German term or phrase: SV-Korrektur
Ich übersetze Sachkonto-Auszüge eines Unternehmens und stoße in den Auszügen auf verschiedene Abkürzungen, die mir leider nicht geläufig sind.

Nachdem fast ausschließlich Sollbeträge auf diesen Konten erscheinen, kommt eine Spalte die SV-Korrektur als Verwendungszweck hat und eine Haben-Summe aufweist.

Was ist SV-Korrektur? Ich benötige die Deutsche Bedeutung und die Engl. Übersetzung.

Vielen Dank

agree  Veronika McLaren: even though Saldovortrag makes sense, the exact expression (SV-Korrektur) is used on http://www.sozialversicherung.at/portal/index.html

Shareholder Value


Explanation:
For a publicly traded company, Shareholder Value (SV) is the part of its capitalization that is equity as opposed to long-term debt. In the case of only one type of stock, this would roughly be the number of outstanding shares times current shareprice. Things like dividends augment shareholder value while issuing of shares (stock options) lower it. This Shareholder value added should be compared to average/required increase in value, aka cost of capital.

For a privately held company, the value of the firm after debt must be estimated using one of several valuation methods, s.a. discounted cash flow or others.

Shareholder value - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia - Shareholder value is a business buzz term, which implies that the ultimate measure of a company's success is to enrich shareholders. ...
