The Financial Numbers Game, Detecting Creative Accounting Practices

With a certain mind-numbing frequency, users of financial statements—investors and creditors—find themselves buffeted with announcements of accounting irregularities. These irregularities are called many things, including aggressive accounting, earnings management, income smoothing, and fraudulent financial reporting. While they may vary in the degree to which they misreport financial resul…

Public Administration and Business$ Administration: Siamese Management Tw…

Countless scholars and practitioners over the years have attempted to legitimize the field of public administration, make sense of  the  so-­‐called  public administration dichotomy, and to reinforce  or erase the connections  between public  administration and its more popular  and more perhaps more heartless sibling, business administration.

Regional Integrated Management Information System

MACROECONOMICS

We have designed this book to be a supplement to Robert J. Barro’s Macroeconomics, which is the textbook that is used in introductory macroeconomics courses at the University of Chicago.

In particular, Barro relies almost exclusively on economic in…

Hidden Financial Risk

I started writing articles on such topics in the 1980s and published them in obscure academic journals. Then in January 1996 I began writing the “Spirit of Accounting” col- umn for Accounting Today with my friend Paul Miller. I needed a break in 2000, so I quit the column; Paul Bahnson joined Paul Miller on it. After a year’s respite, I found myself writing “Accounting Annotations” fo…
