historical cost accounting with loose impairment rules (HL) under UK GAAP and historical cost 
accounting with strict impairment rules (HS) under IFRS relative to UK firms that used fair-value 
accounting (FV) under UK GAAP and then switched to historical cost accounting with strict impairment 
rules (HS) under IFRS. ***, **, * denote significance at the 1%, 5%, and 10% levels, respectively. P-
values are one-tailed when a directional prediction is made. Statistics for all variables are from firm-years 
between 2000 and 2009. The model includes industry fixed effects. Standard errors are clustered at the 
firm-level. For variable definitions, see "List of Variable Definitions" in Appendix A.
