Abstract

Este trabajo examina la relación entre el coste de la deuda y la calidad de los ajustes por devengo en una amplia muestra de empresas españolas mayoritariamente no cotizadas. La relación inversa entre ambas variables obtenida por Francis et al. (2005) en un contexto de grandes compañías cotizadas no se aprecia al restringir la muestra a pequeñas y medianas empresas. Ya sea por una cuestión de confianza o debido a los costes fijos que conlleva el análisis de las cuentas anuales, las entidades financieras aplican habitualmente a las PYMES tecnologías de crédito en las que la información contenida en los accruals del prestatario queda relegada a un segundo plano.
