After Enron first describes the conditions that led to the collapse
of Enron and other corporate scandals and the concerns that these
developments raised among the public, the press, and political
officials. The book then describes and evaluates the initial
private and public responses to these developments and concludes
that most of these responses were unnecessary, harmful, or
inadequate. There are four major lessons learned during the
post-Enron scandal era: Don't count too much on financial
accounting. Don't count too much on auditing. The tax system is an
important part of the problem. The rules of corporate governance do
not adequately serve the interests of general shareholders. After
Enron addresses the major lessons for public policy affecting
accounting, auditing, taxation, and corporate government. It
proposes a set of policy changes to address the lessons learned
from the Enron scandal. The first major set of proposed changes
would delegate the authority to establish and monitor accounting
and disclosure standards to each stock exchange. A second major
proposal would replace the corporate income tax with a cash flow
tax. And a final set of proposed policy changes would replace the
rules of corporate governance that are now biased against the
interest of the general shareholders. The most distinctive feature
of the book is that the major proposed policy changes would address
the problems illustrated by the corporate scandals by reducing and
focusing the role of government.
