Secondly, Accounting adjustments do not necessarily lead to earnings improvement. This is because they are usually estimated, and therefore they could exceed the actuals, which implies that the alignment could either lead to losses or profits. Ford’s company should set standards that will ensure consistency to ensure the change of values is not that ambiguous. Ford company financial results of 2003 to those of 2002 differ whereby 2003 three quarters the earnings were %1.2 billion, revenue of118.4 billion, and an income before tax of 2.2 billion dollars while that of 2002 was $850 million, revenue of$121 billion…
