| Research Abstract |
Management turnover plays an important role in the discipline for managers, while it is known that management turnover could induce earnings management. In particular, it is said that outgoing (incoming) managers have an incentive to increase (decrease) earnings. This paper investigates earnings management surrounding management turnover.The results indicate that
(1) outgoing managers engage in income-increasing real earnings management, but not engage in accounting earnings management
(2) income-increasing real earnings management by outgoing managers is restrained with the manager’s shareholding
(3) incoming managers carry out income-decreasing earnings management in the case of forced turnover, and
(4) income-decreasing accounting earnings management by incoming managers improves the firm’s future earnings.
