In this paper we investigate the quality of earnings of companies that are listed on the Ukrainian Stock Exchange between 2005 and 2011 years. To assess the quality of earnings, we used a simple method, based on the levels of total accruals. We hypothesized that higher level of total accruals is associated with low quality earnings. Given the limitations of this approach, we found no convincing examples of manipulating earnings, but our results show that in 2008 the possibility to manipulate earnings is significant.
