Measurement of formal harmonisation in accounting: an exploratory study

Article Abstract:

More focus has been placed on international accounting harmonisation as co-operation between countries increases. Harmonisation can be studied in relation to regulations and to practices. A methodology has been developed for measuring formal harmonisation and identifying areas where there is formal disharmony. This is useful for projects such as harmonisation in the European Union. The reasons for different practices can also be identified in order to assess how haronisation can be achieved.
