Abstract

Effective communication of information using graphs depends on the graphs being constructed so that they faithfully represent the underlying data. If certain principles of graphic construction are violated, graphs will be distorted and may mislead users of financial statements. The paper develops and tests hypotheses concerning the relationship between the use and construction of graphs in the annual reports of companies and the performance of those companies.
