| Abstract: | It is well known that the market has information relevant for the prediction of earnings in advance of the financial year to which they pertain. This information is not reflected in models which relate contemporaneous security returns to earnings. Thus earnings response coefficients estimated using such models will be downward biased. This paper, extending the work of Kothari, shows theoretically how this bias can be mitigated by including leading prices in the price-earnings model. |
