| Research Abstract |
This study focuses on the value relevance of tax information, and reveals following three points. First, I find that managers use the valuation allowance for deferred tax assets to meet their forecast earnings. Second, I show that the large positive (negative) book-tax differences are caused by the income smoothing behavior. Third, my research indicates that Japanese stock market reflects such tax-related information as an indicator of earnings quality.
