讲座内容摘要:

This study investigates whether firms inappropriately capitalize development costs. We argue that capitalization of development costs should be positively associated with R&D outputs, and absence of such association indicates inappropriate implementation of capitalization. Using data from listed firms in China over the period 2007‒2017, we fail to find evidence of inappropriate capitalization of development costs. Capitalization is, in general, positively associated with R&D outputs, and such association is stronger for State-owned Enterprises and qualified High- and New-technology Enterprises. This association can be strengthened by more restrictive scrutiny; however, it can also be weakened when firms are motivated to meet earnings targets and have higher agency costs and financial constraints. Furthermore, results suggest that capitalization of development costs is significantly and positively associated with current and future firm value, and the correlation is strengthening over time. This study adds to the literature by adopting direct R&D outputs to detect inappropriate capitalization of development cost, and by adding some Chinese evidence and sheds some light on the potential risks involved in the implicit R&D accounting policy choice.

本文调查了企业是否会策略的将开发成本资本化。我们认为,开发成本的资本化应该与研发产出呈正相关,缺乏这种关联表明资本化实施不当。使用2007-2017年中国上市公司的数据,我们没有发现开发成本资本化不当的证据。总的来说,资本化与研发产出呈正相关,国有企业和合格的高新技术企业的这种关联更大。可以通过更严格的审查来加强这种联系;然而,当企业有动力实现盈利目标,并且有更高的代理成本和财务约束时,它也可能被削弱。此外,研究结果表明,开发成本的资本化与当前和未来的公司价值显著正相关,并且这种相关性随着时间的推移而增强。本研究通过采用直接研发产出来检测开发成本的资本化,并对隐性研发会计政策选择中涉及的潜在风险提供了一些启示。
