Earnings Quality in the IFRS Era: Evidence from Morocco by Oubahou Yassine, Elouafa Khalid, Wali Senda

“…Furthermore, we divided earnings quality into two main dimensions: on the one hand, earnings management, measured by earnings smoothing and earnings management towards small positive amounts; on the other hand, earnings attribute quality, assessed by accruals quality, persistence and predictability of net income and operating cash flows. Findings: The results of the empirical tests can be divided into two categories: On the one hand, the results of tests of the effect of IFRS on earnings management practices as the first measure of earnings quality show that companies use earnings management in the post-IFRS period compared with the pre-IFRS period. …”
