| Tiivistelmä: | Using 1994-1996 data for a sample of Fortune 500 firms, the author estimates a set of simultaneous equations that captures managers' incentives to maintain a desired level of earnings volatility through hedging and accrual management. He finds a significant negative association between derivatives' notional amounts and proxies for the magnitude of discretionary accruals. |
