Stephanie Baskill, an unemployed accounting clerk, lives one block from Cleaver Manufacturing Company. While walking her dog last year, she noticed some ERP manuals in the dumpsters. Curious, she took the manuals home with her. She found that the documentation in the manual was dated 2 months previous, so she thought that the information must be fairly current. Over the next month,Stephanie continued to collect all types of manuals from the dumpster during her dog-walking excursions.

- Yesterday, Extensive Enterprise Inc. released its 2018 annual report on the company’s website. While reading the report for his boss, Rafael came across several terms about which he was unsure. He leaned around the wall of his cubicle and asked his colleague, Asha, for help. RAFAEL: Asha, do you have a second to help me with my reading of Extensive’s annual report? I’ve come across several unfamiliar terms, and I want to make sure that I’m interpreting the data and management’s comments correctly. For example, one of the footnotes to the financial statements uses “the book value of Extensive’s shares,” and then in another place, it uses “Economic Value Added.” I’ve never encountered those terms before. Do you know what they’re talking about? ASHA: Yes, I do. Let’s see if we can make these terms make sense by talking through their meaning and their significance to investors.
