ACCOUNTING FOR M&A EQUITY AND CREDIT ANALYSTS MORRIS J. Księgarnia

This is not, by any means, another financial accounting textbook. Instead, I intend it as a sort of spotlight, illuminating what I have found in my investment experience to be the 'black holes' of accounting. It is merely the collected answers to the questions that analysts (associates, vice presidents, managing directors and clients as well) have asked me during the time I spent giving accounting advice on Wall Street." From the Preface

Investment professionals too often regard the acquisition of accounting knowledge as a necessary evil-and, therefore, too often know less than they should. This lack of knowledge often leads to simple misunderstandings or even out and out errors that, at best, serve as minor speed bumps in a high-stakes transaction and, at worst, lead to the delay or even derailing of the deals in question.

Accounting for M&A, Equity, and Credit Analysts helps investment professionals as well as undergraduate and graduate students of investment banking ensure that they will always be able to quickly and confidently get their hands on the right answers to virtually every accounting question. Providing easy-access accounting information without needless detail and CPA doublespeak, this invaluable reference distinguishes itself from other texts of its type in four major areas as it:

Bypasses common-knowledge accounting basics to concentrate only on information vital to investment analysts

Takes an investment banking perspective as opposed to one solely focused on Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) and reporting

Integrates financial modeling and spreadsheet approaches that are essential to forecasting and analysis

Provides in-depth coverage of items in enterprise valuation and business combination transactions

In the investment profession, few factors are as valuable or overlooked as solid knowledge in accounting. Unfortunately, when professionals seek to increase their accounting expertise, they are too often faced with either cartoonish workbooks or incomprehensible, 600-page textbooks.

Accounting for M&A, Equity, and Credit Analysts provides investment professionals, analysts, and bankers with only the information they need to understand how accounting impacts their everyday environment. The first investment accounting desk reference to bridge the gap between what is taught in business school and what is actually needed in the real world, it allows investment pros to focus on and truly understand the vital accounting details they encounter every day and helps them ensure that minor accounting misunderstandings or mistakes won't mushroom into major deal-killers.
