Resumen

El presente estudio tiene como objetivo analizar el efecto moderador de los niveles de gestión de resultados (EM) y de agresividad fiscal (TAG) de las empresas sobre la relación entre la conformidad contable-impositiva (BTC) y la persistencia de beneficios. Para lograr este objetivo, buscamos verificar cómo los niveles promedio de EM y TAG pueden interferir en la relación entre BTC y la persistencia de ganancias. Se utilizó la técnica de regresión múltiple en una base de datos de empresas no financieras de 35 países en el período de 2010 a 2020. Los resultados muestran que los beneficios que el cumplimiento de la contabilidad tributaria puede traer a la persistencia de ganancias solo se potencian en entornos de bajos niveles de EM. y ETIQUETA. Además, dado que la agresividad fiscal aporta beneficios a la persistencia de las ganancias, estas ganancias sólo pueden lograrse en entornos con niveles bajos de BTC. Con base en estos resultados, es posible concluir que en entornos donde las empresas son más agresivas fiscalmente, se obtiene información contable de mejor calidad en entornos con bajos BTC. Por otro lado, las ganancias potenciales en términos de calidad de la información contable en un entorno de alto BTC no se logran si este entorno fomenta prácticas discrecionales de gestión de ganancias. Los resultados ofrecen nueva evidencia sobre la relación entre BTC y la persistencia de ganancias en entornos con mayor o menor incidencia de prácticas discrecionales.
