jcf-tables-figures

Use when building the tables and figures for a Journal of Corporate Finance (JCF) empirical paper — summary statistics, main regression tables with fixed effects and clustering disclosed, event-study/CAR plots, and self-contained notes. It shapes the exhibits; pair with jcf-data-analysis for the underlying estimates.

# Tables & Figures (jcf-tables-figures)

## When to trigger

- Designing the summary-statistics, main-result, and robustness tables
- Building event-study or CAR figures with confidence bands
- Writing self-contained table/figure notes a reviewer can read without the text

## Table conventions (empirical corporate finance)

- **Summary statistics**: N, mean, SD, key percentiles; flag winsorizing and units. Match the sample to the regression sample.
- **Main regression tables**: coefficients with standard errors (or t-stats) clearly labeled; report the **fixed effects included**, the **clustering level**, N, and within/adjusted R². Show **economic magnitude** (e.g., a 1-SD change) near the headline coefficient.
- **Robustness tables**: vary one thing per panel/column (definition, subsample, FE, estimator) so the reader sees what moves the result.
- Use a consistent decimal precision; do not hide the dependent variable's scaling.
