9. Value added to a firm dy Tools A-Z Finandal statements reflect only book values of the data that analysts use to evaluate a company's performance. To determine if a firm's earnings, after taxes but before the payment of interest and dividends, are sufficient to compensate both the firm's bondholders and shareholders, Stern Stewart Management Services developed an analytical technique called economic value added (EVA). EVA effectively measures the amount of shareholder wealth that the firm's management has added to the value of the firm during a period of time. If EVA is positive, then management has added value, while a negative value indicates that the firm's managers reduced the firm's value and shareholders might have earned more value by investing in some other investment with the same level of risk Tips Tips Consider this case: Last year, Jackson Tires reported net sales of $40,000,000 and total operating costs (induding depreciation) of $52,000,000.
