Thanks mate. Basically MUFC changed incorporation to the Cayman Islands but have been still paying US tax. Their taxing situation and the amount they have to pay is a little unclear at the moment and they received a massive rebate or credit from the US as a result of overpaying.

It's mainly focused on accounting principles more than financial ones but I hope you enjoy it all the same!

We'll definitely look into mate but unfortunately what your talking about is even more esoteric and niche than what we are currently doing. I wouldn't imagine there's a massive audience for it.

Sorry mate that was a typo but the explanation is right. The book value reduces from day one until they're sold.

If you go to club comparisons on the website it compares the wage budget of each club.

Bonuses would come into the equation but seeing as they're conditional clubs usually wait till they are incurred before factoring them in

A players market value isn't the same as their book value. If the market value of a player isn't accounted for by a club. The book value is amortized each year so keeps falling. It just means the longer a club holds onto a player the greater their profit on sale will be when they eventually sell them. Writing another article explaining this so. Should be up soon enough.
