55. A computer-implemented method for processing electronically tagged financial data in XBRL format, the method being executed by one or more processors configured to perform a plurality of operations comprising: selecting a plurality of XBRL files, the XBRL files including at least electronically tagged financial data which adhere to different taxonomies that are associated with the same type of content; calculating at least a first common analysis measure for comparison and analysis of electronically tagged financial data from a first file which adheres to a first taxonomy and corresponding electronically tagged financial data from a second file which adheres to a second taxonomy that are associated with the same type of content, including (i) a first formula having components based on the first taxonomy for calculating the first common analysis measure from electronically tagged financial data from the first file, and (ii) a second formula having components based on the second taxonomy for calculating the first common analysis measure from electronically tagged financial data from the second file, wherein the first common analysis measure comprises an analytical metric not present in either the first file or the second file; and presenting information associated with the selected XBRL file, the presented information including data elements and a calculation of at least the first common analysis measure automatically formatted according to presentation information associated with the selected XBRL files so as to provide simultaneous line-by-line display of at least the first calculated common analysis measures that correspond to different taxonomies and another calculated common analysis measure.
