His research tackles measurement challenges in accounting and economic theories, probing the semantics of accounting numbers, rationales for cost allocation methods, and implications of applying accounting values to pricing in disequilibrium economic models. Key focus areas encompass statistical process-based costing and valuation, alongside value-based economics and integrated reporting.
