Abstract:This paper explores the relative use of performance explanations in terms of the internal logic of the financial accounting model, relating (intermediary) accounting effects and categories (accounting explanations) in annual report narratives. Different communicative aspects of accounting explanations are discussed and lead us to qualify accounting explanations as implicitly defensive in nature. the notion of accounting bias is introduced.
