Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The issue of corporate performance had been vigorously addressed in the literature using traditional accounting metrics. However, contemporary studies now focus on corporate sustainability in terms of value creation and how constituents of a firm are compensated for their efforts at generating the value. The current research challenge is therefore on how to appropriately define and measure firm value, bearing in mind several stakeholders that have diverse and often conflicting interests in a firm. This paper fills this gap by using stakeholder perspective to explain the concept of value creation and by providing theoretical framework and methodology for measuring the value created and appropriated by a firm. It is established that value creation can be measured using (1) the difference between output value and inputs value, (2) the sum of the economic rewards given to stakeholders and 3) the true cash flows generated by a firm. The paper concludes that since the traditional accounting metrics have some limitations and since investors do not value accounting earnings but cash that is truly generated from a firm' operations, a quantity that denotes value to diverse stakeholders of a firm should be used to measure firm value.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The notion of “value creation” is central to strategy, but its exact meaning is often unclear. Confusion arises because value creation can be reasonably defined in two different ways: (1) as the total economic value created by a firm within a specific interval of time, and (2) as the change in this value over longer intervals. To formalize the latter notion of value creation, we introduce the concept of economic gain, defined as the increase in economic surplus generated by the firm between one time period and another. We discuss the advantages of this concept and show that economic gain can arise through innovation and improvement or through the growth and replication of a superior firm. We complement these discussions with a formal measurement framework that quantifies economic gain from innovation and its distribution among stakeholders, including the firm's shareholders, managers, employees, suppliers, and customers. As an empirical illustration, we apply the framework to compare value creation and distribution by Southwest Airlines and American Airlines between 1980 and 2010.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The notion of value creation by firms is central to strategy. Despite its importance, value creation has been defined in many different ways, often with a narrow focus on shareholders, which can lead to confusion about the notion. In this paper, we clarify some commonly used concepts of value creation. We then discuss one particular concept: economic gain, or the change in economic value created from one period to the next. We elaborate on how such value is created by the firm and distributed among a set of stakeholders, including shareholders, managers, employees, suppliers and customers. We conclude by introducing a method for quantifying this gain and its distribution among stakeholders of the firm.

Book excerpt: In related work we introduce the VCA model to estimate the economic value created by a firm and appropriated by its stakeholders, including employees, shareholders, suppliers and customers. This study provides two specific empirical applications. In the first, we use publicly available data from the US airline industry to illustrate how the basic VCA model can be applied and extended to include multiple stakeholder groups. In the second application, we provide estimates for three global automobile companies (GM, Toyota and Nissan), showing how the model can be reformulated using value added when data on suppliers are not available. In both industries we find substantial heterogeneity among firms in the creation and distribution of economic value.

Download or read book Digitalization and Firm Performance written by Milena Ratajczak-Mrozek and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-12-02 with total page 327 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores how digitalization and digital technologies influence markets, firms, financial institutions and organizations. Drawing on examples from Canada, Poland, France, Albania, Africa and Turkey this book takes a truly international perspective. It explores the technical aspects of digitalization, with chapters examining topics like how digitization creates value in a small company, how digital-driven business drives innovation, how import-exporting firms can increase productivity within the digital economy and how financial systems and institutions evolve due to new technologies. However, the book goes beyond this and, by adopting a holistic view, examines the social impact of digitalization, with the authors discussing how trade unions and employers present Industry 4.0 to employees and the general public. This book will be of interest to anyone studying digital innovation, digital management, digital strategy, Fin Tech, firm management, and Industry 4.0.

Download or read book Benefiting from Innovation written by Michael G. Jacobides and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Extending Teece's landmark 1986 article, we consider how innovators benefit from value appropriation and creation. We elaborate on value appropriation, first by pointing out the importance of "industry architectures", i.e. sector-wide templates that circumscribe the division of labor; and second, by treating complementarity and factor mobility as distinctive components of cospecialization. This allows us to qualify Teece's prediction, by positing that firms can create an "architectural advantage" in terms of high levels of value appropriation without the need to engage in vertical integration. Such architectural advantage comes about when firms can enhance both complementarity and mobility in parts of the value chain where they are not active. We then elaborate on value creation by indicating how actors can benefit from investing in assets that appreciate because of innovation, which suggests that firms can benefit from encouraging imitation while investing in complementary assets. We also consider how investment in complementary assets changes the scope of the firm and thereby the development of capabilities that support future innovation. Finally, we provide an integrative guide that explains how firms should manage their position along the value chain to capture returns from innovation, thus extending and qualifying Teece's (1986) original predictions and prescriptions.

Download or read book The Development of the Resource Based Firm Between Value Appropriation and Value Creation written by Arabella Mocciaro and published by . This book was released on 2005 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Various authors have brought forth the idea that the increase in context turbulence and the relentless change in today's economic and competitive environments have rendered it essential for an effective firm strategy to combine both value appropriation and value creation (Porter, 1996; Moran and Ghoshal, 1999; Venkataraman and Sarasvathy, 2001; Hitt et al., 2001b). Nonetheless, the methodological bases and the assumptions that characterize contributions concerning value appropriation and value creation are notably different and in many respects opposite to one another. These profound methodological differences hinder the possibility of a combined consideration of value appropriation and value creation issues within a coherent interpretative framework. By reinterpreting more conventional strategy studies in the light of the Austrian process view, this article builds a process framework which is able to consider and render mutually compatible both value appropriation and value creation within the unitary process of firm development. In addition, the use of the Austrian approach as an interpretative lens enables an evolution and extension of the resource-based theory that consents it, not only to grasp the mechanisms behind value appropriation, but also to suggest new ways of viewing post-industrial firm behavior that help to interpret its dynamic and proactive role in the value creation process.

Download or read book Incremental Value Creation and Appropriation in a World with Multiple Stakeholders written by Roberto Garcia-Castro and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 24 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is a renewed interest among strategy scholars in the relationship between stakeholder theory and the dynamics of value creation-appropriation in firms. Further advancements in this field are arguably impeded by an incomplete conceptualization and measurement of value and by scant characterization of the different patterns of stakeholder value appropriation. We develop a conceptual framework -- based on an analytical taxonomy of value creation and appropriation -- consistent with a more complete notion of value and wherein the trade-offs in stakeholder value appropriation can be included. In essence, our analytical taxonomy contributes to enlarge the spectrum of value creation-appropriation scenarios to be considered by researchers working on the stakeholder view of strategy.

Download or read book Value Appropriation Within a Business Network written by Chris Ellegaard and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper explores the interplay between value creation and appropriation of value by firms within a business network context. These two value processes are inter-linked. Collectively firms create a product of value to an end consumer and a part of that value is appropriated by each firm in the network. Value appropriation is composed of a number of different negotiation processes, value and cost moving between exchange parties and price making and taking spread across time. Value appropriation is a process. Value appropriation is important to a firm's survival. Firms that appropriate a greater proportion of the value captured by the network, relative to their resource base and costs, will be more profitable. These firms are able to invest in new technologies, resources and business relationships to continually develop their network positions. Value creation in a business network is a result of individual firm efforts, either independently or in relationships. Equally, firms work alone and in groups to appropriate value. Understanding the dynamics and linkages between value creation and appropriation allows a better understanding of how value is created by business firms and by value nets. In the final sections of the paper we present propositions for further research and make recommendations for managers.
