Abstract

L'objet de cette étude est d'analyser les facteurs explicatifs du choix de l'activation, comme mode de comptabilisation des dépenses de recherche et développement (R&D), pour un échantillon d'entreprises françaises oeuvrant dans des secteurs industriels de haute technologie. Le modèle « logit » utilisé dans cette étude met en relation la décision d'activer les dépenses de R&D avec certains déterminants bien documentés dans la littérature en comptabilité (la taille de l'entreprise, son endettement, sa performance et ses opportunités d'investissement) ainsi que d'autres déterminants liés à l'activité de R&D, notamment, sa visibilité, son efficacité, sa stabilité et son mode de financement. Les résultats obtenus montrent que les variables liées à l'activité de R&D n'expliquent pas le choix de l'activation. Par ailleurs, ce choix est significativement corrélé avec la taille de l'entreprise, son endettement, sa performance et ses opportunités d'investissement.
