(2006)所研究的公司治理變數。
Purposes (1) To examine whether the relations between the cost of equity capital and CG-variables holds at different points of the conditional distribution of the cost of capital using the quantile regression method, i.e., whether these relations differ for firms with high cost of equity capital from firms with low cost of equity capital. (2) To introduce the method of quantile regression, which has been used widely in the past decade in applied economics, to accounting research? Motivations (1) For example, Francis et al. (2004) have been examined the relation between the cost of equity capital and seven earnings attributes: accruals quality, persistence, predictability, smoothness, relevance, timeliness and conservatism using the traditional ordinary least squares (OLS) estimation method (and Fama and MacBeth (1973) method). As such, the relations they document describe how the mean of the response variable (cost of capital) relates to seven earnings attributes. The relations between other points on the distribution of the response variable and seven earnings attributes may or may not be the same as the mean relation. This inadequacy of the OLS estimates is recognized in an influential textbook by Mosteller and Turkey (1977).1 (2) Quantile regression, developed by Koenker and Bassett (1978), extends the traditional OLS method by estimating the conditional quantile functions – the relation between the response variable and explanatory variables for each quantile of the response variables.2 Quantile regression, thus, allows us to examine the relation between the response variable and explanatory variables not only for firms that behave according to the mean of the response variable (as captured by OLS) but also for firms that behave above or below the mean. In other words, quantile regression presents a much more detailed picture of the relation between the response variable and explanatory variables than does the OLS. To take an analogy, the OLS is like reporting the mean of a sample distribution whereas quantile regression is like reporting the full percentiles of the sample distribution (e.g., min, p10, Q1, median, Q3, p90, max). (3) Why do I use the quantile regression method to examine the relation between the cost of capital and seven earnings attributes? First, Francis et al. (2004) is an influential paper documenting that information risk, as proxied by seven earnings attributes, is a priced risk factor. Second, they state that their findings have 「practical value for investors, researchers, standard setters and managers」 (p. 1007). In particular, their findings support the notion that the cost of capital is linked to earnings attributes, which implies that managers can influence the cost of capital through influencing earnings attributes, especially accounting-based attributes such as accrual quality. Since firms』 cost of capital could be substantially above or below the mean cost of capital of a sample, the mean relation between the cost of capital and earnings attributes documented in Francis et al. (2004) does not necessarily hold for these firms. Quantile regression, on the other hand, can estimate the relation between the cost of capital and earnings attributes for these firms.關聯 基礎研究
