This module uses fundamental data of American Balanced to approximate the value of its Beneish M Score. American Balanced M Score tells investors if the company management is likely to be manipulating earnings. The score is calculated using eight financial indicators that are adjusted by a specific multiplier. Please note, the M Score is a probabilistic model and cannot detect companies that manipulate their earnings with 100% accuracy.

Also, note that the market value of any mutual fund could be closely tied with the direction of predictive economic indicators such as signals in bureau of economic analysis.
  
At this time, American Balanced's M Score is inapplicable. The earnings manipulation may begin if American Balanced's top management creates an artificial sense of financial success, forcing the stock price to be traded at a high price-earnings multiple than it should be. In general, excessive earnings management by American Balanced executives may lead to removing some of the operating profits from subsequent periods to inflate earnings in the following periods. This way, the manipulation of American Balanced's earnings can lead to misrepresentations of actual financial condition, taking the otherwise loyal stakeholders on to the path of questionable ethical practices and plain fraud.
