An innovative new valuation framework with truly useful economic indicators

The End of Accounting and the Path Forward for Investors and Managers shows how the ubiquitous financial reports have become useless in capital market decisions and lays out an actionable alternative. Based on a comprehensive, large-sample empirical analysis, this book reports financial documents' continuous deterioration in relevance to investors' decisions. An enlightening discussion details the reasons why accounting is losing relevance in today's market, backed by numerous examples with real-world impact. Beyond simply identifying the problem, this report offers a solution--the Value Creation Report--and demonstrates its utility in key industries. New indicators focus on strategy and execution to identify and evaluate a company's true value-creating resources for a more up-to-date approach to critical investment decision-making.

While entire industries have come to rely on financial reports for vital information, these documents are flawed and insufficient when it comes to the way investors and lenders work in the current economic climate. This book demonstrates an alternative, giving you a new framework for more informed decision making.
_ Discover a new, comprehensive system of economic indicators
_ Focus on strategic, value-creating resources in company valuation
_ Learn how traditional financial documents are quickly losing their utility
_ Find a path forward with actionable, up-to-date information

Major corporate decisions, such as restructuring and M&A, are predicated on financial indicators of profitability and asset/liabilities values. These documents move mountains, so what happens if they're based on faulty indicators that fail to show the true value of the company? The End of Accounting and the Path Forward for Investors and Managers shows you the reality and offers a new blueprint for more accurate valuation.

Rezensionen
Praise for The End of Accounting and the Path Forward for Investors and Managers

"Utilizing and valuing intangible assets is essential for companies' investment and capital allocation decisions. This book proposes a thoughtful approach for managers and investors to appraise intangibles and thereby more accurately assess a company's value and performance. It's an important book for business leaders to read."
--Samuel J. Palmisano, Former Chairman, CEO, and President, IBM

"Reading this amazing book, I was reminded of Bill James' revolution in the analysis of baseball (Sabermetrics), celebrated in the book and movie Moneyball. Baruch Lev and Feng Gu argue for similar revolution in securities' analysis, where the financial stakes are orders-of-magnitude higher and the economic implications infinitely greater. The authors take us gently by the hand and escort us through every key aspect of their stunning case with a rare combination of clarity, humor, and scholarly authority--to be acted upon by investors and managers."
--Gene Epstein, Economics and Book Editor, Barron's

"The authors have identified an important area for investors--the accounting and reporting distortions of the actualities of businesses. They do an excellent job proposing ways to overcome these distortions. All investors should be cognizant of the issues presented in this book."
--Win Murray, Director of Research, Harris Associates L.P.

"This is one of those rare accounting and finance books that is both thought-provoking and visionary. The authors propose and demonstrate an exciting and highly practical new direction for corporate reporting and investment analysis, focusing on the value- creating resources of the enterprise. An essential reading for investors, accountants, and standard-setters."
--Allister Wilson, Global Audit Partner, Ernst & Young LLP

"A thought-provoking book on how to make accounting and financial reporting more relevant to investors, where intangible assets play a key role."
--Josef Lakonishok, CEO, LSV Asset Management
