Abstract
Corporate appraisal is an important information for the persons concerned in the corporation. This information is thought to be made according to the appraisal purpose. In this study, we regard the difference of appraisal policy by each purpose as the difference of the weight given to the finacial ratios, and quantitatively analyze the ralation between plural purposes. First we collect the corporate appraisal data, obtained by financial ratios, for each purpose, and estimate the parameter by multiregression analysis. Then we culculate K-L information content as the distance between purposes, and also show the position of each appraisal purpose by dimensional scaling.
