This tax increase only applies to firms organized as income trusts, but not corporations. Using a difference‐in‐differences design, we find that investment by income trusts decreases about 0.67% for each 1 percentage point increase in the tax rate, translating into over $10 billion in reduced aggregate investment. In decomposing total investment, our results reveal that capital expenditures exhibit an immediate decrease while there is a delayed decrease in acquisition activity. Our results are concentrated in high‐investment income trusts that are most sensitive to the link between investment and taxes. Our study helps resolve conflicting prior results by providing robust evidence that tax increases have an economically significant and negative causal effect on business investment.","PeriodicalId":48414,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Accounting Research","volume":"188 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.4,"publicationDate":"2026-08-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148842860","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We propose and test a two‐step framework, which is informed by in‐depth interviews with analysts. First, consistent with AI facilitating automation‐assisted public information processing, we show that AI investments are associated with more timely earnings forecasts following 10‐K filings, particularly after the implementation of iXBRL, which increases the machine readability of filings. Second, we show that analysts reallocate the time and capacity freed by automation toward acquiring and incorporating private information, supported by several sets of evidence: AI investments (1) are associated with higher quality and bolder earnings forecasts, particularly when private information is more important and accessible to analysts; (2) are associated with an expansion of analyst coverage to new firms and industries; and (3) are associated with higher information‐seeking efforts, particularly greater participation in earnings conference calls. Additionally, exploiting the launch of AskResearchGPT at Morgan Stanley, an in‐house generative AI designed for research, we find results consistent with our main analyses. Overall, our study provides insights into the potential for AI to reshape the human value of sell‐side analysts.","PeriodicalId":48414,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Accounting Research","volume":"63 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.4,"publicationDate":"2026-08-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148767469","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The threat of refinancing likely drives this effect, as the results are more pronounced when such threats are more credible.","PeriodicalId":48414,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Accounting Research","volume":"90 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.4,"publicationDate":"2026-08-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148754397","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Research and practice indicate that the most common method of presenting operating cash flows, the indirect method, is viewed as overly complex. We experimentally examine whether two theoretically motivated factors represent shortcomings of the indirect method: (1) inadequate linking of related components of net income and changes in working capital accounts, and (2) inconsistent income statement labeling between components of net income and their corresponding working capital changes. Drawing on causal reasoning theory, we predict and find that these factors hinder the decision usefulness of the operating section of the statement of cash flows. The results of our study are informative to the academic literature and standard setters, as we examine underlying reasons why the indirect method may be viewed unfavorably.","PeriodicalId":48414,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Accounting Research","volume":"3 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.4,"publicationDate":"2026-08-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148698804","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

First, we document that (1) subsidy firms innovate in the subsidized county and (2) subsidy firms bring inventors from other counties into the subsidized county, consistent with subsidy firms generating new knowledge locally. In our main test, we use a stacked cohort design with stringent fixed effects to document that local firms increase patenting following a Megadeal. Cross‐sectionally, effects are increasing (1) in subsidy firm innovativeness, (2) in the technological closeness of subsidy firms and local firms, (3) when subsidy and local firms share an industry, and (4) when the subsidized location has a heavy college presence. Additionally, we document that following a Megadeal, local firms increasingly make citations to subsidy firm patents and that the patent similarity of local and subsidy firms increases. We document that subsidy firm inventors are more likely to move to local firms following a Megadeal. We also find that subsidies for labs, headquarters, and high‐tech manufacturing plants drive our main results. These results are consistent with knowledge spillovers being one channel through which we observe an increase in local firm patenting following Megadeals.","PeriodicalId":48414,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Accounting Research","volume":"17 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.4,"publicationDate":"2026-07-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148596131","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The overall number of accounting positions that firms recruit for does not decrease when the rules become more restrictive; however, the nature of accountants' work changes. There is less focus on tasks such as applying judgment, thinking creatively, and thinking critically and more focus on determining compliance. Despite the decrease in accountants, earnings for accountants do not increase, and the wage distribution becomes more compressed. I supplement these analyses with a survey-based field experiment and find that the salience of restrictiveness heightens students' views of accounting as a profession where they are unable to use creative and critical thinking.

This strategic imprecision prevents the fund from distinguishing between firms that require subsidies and those that would switch to clean technologies for financial reasons alone, thereby increasing the ex ante subsidies firms can extract. A by-product of this rent-seeking behavior is that firms adopt clean technologies more frequently than would be jointly efficient under precise measurement.
