Abstract
Market   Value   Added   is   important   measure   in   firms' performance measurement. The main goal of this paper is to review the relationship between MVA and some measures of performance measurement such as EVA~ROA, SRE, PBT/S and OCF. Therefore 189 sample firms that their required data for a 10 years period (1376-1385) was available are selected. Then the related data to 5 independent variables are reviewed. MVA is calculated as dependent variable too.  The simple regression model is used to examine the hypothesis. The method of the regression model is panel data regression. Signification of models is examined by T and F statistics. The conclusions indicate that there are significant relationships between MVA and EVA, ROA, SRE and OCF. The conclusions account for that EVA is the best measure to explain the changes in MVA.
