摘要
本文研究了2003年中国上市公司的会计变更行为,发现会计政策变更倾向于调高利润,而会计估计变更和会计差错更正则更多体现为调低利润,同时,3种会计变更公司的财务特征体现出了一定的差异,尤其会计估计变更和会计差错更正公司的负债比率较高,短期偿债能力较差。另外,盈利能力和现金流量情况均较差。3种会计变更公司的盈余管理行为与其财务特征具有一定的关系。总体说来,公司的盈利能力越大,会有更多的同方向盈余管理(高估的应计项目);公司的经营活动现金净流量等解释了反向的盈余管理,说明盈利的公司和现金流量较好的公司也会进行较多的盈余管理,甚至还采用了会计变更的方法,这些都是中国上市公司与西方上市公司不同的特征。
