摘要:This paper studies the effect of leadership on the ability to promote cooperation in teams through the performance measurement system. Performance measurement of teams can promote cooperation by rewarding team success, or can emphasize and reward individual success, by promoting competition via relative performance evaluation. In order to highlight the tradeoff between individual and group incentives, I consider the impact of leadership, where one agent with private productivity information ac...

摘要:In this paper we investigate how incentives affect managers' input resource expenditure decisions and how firms make equity grant decisions considering managerial behavior. Focusing on selling, general, and administrative (SG&A) expenditure, we first document that SG&A expenditure creates future value that varies across firms and industries. We hypothesize and find that new equity incentives lead to an increase in SG&A expenditure in companies where SG&A creates a high future value. The extent...

摘要:We examine the effects of audit quality on earnings management and cost of equity capital for two groups of Chinese firms: state-owned enterprises (SOEs) and non-state-owned enterprises (NSOEs). The differences in the nature of the ownership, agency relations and bankruptcy risks lead SOEs to have weaker incentives than NSOEs to engage in earnings management. As a result, the effect of audit quality in reducing earnings management will be greater for NSOEs than for SOEs. In addition, investors...

摘要:This study examines the relation between technology-enabled information system integration (ISI), a mechanism for information sharing in an alliance, and partner trust in the context of how the system's information is used for control and coordination purposes. Prior research suggests both increasing and decreasing effects of ISI on trust and provides few insights regarding the mechanisms by which integrated information systems affect trust. In this study, we develop and empirically test a mod...

摘要:This paper uses a mix of field research and survey methods to provide evidence on the existence of frugality as a company characteristic. We define corporate frugality as an enduring corporate trait of consistent, disciplined management of spending to achieve long term strategic objectives and sustainable profits. Drawing upon established scales of frugality in the literature on consumer psychology, we develop and validate a multi-item measure of corporate frugality. Like individual frugality,...

摘要:Our study investigates the relationship between auditor-provided nonaudit services (NAS) and financial restatements. We extend previous research by distinguishing recurring and nonrecurring NAS when examining the association between NAS and restatements. We make the distinction between recurring and nonrecurring engagements for each of the three types of NAS: tax, audit related, and other. Our results indicate that recurring tax services are the only NAS negatively associated with restatements...

摘要:We investigate enabling performance measurement systems (PMS) in operations, that is, systems that are perceived by employees as assisting with their daily work. We contrast enabling PMS with those that are primarily a control device by senior management. Previous research in accounting suggests that the development of enabling PMS requires room for experimentation by users, as well as cross-functional knowledge integration. How this can be done has received less attention. Building on the new...

摘要:This paper reviews, synthesizes, and critiques the capital market literature examining trading volume around earnings announcements and other financial reports. Our purposes are to assess what we have learned from examining trading volume around these announcements and to suggest directions for future research. We conclude that researchers have yet to realize the potential Beaver identified in 1968 for trading volume to yield unique insights regarding the nature of earnings announcements and o...
