Software's newsletters on
Enron and WorldCom are prominently featured in Bonnie Biafore's book
Online Investing Hacks.
From an
Amazon.com review of Online Investing Hacks:
"I worked at Enron from 1998 through 2001,
and spent plenty of time during that dot.com era following my stock
portfolio. I watched my Enron stock value go from incredible value to a
point where it cost more to sell the stock than it was worth...This book
would have been a lifesaver if I had read and paid attention to it a few
years ago...Spot Hanky Panky with Cash Flow Analysis (using Enron
as an example) would have literally saved me hundreds of thousands of
dollars had I known about it."Thomas

Securities analysts charge tens of thousands of
dollars for this sort of thing, but you can do the same thing
. . .
It will save you hundreds of hours of drudge work yearly.

[SPREDGAR] just
takes the raw data and puts it into an easy to use, easy to understand
form. And I really would urge you to take a look at it. It's a terrific
program.

saved my neck. I had a speech to do using a bunch of financial ratios
and I was out of time. Then I discovered SPREDGAR and 'bam'I
was done before I knew it.

Dual cash flow is not a common calculation, but at least one Excel
spreadsheet add-in can calculate the value. Spredgar
Software offers a very useful and powerful tool for financial ratio
analysis
. . .The program provides a wide range of
financial ratios, tables, and graphs analyzing profitability, financial
leverage, liquidity, and valuation levels. A tabular report can automatically
produce a dual cash flow report that tracks changes in dual cash flow
components over time.
