With all the accounting upheaval Enron has caused, this book has perfect timing for anyone who is involved in the 'numbers game' of the accounting world.
Could not have come at a better time . . . .
This book could not have come at a better time, given the Enron debacle shocking investors, accountants, and politicians all over the world. Mulford and Comiskey explain what signs to look for in detecting earnings manipulation. They have gathered advice from expert analysts, CFOs, and CPAs, and provide real-world examples of aggressive and fraudulent financial reports. I have long viewed Mulford and Comiskey as experts in the field, and they did not let me down in their analysis of creative accounting procedures in The Financial Numbers Game. A great book!
