Abstract: | This article studies the relationship between misreporting and CEO compensation contracts. The authors find that the sensitivity of a CEOs option portfolio to stock price is positively linked to the tendency to misreport. Other long-term incentives, such as equity, restricted stock or bonuses dont seem to have any significant impact on the propensity to misreport. |
