Journal of Accounting, Auditing & Finance, 2020
We examine whether labor skills affect managers’ income-smoothing activities. We hypothesize firms that rely on skilled labor have greater incentives to smooth earnings to reduce labor turnover and facilitate replacements.

Analyzing a sample of 12,823 firm-year observations from U.S. companies in non-regulated industries for the period 2000–2018, we find that income smoothing is negatively associated with audit fees, suggesting that auditors favorably view smoothed ...

Consumption smoothing and income redistribution

European Economic Review, 2007
Abstract We show theoretically that income redistribution benefits borrowing-constrained individuals more than is implied by standard relative-income and uninsurable-risk considerations.

The tax benefit of income smoothing

Journal of Banking & Finance, 2011
A worker can contribute pre-tax dollars to a private pension plan. Under a progressive tax, this feature reduces income taxes. Ippolito (1986) argues that an individual in 1979 can reduce lifetime taxes by 20%. We re-examine his analysis using the complete time-series of US income tax history and find that the tax benefit of income smoothing is much ...

Discussion of Income Smoothing

Journal of Accounting Research, 1968
In his opening paragraphs, Mr. Copeland outlines a plausible, threefold purpose for his paper, namely (1) to specify some attributes of accounting variables which have a capacity for smoothing, (2) to evaluate earlier investigations, and (3) to report on empirical investigations of three hypotheses which have implications for further research on income
