We develop estimates of the discretionary and non-discretionary components of the loan loss provision using nine different specifications and two scale-related deflators. We test the value relevance of these estimates on the market capitalization using two different valuation models and different regression approaches.

Using a measure of a firm's reliance on principles-based versus rules-based standards, we contribute to the literature by empirically examining the relation between conditional accounting conservatism and use of principles-based standards for U.S. firms. We find that conditional accounting conservatism is <em>lower</em> for firms relying more on principles-based standards, and this association is more pronounced for firms with greater earnings management incentives. However, the negative relation between conditional conservatism and use of principles-based standards is mitigated when there are contracting or litigation concerns. Additional analysis shows that reliance on principles-based standards also reduces unconditional accounting conservatism. Our findings are robust to using alternative measures of accounting conservatism, firm fixed effects, and a difference-in-difference model. Our evidence informs the FASB and the SEC that adoption of principles-based standards comes at a cost and has implications for regulators, auditors, analysts, investors, and others.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":46906,"journal":{"name":"Advances in Accounting","volume":"58 ","pages":"Article 100607"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2022-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"53968356","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 further hypothesize these interventions, in turn, will reduce negative affect toward the auditor and negligence judgments. Our research leverages counterfactual thinking, attribution, and blame theories, and the use of affect as information. Additionally, we build on recent research that finds proactive preventive actions and the presence of a strong, active audit committee can reduce auditor liability judgments (Alderman &amp; Jollineau, 2020; Frank, Grenier, &amp; Pyzoha, 2021). Unlike Reffett (2010), we find that auditor's incremental efforts can reduce, rather than increase, negligence judgments.
