DER HOMO OECONOMICUS

Why it doesn't exist
Preißler, Peter, 144 pages

From Homo economicus to Homo emotionalis
Does Homo economicus really exist, have you already met him or is he just a mythical creature of specialist literature?
Homo economicus refers to someone who aligns his actions and strivings with rational-economic goals and makes decisions with the greatest possible benefit and efficiency. In the course of his professional life, the author, Peter R. Preißler, repeatedly witnessed events that in no way corresponded to the image of homo economicus conveyed to him during his studies.
In this book, the author looks back on a long successful career in management functions, as a university professor and management consultant. From "usher" and apprentice to sought-after contact person for executives at the highest hierarchical levels.
His memories of many encounters, conversations and consultations flow into this book, not always free of irony and subtle ridicule. It can be stated that it is not far from homo economicus to homo emotionalis. This book shows how, despite all emotions, decision-making situations are seen more clearly and smart decisions are possible. How this works is shown by a wealth of concrete aids for entrepreneurial practice.

Books on the subject: International Accounting

IFRS lexicon

Preißler G., Figlin G., 2009, 250 pages

The IFRS lexicon explains common terms of international accounting that are relevant to daily accounting practice. The current draft law on the modernisation of accounting law (BiLMoG) and the associated internationalisation of the German Trade Code (HGB) also force small and medium-sized enterprises to deal with international accounting. For this reason, the lexicon focuses on terms and situations that are typical and essential for small and medium-sized enterprises. It serves managing directors and employees from the fields of controlling as well as finance and accounting, as well as students of the bachelor's and master's degree programmes as a quick and uncomplicated reference work.

Principle-based accounting in accordance with IAS/ IFRS

Preißler G., Munich 2005, 310 pages

The accounting standards according to IAS/IFRS have become considerably more topical with their adoption into European law in 2003 and with the legal obligations to prepare consolidated financial statements in accordance with IAS/IFRS, which came into force on 1 January 2005 and apply to all European capital market-oriented companies. In contrast to the US GAAP, which is criticised in the current discussion as rule-based and therefore abuse-prone accounting in the context of the accounting scandals surrounding WordCom, Enron and others, IAS/IFRS are considered to be a principle-based accounting. Due to the principle-based approach, the financial statements and audits should not be based on the following of case-by-case rules rather than the responsible "professional judgement" of the financial statements and auditors, which is in the sense of the actual "spirit of the rules". This work analyses the supposed principle based of IAS/IFRS on a broad basis.

Content: Is accounting according to IAS/IFRS a principles-based accounting? – Are the principles of IAS/IFRS systematic and concretizable? – Do the principles of IAS/IFRS help to protect against accounting policy abuses? (Peter Lange Verlag)
