Accordingly, in this research, necessity of recognition of earnings management is explained, and to model the GMDH neural network, due to its high performance in forecasting, and based on the 4-methods; TA-adjusted profit and loss, TA Balance Sheet, adjusted TA Jones Model and TA gains and losses, have been used. Results showed that, net profit after tax has the double effect, operational cash flow, p / b and p / E ratio are effective variables, and net fixed assets + depreciation, changes in first accounts receivable, are omitted variables (low-impact). According to results, therefore, the net profit after tax in the total accruals, is the most important variable and TA gains and losses, is the best method of evaluation criteria errors |
