This document discusses various approaches for measuring shareholder value creation. It describes traditional measures like earnings per share, return on investment, and return on equity. It then explains modern measures like market value added (MVA), market to book value (EVA), economic value added (EVA), and total shareholder return (TSR). MVA is defined as the difference between a firm's current market value and book value. Market to book value is the ratio of share price to book value per share. EVA is a firm's economic profit above the required return for shareholders. TSR accounts for dividends received during the period of stock ownership.
