Review Business Valuation Discounts and Premiums / Wiley:Business Valuation Discounts and Premiums There is often more money in dispute in determining the discounts and premiums in a business valuation than in arriving at the pre-discount valuation itself. Discounts and premiums affect not only the value of the company but also play a crucial role in determining the risk involved, control issues, marketability, contingent liability, and a host of other factors that can make or break a deal. It is essential that every appraiser know when discounts and premiums apply and how to quantify them. Shannon Pratt’s Business Valuation Discounts and Premiums compiles all the key information you need to successfully and accurately determine discounts and premiums in business valuations. It explores the three areas of discounts and premiums–income valuation, market valuation, and the asset approach–explaining how different discounts or premiums may be applicable, depending on the basic valuation approach used, and how each approach can affect the outcome. Filled with many never-before-published studies, the comprehensive coverage includes: Strategic acquisitions Extensive empirical data Pre-IPO marketability discount studies Merger and acquisition negotiations, empirical evidence from completed transactions, and positions taken by courts in litigation Strategic acquisitions on premiums Studies on minority discounts, available for the first time Written by a recognized authority on business valuation, this book will help you master the complex issues and exploit the numerous uses for premiums and discounts to their utmost.

Review Risk Management: Value at Risk and Beyond / Cambridge University Press:The theory of Value at Risk (VaR), which quantifies the probability of large losses in financial transactions, won the Nobel Prize in economics for Robert Merton. As trading systems have become more complex, however, the dangers of very large losses have become more acute. The near collapse of the hedge fund Long-Term Capital Management, based on the VaR theory, is perhaps the most spectacular example: it was not stable against large and sudden fluctuations in the financial markets. This collection of papers by leading researchers addresses the weaknesses of VaR and how it might be possible to circumvent them. A crucial question is to establish what is a good measure of risk, and the further developments of VaR are considered in this light.

Review Cost Management: Measuring, Monitoring, and Motivating Performance (Management Accounting) / Wiley:Cost Management" was written in response to changes in the global business environment. Unbridled access to information and intense competition has meant that cost accounting has become an increasingly important tool for managers and accountants alike. Most textbooks focus on content knowledge and then expect students to 'magically' demonstrate skills such as decision-making and critical thinking. "Cost Management" better prepares students for professional success by bridging the gaps between Knowledge, Skills and Abilities. Many students fail to recognize the assumptions, limitations, behavioral implications and qualitative factors that influence managerial decision-making. The dynamic, new author team focuses on cost accounting methods, techniques and the quality of cost accounting information used for decision-making to deliver a thoroughly modern treatment of cost accounting topics.

Review Formulating, Financing & Monitoring SME's / Ministry In Art:This book deals with the identification of promising business enterprises, their feasibility and viability appraisal, documentation for bank financing and monitoring. It distinguishes such enterprises from 'sunset projects' and is specially structured for use by all those interested in both new and existing economic ventures requiring restructuring. Apart from covering the legal and other classifications of different forms of financial instruments used in the world of corporate finance, the book draws attention to the distinction between financial and economic analysis. One whole chapter is devoted to the peculiar problems of small and medium-scale enterprises [SMEs] in which many policy makers, banks, development finance institutions, business promoters and their consultants are especially interested. The book is however structured in a way that does commend it also to those interested in much bigger enterprises. The author [whose fuller background is given inside the book] happens to have had the opportunity and pleasure of being trained by both The World Bank at its EDI, in and outside Washington DC, USA, as well as by the former [British] Commonwealth Development Corporation [CDC]. He spent almost his entire working life in development finance institutions during which he was Managing Director and CEO for nearly ten years. He played rather crucial roles in spearheading the promotion and financing of big and small enterprises with special credits from The World Bank and other major national and international credit institutions around the world. With educational background that spans theoretical economics, accounting, statistics and commercial law, he is well endowed in terms of academic, professional, and occupational background that encompasses pure Government business at Cabinet Ministerial level, to write authoritatively on all aspects of this most important subject.

Review Real Options in Capital Investment: Models, Strategies, and Applications / Praeger Publishers:This compilation integrates various new contributions to the growing "real options" literature. Recent developments in the valuation of capital investment opportunities seen as real options (e. g. to defer, expand, abandon, or switch use) have provided the tools and unlocked the possibilities to revolutionize the field of capital budgeting. The resulting insights, strategies, and techniques enable quantifying the thus far elusive elements of managerial flexibility and various strategic interactions. In an uncertain and constantly changing world marketplace, managerial operating flexibility and strategic adaptability are vital to successfully capitalize on favorable future investment opportunities or limit losses from adverse market developments. This book presents various models and operating strategies, and a variety of applications ranging from acquisitions and divestitures, to natural resource development and pollution compliance. The book's contributions are divided into five parts, covering sections on real options and alternative valuation paradigms for capital investment analysis; on the analysis of general exchange or switching options, and interdependencies among multiple such options; on strategic acquisitions, infrastructure, and foreign investment options; on mean reversion/ alternative formulations in natural resource investments, shipping, and start-up ventures; and on other applications in pollution compliance, land development, flexible manufacturing, and financial default options. Both academic and practitioner interest in these developments is unusually high. The book can serve as supplementary material for the academic market, e. [+]
g. , in advanced finance courses in option pricing or capital budgeting, in doctoral seminars, and as a library resource. It may also be of interest to the professional market (e. g. corporate planners and finance executives in the oil, pharmaceutical, auto and a variety of other industries), academics from related areas (e. g. decision analysts or economists), as well as to international readers (academics, doctoral students, and professionals).
