| Abstract: | This paper demonstrates how a manager's concern for reputation can distort reports made to superiors about an investment project and hence, can affect a firm's capital budgeting decisions. In the first setting examined, a manager is assumed to know more than her superior about both her personal abilities and the prospects of a project under consideration. A manager's ability has two dimensions - ability to forecast a project's return's and productivity. |
