Summary:碩士 === 淡江大學 === 國際貿易學系國際企業學碩士班 === 95 === Since 2006 American Financial Accounting Standard Board has required the employee stock options as operating expense, we are going to execute the expense of stock bonuses from 2008. This amendment of accounting principle will extremely influence the real income of employees, earnings of the listed companies and change the stocks'' valuation of investors. Thus, it would be a great impact on Taiwan’s electronic stocks’ price. Those companies are engaging in executing the stock bonuses. We utilize 2005 ten financial variables of Taiwan’s listed electronic companies to analyze the impact of expense of stock bonuses”. First, we examine the development of the employee’s stock bonus nowadays and discuss the influence of expense on earnings per share. Second, we use two different pricing methods, after stock dividend price and the closing price on the working day right before the stockholders’ meeting, to evaluate the damage to the profit (total earnings & EPS) of those firms. Then, we apply the step-wise regression to extract the dominant variables affecting the rate-of-return of electronic stocks, then to analyze whether the stock bonuses impose negative influence on rate-of-return. Finally, considering the expense of stock bonuses, we re-calculate the relevant variables and re-regress amended econometric model, then evaluate the difference between two models. After empirical study, we find once the expense of stock bonuses is implemented, the profit and rate-of-returns of those companies will all be extremely influenced, and the injury of “the closing price on the working day right before the stockholders’ meeting” as the accounting principle is more serious than “the after stock dividend price”. Furthermore, the result of the step-wise regression demonstrates that the EPS is the only significant and critical variable in both the public and over the counter markets when investors evaluate the value of investment in Taiwan’s electronic stocks. According to the analysis of amended model, some companies’ profits even reverse to net loss. For the public markets, the amended EPS with two different pricing methods is still regarded as the significant factor by investors. However, with regard to OTC market, we can’t find out the expense effect, then in the econometric amended the EPS is replaced by the both inventory per share and operating profit per share. Therefore, once the stock bonuses must be recorded as expense, the companies must properly execute the stock bonuses, in order to balance the employee welfare and equity of stockholders.
