Product Description

Product Description
Comparative International Accounting takes a comprehensive look at the international dimensions of financial accounting and reporting. Whilst the majority of chapters have been written by the book’s two main authors, the text includes several contributions from a diverse group of international experts, all of whom are leading practitioners or academics.
The text is split into four distinct parts with Part 1 giving an overview of international differences in accounting and financial reporting. Part 2 examines individual countries and includes country studies of UK, US, The Netherlands, France, Germany, Japan, Australia, Canada, Singapore, Scandinavia, Central and Eastern Europe and China. Part 3 looks at issues in financial accounting and the final part looks at analysis and management issues.

Most of the chapters are written by the two main authors, but there are several contributions from leading international practitioners and academics.Part I gives an overview of the causes and nature of international differences in accounting and financial reporting.Part II examines individual countries and includes studies of the UK, the US, the Netherlands, France, Germany, Japan, Australia, Canada, Singapore, Scandinavia, Italy, Spain, South Korea, Central and eastern Europe and China. Part III takes a comparative look at four major financial reporting issues.  Part IV analyses four issues of international analysis and management.The text has been thoroughly revised and updated. It retains the structure of the last edition but incorporates the following new features:
  • New chapters on International Accounting Standards (Chapter 6) and Liabilities (Chapter 15).

  • Each country chapter contains a list of differences from international standards.
  • Learning objectives have been introduced at the start of each chapter and extra questions have been added to several chapters.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent guide to international accounting, 4 Jun 2002
Comparative International Accounting deserves no less than 5 stars. Not only does it provide a detailed account of differences in financial reporting and classification of the various accounting systems, it also covers topics such as foreign currency translation, segmental reporting, international auditing etc.

Apart from the American, British and other well-known systems of accounting, the book contains chapters on the less known Eastern European, Chinese and Scandinavian accounting practices.

Despite the fact that it goes into a high level of detail, it is extremely easy to read. It contains up-to-date information on most of the recent developments in accounting systems around the world as well as the latest on international harmonisation of accounting.

Highly recommended.
