报告内容摘要：
a transition in earnings management behavior from accruals-based earnings management (aem) to real activities manipulation (rem) has been observed in recent years, attracting attention from both industry and academia. this study quantifies the relative power of cfos compared to non-ceo executives via their rankings in top management teams and finds that firms with high-ranking cfos are more (less) likely to adopt rem (aem). we examine the power mechanism by validating the substitutive role of other power sources and document that the impact of cfo ranking is weakened when they serve as a board member, hold more shares, or have multiple senior managerial positions. in addition, the effect of cfo power on earnings management strategy varies across environmental contexts. overall, our paper contributes to the literature by clarifying factors driving the shift from aem to rem through an internal key role perspective.
