Abstract



Kar kalitesi
son yıllarda muhasebe ve finansman literatüründe önemli bir kavram haline
gelmiş ve konuya ilişkin çok sayıda çalışma yapılmıştır. Bu çalışmada sahiplik
yapısı ve kar kalitesi arasındaki ilişki incelenmiştir.  Borsa İstanbul’a kayıtlı 130 firma verisinden
yararlanılan çalışma 2014-2015 yıllarını kapsamaktadır. Çalışmada sahiplik yapısı
göstergesi olarak kurumsal sahiplik, yönetsel sahiplik, yabancı sahiplik ve
dağınık sahiplik kullanılmıştır. Kar kalitesi göstergesi olarak da literatür
ile tutarlı bir biçimde ihtiyari tahakkuklar kullanılmıştır. Yapılan çalışma
sonucunda kar kalitesi ile sahiplik yapısı göstergesi olarak kullanılan yabancı
sahiplik arasında pozitif ve istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bir ilişki tespit
edilmiştir. Buna karşın diğer sahiplik yapısı göstergeleri ile kar kalitesi
arasında anlamlı bir ilişki elde edilememiştir.
