本研究的主要目的在探討是否我國新上市公司盈餘管理的現象與証券交易法上所規定的上市申請的門檻有關。我國新上市公司在上市後多有業績衰退及上市前盈餘管理之現象（曾國楊，民國84年）。這種人為的業績擴充或增加盈餘，往往是為了符合法規中上市申請的規定，特別是上市門檻的規定。倘若公司上市可以為原始股東帶來大量的邊際利益，列在可接受的範圍內，申請上市公司自有動機從事上市前業績人為擴充及盈餘管理的現象。本研究就在探討這項研究問題。
本研究以民國74年至83年間斬上市的公司為樣本，測試獲利能力較差或存續期間較短之新上市公司，是否較有動機在上市前從事盈餘管理。實証結果顯示：
就獲利能力來說，獲利能力較差之第一類上市公司在上市前會以應計項目及與營業有關之應計項目來操縱盈餘；但就第二類上市公司而言，實証結果反而與假說所預測的相反，即獲利能力較優的新上市公司反而會在上市前操縱盈餘。
就存續期間來說，第一類上市公司之實証結果大致與假說所預測的一致，但未達顯著水準，即存續期間較短之新上市公司，並不會在上市前以應計項目式與營業有關之應計項目來進行盈餘管理。就第二類上市公司來說，實証結果則與假說相反，但也未達顯著水準。 / This study aims to investigate whether the earnings management prior to IPO (Initial Public Offerings) relates to the qualifications of an IPO. In general, a firm will manage its earnings prior to IPO and have sales recess subsequent to IPO. Due to mandated IPO qualifications, perhaps, the motivation of earnings management or artificial sales expansion comes from the mandated IPO qualifications. The empirical sample period covers from 1985 to 1994 on which the empirical findings can be summarized as follows.
1. Low profitability first class firms will manage their earnings prior to IPO by the use of net accruals and net accruals from operations. In contrast, high profitability second class firms will manage their earnings prior to IPO.
2. This study cannot conclude that a younger IPO firm has a stronger incentive in managing its earnings than an older firm does.
