We then find … that the out-of-sample prediction errors provided by the accrual-based earnings model are significantly lower than those …The aim of this study is to determine whether accruals have information value beyond that provided by isolated current …

Does the availability of internal finance constrain firm growth? Or does it foster it? To answer these questions, we use a panel of 407,096 Chinese firms over the period 2000-2005. We estimate dynamic assets growth equations augmented with cash flow, and find that the growth of state owned...

In this paper, we analyze the determinants of corporate saving in the form of changes in the stock of cash for 11 Asian economies using firm-level data from the Oriana Database for the 2002 - 2011 period. We find some evidence that cash flow has a positive impact on the change in the stock of...
