Creative Accounting

by Ian Griffiths

Creative Accounting explodes the myth that compamy profits are governed by externally laid down practices and guidelines, showing why and how a business manipulates its reported results. Drawing on recent examples of corporate creativity, this unexpurgated bible of the business world sets out the latest schemes and devices that businesses are using to beef up their balance sheets and to pamper their profit and loss accounts.
