Discusión crítica sobre la valoración de los activos mas relevanters en los clubes de futbol: Visión de auditores
Critical discussion regarding the valuation of the most relevant assets in soccer clubs: Auditors´insights
Resumen
Este artículo demuestra que, según las NIC/NIIF actuales, los activos más relevantes de todos los clubes de fútbol profesionales al final del año, los denominados "Derechos de Traspaso de Jugadores", pueden medirse y divulgarse a su valor razonable. La investigación se basó en un enfoque de triangulación. En primer lugar, se realizó una discusión teórica sobre la viabilidad de la contabilidad a valor razonable en comparación con la contabilidad a coste histórico, que actualmente se aplica. En segundo lugar, se analizó en profundidad una técnica de evaluación extracontable, utilizada esporádicamente por los clubes. En tercer lugar, se realizó un trabajo de investigación cualitativa, que incluyó encuestas y entrevistas a auditores externos de estados financieros de los clubes de fútbol. El trabajo realizado evidencia cuán poco fiables son las cifras de estos intangibles de los clubes de fútbol en sus estados financieros y, en consecuencia, la falta de transparencia generada al aplicar la inadecuada valoración contable actual. También evidencia la necesidad de aplicar una técnica de valoración externa válida y factible a valor razonable, que cumpla con los requisitos de las NIIF. Como contribución novedosa, se sugiere una propuesta de valoración y divulgación, que podría resolver esta deficiencia contable actual, ayudando no sólo al proceso de toma de decisiones de las partes interesadas en los clubes de fútbol, sino también a la UEFA en su regulación "Financial Fair Play"1 para controlar las finanzas de los clubes.
