This unexpurgated bible of the business world explodes the myth that profits are governed by a set of common principles and guidelines, showing how companies manipulate their reported results. Illustrated here with some of the most recent examples of corporate creativity are all the very latest schemes for tampering with taxation, flattering the fixed assets, pilfering the pension fund and many other ways of cooking the books, yet staying inside the law.
