We document substantial differences in the ‘‘popularity’’ of balance sheet dates over 1989-2010, and an increasing preference of June year-ends in recent years. 81% of Australian firms choose June to align with the mandatory tax period, followed by 13% for December and 6% for other months. We find industry membership and firm-level factors play an important role in the choice of fiscal year-ends. There is a strong non-June effect for manufacturing, retail and financial service companies. Non-June year-end firms tend to be larger in size and more profitable, and have less sales growth, lower firm-specific risk and higher buy-and-hold returns over the financial year. Finally, we summarize three popular reasons for Australian firms changing their fiscal year-ends.","PeriodicalId":355519,"journal":{"name":"Financial Reporting I","volume":"25 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-02-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129270191","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
