I also hypothesize that the regulation of upper limit on the amount of investment in China by Taiwanese government can mitigate the negative relationship between earnings quality and investment in china.Consistent with my hypothesis, I find that the intensity of investment in China is negatively related to earnings quality. I also find that the upper limit on investment in China mitigate the negative association between investment in China and earnings quality.口試委員審定書 i謝 ii要 iiibstract ivontent vables vii INTRODUCTION 1 LITERATURE REVIEW 4.1 Earnings Management and Agency Problem 4.1.1 Earnings Management and contracting 4.1.2 Estimation of discretionary accruals 6.2 Agency problem and investments 10.2.1 Organizational Complexity 10.2.2 Organization Structure of Investment in Different Countries 13 INSTITUTION 16.1 Politics 16.2 History of Economic Policy Toward Mainland China 17.3 Current Economic Policy Toward Mainland China 20 HYPOTHESIS DEVELOPMENTS 22.1 Investments in China and Earnings Quality 22.2 Upper limit on investment in China 23 RESEARCH DESIGN 25.1 Sample selection 25.2 Measures of Earnings Quality：Discretionary Accrual 25.3 Regression Model 26.3.1 Model 1：Investment in China and Earnings Quality 26.3.2 Model 2：Upper limit on investment in China and Earnings Management 28 EMPIRICAL RESULTS 30.1 Descriptive Statistics 30.2 Correlation 30.3 Empirical Results for Hypothesis 1. 32.4 Empirical Results for Hypothesis 2. 33 Additional Tests 35.1 Control for Corporate Governance 35 CONCLUSION 38EFERENCE 39application/pdf580624 bytesapplication/pdfen-US盈餘品質裁決性應計數資訊不對稱投資大陸投資大陸上限規定Earnings qualityDiscretionary accrualsInformation asymmetryhttp://ntur.lib.ntu.edu.tw/bitstream/246246/180004/1/ntu-98-R96722040-1.pdf
