內(nèi)容簡介:
In this study, we examine the association between Enterprise Resources Planning (ERP) and accounting conservatism for a sample of ERP adopters of Chinese publicly listed firms. We hypothesize that ERP adopters have decreased accounting conservatism because ERP systems provide more transparency of information throughout the firm. Meanwhile, cteria paribus, the extent to which ERP systems impact accounting conservatism is related to firms` characteristic, including market-to-book ratio, leverage and size. Our findings support for two assumptions. These results should be of interest to financial statement preparer initially adopting or implementing new versions of ERP applications, auditor serving clients with ERP systems, and regulator overseeing the financial market and consolidation in the ERP industry.
Keywords: ERP systems; Accounting Conservatism; Information Asymmetry; firms` characteristic
