Produktbeschreibung
Performance-based remuneration theoretically is an effective way of aligning the interests of company management with those of shareholders. However, 'earnings management' is a phenomenon that has been well-documented by accounting researchers. Empirical studies suggest that corporate officers who are subject to performance-based remuneration may manage company accounting figures to improve their remuneration.
