A test design is subject to look-ahead bias if it uses inform ation that was not available on the test date. For exam pie, tests of trading rules that use stock market returns and accounting
balance sheet data must account for look-ahead bias. In such tests, a company's book value
per share is commonly used to construct the P/B variable. Although the market price of a stock is available for all market participants at the same point in time, fiscal year-end book equity per share might not become publicly available until sometime in the following quarter.
