We synthesize literature and courtroom opinions related to non-fraud forensic accounting topics to better understand the nature and extent of relevant works, and to highlight areas where there is a need for future research. We approach this by summarizing literature from accounting, forensic economics, valuation, and legal sources; where appropriate, we supplement with courtroom opinions. We concentrate on non-fraud forensic accounting issues relevant to academics and practitioners in several areas, including the forensic accountant as the expert witness, valuation, individual damages (sometimes referred to as forensic economics), and commercial damages: lost profits. We discuss prior research findings and court opinions related to qualifications, work product, and communication skills of forensic accountants required to complete the work to a reasonable degree of scientific certainty. We close with a discussion of emerging technologies and the need for critical examination of how such technologies are likely to impact forensic accounting.
