| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The purpose of this research project is to investigate the costs and benefits of aggregated accounting information. The central results of this project are as follows. First, I identify the conditions under which the manager rationally withholds segment information and achieves higher social welfare. In a setting where the manager is concerned about the current stock price, disclosing more disaggregated information to the stock market does not necessarily lead to more efficient monitoring. This result implies that the aggregation of accounting information is desirable depending on circumstances. Second, I propose the new method to investigate the relative information content of the components of profit, for example, operating income and financial income. In addition, I provide basic findings using accounting and return data in Japan.
