CD Sales Increasing; File Sharing
Increasing -- Whose Assumptions Are
Wrong? 01/06/2005 05:24 PM
Even while studies have shown that file sharing has been growing lately, reports are out saying that CD sales are actually up. This isn't all that surprising, for a variety of reasons. First, the RIAA had been manipul ating the numbers all along, and after a point, the reality had to hit. Second, the economy has been picking up. And, as many people pointed out, the economic downturn was probably the biggest factor in music sales declines. Of course, the industry is going to spin this as if their lawsuits "worked," when all the evidence shows that there's actually more file sharing happening now than before. However, the recording industry isn't known for actually looking at evidence.

Fun With Accounting: How Damaging Will
Stock Option Expenses Be? 06/02/2004 02:41 AM
This argument has been going on for years, and it seems like both sides are exaggerating either the need for or the damage that will be done by forcing Silicon Valley companies to expense stock options. In many cases, those in favor of the plan seem to believe that stock options are inevitably linked to fraud - which isn't true at all. While stock options can be linked to fraud, just expensing them doesn't change that. Most of the information (minus the somewhat arbitrary valuation) is already public information - it's just not as clearly noted in the financial statements. Thus, folks on Wall Street (and any savvy investor) should already know the impact of stock options on companies. Really, all this does, is shift some numbers around in the books - but doesn't impact real cash at all. For the people who the shifted numbers will really impact, the alternative calculations have already been done. The one shift may be that, due to the importance of "profitability," some companies may cut back on options because it appears to hurt their bottom line (despite having no impact whatsoever on cash flow). All in all, the big debate over stock options seems like a lot of talk over a very small issue. That said, I support the idea that we keep things as is - as the plan to expense them seems unlikely to correct any of the real problems with the system and seems more likely to create an additional accounting headache.
