Changes of the CEO or changes in the majority of the board of directors used as factors identifying change in management. These tests showed that although positive earnings management occurred in the year preceding the management change, this would shortly be followed by a negative earnings management in the year which the change took place with a final upward trend in the year after the change occurred.
