Creative Accounting and the Cross-Eyed Javelin Thrower Doreen J. McBarnet

Creative accounting, as highlighted in the best selling books of Terry Smith and Ian Griffiths, was one of the key themes in corporate finance in the 1980s. The control of creative accounting has been a major issue of the 1990s. This book looks at the regulatory response to creative accounting and the role olf the Financial Reporting Review Panel, under Sir David Tweedie, in policing company accounts. The book is about the contest for the control of creative accounting, a contest in which Sir David Tweedie describes the Financial Reporting Review Panel as a like a cross--eyed javelin thrower at the Olympic Gamesa .

Creative Accounting and the Cross-Eyed Javelin Thrower Bewertungen

"This booka s striking title is carried through into its structure and style, all evidently aimed at making it accessible to a wide readership of practitioners and not just stuffy academics. This is certainly a welcome change from the stodgy prose of most writing on financial regulation." ---- Journal of Law Society, September 2000 "I would certainly put this book in the category of essential reading for anyone involved in preparing company accounts." ----Accounting Technician, April 2001
