| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
I first investigate whether the management earning forecast is a benchmark on the CEO's annual bonuses.I find a negative significant effect on CEO's annual bonuses when the firm misses the management earning forecast.Next I investigate whether the management earning forecast ratchets.As a result,I find that the management earning forecast ratchets.
Based on the ratchet effect of the management earning forecast,I hypothesize that firms make income-decreasing earnings management when positive earnings innovations are expected to transitory.I find that firms with transitory earnings make income-decreasing earnings management to offset transitory earnings surprises to avoid increasing the next period's management earnings forecasts. In addition,I find the level of the next period's management earnings forecasts of the firms with transitory earnings, making income-decreasing earnings management are easy to achieve.
