Hey,

I am curious about your opinions.

Is earnings management more likely to occur under Rules-based or Principle-based standards?
Maybe you can take the following into account :
- discretionary vs. real earnings management
- Management discretion vs. auditors acceptance

Does the use of the same set of standards lead to comparable financial statements?

Thank you in advance
