The World Price of Earnings OpacityWe analyze financial statements from 34 countries for the period 1984–1998 to construct a panel data set measuring three dimensions of reported accounting earnings for each country: earnings aggressiveness, loss avoidance, and earnings smoothing.

Residual-Income-Based Valuation Predicts Future Stock Returns: Evidence on Mispricing vs. Risk ExplanationsFrankel and Lee (1998) show that the value-to-price ratio (Vf/P) predicts future abnormal returns for up to three years, where Vf is an estimate of fundamental value based on a residual income valuation framework operationalized using analyst earnings forecasts.

An Empirical Investigation of an Incentive Plan that Includes Nonfinancial Performance MeasuresRecent studies report an increasing use of nonfinancial measures such as product quality, customer satisfaction, and market share in performance measurement and compensation systems.

The Importance of Reporting Incentives: Earnings Management in European Private and Public FirmsThis paper examines how capital market pressures and institutional factors shape firms' incentives to report earnings that reflect economic performance. To isolate the effects of reporting incentives, we exploit the fact that, within the European Union, privately held corporations face the same accounting standards as publicly traded companies because accounting regulation is based on lega... ...

The Capital Market Consequences of Language Barriers in the Conference Calls of Non-U.S. FirmsABSTRACT
We examine how language barriers affect the capital market reaction to information disclosures. Using transcripts from non-U.S. firms' English-language conference calls, we find that the calls of firms in countries with greater language barriers are more likely to contain non-plain English and erroneous expressions. For non-U.S. firms that h... ...
