Tiivistelmä: | While the time series literature in accounting almost unanimously suggests that annual accrual earnings follow a submartingale or similar process, the explanations for such behavior are virtually non-existent. This study contrasts the time series properties of accrual-based income variables with their direct cash-based counterparts at three different levels of an income statement. The main conclusion is that the accrual accounting system plays a crucial role in preserving the submartingale tendency in annual income numbers at the operating and net income levels. |
