Book excerpt: Seminar paper from the year 2009 in the subject Business economics - Investment and Finance, grade: 2,3, Cologne University of Applied Sciences, course: International Management and Business Consulting, language: English, abstract: According to BIS ( Department for Business innovation and skills ), Value Added measures the amount of wealth created by a company and is of particular importance since it reflects the ability of companies to provide their customers with what they want and are prepared to pay for. As such, it provides a broader perspective on a company‟s economic contribution than operating profit. Mathematically, Value Added = Company Sales - Bought-in goods. Value added is regarded as one of the most important objective of a Firm or a company because it measures the amount of the wealth created by a company, from where we can analyze how a particular company is contributing to the economy of a certain country. Every year the "Value Added Scoreboard‟ measures the overall growth of a company and examines the efficiencies. The analysis will be in many different sectors, sometimes differentiated by a country or a region which we will talk in this paper later. The British Minister of State for Science and innovation Lord Paul Drayson mentioned in his ministerial foreword that innovation is essential to national competitiveness and to ensure that countries can respond to global challenges and opportunities. He also mentions the clear ambition of British government to make the UK the best place to do business. Chancellor of the Exchequer Mr. Alistair Darling mentioned his support to innovative businesses in the UK. Many people believe that the coming century will be an Asian century with Asia contributing one third of the global GDP. This is also a good reason to make the UK and Europe most welcoming place for businesses and especially innovative businesses. As Darling "There are many opportunities for the UK firms, we are helping them to meet that challenge t

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Project Report from the year 2011 in the subject Business economics - Business Management, Corporate Governance, grade: 1,5, University of Cooperative Education Stuttgart; Horb, language: English, abstract: From the contemporary dominance of the shareholder value approach arises more and more the necessity to precisely detect its performance as shareholder value is broadly seen as a significant indicator determining a company’s success or failure. However, measuring the performance of a company’s shareholder value can be very challenging. Hence, the purpose of this paper is to deal with a well-known approach that enables businesses to detect its shareholder value performance: Economic Value Added (EVA). The thesis discusses the correlation between EVA and shareholder value, it further outlines its main drivers. In the second part, the paper elaborates on the specific links of the EVA approach to a regional Sales department and identifies the department’s main leverages on EVA. In order to detect the influence of the main operative decisions on EVA, the thesis introduces the key figure Effect-on-EVA. The applicability of Effect-on-EVA is shown in a model calculation. Above all, this project thesis shall create a profound practical value by sharpening the awareness of how to influence EVA in a positive way. In order to meet the recommended scope, the paper does not elaborate Asset Management, Accounts Receivable Management and Incentive Compensation in detail, but strives to point out the respective links to EVA.

This book was released on 2013 with total page 116 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To success in changing business environment, every business executive needs to systematically evaluate the performance of a company as well as foresee future trends taking into account all relevant facts. He can use wide portfolio of available traditional methods and indicators, used in financial analysis, however, he needs to be open to new management approaches in this area. For long-term successful existence of the company, it is necessary that the company is able to generate the economic profit and value not only for owners but also for all the business stakeholders. The emerging value-based approaches overcome issues related to traditionally used methods, as the attention is shifted to economic profit that reflects implicit costs of equity capital. Thus, the methods look at the business performance from shareholder's point of view. Moreover, there is the empirical evidence, that the creation of shareholder's value is the condition for creation of wealth for all related stakeholders.
Download or read book Value Based Performance Measures written by Nils Eikelmann and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-08-19 with total page 309 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nils Eikelmann describes the framework conditions for the application of value-based performance measures and critically analyses selected ones. The disclosure of value-based performance indicators is important in order to demonstrate the successful management of a company and to satisfy the increasing information needs of investors. However, companies adapt the developed theoretical concepts of value-based performance measures to their practical needs and thus investors are no longer able to compare the performance of companies. In addition, there is a variety of different metrics from which companies can choose. The empirical study aims to reduce existing research gaps and is divided into three parts: the analysis of annual reports of selected European companies, the calculation of a standardised value-based performance measure and a value relevance study in the form of an association study.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Investors, shareholders, and corporate leaders looking for an edge in today's New Economy are moving beyond traditional accounting yardsticks toward new means of gauging performance and profitability. An increasing number of Wall Street analysts and corporate boards are adopting value-based metrics such as EVA, MVA, and CFROI as a measure of a firm's profitability because these standards adjust for all of the firm's cost of capital - equity as well as debt. James Grant tackled the issue of economic value added in its infancy with Foundations of Economic Value Added - one of the first primers on the topic, endorsed by its creator, G. Bennett Stewart. Now, in Value Based Metrics: Foundations and Practice, he and Frank Fabozzi head a team of some of the leading proponents of value based metrics on both the investment management side and the corporate side. This comprehensive reference outlines how corporations and analysts can use value based metrics to more accurately measure the financial performance of individual companies, industries, and economies, as well as how to get an edge in today's turbulent market.
Download or read book Measuring the Value Added of Management written by Thomas J. Housel and published by . This book was released on 2006 with total page 57 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: That management adds value to organizations is one of the unquestioned truisms of business, government, military, and any other multi-member organization. The question left largely unanswered is, "How much value does management add to an organization?" The central research focus of this study is to establish a method for objectively measuring the value management adds to an organization. Determining the value added by management becomes particularly important as Navy acquisition managers deal with increasingly complex, open business models that engage many more participants in the development and implementation of products and services to support warfighters. There is a recognition that emerging, increasingly complex acquisition environments require more direction, collaboration, and control to achieve the reductions in costs as well as the increases in warfighting effectiveness that initiatives, such as the Open Architecture (OA) system acquisition and development framework, promise. The increasing burden on management in such environments largely derives from the amount of complexity managers must deal with by attempting to mitigate risks, improve predictions, and exercise the control and oversight necessary to be successful.

Book excerpt: The KPMG-BS study (1998) assessed top 100 Indian companies on EVA, sales, PAT, and MVA criterion. The survey has used the BS-100 list of companies using a composite index comprising sales, profitability, and compounded annual growth rate to cull out the top 100 Indian companies. The study covered the period 1996-97. The relationship between the ranks given in KPMG-BS(1998) study on four criterion variables for the 98 comapnies were studied by using Spearman's rank correlation coefficient. Though, the rank correlation between economic profit (EP) and PAT, EP and MVA are statistically significant, but it is not substantial. There is a high degree of correlation between PAT and MVA. Hence, EVA, REVA and MVA are better measure of business performance in terms of shareholder value creation and competitive advantage of firm.

Download or read book Accounting for Value Added written by Nikhil Chandra Shil and published by LAP Lambert Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2012-04 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Value added is a concept used in accounting and economics literatuer with a very close meaning. It signifies the value added by a company or a country during a certain period and thus very important for evaluation of performance. Conventional income statement doesn't report this and thus in UK, the practice of value added reporting starts with the publication of The Corporate Report. Later on, the concept of value added gained so popularity that companies in different countries started to publish value added statement voluntarily. The statement has two parts: first part deals with value creation and the second part deals with the distribution of same. Later on, expanded value added statements, a special form of value added reporting, has emerged to accomodate social and environmental reporting within the mainstream framework. Such incorporation increases the scope and utility of the statement. However, such statement is not a mendatory requirement, goes to the discretion of management where to publish or not. This monograph covers the theory behind value added, its reporting and regulatory issues.
Download or read book Assessing Financial Performance Through EVA written by Dyal Bhatnagar and published by LAP Lambert Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2012 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Value addition is at the core of managing and utilising the finances of a business. Conventionally it has been understood in terms of profit generation which has been measured by calculating the ROI or EPS or any other profitability ratio. However, such a way to understand value creation presents a one sided picture, in that it does not consider the overall cost of capital which has been used to generate the returns. In 1990, the 'Stern Stewart & Co.' chose to look back at the old basics given by Alferd Marshal and came up with a tool called Economic Value Added (EVA), which is simply the profitability of a company net of its overall cost of capital. Literature indicates that positive EVA also means positive Market Value Added (MVA) and vice-versa. This relationship between EVA and MVA has its implications on valuation. The present research confirms that all in all, EVA does standout as the most prominent factor in the ultimate analysis as having a decisive impact on a firm's value.

Book excerpt: Scholarly Research Paper from the year 2004 in the subject Business economics - General, grade: A-, Hawai'i Pacific University, course: MBA IT class, 11 entries in the bibliography, language: English, abstract: This paper will analyze how the German car manufacturer BMW derives value from information systems as well as identify the value chain activities that are affected by the identified information systems. Following analysis will be limited to the information systems that provide the greatest value to BMW in form of gaining or maintaining a competitive advantage. BMW, which stands for Bayerische Motoren Werke, is a luxury car manufacturer. The headquarters of the BMW group is in Munich, Germany, but the company is present all over the world (BMW Group, 2004). The company built high brand equity over the years through continuous branding efforts and high quality products (Interbrand, 2001). BMW is arguably the most admired carmaker in the world and BMW products inspire near-fanatical loyalty (Kiley, 2004). Michael E. Porter developed the value chain concept in 1985. Porter's value chain provides a systematic means of categorizing activities. At each stage of the value chain there exists an opportunity to contribute positively to the firm's competitive strategy by performing some activity or process in a way that is better than the competitors, and so providing some uniqueness or advantage (Porter, 1985). Value activities can be divided into two broad types, primary activities and support activities (Porter, 1985). There are five generic categories of primary activities involved in competing in any industry: (a) Inbound Logistics, (b) Operations, (c) Outbound logistics, (d) Marketing and Sales, and (e) Services (Porter, 1985). Support activities support the primary activities and can be divided in four generic categories: (a) Procurement, (b) Technology Development, (c) Human Resource Management and (d) Firm Infrastructure (Porter, 1985).

This book was released on 2001 with total page 16 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Stochastic frontier analysis is employed for a comparison of value-added and traditional measures of performance. Results indicate value-added measures are not significantly different from traditional measures of performance and thus little if any information is gained by replacing traditional measures with value-added measures. However, value-added measures may be useful to managers for value creation decisions resulting in excess profits.
Download or read book Value Added Reporting and Research written by Ahmed Riahi-Belkaoui and published by Praeger. This book was released on 1999-12-30 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is clear that value added methods provide relevant, useful information for financial analysis, market valuation, and financial decision making in corporate settings. Value added methods can be used in ratio analysis, in the determination of earnings as an earnings management tools, and can be substituted for earnings in equity valuation. When included in a wealth measurement it can vastly improve the quality of decision making. Riahi-Belkaoui covers these topics and more. His book is a probing, essential examination of what the latest value added methods are and what they can do, not only for accounting professionals but for academics and top corporate management as well. Value added reporting is popular in most European countries and in New Zealand, South Africa, and Australia. Most emerging countries are using it too, or considering it. Riahi-Belkaoui explicates latest developments in value-added practice and research, first covering the meaning of the concept, the history behind value added's development and its implied advantages and disadvantages. He then covers the derivation of a value added report, using a fictional case and the resulting data, before moving to an overview of the empirical literature most concerned with value added in the United States. Documenting the overall behavior of the net value added earnings policy model, he lays the foundation for more contextually specific approaches and investigates the usefulness of the substitution of net-value added in equity valuation. The book concludes with an examination of whether accounting knowledge is associated with a decision maker's tendency to ignore value added in wealth measurement in favor of the profit concept. Riahi-Belkaoui draws heavily on his own important writings, to further illustrate and explain the methods and benefits of value added approaches in accounting and other forms of financial decision making.
