merge.statement: Merge two financial statements

In bergant/finstr: Financial Statements in R

Description

Merge two statements from different time periods.

Usage

## S3 method for class 'statement'
merge(x, y, replace_na = TRUE, ...)

Arguments

x	statement object
y	statement object
replace_na	(boolean) replace NAs with zeros
...	further arguments passed to or from other methods

Details

Since statements are basically data.frames the functions are similar. Except:

• new statement elements are allways union of input elements, if taxonomy changes new and old elements are visible in all periods

• missing values are set to 0 not to NA as merge would normally do

• hierarchy is merged from both statements hierarchies

• rows are treated as duplicated based on endDate and the row of x is allways considered as duplicate (so y should allways be the later statement)

Value

statement object
