# The Accounting Review Workflow (tar-workflow)

## Overview

This is the router. It does not replace any specialized skill; it tells you **which tar-* skill to use right now** for your TAR manuscript.

Default assumption: unless the user says otherwise, treat the target as **The Accounting Review (TAR)** — the flagship journal of the American Accounting Association (AAA, aaahq.org), covering archival/empirical and analytical accounting across financial accounting, capital markets, auditing and assurance, management accounting, taxation, and accounting information systems. TAR's stated policy is explicitly **open to all rigorous research methods** and names no preferred methodology; the single overriding publication criterion is the **significance of the contribution to the accounting literature**. In practice the published mix is dominated by large-sample archival/empirical work, alongside a substantial experimental stream and analytical/theory papers (待核实 as a characterization, not policy). The action editor and a minimum of two reviewers will ask "what do we learn about accounting that we did not know?" as hard as "is identification clean?"

> Editorial team: Senior Editor **Mohan Venkatachalam (Duke, Fuqua)** — sitting since June 2026, succeeding Kathryn Kadous (Emory); named Lead Editors (Hribar, Maydew, Mittendorf, Rennekamp) handle assignments, decision letters, desk rejections, and appeals; Ad hoc Editors cover specialized topics/methods. Submission fee ($285 member / $680 non-member, re-verified 2026-06-23) and full roster — 待核实; confirm on the official AAA pages.

## When to trigger

- "What should I do next?" with a half-built TAR manuscript
- You have a clean archival sample and a result but no sharp accounting contribution
