Abstract

As a creditor's right of enterprises, accrued income directly influences the actual earnings level of enterprises. Based on the seasonal data from 2009Q1 - 2015Q3, by selecting the relevant indicators of accounts receivable as the indicators of measuring accrued income, an empirical test on the relevance of accounts receivable and earnings quality of listed companies in China's hotel industry is carried out. According to the study, we can draw conclusions below: the size of accounts receivable is positively related to earnings quality; the turnover rate of accounts receivable is positively related to earnings quality; the difference between the growth rate of operating income and the growth rate of accounts receivable is positively related to the earnings quality; hotel class listed companies' accounts receivable accounts for a higher proportion of assets, and the growth rate of accounts receivable is generally higher than the growth rate of operating income, but the average turnover rate of accounts receivable is within a reasonable range. Therefore, enterprises may be appropriate to relax the credit limit, establish the collection system strictly, strengthen the recovery and management of accounts receivable.
