Abstract

This article deals with earnings management to avoid accounting thresholds. It reviews the literature and the terminology used by researchers (discontinuity, irregularity, and threshold). Then it presents a thresholds typology and proposes a conceptual framework. This framework highlights (1) the direct effect of an extra financial cost namely the "threshold effect" stricto sensu, (2) the moderating effect of psychological factors on managers and investors, and (3) the mediatory effect of managers' anticipations on earnings management to avoid thresholds.
