金融关联对上市公司盈余管理的影响研究——代理成本的中介作用

以2013-2016年A股上市公司为样本，采用Bootstrap法检验金融关联对盈余管理的影响以及股权、债权和控制权三类代理成本在两者关系中的中介作用。研究发现：金融关联对应计盈余管理和真实盈余管理均存在着显著的负向影响；股权代理成本及债权代理成本在金融关联与应计盈余管理之间起到部分中介作用，控制权代理成本的中介作用不显著；三类代理成本在金融关联与真实盈余管理之间的中介作用不显著。

A Study of the Effect of Financial Connections on Earnings Management of Listed Companies-The Mediating Role of Agency Costs

Taking China's A-share listed companies from 2013 to 2016 as research samples, the paper adopted Bootstrap method to examine the effect of financial connections on earnings management, and the mediating effect of the three kinds of agency costs of equity, debt and control on the relationship of the two sides. The study found:There are significant negative impacts of financial connections on both accruals and real earnings management; between financial connections and accrual-based earnings management the equity and debt agency costs play a partial intermediary role, meanwhile the role of the agency costs of control is nothing special; between financial connections and real earnings management the mediating role of the three kinds agency costs is not obvious.
