Tiivistelmä: | The study examines the relative value relevance of R & D reporting in France, Germany, and United Kingdom and the USA. France and the UK allow conditional capitalization of R&D costs. The relative value relevance of R&D reporting under different R&D accounting standards are compared while controlling for the reporting environment. Test results suggest that the level of R&D reporting has significant effect on the association of equity price with accounting earnings and book value in Germany and the USA, , and the allocation of R&D costs between capitalization and expense further increases the value relevance of R&D reporting in France and the UK (capitalizing countries), including firms in the US softaware industry. |
