Abstract

See full text

Period economic earnings performance of a business enterprise is calculated using only those revenues generated by the enterprise's stipulated commercial activities and the expenses realized, directly or indirectly, in the generation of those revenues. Income and expenses generated by activities of the enterprise that are extraneous to the stipulated commercial activities are excluded from the calculation of the enterprise's period earnings. According to one implementation, earnings performance is calculated according to the present invention by starting with the enterprise's as-reported earnings, calculated in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, and making adjustments to the as-reported earnings to include certain specified items that were not included in the as-reported earnings and to exclude other specified items that were included in the as-reported earnings.
