摘要：

This article argues that the debate between historical cost basis and fair value basis of accounting also rests upon one central question: what kinds of output do users want out of the accounting system: metrics to measure the long-run profit-generating ability or metrics to capture the short-run fluctuation in the estimated values of net assets?
