Book Analysing Financial Performance

Download or read book Analysing Financial Performance written by Nic La Rosa and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-12-28 with total page 153 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite a plethora of techniques to analyse the financial performance of a business, there has been no single methodology that has been overwhelmingly preferred by users. This could be an indication that either the methods themselves are deficient or they are limited by other factors that are not easily overcome. Unlike the current offerings in the field, which focus on issues relating to business performance management or non-financial aspects (such as market efficiency, satisfaction and workforce productivity), this book offers a solution to a major gap in the literature and understanding for those seeking to measure, analyse and benchmark the financial performance of any organisation (for-profit, not-for-profit and government agencies). It clearly identifies why current techniques fail; proposes and evidences a solution that overcomes these issues by including two algorithms that can be combined, to solve this problem; and demonstrates the practical application of the technique to the benefit of users in order to pinpoint real performance levels and insights. One of the largest issues this book will help to overcome is the inability to compare the accounts of businesses/organisations from different countries that report in different currencies. This technique eliminates the need for currency translations and the issues that arise with that process. This book is an invaluable and practical guide to assist accounting and finance practitioners in measuring and comparing financial performance across firms with different business models, different accounting policies and different scales of operations.

Book Integrated Reporting Management

Download or read book Integrated Reporting Management written by Sean Stein Smith and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2018-11-09 with total page 293 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Integrated reporting in corporate communication is a process that results in improved communication, most visibly an ‘integrated report,’ about value creation over time. An integrated report is a concise communication about how an organization’s strategy, governance, performance, and prospects lead to the creation of value over the short, medium, and long term. It represents the integrated summarization of a company’s performance in terms of both financial and other relevant information. Integrated reporting provides greater context for performance data, clarifies how relevant information fits into operations or a business, and may help make decision making better in the long-term. The aim and scope of this book is to provide readers with an overview and analysis of the topics of both integrated financial reporting and a multiple capital model. Analyzing this topic through both a qualitative and quantitative framework, this important business topic is introduced and framed in the context of current market trends, while also including implications for business management professionals. This book provides a thorough examination of the topics of integrated reporting, management ramifications, and opportunities for management professionals. This easy to read and understand book provides numerous take away points, action items and implications. It includes real world examples, sources where more information can be obtained, and direct cause-to-effect examples, making it a valuable resource for readers.

Book Toward an Integrative Explanation of Corporate Financial Performance

Download or read book Toward an Integrative Explanation of Corporate Financial Performance written by N. Capon and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 414 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume is a milestone on our journey toward developing a more comprehensive understanding of the underpinnings of corporate financial performance. Weare concerned with both the factors that cause the financial performance of some firms to be better than others at a point in time and those factors that influence the trajectory of firm financial performance over time. In addressing these issues, we consider theoretical and empirical work on financial performance, drawn from several literatures, as well as present the results from our own empirical study. The review of the theoretical and empirical work is contemporary; the major portion of data comprising the empirical study was collected in the early 1980s as part of the Columbia Business School project on corporate strategic planning, but some data sequences extend into the mid-1980s and early 1990s. Our goals are to improve understanding of firm financial performance by developing a more integrated framework and to develop a research agenda based on what we have learned. This volume consists of four chapters, 12 appendices that provide detailed technical support and development for various portions of the discussion and an extensive set of references. It interweaves results from published literature in various fields with our original empirical work and develops an integrative approach to the study of firm fmancial performance.

Book Households as Corporate Firms

Download or read book Households as Corporate Firms written by Krislert Samphantharak and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2009-11-30 with total page 215 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This investigation proposes a conceptual framework for measurement necessary for an analysis of household finance and economic development. The authors build on and, where appropriate, modify corporate financial accounts to create balance sheets, income statements, and statements of cash flows for households in developing countries, using an integrated household survey. The authors also illustrate how to apply the accounts to an analysis of household finance that includes productivity of household enterprises, capital structure, liquidity, financing, and portfolio management. The conceptualization of this analysis has important implications for measurement, questionnaire design, the modeling of household decisions, and the analysis of panel data.
