This important book addresses this problem by providing a coherent explanation of the accounting and finance problems associated with the collapse. The Skilling-Lay trial, as it is related to accounting or finance issues, is critically described as well. Through its well-balanced take on events surrounding the trial, the book therefore enables readers to analyze the validity of the arguments offered by the U.S. attorneys. 606 $aCorporations$xCorrupt practices$zUnited States$vCase studies 615 0$aCorporations$xCorrupt practices 676 $a364.1680973 700 $aBierman$b Harold$0151177 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910782315503321 996 $aAccounting$93737937 997 $aUNINA
