tailieunhanh - Reexamination of whether accrual quality is a price factor

In this study, we investigate whether accrual quality is a factor in capital asset pricing. Our analysis consists of two parts. First, we use a panel data regression that controls for cross-section fixed effects to implement the second stage of the Fama-MacBeth regression (Petersen 2009). | http afr.

Our analysis consists of two parts. First we use a panel data regression that controls for cross-section fixed effects to implement the second stage of the Fama-MacBeth regression Petersen 2009 . In the second part we use the Campbell 1991 return decomposition and vector autoregressive model VAR to decompose the two-stage cross-sectional regressions. This allows us to investigate whether accrual quality is a priced factor in terms of the three components of the return which include one-period expected return cash flow news and discount-rate news.

Introduction Whether information risk impacts a firm s cost of equity capital has been a controversial issue in the accounting and finance literature.
