We propose that firms in similar life cycle stages (LCSs) face similar strategic concerns, managerial pressures, growth prospects, etc., and that the commonality in these factors contribute to the “normal” accruals generating process. Consistent with this prediction, we simulate various earnings management conditions and find that accruals models are misspecified in detecting manipulation within particular LCSs; in particular, introduction, shakeout, and decline firms are over-identified as manipulators, while growth and mature firms are under-identified as manipulators when LCS is <em>not</em><span> used to estimate accruals.

We experimentally examine whether this protection extends to an accounting restatement and whether investors' attributions of the underlying reasons for this restatement affect their judgments. Results indicate that when a restatement occurs, non-professional investors evaluate high-performing CSR companies more favorably than their average-performing peers, but only when the misstatement appears unintentional. We also incorporate the Stereotype Content Model to test whether feelings of warmth and competence toward the company affect non-professional investor judgments. We document that absent a restatement, feelings of warmth mediate the relationship between CSR performance and investor judgments through competence. Following a misstatement, however, warmth directly mediates that relationship. Our results provide insights into specific psychological mechanisms and boundary conditions of the previously documented insurance effect of CSR performance.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":46906,"journal":{"name":"Advances in Accounting","volume":"60 ","pages":"Article 100638"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2023-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45964387","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}
