| babic | The existence of high-quality financial reporting itself cannot guarantee high quality earnings, but it allows the investor to make such an assessment. |
| ascruggs92 | B. If management is trying to hide something, high reporting quality could actually decrease the value of the company (i.e. Enron) |
| davidt87 | how, are you using Enron as an example of high reporting quality? one of the largest accounting firms in the world basically disappeared over night for signing off on Enrons financials... babic is right |
I used your notes and passed ... highly recommended!
