Abstract:
The present study investigates the mediating effect of the dividend policy on the relationship between corporate governance quality and informative income smoothing. Tucker and Zarowin (TZ) and Albrecht and Richardson (AR) approaches are utilized as proxies of informative income smoothing. In addition, an accumulated coding method and dividend are applied to measure the corporate governance quality and dividend policy, respectively. By applying a systematic elimination method, ۱۰۹ firms remained as the final sample for the period from ۲۰۰۷ to ۲۰۱۴. Using the TZ method, we found that there is a significant and positive relationship between corporate governance quality and informative income smoothing. Finally, according to the results of Sobel’s Test, the role of dividend policy as a mediating variable was not verified in the relationship between corporate governance quality and informative corporate governance (TZ); however, if the AR method is used for measuring informative income smoothing, the dividend policy may mediate the relationship between corporate governance quality and informative income smoothing.
