Tiivistelmä:This study examines the effect of firms' decision to capitalize R&D expenditures on the amount of information about future earnings reflected in current stock returns, as captured by the association btw. current year returns and future earnings (FERC). A sample of U.K. firms including both R&D capitalizers and expensers is used. An important feature of this paper's tests is the use of a two-equation system to control for the endogeneity of the accounting choice. It is found that capitalization is associated with higher FERC than expensing.
