits and see operating capacity
Related party transactions refer to the transfer of resources or obligations between related parties. Because one party has the ability to directly or indirectly control, jointly control or significantly influence the other party, unfair transactions are very likely to occur in connected transactions. In order to ensure the income level of one party, the phenomenon of buying at a low price and selling at a high price often occurs in the transaction. Losses are digested overnight, profits are generated, and the asset structure is reasonable, and the operating capacity is improved. We can calculate the profit of the enterprise through the income and expenditure generated by the Henan related transactions, and judge the operating capacity of the enterprise. We can also explore and analyze whether the transaction price and settlement method of the related transactions are fair and reasonable. Or analyze the profitability of the enterprise after the unreasonable price in the related party transactions.
3. Delete debt on account and calculate enterprise profit
The debt on account includes the payables that the enterprise cannot repay on account for a long time, and other payables that the enterprise falsely listed assets and expenses corresponding to which are not required to repay. We can analyze the aging of accounts payable, especially the liabilities that have been listed for a long time and have no inflow or outflow, to see whether they are unable to repay the accounts payable and have not been cleared up; We can conduct dynamic analysis on other payables. If it continues to increase, it may be possible to adjust profits through other payables; We can also analyze the change of the proportion of other payables in current liabilities. If it continues to increase, it may be possible to adjust profits through other payables; We can also analyze the details of other payables. If freight, rent, etc. are abnormal, there may be false debt.
4. Delete the capital reserve and calculate the owner's equity to see the asset scale
Asset reserve is a component of the owner's equity of an enterprise. Generally speaking, its proportion is not very large. However, some enterprises often resort to fraud in order to falsely increase their net assets. We can make a judgment through the analysis of the composition of the capital reserve project that if there is asset evaluation appreciation or the appreciation is too high, we can falsely increase the net assets of the enterprise through false evaluation without the conditions for legal asset evaluation.
2、 Anomaly identification fraud found in the analysis of correlation
The balance sheet, income statement and cash flow statement reflect the financial situation, operating results and cash flow of the enterprise from different angles, sides and levels. There are internal links between them. It is an organic whole. We can find abnormalities in the comparative analysis of various items in the statement through the comparison between statements, Identify accounting fraud.
1. Calculate the proportion of various asset items in the total assets, discount the quality level of enterprise assets, and identify false assets and profits.
If the proportion of net loss of assets to be disposed, liquidation of fixed assets, expenses to be held, and deferred assets is large, the enterprise may falsely list assets, falsely increase profits, and cover up losses. If the inventory remains high, the enterprise may have raw materials, and the inventory of goods is not transferred out of the city.
2. Calculate the profit rate of main business, analyze the profit level of main business, and identify false profits
If the profit rate of the main business is too high or too low, beyond the reasonable limit, there may be the possibility of overstating or concealing the income, reducing or increasing the cost falsely.
3. Calculate the proportion of each item in the total profit, judge the stability and reliability of the enterprise's profitability, and identify false profits.
If the ratio of operating profit structure is low and the proportion of investment income, subsidy income and non operating income is high, it may be possible to improve the company's profit level through government subsidies or related transactions, especially one-off asset disposal gains and losses. It may also be to record the operating income Non operating income To avoid turnover tax
4. Focus Balance Sheet Comparison with income statement
The balance sheet and profit and loss statement are static and dynamic, reflecting the same thing in the whole process of enterprise production and operation from different aspects. There is an inherent inevitable connection between them:
if Balance Sheet If it reflects that the enterprise has foreign investment, but there is no investment income in the income statement, it may be that the capital is not real or the income is hidden;
If the balance sheet reflects a small amount of external investment of the enterprise, but there is a large investment income in the income statement, it may be a false increase in profits;
If the current net increase of accounts receivable and other accounts receivable in the balance sheet is large, and the income and cost ratio in the income statement is unbalanced, it may be that the income is inflated by using transactions.
If the current net increase of accounts payable and other payables in the balance sheet is large, the net increase of Qifeng inventory is small, and the proportion of income and cost in the income statement is not reasonable, then the cost may be inflated through transactions.
If the bank borrowings on the balance sheet are large and the financial expenses in the income statement are small, it may be that interest expenses are not calculated.
In addition, although the balance sheet uses the property method to calculate profits, and the income statement uses the profit and loss method to calculate profits, the undistributed profits and the increase in surplus reserves in the two statements should be equal. If they are not equal, they should be analyzed in depth.
5. Focus on income statement and Cash Flow Statement Comparison of
The income statement is based on Accrual basis Reflect on the basis of Business performance The cash flow statement is based on Cash basis Reflecting the production and operation activities of the enterprise. Although the principles are different, the objects of Xiaying are the same. There is an inevitable connection between the two. If the cash flow generated from the enterprise's operation is different from Main business profit , current flow of enterprise investment activities and investment income Cash flow from financing activities If there is a great contrast with the total profits and the duration is very long, there may be false increase or false decrease in profits.
6. Pay attention to the comparison between the cash flow statement and the balance sheet
The cash flow statement of customs and silk reflects the information of cash and cash equivalent logistics personnel and outflows in a certain accounting period. The balance sheet reflects the distribution of assets, liabilities and owner's equity at a certain point in the inventory industry. There is an internal connection between the two tables. If Cash Flow Statement Cash and Cash equivalents The net increase is inconsistent with the sum of the net increase of cash, bank deposits and short-term investments in the balance sheet. If the payment ability and debt paying ability reflected by the cash flow are inconsistent with the current ratio and quick ratio calculated in the balance sheet, then there may be false assets.
There are many ways to identify false financial accounting reports, which requires us to think three-dimensional and multi-dimensional.

1. Pursuing economic benefits and evading taxes is one of the main reasons for producing false financial accounting reports [1]

4. Striving for listing qualification is also one of the reasons for false financial reports
Many listed companies in China are listed in packaging. There are already problems when they are listed, and they are motivated by fraud. Sometimes it is forged to meet the needs of the secondary market.
For example, Chengdu Hongguang Industrial Co., Ltd. fabricated false profits in 1998. The case of obtaining listing qualification by fraud was under the guidance of the company's leaders. It was specifically organized and implemented by Chen Sentinel, Vice Minister of Finance Department. They define the depreciation method by Double-declining-balance method Change to straight-line method, falsely issue VAT invoices and falsely report profits of 108.05 million yuan. Make Hongguang Industrial go public smoothly.
