Accounting and Causal Effects: Econometric Challenges delves into the complexities of identifying and estimating causal relationships within accounting contexts. Authored by Douglas A. Schroeder, the book synthesizes a vast literature on econometric challenges associated with accounting choices and their causal effects. It emphasizes the identification and estimation of endogenous causal effects, acknowledging that observable data are rarely directly linked to the causal effect of interest. A common strategy discussed is employing logically consistent probability assessment via Bayes’ theorem to connect observable data to the causal effect of interest. The book focuses on the 'why' rather than the 'how,' offering insights into the experiences with accounting and econometrics. While geared toward graduate studies, it is a valuable resource for researchers and students interested in the intersection of accounting and econometrics.
