dc.description.abstract | This study is a rei.) 1 i''nf· ion oi a study conducted by Schreuder and
Klaassen in the Netheilands, in 1984 called "Confidential Revenue
and Profit Forecasts by Management and Financial Analysts". The
aim of the study is to examiné the accuracy of management's
internal forecast of revenue and profit, taking analysts'
forecasts as a standard of comparison for Turkey. This research
design differs from the previous research in that (a) it is based
on confidential instead of published data, (b) it includes
revenue and profit data, and (c) it investigates the extent to
which the forecasters themselves' v/ere surprised by the actual
outcomes. For the study, management and analysts' forecasts on 18
companies in Istanbul Stock Exchange were collected. The findings
show that managers perform slight'ly but not significantly better
than the analysts. The errors are close but smaller than the
Schreuder and Klaassen's study, and the difference between the
revenue and profit forecasts' error is small whereas it is much
higher for world revenue and profit forecast errors difference. | en_US |
