【7月4日】【会计学院学术论坛】Stakeholder Orientation and Accounting Conservatism: Evidence from a Natural Experiment

发布日期:2018-07-03

讲座人:Ke Wang

讲座主题:Stakeholder Orientation and Accounting Conservatism: Evidence from a Natural Experiment

摘要:We examine the effect of the staggered adoption of state-level constituency statutes on stakeholder demand for accounting conservatism. The adoption of state-level constituency statutes allows directors to consider stakeholder interests when making business decisions, thereby exogenously increasing a firm’s stakeholder orientation. Using a difference-in-differences analysis, we find that the increase in stakeholder orientation due to the adoption of constituency statutes leads to a significant decrease in accounting conservatism. In other words, as firms pay more attention to stakeholder interests, accounting conservatism decreases. Our cross-sectional analyses show a more pronounced decrease in accounting conservatism for firms with ex ante higher demand for conservatism from stakeholders as proxied by greater transient institutional investor ownership and lower liquidation values and for firms with more powerful stakeholders who have the ability to influence a firm’s financial reporting policy ex ante. In addition, we find the reduction in risk taking and the appointment of stakeholder-oriented directors as two potential channels through which the adoption of constituency statutes decreases stakeholders’ demand for conservatism.
