Case | HBS Case Collection | 1996 (Revised from original version)
by Krishna G. Palepu and Paul M. Healy
The case series examines the role of financial reporting and corporate finance policies as vehicles for communication between managers and outside investors. This case describes management's concern that the company's stock is undervalued because analysts viewed the company's accounting as aggressive. Students are asked to advise CUC's management on ways to improve investor confidence.
