| Research Abstract |
In this research, it is verified how the characteristic of accounting information improves the investing activities of a company by using a stock market model. In particular, two features of accounting information are focused;
(1) quality and
(2) management.
The quality of accounting information is greatly concerned with the easinessof the interpretation of the information by investors. Accounting information may be adjusted through the discretionary investment decisions by managers. As a result of this research, it is found that the investing activities of a company become inefficient when investors cannot interpret the accounting information easily. This result gives a new theoretical interpretation to the role of the accounting information.
