This definition is not only quite different from the one in the accounting standards, but also difficult to explain in the perspective of asset valuation. This paper focuses on the "Fair Value" in order to make its relevant meaning and application scope clear in accounting and asset valuation respectively. The discussion helps to avoid the abuse and the misunderstanding of "Fair Value" for the sake of vague definition.展开更多

By using the M&A samples ofchina's listed companies, this paper argues that, as the pricing basis, the appraisal value is better than the book value. But the transaction types will influence the function of the appraisal value as the pricing basis. The importance of appraisal value in the pricing of M&A is significantly different in different types of transactions.展开更多

Specifically, the authors consider one risk-free asset, one risky asset and one liability, where the risky asset's price is governed by an exponential Levy process, the liability evolves according to a Levy process, and there exists a correlation between the risky asset and the liability. Two models are established. One is the benchmark model and the other is the mean-variance model. The benchmark model is solved by employing the stochastic dynamic programming and its results are extended to the mean-variance model by adopting the duality theory. Closed-form solutions of the two models are derived.展开更多
