Abstract:
Firms often employ real profit management (REM) techniques, such as reducing advertising costs and running promotions, to meet short-term profit goals. The results show that the presence of the CMO reduces the firms propensity for REM, and that the CMOs ability and willingness to contain REM is dependent on the power of the CEO and the market power of the firm, respectively.
