Celem artykułu jest identyfikacja determinant rzeczowego kształtowania wyniku finansowego za pomocą kosztów ogólnego zarządu i sprzedaży. Nadzwyczajne koszty ogólnego zarządu i sprzedaży modelowano oddzielnie dla każdej branży i każdego roku w analizowanym okresie. To pozwoliło ostatecznie na weryfikację modelu ekonometrycznego opisującego związki między nadzwyczajnymi kosztami ogólnego zarządu oraz determinantami, wyznaczając regresję za pomocą metody najmniejszych kwadratów. Wykazano, że podmioty sprawozdawcze wykorzystują tę grupę kosztów do wygładzania wyniku. Koszty ogólnego zarządu i sprzedaży są redukowane przy raportowaniu „małych zysków”. Rosnącym udziałom menadżerskim we własności towarzyszy spadek kształtowania wyniku w górę za pomocą tych kosztów. Obecność inwestorów instytucjonalnych we własności nie mityguje kształtowania wyniku finansowego za pomocą tych kosztów, jednak jakość audytu sprawozdania finansowego redukuje rozmiary kształtowania wyniku.

In the study, we identified determinants of real earnings management using general, administrative and selling expenses (SGAE). Abnormal general, administrative and selling expenses were modeled separately for each year and industry using the approach of Roychowdhury [2006], with modification of Cohen, Dey and Lys [2008]. Then we verified the model describing the correlation between abnormal general administrative and selling expenses using least squares method. We confirmed that SGAE are used for income smoothing. We provided evidence that SGAE are reduced in order to avoid reporting losses. When share of managerial ownership in equity increases companies reduce their usage of SGAE for earnings management. Audit quality reduces upward earnings management using SGAE.
