However, FVA can count on broad support from the accounting profession, standard setters and regulators. For  instance, in a recent speech, Nick Le Pan, Canada’s former Superintendent of Financial Institutions, argued that FVA is only a messenger and should not be criticized 英语的多元化日语论文

for merely reflecting  the poor underlying economic outlook.6  Barbara Roper, from the Consumer Federation  of  America,  argues  that  sound  accounting  principles,  such  as  FVA,  led  to  the exposure of underlying problem assets. In her  view,  FVA provides more accurate, timely and comparable information to investors than any other accounting alternative.


Theoretical and Empirical Foundations Underlying FVA

FVA’s theoretical and empirical premises are relatively solid. In fact, it is one of the few accounting  standard that can be traced back directly to accounting-based scientific research. More specifically, there is  consistent empirical evidence, accumulated over the past 20 years, that a firm’s stock price is more closely  associated with the market value of its underlying financial or real assets than with their historical cost, i.e.,  their purchase price plus related expenses.7  The superior relevance of market-derived values is even more obvious in the case of financial derivatives which historical cost is often close to zero but which market value can fluctuate widely.8  In other words, fair values, or marked to market values, have been found to be more relevant indicators of firm value than traditional historical cost-based figures.9 浅析网络时代背景下中国的自助旅游市场

An interesting early study on the relevance and implications from FVA was performed by Bernard, Merton and Palepu (1995). For many years, Denmark’s accounting standard-setting and banking regulatory authorities have  relied on mark-to-market valuation for the assets of their commercial banks.10  Bernard, Merton and Palepu  find that Danish banks’ book values, which reflect mark-to-market valuations, seem to provide more reliable information to investors than historical cost-based figures then provided by U.S. banks. Moreover, they do not find evidence hat Danish  bank  executives  manipulate  mark-to-market  numbers that Danish

9  While studies take many different forms, the most widely used approach closely resembles the following
(simplified version of a regression):

Priceit = β0  + β1Assets(at costs)it  + β2Liabilitiesit + β3Unrealized Gain(Loss)it

Where i represents a specific firm, and t, a given year-end. Variables are measured in $, in $ per share, or standardized by proxies for firm size. Price equals a firm’s stock market price while both Assets and Liabilities are as on the balance sheet (consistent with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles). Unrealized Gains(Losses) reflect the difference between an asset market value (according to FVA) and its book value (according to GAAP). FVA-measured information is deemed to be more relevant for investors if results from the regression model show that β3 is positive and statistically significant.
