近年來財務危機案件頻傳,而造成這些財務危機的原因是否係因為管理當局為達成目標盈餘而操弄財務數據。企業為了達成永續經營的目標時,其內部因素是否會促使企業行使實質盈餘管理的行為,因此激發本文使用企業行為理論,來探討與實質盈餘管理之間的關聯性。實證研究結果顯示當企業產生績效落差的時候,管理當局較易採取盈餘管理的政策;當企業產生潛在寬裕性資源時,管理當局較不傾向採取盈餘管理的政策;當企業面臨生存危機的時候,管理當局會傾向盈餘管理的政策。研究結論希望投資人可以透過每年公布的財務報表,衡量是否管理當局從事盈餘管理的行為,例如:股東可以透過衡量組織寬裕與營業活動的現金流量初步了解企業是否有從事實質盈餘管理的可能性。
