本文将应计项目操控和真实活动操控纳入分析框架,研究上市公司发生总经理变更后的盈余管理行为。理论分析表明,新任总经理在上任当年利用应计项目负向盈余管理可"一举多得",利用真实活动进行盈余管理却可能会"损公不利己";而在后续年度利用真实活动正向盈余管理虽会"损公"却可"利己"。以沪深A股上市公司2005-2010年数据为样本进行的实证检验结果显示,在总经理变更当年,上市公司存在利用应计项目调减利润的盈余管理行为,但不存在利用真实活动的盈余管理行为。在新任总经理上任后第一、二个完整会计年度,上市公司存在利用应计项目和真实活动调增利润的盈余管理行为。总经理变更当年,如果董事长也发生变更,则上市公司在变更当年利用应计项目调减利润的程度更大,在变更后第一、二个完整会计年度利用应计项目和真实活动调增利润的程度也显著更大。
本文將應計項目操控和真實活動操控納入分析框架,研究上市公司髮生總經理變更後的盈餘管理行為。理論分析錶明,新任總經理在上任噹年利用應計項目負嚮盈餘管理可"一舉多得",利用真實活動進行盈餘管理卻可能會"損公不利己";而在後續年度利用真實活動正嚮盈餘管理雖會"損公"卻可"利己"。以滬深A股上市公司2005-2010年數據為樣本進行的實證檢驗結果顯示,在總經理變更噹年,上市公司存在利用應計項目調減利潤的盈餘管理行為,但不存在利用真實活動的盈餘管理行為。在新任總經理上任後第一、二箇完整會計年度,上市公司存在利用應計項目和真實活動調增利潤的盈餘管理行為。總經理變更噹年,如果董事長也髮生變更,則上市公司在變更噹年利用應計項目調減利潤的程度更大,在變更後第一、二箇完整會計年度利用應計項目和真實活動調增利潤的程度也顯著更大。

Bringing accruals and real activities earnings management into the framework of analysis, this paper empirically tests the effect of executive turnover on earnings management. Theoretical analysis suggest that in the year of general manager turnover, the new general manager uses accruals to manage earnings downward can achieve many things at One stroke, while if he uses real activities to manage earnings upward or downward in the year of general manager turn- over will harm others without benefiting itself any way. In the follow- ing year of general manager turnover, if new general manager uses real activities to manage earnings upwards will harm others but it can benefit itself. Using a sample of Shanghai and Shenzhen A Share list- ed companies between 2005 and 2010, our paper empirically exam- ines the relationship between general manager turnover and earnings management in the year of general manager turnover as well as the following year of general manager turnover. Following are our main research findings: The listed companies use accruals but not real ac- tivities to manage earnings downward in the year of general manager turnover, which is consistent with our hypothesis. We also find out that in addition to the reversing accruals, the listed companies also use real activities to manage earnings upward in the following year of general manager turnover, which is also completely consistent with our hypothesis. Our further studies show that the concurrent turnover of chairman and general manager will result in more accruals but not real activities earnings management downward in the year of general manager turnover. The concurrent turnover of chairman and general manager will result in more accruals as well as real activities earn- ings management upward in the following year of general manager turnover, which is also completely consistent with our hypothesis. Our findings enrich the studies on the relationship between executive turnover and earnings management and contribute to the literature by showing that besides accruals; the new executives also manipulate real activities in earnings management.
