How much of this submission has been generated by AI?

0%
Caution: Percentage may not indicate academic misconduct. Review required.

It is essential to understand the limitations of AI detection before making decisions


about a student's work. We encourage you to learn more about Turnitin's AI detection
capabilities before using the tool.
of qualifying text in this submission has been determined to be
generated by AI.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does the percentage mean?


The percentage shown in the AI writing detection indicator and in the AI writing report is the amount of qualifying text within the
submission that Turnitin's AI writing detection model determines was generated by AI.

Our testing has found that there is a higher incidence of false positives when the percentage is less than 20. In order to reduce the
likelihood of misinterpretation, the AI indicator will display an asterisk for percentages less than 20 to call attention to the fact that
the score is less reliable.

However, the final decision on whether any misconduct has occurred rests with the reviewer/instructor. They should use the
percentage as a means to start a formative conversation with their student and/or use it to examine the submitted assignment in
greater detail according to their school's policies.

How does Turnitin's indicator address false positives?


Our model only processes qualifying text in the form of long-form writing. Long-form writing means individual sentences contained in paragraphs that make up a
longer piece of written work, such as an essay, a dissertation, or an article, etc. Qualifying text that has been determined to be AI-generated will be highlighted blue
on the submission text.

Non-qualifying text, such as bullet points, annotated bibliographies, etc., will not be processed and can create disparity between the submission highlights and the
percentage shown.

What does 'qualifying text' mean?


Sometimes false positives (incorrectly flagging human-written text as AI-generated), can include lists without a lot of structural variation, text that literally repeats
itself, or text that has been paraphrased without developing new ideas. If our indicator shows a higher amount of AI writing in such text, we advise you to take that
into consideration when looking at the percentage indicated.

In a longer document with a mix of authentic writing and AI generated text, it can be difficult to exactly determine where the AI writing begins and original writing
ends, but our model should give you a reliable guide to start conversations with the submitting student.

Disclaimer
Our AI writing assessment is designed to help educators identify text that might be prepared by a generative AI tool. Our AI writing assessment may not always be accurate (it may misidentify
both human and AI-generated text) so it should not be used as the sole basis for adverse actions against a student. It takes further scrutiny and human judgment in conjunction with an
organization's application of its specific academic policies to determine whether any academic misconduct has occurred.

VI. CHALLENGES AND OPPORTUNITIES THAT ARE BEING FACED BY IFAC-


VAA AND CPA
In the evolving Vietnamese market, the VAA encounters several challenges. Firstly,
Vietnam's tax laws and regulations are incompletely intended and synchronized with
international standards, which causes inconsistency and a lack of transparency in the
framing of legal documents, severely affecting the professionalism of the internal
economic sector (Tran, 2022). Secondly, the VAA also reports that while many accounting
and auditing human resources are confident in their knowledge for their performance, up
to two-thirds of accounting and auditing graduates lack the ability to meet the
requirements of employers in a variety of areas (IFRS Việt Nam, 2020). However,
Vietnam is attracting a growing number of foreign-invested enterprises (FIEs) (H. V.,
2024), which assists VAA in developing expertise in accordance with IFRS standards -
a set of accounting rules currently used by public companies in 168 jurisdictions (Palmer,
2022), contributing to strengthening its influence and reputation.

CPA Australia faces a dual picture of challenges and possibilities within the accounting
profession in Australia. One of the major difficulties is the rapid rise of automation and AI,
which are regarded as talent strategies by many businesses (AICPA & CIMA Insights,
2023). Therefore, recruiters find it difficult to find and retain experienced and
technologically competent employees to align with the firm’s strategic growth objectives
and enhance productivity (CPA Australia, 2023). In addition, this industry also contends
with cyber risks, which will account for 43% in 2024 (Aley, 2024). However, CPA has
embraced their technological advancements and promoted new technologies such as
blockchain or cyber-security information, aiming to get more opportunities to be at the
forefront of technological adoption in accounting (CPA Australia, n.d.).

VII. VIRTUES THAT IFAC-VAA AND CPA HAVE EMBRACED TO MAINTAIN THEIR
STAFF, MEMBERS AND THE WIDER COMMUNITY
According to Rohilesh (2018, p. 17), there are a lot of gray areas in the evolving world. It
is believed that living by the moral virtues would result in greater pleasure and self-
esteem. Therefore, VAA and CPA Australia have embraced a variety of qualities for their
members and staff to prioritize fostering a respectful and healthy environment. (Code of
Conduct | IFAC, n.d.) (APES 110 Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants Part A,
n.d.)

● Truth: In both organizations, members need to be honest, accountable, and


straight-forward in all tasks and business relationships, which serves as a core
value. They are required to provide truthful information and readily admit their
mistakes in order to build trust.
● Cultivation of knowledge and reflection: VAA and CPA Australia constantly
encourage their members to enhance their knowledge and step outside their
comfort zone to meet current professional requirement and express their value
convincingly to organizations
● Senses control: Professionalism is a virtue that all companies strive for, described
as being transparent and respectful of the business environment, including legal
and human rights, and serving the public interest in order to boost the
organization's image.
● Non-violence: VAA and CPA Australia place a strong emphasis on ethical
conduct. They strictly respect client confidentiality, avoid conflict of interest as
much as possible, and prioritize stakeholders' welfare.

VIII. HOW IFAC-VAA AND CPA HAVE EMBRACED SOCIAL AND


ENVIRONMENTAL CHALLENGES

CPA Australia's action in dealing with social and environmental challenges is better
than VAA's.

VAA has significantly contributed to the Vietnamese accounting and economy. As


a member of IFAC, VAA has to follow SMO, which supports the growth of
Vietnamese accounting (IFAC, n.d.). VAA has boosted the quality and ethics of
accounting professionals (VAA, 2018). Moreover, the standards created by VAA
grow transparency within the businesses and reduce misbehavior (VAA, 2018).
Therefore, Vietnam has become reliable and attractive to invest in, helping to
increase FDI and develop the Vietnamese economy. As VAA did not have any
activity in protecting the environment, it should expand its sustainable actions.

CPA Australia has implemented many actions to enhance its sustainability. In


social contributions activities, CPA has improved the quality and ethics of its
members through CPD and APES 110 Code of Ethics (CPA Australia, n.d.-a; n.d.-
b). CPA has policies to protect whistleblowers, crucial to preventing misbehavior
(CPA Australia, n.d.-c). It leads to a trustworthy market to invest in and economic
growth. Moreover, CPA Australia and its members signed the commitment to
reaching net zero greenhouse gas (CPA Australia, 2020). In short, CPA Australia
has noticeably contributed to the growth of Australian society and the environment.

IX. SIGNIFICANT CHALLENGES FACING ACCOUNTING IN VIETNAM AND IN


AUSTRALIA

Vietnam: Adapting IFRS

IFRS is better than VAS in quick adaptation to financial changes (PwC, 2021). The
Vietnamese MOF will change from VAS to IFRS in 2025 (PwC, 2021). When the
changes happen, Vietnamese accounting faces problems modifying the basic
framework from VAS to IFRS, leading to numerous organizational changes, such
as changes in policy and workforce. The worker without knowledge about IFRS
would cost the body to train them again. The movement is a chance for Vietnamese
accounting to integrate with the globe, but it can cause damage in the short term.

Australia: Leaking sensitive accounting data in the rapid growth

The risk of disclosing sensitive accounting data has threatened many institutions
in Australia (ASD, 2023, p.1). If cybercrimes disclosed sensitive accounting data,
businesses would have a financial loss and decrease competitive ability, leading
to economic crises and a drop in FDI in large areas. Although disclosing
accounting data is vital to show transparency, the leak of accounting documents
required by IFRS is sufficient.

X. EVALUATE THE OVERALL STRENGTHS AND WEAKNESSES OF


ACCOUNTING TO ITS MEMBERS AND THE PUBLIC
Regarding IFAC-VAA, first of all, Vietnam's accounting legislative and institutional
structure has incorporated IFRS worldwide standards, indicating the numerous changes
and advancements the country's accounting sector is experiencing. These movements
have helped VAA become more integrated with international accounting standards
resulting in the increase in the organization's credibility. Not only enhancing the reputation
of the organization, applying IFRS helps Vietnam attract foreign investors, contributing to
the country's economic development. Besides the above developments, Vietnam's
accounting industry still has limitations, specifically the lack of consistency in reforming
the legal framework related to accounting activities (Dung, 2023). This affects the
operational effectiveness of VAA and puts pressure on VAA to constantly work on with its
operations to improve organizational efficiency as well as train its employees to be
equipped with up-to-date knowledge and timely information. Another limitation for VAA is
the qualified human resources as according to Ms.Dung (2023), the shortage of highly
qualified professionals, especially those who are adept with international standards and
practices, is a significant concern.

Considering CPA, Australia has applied IFRS in the country's accounting system since
2005 (IFRS Foundation, 2017). This gap results in the advantages of CPA as having more
experiences in practicing accounting with IFRS standards and being more well-versed in
navigating the complex regulatory environment. This makes CPA a prestigious
association member not only within Australia but also an attractive and trustworthy
organization to foreign investors. Despite the advantage of early adoption of IFRS and
applying AI in operation, CPA also faces the same difficulties as VAA, in terms of lack of
qualified human resources for industry requirements (technological ability, ESG
awareness…). Moreover, CPA is also having difficulty applying technology to operations,
specifically cyber risk, which can reveal confidential business information and affect the
company's profits.

XI. Summarise discussion for the Economics References Committee of the


Finance Minister in Vietnam and provide conclusions based on your overall
findings.
In summary, while CPA can be a role model for VAA to follow in terms of being
experienced in applying IFRS and being conscious of pursuing ESG goals, VAA's efforts
towards adapting to the international standards have shown the importance of innovating
policies and promoting the confidence of foreign investors. In addition, applying
technology to enhance accuracy and effectiveness in Australian accounting operations is
something worth learning, however, due to the risk of disclosing confidential data from
applying technology in Australia, Vietnam needs to invest more in developing technology
and information security as well as having SOPs for business to follow strictly to prevent
information disclosure. Both VAA and CPA are facing a shortage of human resources
who are qualified in terms of specialized knowledge, technology skills and ESG
awareness. This can not only be solved by accounting organizations such as VAA or
CPA, but requires joint efforts in innovating education and raising people's awareness to
have high-quality human resources to meet the needs of the society.
