ASU 2016-09 simplifies the accounting for the tax effects of stock-based compensation by requiring firms to record all related tax windfalls and shortfalls as components of current income tax expense rather than as direct-to-equity adjustments, as was required under prior guidance. Many observers note this change may introduce significant volatility and uncertainty into firms' ETRs. Consistent with this concern, we document that errors in analysts' “clean” ETR forecasts significantly increased among firms reporting a material ETR effect due to early-adopting ASU 2016-09, relative to other firms. Our results suggest that simplification came at the cost of a decrease in the predictability of tax-related financial information; as such, this study provides timely evidence on an important economic consequence of ASU 2016-09.","PeriodicalId":45477,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the American Taxation Association","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2018-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44505600","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}

These individuals can belong to the same or different accounting firms and through multiple and repeated collaborations they form a professional network. We use network measures of centrality to capture individuals' ability to acquire and apply tax expertise across clients. We demonstrate that clients engaging better-connected individual auditors have comparatively lower effective tax rates. Our results are robust to controlling for a number of client, individual, and accounting firm characteristics, as well as for alternative network connections between clients. We also use instrumental variables, individual fixed effects, and matching to mitigate the effect of endogenous pairing of clients and auditors. Our findings demonstrate that in a joint audit environment, individual auditor professional networks have consequences for tax outcomes.\u0000 Data Availability: Data are obtainable from the public sources cited in the text and are available upon request.","PeriodicalId":45477,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the American Taxation Association","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2018-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49045057","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}

We collect data in two waves. First, we employ an experiential questionnaire (EQ) to obtain rich, detailed data about actual contentious client interactions experienced by tax professionals. Second, we conduct a follow-up survey based on the results of the EQ to provide additional insight. We find that tax professionals often employ arguments relating to possible taxing authority (e.g., Internal Revenue Service) actions and the technical merits of the tax position to persuade their clients. We also provide additional details about the types of contentious issues tax professionals experience and how these issues are resolved. Importantly, our results point to a need for more training on how to deal with contentious issues, as most professionals strongly believe training is needed, even though few have actually received training.\u0000 Data Availability: Contact authors.","PeriodicalId":45477,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the American Taxation Association","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2018-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41285243","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}

Although the TCJA shares many features with TRA86—corporate tax rate cuts, increasing the standard deduction, cutting back on deductions—it sharply differs in that it is neither revenue neutral nor distributionally neutral, both aspects of which are troubling in light of the large long-run federal fiscal imbalance and rising income inequality. Regardless of one's normative evaluation, the TCJA provides scores of natural experiments that can inform us about the consequences of tax changes on a wide range of economic behaviors.","PeriodicalId":45477,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the American Taxation Association","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2018-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47855883","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}

Theoretical and anecdotal evidence suggests that firms face a trade-off between risk-taking and managerial opportunism as they seek to produce higher returns. In the period before the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (SOX), we find that firms with more risk-taking through external asset growth are more likely to engage in aggressive reporting, but the reverse is true for firms with a practice of risk-taking through organic growth. Consistent with evidence in prior research on the improved quality of financial reporting after SOX, the positive association between a practice of risk-taking through asset growth and aggressive reporting is attenuated in the post-SOX period.","PeriodicalId":45477,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the American Taxation Association","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2018-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45579495","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}
