En praktisk fremstilling af regelsættet om revisors skriftlige erklæringer.Erklæringsstandarderne, som danske revisorer, der er medlemmer af FSR – danske revisorer, skal følge, ændrer sig løbende, og det er derfor altid nødvendigt for en revisor at holde sig opdateret på seneste ændringer.Denne bog retter sig mod løsningen af en række konkrete problemstillinger, som en revisor kan støde på ved afgivelse af erklæringer.Bogen er tænkt som et praktisk værktøj, og fremstillingen falder i to dele:Del I gennemgår kravene til revisors erklæringer, og i den forbindelse behandles en række konkrete problemstillinger, der har vist sig med fortolkningen af erklæringsbekendtgørelsen.Del II indeholder en omfattende eksempelsamling, der illustrerer udformningen af erklæringer inden for store dele af de områder, som revisor må beskæftige sig med efter revisorlovgivningen.Nyt i 4. udgaveFor at understrege tilknytningen til de internationale standarder og tydeliggøre forskellen mellem de forskellige typer erklæringer, er revisionsstandarderne (RS’erne) erstattet af Internationale standarder udgivet af IFAC (De internationale standarder), og de nye standarder skal anvendes med virkning for erklæringer, der udarbejdes 1. juli 2012 eller senere. Endvidere er ISA 700, 705 og 706 samt ISA 800, 805 og 810 endeligt implementeret.MålgruppeBogen tjener som praktisk værktøj for revisorer og andre, som afgiver eller benytter skriftlige erklæringer i henhold til erklæringsbekendtgørelsen.Bogen kan desuden med stor fordel benyttes i undervisningen på revisorkandidatstudiet.Om forfatterneBogens forfattere – Kim Füchsel, Martin Lunden, Ole Tjørnelund Thomsen og Lars Engelund – har dels en baggrund fra Revisorkommissionen og FSR’s revisionstekniske udvalg og dels en praktisk indgangsvinkel som statsautoriserede revisorer.

Makroøkonomisk teori er kunsten at udarbejde en model, som er relevant for forståelsen af den samfundsøkonomi, som vi rent faktisk lever i. (Keynes, 1937)John Maynard Keynes, 1883-1946, var det 20. århundredes største og mest anerkendte økonom. Han udviklede teorien for makroøkonomisk analyse og principperne bag nationalregnskabet. Afsættet var krisen i 1930erne. Den lange periode med konstant velstandsstigning i efterkrigstiden gjorde overgangsvist Keynes' makroøkonomiske teorier mindre centrale. Den høje arbejdsløshed og den udeblevne vækst i dette århundrede skabte fornyet interesse for Keynes' makroøkonomiske teori og metode.Denne bog giver baggrunden for Keynes' teorier og bringer dem op til en helt aktuel diskussion af bl.a. bæredygtig udvikling, europæisk krise og offentlige budgetunderskud. Der er et åbenbart behov for, at Keynes atter får en central placering i de økonomiske lærebøger og i grundlaget for den økonomiske politik.IndholdsoversigtForordKapitel 1. En oversigtKapitel 2.

Udviklingen i den økonomiske teori er et historisk drama mindst lige så spændende som den "rigtige" historie. Den er befolket med store navne, der danner teoretiske skoler, som ofte ligger i strid med hinanden. Den teoretiske diskussion har gennem århundrederne afspejlet de skiftende økonomiske og politiske konjunkturer. Adam Smith bekæmpede merkantilismen med alle til rådighed stående argumenter. Karl Marx sloges med "vulgær-økonomerne", ligesom neoklassikerne måtte tage en hård tørn, inden de fik accepteret deres matematiske ligevægtsmodeller.Teorihistorien præsenteres med hovedvægten lagt på forholdsvis få, men centrale økonomiske skoler, som vurderes i forhold til hinanden. Skolerne karakteriseres ved nogle få personligheder og disses hovedværker.Den økonomiske teoris historie er skrevet af 3 etablerede økonomer med sigte på at give en kort, men selvstændig fremstilling. Den udgør dog samtidig en nyttig og sammenhængende baggrundsviden ved læsningen af de enkelte bind i serien "Økonomiens Konger".IndholdsoversigtForordKapitel 1.

Den danske model har en lang historie. Først som institutionaliseret klassekamp, siden som myte. For det meste lovprist og berømmet, sjældent kritiseret og analyseret."Myten om den danske model" handler om, hvordan overenskomstsystemet har opnået selvstændighed fra de politiske institutioner, men samtidig altid været del af en politisk, endda demokratisk, styreform. I dag er den danske model mere end blot en måde at organisere arbejdsmarkedets parter på. Den skal snarere ses som en vigtig del af en samfundsmodel, hvor parter og politikere til daglig spiller med og mod hinanden. Ove K. Pedersen (f. 1948) er uddannet i statskundskab, har i mange år været professor ved flere danske universiteter samt gæsteprofessor ved udenlandske universiteter: Han er dr.phil. og er forfatter til en lang række bøger på dansk og engelsk, blandt andet den indflydelsesrige "Konkurrencestaten" (2011), "Markedsstaten" (2014) og "The National Origins of Policy Ideas" (2014). Senest er "Reaktionens tid" (2018) udkommet på Informations Forlag.

Tracing the history of capitalism in England and beyond, Karl Polanyi's landmark 1944 classic brilliantly exposed the myth of laissez-faire economics. From the great transformation that occurred during the industrial revolution onwards, he showed, there has been nothing 'natural' about the market state. Instead, the economy must always be embedded in society, and human needs and relations. Witnessing the 'avalanche of social dislocation' of his time - from the Great Depression, to the rise of fascism and communism and the First and Second World Wars - Polanyi ends with a rallying cry for freedom, and a passionate vision to protect our common humanity.

'A compelling narrative of the human story' TIM MARSHALL, author of Prisoners of Geography'Lively, rich and exciting... full of surprises' PETER FRANKOPAN, author of The Silk Roads_____________Sand, salt, iron, copper, oil and lithium. They built our world, and they will transform our future.These are the six most crucial substances in human history. They took us from the Dark Ages to the present day. They power our computers and phones, build our homes and offices, and create life-saving medicines. But most of us take them completely for granted.In Material World, Ed Conway travels the globe - from the sweltering depths of the deepest mine in Europe, to spotless silicon chip factories in Taiwan, to the eerie green pools where lithium originates - to uncover a secret world we rarely see. Revealing the true marvel of these substances, he follows the mind-boggling journeys, miraculous processes and little-known companies that turn the raw materials we all need into products of astonishing complexity.As we wrestle with climate change, energy crises and the threat of new global conflict, Conway shows why these substances matter more than ever before, and how the hidden battle to control them will shape our geopolitical future. This is the story of civilisation - our ambitions and glory, innovations and appetites - from a new perspective: literally from the ground up.

A major reappraisal, by the Nobel-prizewinning economist, of the relationship between capitalism and freedomDespite its manifest failures, the narrative of neoliberalism retains its grip on the public mind and the policies of governments all over the world. By this narrative, less regulation and more 'animal spirits' capitalism produces not only greater prosperity, but more freedom for individuals in society - and is therefore morally better.But, in The Road to Freedom Stiglitz asks, whose freedom are we - should we be - thinking about? What happens when one person's freedom comes at the expense of another's? Should the freedoms of corporations be allowed to impinge upon those of individuals in the ways they now do?Taking on giants of neoliberalism such as Hayek and Friedman and examining how public opinion is formed, Stiglitz reclaims the language of freedom from the right to show that far from 'free' - unregulated - markets promoting growth and enterprise, they in fact reduce it, lessening economic opportunities for majorities and siphoning wealth from the many to the few - both individuals and countries. He shows how neoliberal economics and its implied moral system have impacted our legal and social freedoms in surprising ways, from property and intellectual rights, to education and social media.Stiglitz's eye, as always, is on how we might create the true human flourishing which should be the great aim of our economic and social system, and offers an alternative to that prevailing today. The Road to Freedom offers a powerful re-evaluation of democracy, economics and what constitutes a good society-and provides a roadmap of how we might achieve it.

PRAISE FOR THE CREDIT INVESTOR'S HANDBOOK "Credit analysis is an underappreciated skill that is essential for investing a cross all asset classes, private and public. Michael's book is an incredibly detailed, step-by-step 'how-to' manual for analyzing credit investments, from performing to distressed, and understanding the complexities of the bankruptcy process." --Joyce Chang, Chair of Global Research, JP Morgan "While there are many books on investing in equities, until now, there were virtually no comprehensive books on investing in debt. The Credit Investor's Handbook fills this gap. While the book is focused on the debt markets, its analytical approach is extremely relevant to equities investors. Furthermore, Michael's use of real-life examples and humor make it an enjoyable read. The Credit Investor's Handbook is a 'must-read'for anyone pursuing a career in research, investment banking, capital allocation, and, most importantly, investing in an ever-evolving global marketplace." --Mario Gabelli, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Gabelli Funds "The Credit Investor's Handbook is an extraordinarily comprehensive look at credit investment strategies. It is chock full of rich examples that are bound to be useful in assessing the credit excesses that will undoubtedly unravel in the years ahead. I wish someone had handed me a copy when I came into the business." --Seth A. Klarman, CEO and Portfolio Manager, The Baupost Group "When I got my pre-publication copy of The Credit Investor's Handbook, I turned first to the chapters on distressed debt investing. I found a very helpful, logically organized introduction to the process and some fascinating 'warstories.'Like all good investment books, The Handbook doesn't purport to be a how-to that will yield easy profits, but it does a great job of explaining the elements that must be mastered." --Howard Marks, Co-Chairman, Oaktree Capital Management "Michael's excellent book, The Credit Investor's Handbook, is like a traditional bank's training program on steroids. It offers the same kind of detailed, real-life grounding in financial analysis that was critical to my early success on Wall Street. The book teaches you the practical skills needed to succeed and steers you away from academic theories that don't work in the real world of credit markets. Michael is a great teacher with the unique ability to breakdown complex analysis into simple steps, making it easy to learn. He also brings the same passion and terrific sense of humor he uses in his classroom to the pages of this textbook. I highly recommend it as a 'must-read'for all up-and-coming credit analysts." --Harvey Schwartz, CEO of the Carlyle Group

Don't let them."You'll learn how to build a solid foundation for investing by focusing on these four essential lessons, each of which builds upon the other.

All organizations are becoming service organizations. But most weren't built to deliver services successfully end-to-end, and the human, operational and financial impacts are abundantly clear. In the digital era the stakes are even higher, given how rapidly services change. Yet default working practices (governance, planning, funding, leadership, reporting, programme and team structures) inside large organizations haven't changed. Rather than modernize just one service at a time, it's the underlying organizational conditions that need to be transformed - anything less is futile. The Service Organization is the result of years of research and consulting, as well as dozens of interviews with executives. It explores significant challenges that leaders will recognize, and turns them into solvable puzzles by providing practical advice and tools that reimagine what the organization does from the perspective of its customers - and it organizes the activity needed to deliver the best outcomes. This book is for everyone involved, from designers to technologists and from operational staff to policymakers and leaders. It includes surprisingly simple and doable, but non-obvious, steps that don't depend on seniority or pay band and that are typically overlooked by even the most progressive professions, teams and companies. Kate Tarling sets a bold, ambitious and practical agenda for all service organizations. Her book is full of behind-the-scenes examples from the global companies, public sector bodies and non-profits that are now delivering and leading successful services. It shows how to reinvent organizations so they rely not just on 'transforming technology' but on putting the success of their services at the heart of how they operate.

A FINANCIAL TIMES BOOK OF THE YEARA call to action for the creative class and labour movement to rally against the power of Big Tech and Big Media.Corporate concentration has breached the stratosphere, as have corporate profits. An ever-expanding constellation of industries are now monopolies (where sellers have excessive power over buyers) or monopsonies (where buyers hold the whip hand over sellers) - or both.Scholar Rebecca Giblin and writer and activist Cory Doctorow argue we're in a new era of 'chokepoint capitalism', with exploitative businesses creating insurmountable barriers to competition that enable them to capture value that should rightfully go to others. All workers are weakened by this, but the problem is especially well illustrated by the plight of creative workers. From Amazon's use of digital rights management and bundling to radically change the economics of book publishing, to Google and Facebook's siphoning away of ad revenues from news media, and the Big Three record labels' use of inordinately long contracts to up their own margins at the cost of artists, chokepoints are everywhere.By analysing book publishing and news, live music and music streaming, screenwriting, radio, and more, Giblin and Doctorow deftly show how powerful corporations construct 'anti-competitive flywheels' designed to lock in users and suppliers, make their markets hostile to new entrants, and then force workers and suppliers to accept unfairly low prices.Chokepoint Capitalism is a call to workers of all sectors to unite to help smash these chokepoints and take back the power and profit that's being heisted away - before it's too late.

The Wealth of Nations offers one of the first collected descriptions of what builds nations' wealth, and is a fundamental work in classical economics. Smith explores such broad topics as the division of labour, productivity, and free markets.
