Summary:碩士 === 中原大學 === 會計研究所 === 89 === Abstracts This study attempts to investigate that whether the public listed company will manipulate discretionary accruals, before and after the additional issuance of listed capital by cash, in order to raising adequate funds, and the relation between issuance of additional capital by cash and earnings management in Taiwan. Additionally, this work also explores the variation of net income before and after additional issuance of capital by cash.
