A multinational company is exposed to some exchange risk when it generates revenues or expenses in foreign currencies. Currency exchange-rate fluctuations are expected because many currencies are not tied to the US dollar. In order to report consolidated financial statements, companies must effectively convert multiple currencies into a single reporting currency. Rapid fluctuations in currency rates could impact a parent company's income statement, even if local currency results remain the same. Under SFAS 52, Foreign Currency Translation, local currencies are translated into US dollars using current rates for assets and liabilities, historical rates for equity accounts, and current rates for income statement accounts. An important difficulty in analyzing and reporting currency fluctuat...
Most life insurance CFOs are well aware of the effect that a 1% movement in interest rates would have on their Generally Accepted Accounting Principles operating income. Very few, however, can quantify the effect such a movement would have on the economic value of their assets and liabilities. Sophisticated hedging programs for the equity risk generated by variable annuity living benefits are now commonplace, with most leading life insurers operating a mixture of dynamic and static hedging programs.

The organization and its stakeholders must be aligned with the new strategy. They must understand the way in which the firm's decisions ...

The fact General Growth has more assets than liabilities was key to other reorganizations in which equity holders retained some or all of their investment, Mr. Ackman said, speaking at the Ira Sohn Investment Research Conference on Wednesday [May 27].

Many public companies, and companies that plan to go public, attract investors by enhancing the value of their security offerings. Typical enhancements include warrants issued along with either common or preferred stock, redemption features, and conversion provisions in debt instruments or preferred stock. Complex accounting rules address the measurement and classification of detachable (or freestanding) warrants, convertible debt, and convertible or redeemable preferred stock. According to the 2005 and 2006 "Current SEC Issues," companies should first determine whether their warrants, convertible preferred stock, and convertible debt are within the scope of SFAS 150. Warrants not considered derivatives must be evaluated under Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) Issue 00-19, Accounting fo...
