International audienceThere are few studies on earnings thresholds and targets in France. International studies are numerous, however, they use almost excusively data based statistics.

Moreover, by proposing a typology of thresholds, it predicts the existence of thresholds not yet empirically proven, and helps in selecting the appropriate methodology according to the nature of the threshold studied.Les seuils et objectifs comptables sont peu étudiés en France.
