Summary/Abstract: The financial management theory prefers the changeover from traditional measures of company performance to so-called new indicators. Value criteria have special positions in this group, especially economic value added (EVA) and market value added (MVA). These criteria fit traditional microeconomic views of firm decision making process the best because they strictly illustrate its main goal - economic profit maximizing. That is why these methods also affect specialized financial disciplines, i. e. enterprise assessment. Within theoretical procedures EVA is considered to be one of the best and most precise techniques. Even so practical application of EVA in assessment is quite rare because of its practical problems and complications.
