Accounting Versus Finance (graded) Much of the
analysis done by financial managers is based on
numbers that are different from what would seem
to the corresponding numbers presented in the
financial statements. This difference is not due
to any kind of cooking the books or other
attempts to mislead anyone. One example is the
use of market value rather than historical cost
in the valuation of assets. What are some other
examples of the differences between financial
management and financial accounting?
