294 pages. Temps de lecture estimé 3h40min.
In 2014, the U. S. government adopted a new quarterly statistic called gross output (GO), the most significance advance in national income accounting since gross domestic product (GDP) was developed in the 1940s. The announcement came as a triumph for Mark Skousen, who advocated GO nearly 25 years ago as an essential macroeconomic tool and a better way to measure the economy and the business cycle. Now it has become an official statistic issued quarterly by the Bureau of Economic Analysis at the U. S. Department of Commerce. In this new revised edition of Structure of Production, Skousen shows why GO is a more accurate and comprehensive measure of the economy because it includes business-to-business transactions that move the supply chain along to final use. (GDP measures the value of finished goods and services only, and omits B-to-B activity.) GO is an attempt to measure spending at all stages of production. Using GO, Skousen demonstrates that the supply-side of the business spending is far more important than consumer spending, is more consistent with economic growth theory, and a better measure of the business cycle.

Enron, Andersen, Worldcom: although these companies have stopped dominating the headlines, the shock waves they sent through the business community in 2002 have not yet subsided. The belief that accounting is an exact science has been shattered, while economic relations are upset by the knowledge that financial information may be untrustworthy. Yet the market economy profoundly requires relevant and reliable information about the activity and financial situation of businesses. Taking into account the increasing strength of capital markets and international investors, the authors outline the basic elements that could constitute a new, balanced system of accounting that would accompany the necessary changes in capitalism, particularly in France and the rest of Europe. This book is aimed at practicing accountants, business and corporate finance students, but also at any reader interested in an original and compelling perspective on the use and abuse of accounting in the business community. Nicolas Véron, a senior fellow at the Peterson Institute for International Economics in Washington, DC, is the co-founder of the European think tank Bruegel. He authored or co-authored numerous publications on banking supervision, crisis management, and financial reporting. Matthieu Autret is an economic expert who has worked for the European Commission and the World Bank. Alfred Galichon is a full professor at the department of economics of New York University and the current director of New York University in Paris. His research interests span across theoretical, computational, and empirical questions.

Tanzania is now the fourth poorest country in the world. Its economic development, since independence in 1961, has been characterized by a series of internal and external shocks that have tested the resilience of the economy, the stability of its institutions, and the tolerance and inventiveness of its people. This book presents information that will have profound implications for economic policy in Tanzania. Questioning earlier reports and conclusions, the authors reject official economic statistics as failing to give even a moderately accurate picture of economic developments. This study outlines the structure of the Tanzanian economy and considers the impact of previous policies and current stabilization and adjustment measures on the poorer segments of the Tanzanian population.

La crise financière a souligné le rôle essentiel des normes comptables internationales dans l'information des investisseurs. Cette crise a également remis sur le devant de la scène les débats autour de la juste valeur (fair value en anglais). Une polarisation excessive des normes comptables autour des prix de marché pourrait accroître la volatilité des résultats et des capitaux propres des entreprises. Pourtant, les normes comptables internationales ne sont pas responsables de la création des bulles immobilières ou financières. Elles ne font que traduire l'impact de leur accroissement ou de leur éclatement sur les comptes des entreprises. Plus que d'une remise en cause des normes IFRS et du principe de juste valeur, ce qui importe aujourd'hui c'est de comprendre les principes qui sous-tendent les normes IFRS et de pleinement exploiter les possibilités que ces normes offrent en matière d'information tant des investisseurs que de toutes les parties prenantes. Les normes IFRS sortent du cadre purement comptable pour toucher aux exigences de gouvernance des entreprises et, en particulier, au besoin de rendre compte des actions effectuées, des décisions prises, et de leur impact sur la création de valeur économique. Pour remplir pleinement leur rôle, les normes IFRS supposent également que les acteurs de leur application et de leur contrôle acceptent d'assumer pleinement leur responsabilité. La complexité des transactions économiques et financières s'appuie sur des techniques précises et codifiées mais, à un certain niveau, cette complexité ne peut être appréhendée que par des choix humains que les normes IFRS invitent à faire apparaître.

La crise financière a souligné le rôle essentiel des normes comptables internationales dans l'information des investisseurs. Cette crise a également remis sur le devant de la scène les débats autour de la juste valeur (fair value en anglais). Une polarisation excessive des normes comptables autour des prix de marché pourrait accroître la volatilité des résultats et des capitaux propres des entreprises. Pourtant, les normes comptables internationales ne sont pas responsables de la création des bulles immobilières ou financières. Elles ne font que traduire l'impact de leur accroissement ou de leur éclatement sur les comptes des entreprises. Plus que d'une remise en cause des normes IFRS et du principe de juste valeur, ce qui importe aujourd'hui c'est de comprendre les principes qui sous-tendent les normes IFRS et de pleinement exploiter les possibilités que ces normes offrent en matière d'information tant des investisseurs que de toutes les parties prenantes. Les normes IFRS sortent du cadre purement comptable pour toucher aux exigences de gouvernance des entreprises et, en particulier, au besoin de rendre compte des actions effectuées, des décisions prises, et de leur impact sur la création de valeur économique. Pour remplir pleinement leur rôle, les normes IFRS supposent également que les acteurs de leur application et de leur contrôle acceptent d'assumer pleinement leur responsabilité. La complexité des transactions économiques et financières s'appuie sur des techniques précises et codifiées mais, à un certain niveau, cette complexité ne peut être appréhendée que par des choix humains que les normes IFRS invitent à faire apparaître.

Le contrôle de gestion est une discipline en pleine évolution. L'actualité y fait de plus en plus référence, même si son contenu et ses objectifs restent encore bien mystérieux. Les spécialistes, anglo-saxons pour la plupart, tentent de répondre à cet engouement en développant de nouveaux outils orientés sur le pilotage des coûts et des performances. L'objectif principal de cet ouvrage est de les étudier. Ce livre s'inscrit donc dans une démarche d'approfondissement et de réflexion. Il requiert des connaissances préalables en comptabilité de gestion, en contrôle de gestion et en management. Il s'adresse : à des étudiants en troisièmes cycles professionnels (Masters professionnels) spécialisés en contrôle de gestion, pilotage et finance des organisations, ainsi qu'à des étudiants préparant les examens d'expertise comptable (nouveaux programmes) ; aux chercheurs en Sciences de gestion spécialisés en contrôle de gestion et en pilotage des organisations ; et aux managers d'entreprises occupant des fonctions dans les domaines du contrôle de gestion et du pilotage organisationnel (responsables de divisions, de centres de profits...).

301 pages. Temps de lecture estimé 3h46min.
Cet ouvrage évoque en dix-sept chapitres les auteurs qui, à des titres et dans des contextes divers, ont participé à lémergence de la comptabilité moderne. Chacun de ces « grands » auteurs est situé dans son époque et sa contribution à la théorie, à la pratique ou à l’enseignement de la comptabilité est interprétée par référence au contexte culturel, économique et social de cette époque. Plus qu’une galerie de portraits d’auteurs, plus ou moins connus, cet ouvrage se veut un retour aux sources et l’esquisse d’une histoire de la pensée comptable qui va de l’illustre florentin Luca Pacioli jusqu’aux grands chercheurs contemporains, anglo-saxons. Les étudiants, les chercheurs et les praticiens y trouveront les origines de concepts et de méthodes encore souvent débattus. Peut-être seront-ils par exemple surpris d’apprendre, que dès la fin du XIXe siècle, le concept de « juste valeur » ou de valeur de marché avait, comme aujourd’hui, ses farouches détracteurs et ses fervents défenseurs. Comme souvent, ainsi que le lecteur le découvrira au fil des pages de cet ouvrage, l’histoire de la pensée peut éclairer et relativiser les débats du présent.
