Virksomhedsøkonomi

Økonomifunktionen har i stigende grad succes med at effektivisere og automatisere traditionelle kerneopgaver indenfor compliance og kontrol.Det efterlader os groft sagt med to udgangsmuligheder:1: Vi kan overflødiggøre os selv eller2: Vi kan udnytte de ressourcer, automatiseringen frigiver, på anden visVi mener, at en virksomhed, der har fokus på værdiskabelse, bør vælge det sidste. Økonomifunktionens faglige og analytiske kompetencer har potentiale til at skabe langt mere værdi, end tilfældet er i mange virksomheder i dag. I denne bog giver vi en komplet guide til, hvordan økonomifunktionen bliver en uvurderlig partner for forretningen og ultimativt går fra at være et omkostningscenter til at blive et profitcenter.Vejen dertil går gennem en systematisk opbygning af det, vi kalder forretningspartnertankegang. Det indebærer blandt andet at alle medarbejdere i økonomifunktionen udvikler en stærk forretningsforståelse og begynder at se kolleger og chefer i hele virksomheden som kunder, der skal serviceres med værdiskabende og partnerskabsfokuseret rådgivning.Ved bogens afslutning er læseren klar til at indlede en stille revolution af økonomifunktionens rolle og værdiskabelsen i virksomheden.

Hvordan prissætter man som virksomhed en vare eller ydelse, så man tjener mest muligt? Det giver denne bog svaret på. Den dokumenterer, at de virksomheder, der sætter sig ind i prissætningens psykologi og derefter lægger den rigtige prisstrategi, kan få en slagkraftig konkurrencefordel og opnå et markant højere overskud. Bogens forfattere, Hermann Simon, Nicolai Broby Eckert og Søren Leth fra det førende pris- og markedsføringskonsulentfirma, Simon-Kucher & Partners, beskriver, hvordan man finder en vares værdi, og hvordan man prissætter på baggrund af denne viden – i stedet for at tage udgangspunkt i virksomhedens omkostninger. De giver også svaret på, hvorfor kunderne nogle gange bliver forargede over en pris, mens de andre gange knapt nok bemærker den. Med eksempler fra danske og internationale virksomheder viser forfatterne på en lettilgængelig måde, hvordan man med en gennemtænkt prisstrategi og adfærdsvidenskabelig indsigt kan nå kunderne mere effektivt – både digitalt og fysisk – og frem for alt få bundlinjen til at vokse.

From an award-winning financial historian comes the gripping, character-driven story of venture capital and the world it madeInnovations rarely come from "experts." Jeff Bezos was not a bookseller; Elon Musk was not in the auto industry. When it comes to innovation, a legendary venture capitalist told Sebastian Mallaby, the future cannot be predicted, it can only be discovered. Most attempts at discovery fail, but a few succeed at such a scale that they more than make up for everything else. That extreme ratio of success and failure is the power law that drives venture capital, Silicon Valley, the tech sector, and, by extension, the world.Drawing on unprecedented access to the most celebrated venture capitalists of all time, award-winning financial historian Sebastian Mallaby tells the story of this strange tribe of financiers who have funded the world's most successful companies, from Google to SpaceX to Alibaba. With a riveting blend of storytelling and analysis, The Power Law makes sense of the seeming randomness of success in venture capital, an industry that relies, for good and ill, on gut instinct and personality rather than spreadsheets and data. We learn the unvarnished truth about some of the most iconic triumphs and infamous disasters in the history of tech, from the comedy of errors that was the birth of Apple to the venture funding that fostered hubris at WeWork and Uber to the industry's notorious lack of women and ethnic minorities.Now the power law echoes around the world: it has transformed China's digital economy beyond recognition, and London is one of the top cities for venture capital investment. By taking us so deeply into the VCs' game, The Power Law helps us think about our own future through their eyes.

Lær at læse og vurdere en årsrapport Årsrapporten er en af de centrale kilder til information om en virksomhed, og det er derfor væsentligt at kende årsregnskabsreglerne og regnskabsvæsenets opgaver. Denne bog er skrevet som en hjælp til ledere med overordnet ansvar for en organisations årsregnskab, men som ikke har regnskabsmæssig baggrund. Bogen giver en overkommelig og alligevel grundig indføring i årsregnskab, årsrapport og virksomhedsanalyse. Bogens 1. del beskriver de enkelte elementer i en årsrapport med fokus på virksomhedsregnskabets opbygning. Bogens 2. del handler om virksomhedsanalyse og giver eksempler på modeller og metoder, ud fra hvilke virksomhedens regnskab kan analyseres. Bogen giver en viden, som er nyttig ved f.eks.:Forhandling om f.eks. kreditgivningKøb af ejerandele i virksomhederAflønning af ledelsenÅrsrapporten som middel til at informere virksomhedens samarbejdspartnereFremskaffelse af informationer om en virksomheds økonomi, som ikke er tilgængelige i årsrapportenMålgruppe Bogen henvender sig til personer uden forkundskaber i regnskabsvæsen, der i kraft af deres job har behov for kunne vurdere, formidle – og ikke mindst varetage ledelsesansvaret for – en virksomheds årsrapport. Desuden kan bogen med fordel læses af folk, der har et vist kendskab til regnskab, da man trænes i at bruge og forstå de relevante ordvalg, metoder og begreber, der anvendes ved udarbejdelse, læsning og analyse af årsrapporter. Bogen har fokus på beslutningstagere og studerende på de videregående uddannelser. Nyt i 6. udgave Siden 5. udgave i 2008 har flere lovændringer nødvendiggjort en ny udgave af bogen.

Unlock the power of shareholder capitalism -- a system that transcends zero-sum games and Wall Street stereotypes. In its essence, shareholder capitalism enables mutually beneficial trade, a concept ingrained in our human history for over 300,000 years. This approach fosters specialization, fuels innovation, and propels economic growth. In this engaging new book, David McLean explains how embracing shareholder capitalism doesn't negate the significance of other institutions; rather, it allows businesses to excel in providing the goods, services, and jobs that make society better off. Shareholder capitalism isn't about disregarding stakeholders; it thrives on mutually beneficial partnerships, and managers are entrusted to maximize shareholder value, focusing on companies' long-term success, which drives overall prosperity. Profits, the ultimate measure of value, steer businesses toward creating goods and services that benefit society. While shareholder capitalism is the overarching theme in Finance 101 courses, it is increasingly criticized, especially with the popularization of concepts like ESG investing and stakeholder capitalism. McLean argues that corporate social responsibility, while well-intentioned, shouldn't replace the democratic process in policymaking, and can lead to unintended consequences. Our journey through capitalism, beginning around 1800, has brought unprecedented prosperity, and it's essential to safeguard this system for the betterment of society, with democracy and free trade as our guiding beacons.

"Plunder is a startling investigation into the poorly understood, powerful force of private equity that is reshaping the American economy: raising prices, reducing quality, cutting jobs, increasing inequality, and shifting resources from productive parts of the economy to unproductive ones. Already transformative, private equity is poised to reshape the American economy in this decade the way that big tech did in the last decade, and subprime lenders the decade before that. And importantly, private equity is doing all of this not just with the acquiescence but the active support of the government. If you've ever wondered what happened to Toys R Us; why your doctor's bills are getting more expensive, why nursing homes are getting worse, why there is a housing shortage, why newspapers in Chicago and Los Angeles have gone downhill and local investigative reporting has dried up, Brendan Ballou's Plunder provides the reason why and provides a reform agenda spelling out how this industry can be stopped from wreaking further havoc. Brendan Ballou shows how private equity firms buy up companies using little or no investment, forcing them to take on huge debts and pay extractive fees, often wringing the life blood out of them, leaving them bankrupt or a shell of their former selves. Private equity's impact extends to the communities that have long depended on now- eviscerated companies for employment and prosperity. Perhaps most startling is Ballou's insight into how this is happening with the active support of government. Through vivid storytelling, Ballou's revelatory explanation of how private equity works shines a light on a part of Wall Street that is hastening the financialization of the American economy and increasing the power of banks and other institutions over companies that make and sell tangible products"--

This book provides a comprehensive overview of the rapidly expanding field of decentralized finance (DF) and discusses how entrepreneurs can leverage it in their business activities.Decentralized finance (DF) is a system for exchanging value without centralized intermediaries. It relies heavily on peer-to-peer lending and borrowing, decentralized exchanges, trustless systems, and blockchain. Decentralized Finance is seen as a disruptive technology that could replace traditional financial systems in the future due to its advantages of being inclusive, non-discriminatory, resilient to risk management failures, cost-effective for lenders and borrowers to access the system and more efficient in terms of financial intermediation through automated trustless systems. This book explains the challenges and opportunities that these blockchain-based financial innovations present for both entrepreneurship and the broader financial system.

Climate change, COVID-19, Ukraine: it seems that crises are here to stay, which poses major challenges for the financial management of companies. This book addresses these issues, and present concrete approaches to resolving them.Until recently, the past was considered a reliable basis for predicting the future. As this is no longer the case, financial calculation and management models must take uncertainty into account. This affects the entire discipline of financial management, whether it is the valuation of goodwill in accounting, the estimation of capital costs in company valuation, or the strategic controlling of an international group of companies. There are three main challenges to be overcome: first, uncertainty must be integrated into traditional models, then uncertainty must be quantified, and lastly, potential developments must be modelled. This requires not only a deep understanding of the respective field, but also the ability to suitably adapt traditional modelsand techniques. This volume discusses these issues and offers new insights into how financial management will evolve in light of the current developments.

We are currently witnessing the emergence of a ¿third culture¿, driven by unprecedented developments that are changing the playing field. These include advances in AI, big data analysis and robotics. The traditional ¿two cultures¿ view (S. P. Snow) distinguishes between the sciences and the humanities. The wisdoms these two cultures offer are separated from each other, with little to no interaction or mutual comprehension. However, over the past two decades, and for the first time in human history, a new, third culture has appeared. This new culture, rooted in new technologies, not only pursues its own form of rationality but also supports advances in the original two cultures, deepening and expanding our individual and collective consciousness so that we can see more and do better. It will eventually give rise to new forms of consciousness based not on biochemical signals, but on copper wires and lithium chips. These new machine intelligences will change the world and force us to realise: we are no longer alone. The human species¿ position in the twenty-first century will be fundamentally redefined: not as a conductor leading the orchestra, but a single string player within it.
