This format should allow managers, investors, regulators, and students to aggregate, compare and analyze financial information. This study explores an XBRL-based visualization tool that maps the organization of financial statements captured in the XBRL formalism into a graphical representation that organizes, depicts, and animates financial data. We show that our tool integrates and presents profitability, liquidity, financing, and market value data in a manner recognizable to business students. Our findings suggest the promise of XBRL-based visualization tools both in helping students grasp basic accounting concepts and in facilitating financial analysis in general.10aAccounting10aBIS1 aMarshall, Byron1 aMortenson, Kristian1 aBourne, Amy1 aPrice, Kevin uhttp://www.uhu.es/ijdar/10.4192/1577-8517-v10_2.pdf00571nas a2200169 4500008004100000245006000041210006000101260002200161653001500183653000800198100002000206700002400226700001600250700001700266700002100283856009700304 2009 eng d00aDelivering Value Beyond Efficiency with Visualized XBRL0 aDelivering Value Beyond Efficiency with Visualized XBRL aPhoenix, AZc200910aAccounting10aBIS1 aMarshall, Byron1 aMortenson, Kristian1 aBourne, Amy1 aPrice, Kevin1 aMarshall, Andrew u/biblio/delivering-value-beyond-efficiency-visualized-xbrl-101878nas a2200181 4500008004100000245008700041210006900128260002300197520123400220653001501454653000801469100002001477700002401497700001601521700001701537700002101554856012101575 2009 eng d00aVisualizing basic accounting flows: does XBRL + model + animation = understanding?0 aVisualizing basic accounting flows does XBRL model animation und aNew York, NYc20093 aThe usefulness of XBRL (eXtensible Business Reporting Language) in facilitating efficient data sharing is clear, but widespread use of XBRL also promises to support more effective analysis processes. Representing traditional financial statements in this electronic and interoperable format should allow managers, investors, regulators, and importantly students to aggregate, compare and analyze financial information. Processing such data requires an understanding of the underlying paradigms embedded in consolidated sets of financial statements. This work explores the feasibility and effectiveness of an XBRL-based visualization tool, presenting an organizational framework, mapping that framework to financial statements and the XBRL formalism, and demonstrating a visual representation that organizes, depicts, and animates financial data. We show that our tool integrates and presents profitability, liquidity, financing, and market value data in a manner recognizable to business students in introductory financial accounting classes. This preliminary finding suggests the promise of XBRL-based visualization tools both in helping students grasp basic accounting concepts and in facilitating financial analysis in general.10aAccounting10aBIS1 aMarshall, Byron1 aMortenson, Kristian1 aBourne, Amy1 aPrice, Kevin1 aMarshall, Andrew u/biblio/visualizing-basic-accounting-flows-does-xbrl-model-animation-understanding-400384nas a2200109 4500008004100000245004500041210004400086260002100130653001500151100002400166856008400190 2009 eng d00aXBRL: Visualizing Basic Accounting Flows0 aXBRL Visualizing Basic Accounting Flows aN.Y., N.Y.c200910aAccounting1 aMortenson, Kristian u/biblio/xbrl-visualizing-basic-accounting-flows
