摘要:In this study we examine the effects and implications of the extraordinary earnings on user’s decision-making. A new format of presentation of the income statement is compulsory for Spanish companies, in order to help us adapt to IFRS, that exclude the use of a caption under the name of “extraordinary” items. It is thought that just as in other countries, a concept and content constraint will only minimise managers resorting to their use. Nevertheless, the utilization of non recurring items as a mean to manage results is far from be precluded of the financial information practices by managers.
