The sample of study consists of 53 companies listed in Tehran Stock Exchange during the years of 2007-2012. To test research Hypothesis, multiple linear regression models are used. Research findings indicate that outside board of director, audit quality and firm's age have positive impact and duality, institutional ownership, corporate ranking in organisation of industrial management have no impact on accuracy of earnings forecast.
