Este estudo tem por objetivo analisar a relação entre a remuneração dos executivos e o grau de conservadorismo condicional de empresas brasileiras. O período de análise compreendeu os anos de 2011 a 2015. A amostra final do estudo constituiu-se de 258 empresas para o ano de 2011, de 253 empresas para os anos de 2012 e 2013, de 255 empresas para o ano de 2014 e de 258 empresas para o ano de 2015.Para a análise dos dados, utilizou-se o modelo de conservadorismo contábil de Ball e Shivakumar (2005), inserindo-se as proxies remuneração fixa dos executivos e remuneração variável com base no lucro e nas ações das empresas. Os resultados do estudo permitiram confirmar as hipóteses de pesquisa, pois o conservadorismo condicional, quando medido pelo reconhecimento oportuno das perdas como proxy de boas e más notícias, foi afetado pela remuneração fixa e variável dos executivos. Conclui-se que os planos de remuneração com base no lucro e nas ações das empresas possibilitam que os executivos utilizem procedimentos contábeis que aumentem a sua remuneração no curto e no longo prazo, em vista das evidências encontradas de uma relação negativa entre a remuneração variável dos executivos e o grau de conservadorismo condicional das empresas brasileiras. No que tange às contribuições práticas deste estudo, a análise do conservadorismo condicional deve estar presente quando da utilização de remuneração variável de executivos, mitigando práticas contábeis mais agressivas que possam prejudicar a qualidade da informação contábil disponibilizada aos diversos stakeholders.
