Financial statement manipulation can be divided into two separate, but often blurred, categories : earnings manipulation(what some would clearly label as fraud) and earnings management. The distinguishing characteristic between manipulation and management is somewhat subjective but is generally seen as the technique(s) used in preparing financial information that is either misleading or inaccurate. The difference can rest in whether the technique used might fall within or outside of the requirements and recommendations provided by Generally Accepted Accounting Principles(GAAP). 3, record 11, English, - earnings%20manipulation
