An income determination model for income sharing investment companies (Ph.D. Dissertation)
This dissertation presents an income determination model for income-sharing investment companies in Islamic countries, and utilizes a literature review of economic and accounting theories. Techniques used for measurement, allocation, and distribution of income were obtained in a field study of four income sharing firms. Investment institutions that are comparable to income sharing firms were also studied, and mutual funds and real estate investment trusts were reviewed to illustrate some of the problems facing income sharing firms.
