Call for Papers
2014 Journal of Accounting & Economics Conference

November 7-8, 2014, The Wharton School, University of Pennsylvania

The editors of the JAE invite submissions for the 2014 JAE conference. Consistent with the aims and scope of the journal, we encourage new and innovative, economics-based research that advances our knowledge. The novelty and innovation might have origins in ideas, theoretical development, databases, methodologies, research design, or the economic setting being examined. We encourage researchers (both within and outside accounting) to address unexplored accounting-related topics and to challenge conventional wisdom using rigorous economic analysis.

PAPER SUBMISSION PROCEDURE: The deadline for submissions is March 7, 2014. There is a submission fee of $450, payable by credit card only. Submissions to the JAE are made electronically via http://www.ees.elsevier.com/jae

All submitted papers will be reviewed for the Journal of Accounting & Economics using its normal criteria. Papers chosen for the conference and accepted for publication will be printed in a special issue. However, papers chosen for the conference are not necessarily published in the Journal. Papers not chosen for the conference may be considered for publication in a regular issue of the Journal.

The conference is sponsored by The Wharton School at the University of Pennsylvania, Wharton Research Data Services (WRDS), Charles River Associates, and Cambridge Business Publishers.
