Abstract

Earnings management refers to the practice where companies manipulate financial statements to alter their true economic condition to achieve certain objectives. Earnings management impacts the quality of a company's financial reporting and market efficiency. It is closely related to factors such as fiduciary responsibility, corporate tax burden, relational transactions, internal controls, litigation risk, and CEO characteristics. The main methods include earnings manipulation, real activity earnings management, and accrual-based earnings management. Engaging in earnings management negatively affects the authenticity and reliability of a company's financial statements and information disclosure. Therefore, companies should improve internal control and supervision mechanisms to reduce the likelihood of adverse impacts.
