Sustainability accounting by presenting a holistic view of the organization activities and providing a balanced view of its economic, social and environmental impacts and benefits, and by presenting sustainability reporting seeks to encourage business units and investors to maintain the mutual benefits of all stakeholders in the society. Given the criticisms that researchers have had about the efficiency of sustainability reporting, the purpose of this article is to develop sustainability accounting by presenting a new model that can address the challenges in sustainability accounting and can be a good alternative to sustainability reporting. Social value-added is the sum of tangible and intangible values created and added to society by a business through technological development/change and the knowledge of its manufacturing engineers and managers. In this research, to test the proposed social value added model, Nano engine oil was selected randomly and the test was performed using paired comparison of data. The results of the research showed that social value-added statement can be an appropriate report for evaluating the economic, social and environmental performance of a business entity. Nano engine oil has a social value added of 3797.2 percent compared to regular engine oil, that 15 percent of it is related to tangible value added and 85 percent to intangible value added. 

The evaluation of corporate social responsibility has gained significance over the past decade due to the importance of natural and environmental resources. Many studies have been conducted on corporate social responsibility and the presented related models, which add to the importance of this report. However, in addition to its significance, many researchers also believe that corporate social responsibility evaluation models lack the necessary efficiency due to different interpretations, lack of transparency, and abuse of some companies in order to deceive and commit fraud. Therefore, the aim of this research is to present a model to evaluate corporate social responsibility using value added, which can be a suitable criterion in evaluating the social responsibility of commercial entities. In the present study, first, a model was developed based on corporate social responsibility, and then, to test the model, social value added of Nano motor oil was studied as a case study. In this study, data was analyzed through pairwise comparison. The findings of the study conducted on the social value added of Nano motor-oil indicate economic efficiency of 40%, product social efficiency of 8%, and depicts a 38-times increase in social value added compared with its economic added value. Thus, Nano-engine oil producing companies are located on the corporate social responsible category and the corporate social responsibility in this product is on the third level (strong) that indicates the product’s efficiency in the community and can be a suitable incentive for all business organizations to pay more attention to their products’ environmental and social impacts.
