摘要:
Bloomfield, Hodge, Hopkins and Rennekamp (2015) provide evidence that the disaggregation and location of financial statements items (i.e., coordinated presentation) jointly influence credit analysts' profit margin projections and justifications for a credit downgrade decision. The study provides insights as to the effect of multiple presentation attributes on sophisticated user behavior. In this discussion, I position the paper in the earnings presentation effects literature and broadly discuss some of the advantages and disadvantages of conducing ex ante standard-setting research.
