Abstract
The application of human resource accounting requires the measurement of the firm's investment in recruitment, selection, training and development. Our objectives in this article are firstly to familiarise readers with the methods proposed in the literature by which this measurement may be achieved, and secondly, to consider the implications of this recent development in financial reporting for the personnel function. The significant effect on annual accounts is demonstrated in a research application of human resource valuation in the Football League.Keywords
