Big Bath Accounting 

Big bath accounting is an earnings management technique where a company intentionally takes a large, one-time charge against income to make current results appear worse, with the goal of improving future earnings. This is often done by writing down assets or recognizing unexpected liabilities in the current period, which reduces net income but leads to lower expenses and higher profits in subsequent periods. The primary goal of big bath accounting is to "clean the slate" for future performance.
